Compulsory. School. Attendance

Not an arrest has been made in
Frederick in the enforcement of the
compulsory school attendance law.
Truant Officer Russell Stockman,
when seen alst night, showed a large
list OF truants who will likely be lined
up and marched to school in the next
day or so. Mr. Stockman is getting
"a line on the truants, their loafing
places and their general habits, be-
fore he launches into a wholesale raid.
Although the first census figures
showed that there was a comparative
ly small number OF truants in Fred
erick, Mr.. Stockman learned yester-
day that there is in reality quite a
large number. This is especially true
OF the negroes OF the city.
There was a rush for enrolment in
colored schools when the School
Board announced that the compulsory
school attendance law would be Gu
forced.
Daily Report OF Absentees.
In order to cover the city thorough
ly 1t is likely that Mr.. Stockman will
ask for a daily report of absentees.
That is the only possible way in
which | can know of children who are
not in school, he said. Il know only
a few OF truants by face and they
would be out of school a week with
out me knowing it unless the prin-
cipals notified me at once"
Grade Supervisor Harshman, who is
the county truant officer, has not
made any arrests. The officers are
depending on today's meeting of the
Frederick County School Commission
ers when final plans will be made

Systematic Work,

Captain Lamont is mechanical en-
gineer Last evening he showed
statements from the various plants,
with which he has been connected. He
has in his possession case of IN
struments, used in his former work,
valued at about $3.50.
The work in the city is undoubted-
ly being carried on in a systematic
manner. Captain Lamont requires re-
ceipts to be given to each and every
one of his workers. None are auth
orized to collect for this work unless
they have certificate signed by him
self. The workers are credited with
all contributions sent into the local
office.

Receipts Are Reruired.

Receipts are required from those
who have received aid from the Am

system is put into practice in making
reports to the national association
Receipts end entries in books wer4

Of Captain Lamont
According to him Frederick does
not encourage the work Of the 24so-
cation. Yet in spite Of this there arc
plenty of subjects for aid IN the city.

Thanksgiving Dinner for the Poor

THANKSGIVING Dinner LOT Inc EOcr
If the public co-operates the poor
of Frederick will be given Thanks
giving dinner this year by the Ameri-
can Rescue Workers. Captain Waiter
G. Lamont, in charge of the work in
Frederick, said yesterday evening
that it was his intention to provide
for the poor and needy of Frederick if
funds permitted He declared that the
extent of this dinner would be con
trolled entirely by the amount of the
contributions.
Tentative plans have been drafted
by the Captain for a Christmas din
ner. Those in charge of the branch
in Frederick have been making a
thorough canvass for funds to finance
both the Thanksgiving and Christmas
dinners, but without any very encouT-
aging results.
To Establish Soup Kitchen.
During the winter months of the
year Captain Lamont will establish a
soup kitchen. Phe plans for this feat
ure have only been partially arranged,
yet it is believed that such a depart
ment can be secured in the city 10

Accounts of the Captain showed last

SEATTLE-The Times says that the drys now have chance of win ming. while the Associated Press pre- diets the state will go wet by 1000 or more. Later returns show a close vote between vets and drys with the latter claiming.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-There was big crowd out last night to witness the bout between Freddie Welsh and Ad Wolgast. Tn the ninth round Wolgast claimed that the small bone in his right arm had been broken. The decision was then given to Welsh.
 SEATTLE, Nov 2.-For some weeks past rumors have been afloat that all was not harmonious between Ole Dickenson, president of the White Pass & Yukon Railroad, and the directors. They have not been satisfied with his management of the property, and today announcement was made that President Dickeson would resign his position, effective January 1st next. Many have ex. pected this termination of an extravagant and wild policy.
The Chitina leader., 1914-11-03
Conrad J. Miller, who arrived from

Conrad J. Miller, who arrived from the Chitina yesterday, will return with drilling outfit as soon as the freezeup occurs, for more thorough
 prospecting of several claims on
 Kyagana creek located by Chas. veets and himself. This creek is a
 tributary of the Chitina, entering the
 latter about 80 miles south uf
 Mccarthy. It is about 30 miles long
 and MT. Miller stated that he and his
 partner obtained good bar prospects from it's mouth to it's head.
 We got as high as cents to a
 pan at not more than a foot in depth
 and didn't get skunked anywhere, ," he said. We put in two drains, one
 at the mouth of the creek and the other at the head, but could not get deeper than II feet because of water and did not reach bedrock. The deepest hole we were able to sink was IT feet and we found gold in every foot of the gravel.''
 MT. Miller has been in the district
 since May, having gone there from
 the Shushanna. MT. Veets is an old
 timer in that section; he has spent
 seven years in the interior, but has
 not been able to find what is con-
 sidered good pay as he could not
 reach bedrock because of water. Mr.
 Miller advises prospectors not to at tempt to reach this district until
 after the freeZeup and then to take supplies for six months and also pumps to insure reaching bedrock
 Several streams difficult to ford are to be crossed, but travel will be. easy. he says, after ice is solid. He ex- pressed the belief that good pay will be found and that big camp will be the result. The formation is a mica schist and the bars show large quan- titles of quartz boulders.
 Messrs. Miller and Veets also found good prospects on the Iana, another tributary of the Chitina. l Among Cordovans in that section are Jas. Barciay, better known as | Jimmy the Bear" Fred Cope and l Sam Thomas Iver St. Clair, who | came out two weeks ago to receive | treatment for deafness after spend i ing three months there, verified the | statements of MT. Miller as to the | good prospects" His experience | with water was similar to that of all l the others. MT. St. Clair received a | letter yesterday from Jas. Barclay, written at Mccarthy October 27, in which the statement was made that 3 to 10 cents to the pan could be obtained. He and Miller located 1 six claims on Charley creek, a tribu- tary of the south fork of the Kagna At the head of the north fork they found vein of manganese and hematite iron, but the ore brought to the Bonanza mine for test did not show any values in gold.
 At Sourdough cabin MT. Miller met Tom Lane and MT. Jacobson taking in hand drill.
