TANANA GOLD
 OUTPUT TO BE
 LARGE AS 1914

FAIRBANKS. Aug. 2.-In the opin- ion of R. c. Wood. president of the First National Bank. the output of the Fairbanks district will be fully as big this year as 1t was in the season of 1914. To date. according to Mir. Wood the amount of gold brought to town compares favorably with last season, and the banker thinks that even more gold has been brought to town this year.
 While the labor strike, which lasted for ten days. has held back the out put somewhat. Mr. Wood thinks that it may not diminish the output this summer. as the operators will prob ably have time before the freezeup to take out all the dirt which they had blocked out.
 Last season. the output was approx imdely three and onefhalf million dollars and the banker thinks it will be fully that amount this year
 Owing to the quartz activities at the head of Fairbanks Creek. as well as in other sections. 1t is expected that this will boost the output some what Fairbanks Times)

WRANGELL MAY
 GET NEW BUILDING

WRANGELL, Aug. i5.--According to adyices just given out plans are being made for new jail building for WrangeiL While only the estimate is as yet made it is believed that, it will be carried through and new iail building built on the site now occupied by the old court house. The facts of the affair have not been giv- en out as yet but 1t is felt that the building will be two stories high and will possibly contain a room for the Commissioners office.
 We have long felt the need of some new government buildings to take the place of the old decayed court house, which is an eyesore to us all. setting on the prettiest sight in the town, the impression of the old struc- lures are very bad, and are the com ments of all our visitors who walk through the reserve. With the old buildings torn down and a new mod ern one set in the center of tho beautiful lawn which the marshal's of- flee has taken such a care to build up, the effect of the sight can be readily guessed. We heart 1t contended while speaking on this subject that one prominent man in town. was not in favor of destroying these build ings but preserving them as me- mento of thet past, we cannot agree with him for we want to see Wran- gell built up to a modern little city. so that OUT visitors will go away with the impression in mind rather than that of an old fort and court house and totem poles.- (wrangell Senti- nell

TANANA FARMERS TO BREAK ALL
 PREVIOUS RECORDS

FAIRBANKS. Aug. 2.- Never in the experience of Fairbanks farmers have they had better success than this summer, according to P. J. Rick ert, who owns ranch of some size. The weather has been better this season, for growing crops than ever before in his experience, and his total yield, Of an agricultural products, win be greater than ever
 During the early part of the sum- mer there was a drought which made 1t look doubtful for the crops for Q while, but then rain came, and all summer long. the ground has been kept in fairly good shape by the per iodical rains. In addition to this, the weather has been mild and the nights warm making 1t ideal for crops to grow
 Like other farmers Mr. Rickert has found that his grain did not grow as high this year as in former summers but the yield per acre is fully as good as ever
 All farmers report good potato crop and they will be prepared in the future to furnish all the spuds want ed in the interior. Last year. some of their potatotes, owing to the fact that many Outside potatoes were shipped in were compelled to throw away some of their own.
 One prominent grocer said yester- day that the spuds which he brought from the States last summer were not so good as those grown right here in The Panama valley. and for that req son. he is going to cut down the im- portation this year and try to edu- cate everybody to eat home grown products.
 A prominent restaurant man. who has never used native potatoes In the past, except for a very short time in the summer. says that this win ter he proposes to use nothing but the home grown. He is anxious to pat ronize home industry and thinks that he can get a product that will be just as good as those grown in the States.
 Money spent for potoes grown in Alaska win be circulated here again. Money spent for outside potatoes will go to farmers in the States and will be lost to Fairbanks.- Fairbanks Times)

