a S near as government stats
~ tics, parental recollections and
mural tracings show, James
Thorpe, prominent citizen and ath-
lete extraordinary, made his Off
cial entry into the tribal life of the
Sac and Fox some % years ago,
on their reservation in the vicin-
ity of Sprague, Okla. Other than
this information, there is little to
show that Jim gave any promise
in his boyhood and youth OF de-
veloping into world wide charac-
ter.
On the other hand, it appears
that he exhibited much the same
proclivities, for robbing birds
nests, treating the tribal CANNES
to an occasional touch of high life,
and cutting up high jinks generally,
as were characteristic of his COM
panions.
Jeems has no doubt been the source
Of more comment than any other
one man before the public today,
not even excepting the great 7. r.
himself for the past few weeks, at
least! In fact. since the time when
some energetic scribe stumbled onto
the information that the said
Jeems had received pecuniary re-
wards for his ability to make a
baseball perform puzzling antics
before the bewildered gaze Of OPP
posing batsmen.
In fact, he has attained the en-
viable position in which that great
horde Of 81 Knew Him When" per-
formers apologies to O. B. Keeler)
suddenly issues forth with re-
counts of his past performances.
THERE is, however, in Atlanta,
one man who is qualified to pass
around the dope, from first hand
information. Charlie Wahoo. well
known in Atlanta sport circles, is a
good personal friend Of the big ath-
letic marvel and, If closely ques-
toned, will admit that he has been
a participant in some of Jims es-
capades.
Thorpe entered Carlisle while
WahOo was still in school, and sew
eral of his stunts still stick in the
latter's memory. One of the most
interesting took place on the oc-
casion of a visit of the Indian foot
ball team to Philadelphia for one
of its annual games. At that time
Thorpe's prowess was not nearly so
well known as at present, and he
WIS not a regular on the team.
However, he was scheduled to play
a half in the game.

BALKAN ARMIES CAPTURE SCUTAR1
Juneau to Get
 Two More Stores

Juneau is slated for two more high class stores. G. P. Goggin, of Nome, and George Nelson, formerly of Nome but more recently of Iditarod, will be- come Juneau merchants. Mir. Goggin will establish furniture and general house furnishing establishment here, and Mir. Nelson a jewelry store. Both men have been visiting Juneau for several weeks studying conditions with the purpose in view of locating if they liked the outlook. The result of their investigations has been yer diet of approval. They think Juneau one of the coming cities of the North west, and will come here to enter bus mess some time this summer.
 Mir. Goggin has been one of the lead. ing business men and citizens of Nome for more than a dozen years. He has had one of the largest furniture and stores in the North at Nome, where he has conducted very prosperous business. He will return to Nome on one of the first boats, and will come later in the summer to Juneau with a large stock of goods. He left last night on the Princess So phia for Seattle.
 Mir. Nelson was resident of Nome for many years, where he was em- ployed in a leading manufacturing jew elry establishment. Two years ago he took stock of goods to Iditarod where he has been in business for himself since that time. He, too went South on the Princess Sophia He will return to Juneau with a stock of goods as soon as he can secure a suitable location.

Indian
 Bill Coming Up

Among the special orders for to- morrow in the House of Representa- tives is the consideration of Repre-. sentative Thomas Gaffney's House Bill No. s, amending the Alaska code. re. ducing the crime of selling or furn- ishing liquor to Indians from a fel- ony to misdemeanor and making h. dians that soliciG others to sell or furn. sh them liquor guilty of crime as well as the person who furnishes the liquor. The bill was reported from the House committee on judiciary and federal re- lations yesterday with the recommen- dation that it do pass, and will come up for final vote under the rules to- morrow.
 As introduced the bill made no change in the enormity of the offense of providing liquor to Indians, and re. tained the provision as it now is in the code, making the crime felony. It was amended, however, in the com- mittee so as to reduce the crime to a misdemeanor. The amendment was offered by Representative Arthus G. Shoup.
 The bill, as recommended for pass. age, makes either the furnishing of liquor to Indians or the solicitation of it by them punishable with fine of from $12O to $500 or Imprisonment in jail for from SO to 25O days, or both fine and imprisonment, for the first offense. The penalty is doubled for offenses committed after the first one.

Senator ROden
 Talks To Students

Senator Henry Roden, of Iditarod addressed the students of the Juneau High School and the seventh and eighth grades yesterday, making for ty-fiye minute speech to them on the Alaskan school law, and amendments he thinks should be made to it.
 Senator Roden thinks the school law should be amended so that the school boards would be independent of the town councils in Alaska, He believes they should have a separate fund pro- vided for them, over which they would have sole jurisdiction, instead of hav- ing to ask the city council for money whenever they need it.
 He also advocates the extension of school privileges to communities where they have six or more school children instead of 20 or more as the law now provides. He said that last year there remained unused of the Alaska fund, $SO,OOO that could have been judic- iously expended in extending the school system to scores of Alaska chil. dren, that have not the opportunity to take even the grammar grades
 He favors a change in the law so that it will provide for a school super intendent for each of the Judicial Div isions, to have general charge of all schools within the division.
 The Iditarod statesman also took high ground against the placing of rev, enue received from the saloon license fees into the school fund He said that money taken from that source should be put in some other fund rath, CT than that it be expended for the payment of education for the youth of Alaska. He thought other avenues of taxation are available for education, al purposes and that they should be utilized.
 Before explaining his ideas of the changes we should have in our school laws, Senator Roden explained the laws as they exist to the students; the sources of the revenue for school main tenance, and the manner of admins, tering the laws.
