WILL use STORES
FOR SCHOOL ROOMS

Atlanta, August 27.-With the ap-
proach of September the Atlanta pub
lie school board is facing its annual
problem. 1t hasn't enough school
houses to take care of the city's pu-
pills. The present accommodations
are inadequate and oyercrowded, and
the unique expedient is being dis
cussed of renting private residences
and store rooms as temporary school
houses.
Some such action will have to be
taken unless the city simply fails ir
its duty toward the children, and a
special committee of members Of
the school board is now DISCUSSING
ways and means.
Atlanta has built a number of large
new school houses during the past SIX
months, but the increase has not kept
pace with the increase in child popu-
latfon.
The city census shows that Atlanta
is one of the foremost cities in the
country in proportion of children to
the total population.

A Bridge Across Gastineau

Mayor O'Connor has become interest ed in a project, in which he should cer- tainly haveThe support and assistance of the people of this section. The May or has decided that the time has ar- rived when a bridge should connect Douglas Island with the main land. For years this scheme has been talked of, aud some years ago a street railway company secured franchise in both Ju- neau and Douglas for terminals of a proposed line that was to cross the channel at a point just above the town of Juneau. But that was at a time when many of our large mineral de- posits were tied up with law suits, and during long period of stagnation. But now with the era of great improve ment aud progress has come again the demand for better things.
 Gastineau channel is navigable for large boats, only as far as Juneau. From there on the channel narrows down, and becames shallow until at the "bar," a few miles farther, low tides ex. pose a waste of sand that is filling in more every year. On the Douglas shore the government has completed road from the town to a point where tele. phone and electric wires have crossed for years, and here would be the most feasible location for a bridge. On the main land the government road extends on to the northwest, furnishing an out let for the settlers in that section.
 Mr. Hayes, who has charge of the government road work in Southeastern Alaska, says that the building of bridge at tbis point would not be as difficult as is generally supposed. Across a large part of the sand flat on. either side of the channel, piles could be driven with perfect safety. This done aud short suspension bridge would connect the two sides.
 Of course the building of this bridge can only be done with the consent and assistance of the government, and it behooves the people to join in mon ster petition for this assistance. The plan has the approval of the town councils of both Juneau and Douglas, and the sanction of all the big and little mining companies.

The Doom of the Outside Egg

The cackle of the Fairbanks hen in terested the department of agriculture to the extent of one line in the latest annual report on farming in Alaska The egg of the resident hen wins an other line in the report. Yet for some years past the live poultry business has been no insignificant item in the total business of Fairbanks, and this year the city enters the class of impor tant poultry centers. Within the week there has been an invasion of the camp by chickens, ducks and geese, swelling the poultry population by 5000, and there are thousands more coming The next annual Alaska agricultural report will not dare give them less than a paragraph.
 Six thousand cases of eggs are shipp- ed annually from Seattle to Fairbanks, states the report, and 9 per cent of these are hauled in over the ice in the winter at great expense. The next an nual report will have to revise these figures. Import 5000 laying hens into a camp the size of Fairbanks, and they are bound to eat hole into the impOr- tation of eggs. The Outside egg is destined to share the inevitable fate Of the Outside potato, and the time is not far distant when one will be as rare a sight m the camp as tbe Other.-The FRirb banks Times

There are two great navigable rivers in Alaska, viz, the Yukon, with it's tributaries, consisting approximately of 4,OOO miles of navigable waters, and the Kuskokwim and it's ailments, hay ing about 1000 miles or navigable water. Plainly the first step in rail road development is to connect those two river systems with tidewater on the south coast. This will require two separate lines of approximately 45O miles each. The construction of these two trunk lines with certain spurs to the coal fields is recommended in the report of the Alaska railway commis sion. The first railroad in the United States was the Baltimore & Ohio, built to connect the Ohio river with the Chesapeake bay. The Erie railroad was built to connect the Great Lakes with New York harbor. The first rail- road ln Alaska will serve a similar purpose; that is, to connect tidewater with the navigable waters of the h. tsrioE.

MacDonald Acquitted

Last Wednesday evening, less than two hours after having received the il nal instructions from Judge Brown, the jury in the case of the United States vs Joseph Macdonald, filed into the court room with verdict of not guilty. The verdict was greeted with a cheer that shook the very rafters. The Judge thanked the jurymen and dis missed them, and thus ended one of the most remarkable cases ever heard in Alaska.
 Douglas Island has been especially interested in the trial of this case, be- cause the tragedy which formed its ground work was enacted on the Is land. x. c. Jones, insane beyond a doubt, a victim of a religious halluci- nation, and a pupil in the school of a religious maniac who boasted from the pulpit that be was armed with pistol to enforce his methods, if necessary, was the cause of the trouble which brought about bis death at the hands of Joseph Mcdonald, then superin- teudent of the Treadwell niue, on May l4, 1902.
 Macdonald was exOnerated by the coroner's jury and by the federal grand jury. Theu followed the long period of years, during which Macdonald left Alaska, and 6ually drifted to Mexico. Then grand jury at Juneau returned an indictment charging him with mur- der and he was brought back to stand trial. Macdonald was thrown into prison and for time all efforts to se- cure his release on bail were fruitless. Then it was that the people of the North began to suggest ~fair play" Fortune had favored Macdonald and be was possessed of sufficient means to gather together the witnesses iD bis behalf, who, through the long interval, had scattered from the shores of the Atlantic to the stretches of the Arctic. But what, indeed, might become of man under similar circumstances, who was less fortunate, and without meansg He would simply be railroaded to the gallOws.
 So it is that the vast majority of tbe people of this section are pleased with the verdict, because they believe that the people of Alaska are fully capable of governing themselves, of netting out the proper punishment when the laws are violated, without the interference of those officers of the government who issue orders from afar of. Even witnesses on behalf of the government are now ready to say that the verdict was a righteous one.

Thousands of people suffer from bald

attendant discomfort. Yet their case is
not hopeless; the following simple home

and destroying the dandruff germ. 1t
will not make the hair greasy, and can
be put up by any druggist: Bay Rum,
ounces; Lavona de Composee, ounces;
Menthol Crystals, one-half drachm. If
you wish it perfumed add half to one
teaspoonful of To-Kalon Perfume, which
unites perfectly with the other ingredi-
ents. This preparation is highly recon-

and is absolutely harmless, as it con-
