B0ULTER TELLS
Of WORK AMONG
THE INDIANS

After eight years Of work as
of schools for natives
throughout the Interior of Alaska,
which work comes under the United
States Bureau of Education, Profess
sor George T. Boulter, whose head
quarters are in this city, has issued
statement wherein he tells of
the education of the native children
He also tells of Improvements in
the system which could be made
with advantage to the people for
whom it is intended
His statement is as follows:
The native children are bright
and intelligent and, up to a certain
age. progress as rapidly as do
white hildren-making allowances
for the difficulties of the English
language.
The bureau aims 10 do consider

school room work. The children,
both boys and girls, are taught sew

1T is the duty of all of the teach
ers TO look after the sanitary con
dition of the village and its cabins.
Where they have been conscientious
in their work a great improvement in
the native villages can be seen.
The teachers are furnished with
liberal supply of medicines, with
complete instructions how to use the
same. In Alaska there are large
areas in which the services of a
physician are not obtainable and it

Tuberculosis is the cause OF much
suffering and many deaths among
the natives 1t is safe to say thai
fully sixty per cent of the natives
are suffering in some form or an
other, from this disease. 1t is to
be hoped that the bureau will soon
get an extra appropriation from
congress whereby hospitals can be
erected and maintained to the end
that the disease be stamped out as
far as possible; also that many di-
seased natives who are now infect
ing others, can be detained at the
said hospitals and thus be prevent

this could be effected by the con.

Supplies are now landed in the
Koyukuk country in the summer
time at an estimated cost of $500
per ton. 1t is practically impossible
to land them under any condition
over the present winter trail and
therefore, everything is shipped 70

mer Even at that freight can only
be landed at Wiseman at certain
times of the year as the Koyukuk
river is not navigable during the
from 100 to 800 miles below that
point. This condition necessitates
the further expense of transportation

miner.

the work done and the amount OF
money expended in doing it. the Koy

Koyukuk People Will Ask for New Trail
Want $4,000 for Road Into Country

Feeling that they should receive
some consideration at the hands OF
the government in the event that
they are not fortunate enough to Sc
cure the promise OF an extension OF
the government railroad into their
district, the people of the kOyukuk
country are now preparing to send
petition 10 congress asking that
the sum of $4,000 be appropriated
wagon road for them, according to
the statement of j. NJ. Hastings, It
prominent mining man of that re
gion. 1t is planned to have the road
built from Tanana to Wiseman, an
estimated distance of 1875 miles, the
people of the koyukuk pointing out
that the present mail routes would
be shortened and. therefore, the time
required for the transportation of
mails would be lessened. It is
expected that the petition will be
presented in congress before snow
flies.
The present winter trail starts at
Tanana and. winding over hill and
dale for a distance of $50 miles,
finally reaches Wiseman. In the
winter this trail is bad at the best
as the travel over it is not sufficient
to keep it we'll broken between snow
storms. The proposed road would
be between 135 and 145 miles in
length and would lead in an almost
direct line from the town of Tanana,
on the Yukon river, to Wiseman in
the Koyukuk country, and would be
on high, dry ridges most of the way.
For this reason the road could be
kept in excellent condition with but
very little expense once it was in
augurated.
The building of the proposed road
would also do away with the present
river. as the trail could be used 10
advantage in summer as well as in
winter At the present date the
time required to land mail at Wise
man from Tanana either by the sum
mer or winter routes is from II days.
to weeks, and it can, therefore,
be readily seen that, if it would
move but 90 miles per day over
the proposed trail, that time could
be shortened to seven days at the
most.
However, although to them their
mail is an important item, the PEG
pie of the koyukuk country are
anxious for the road to be built on ac
count of the fact that it would be a
great help toward the opening up
of their country. At the present
time transportation is the greatest

Mrs. Richardson spoke OF Washington

George Washington's idea, as he had no
children to bear his name, to leave II as
his heitage to the District.
The Washington society women in the
early SOS were mentioned in an inter-

Colby, and her descriptions of the recep-
tons given by Mrs. James H. Spoffard,
in the Riggs House. when society women
gathered to meet Susan B. Anthony and
the foremost women of those days. were

GREEK LEGATION TELLS
OF TURKISH OUTRAGES
Charge d'Affaires Here Says Every
thing Hellenic Is Prosecuted. De-
spite Official Denials.

Despite official denials given to the
press by the Turkish Embassy in this
city. the war OF determination waged
against the Greeks and other Christians
by the Turks is at this moment inces-
SAINT and relentless" is the charge con-
tained in an official statement issued last
evening by Alexander Vouros, charge
d'affaires of the Greek Legation.
This statement sets forth the facts
which are made known by a dispatch
from a news agency in Athens and by a
letter received in this city by a promi-
nent Greek from a man who now suf-
fers through the Turkish prosecutions of
the Greeks.
The dispatch from the Agence d
Athenes says: In spite of the assurances
of the Turkish government, the perse-
cution Of the Greeks in Thrace in order
to compel them to leave the country has
not diminished. A few days ago the
Greeks in kalfakeuy were obliged to re-
pulse an attack made by bands armed
by the Turkish authorities. These bands
installed themselves in the villages after
having driven out the Greek inhabitants.
The letter received by a Greek in
this city and written from the scene OF
the atrocities says, among other things:
THE boycott against the Christians
in general and the Greeks in particular
continues more and more severe The
fanaticism Of the young Turks (now the
governors Of Turkey. has reached an
incredibly high degree.