PROGRESS IN
 OUR COLLEGES

There were 216,4sS students in col leges. universities. and technoligical schools in 1914. according to the an- uual report of the Commissioner Of Education. just issued This is an increase of 14.262 over 1913. The Bu- reau's list for 1914 includes 567 in- stutions. a decrease of 29 over the preceding year. States or municipal ities control 93 of the colleges; prl- vate corporations control 474. Men still outnumber women in higher edu- cation; there were 139.S73 men in 1914 and 77,12O women. as compared with 12S.544 men and 7S.5S7 women in 1918. Despite rising standards of ad- mission and graduation. college en- rollment has more than tripled since 1890.
 Receipts during the year totalled S120.579. .257. of which S1S.422.S56 was for endowment. Benefactions to col. leges and universities totalled S26,- 67O.O17, something over S2.OO0.OOO in excess of the previous year. Six in- stitutions received benefactions in ex- cess of million dollars apiece. and 45 universities. colleges. and techno- logical schools reported gifts amount ing to more than $1OOOO0. In the past seven years the largest increase in income has come through State and municipal appropriations, and the smallest from tuition and other fees. State and municipal appropriations grew from S9.649.549 in 1908 to $2S,- 4OO.54O in 1914. while fees for tuition and other educational services in. creased from S15.39OS47 to S22.504,- 529.
 The dominant note of the year in higher education. according to the re- port. was concentration. both in in- ternal organization and in relation to State authority. The movement in the direction of authoritative classifi- cation gained momentum during the year. chiefly through the activities J of several voluntary associations. The junior College movement has reached the point where several States-no- tably Wisconsin. Missouri, Virginia. and Idaho-have gone on record as definitely recognizing junior colleges in the educational system O the State. The municipal universities of Akron. Ohio. was added to the list of city universities, and the new AS sociation of Urban Universities" es- tablished in the fall of 1914. lends em- phasis to this municipal-university de- velopment
 Degrees conferred by colleges and universities included 26.53S baccalaur- ate, 5.2S4 graduate, and 749 honorary. The degree of doctor of philosophy was conferred as the result of exam nation by 46 institutions on 446 men and 7S women.

 The fair apparition was within 100 feet of Busby. but fled into the woods upon sight of him. Busby says the woman. whoever she is, has the form of Venus. She was also seen by pas 1engers on an east-bound Milwaukee train in the same neighborhood.

PIONEER OF 1os YEARS
 IN ALASKA LARGE

Not the least interesting feature about Anchorage is the great mosquito fleet making its headquarters at that point. They swarm about the vessel as it enters the harbor and they arc making big money owing to the fact that they charge S1 for tightening pas sengers or g for the round trip. this during the first six hours of the stay of the vessel. after which the price drops to 30 cents one way.
 As every vessel entering has had from 150 to 200 passengers the mosQui- to fleet has picked up quite a tidy sum. and as meals are served in the Seattle Cafe" and other tent places at 50 cents. these intrepid mariners ought certainly to make little clean up while the excitement lasts.
 The only trouble is that "the pick lngs" having been SO good at first the news was heralded abroad and there will soon be too many to make 1t profitable.
 These vessels have drifted in from every part of the Pacific - Nome. Kodiak. San Francisco. Tacoma, Se- attle. Juneau and various other ports of registry appearing on the sterns. There were many small vessels and launches permanently located on Tur- nagain or Wnik Arm. but these have been augmented by the invaders from afar.
 Some Of these vessels are disregard ing all rules by greatly overcrowding with passengers and owing to the heavy tidal currents and other condi- tions, unless they are forced to strict iy obey the law by the steamboat in- spection service or other department in authority. some serious accident might result-(Railway and Marine News.l

 APPLIES FOR PENSION

Claiming to be 1OS years of age and also the oldest man in Alaska, John Finlayson. who has been a resident of Wrangell since 1847 has made appli- cation for a pioneers pension. After brief prospecting jaunt made in 1S4s Finlayson settled down in Wran- gell and has stayed there ever since. The pioneers claims for his age are corroborated by many of his friends in Wrangeli, all of whom seem to be- lieve that he may have seen even more than 103 snummers.
 The pension which may be granted under the law in his case amounts to $125O per month. This makes the eleventh application received during the past few weeks at the Governors office
