EASTER BALL MOST
 DELIGHTFUL EVENT

The Easter Ball given by the Catholic ladies last night was a very delightful social event which was attended by over two hundred guests. The ladies had spared no trouble in arrangements. The dec orations, which were profuse and beautiful, carried out in yellow and white with purple fieur de lys and baskets of white lilies, with white and yellow streamers and huge bow knots, indeed old Redmen's Hall was in full Easter dress, airy and dainty, and a fit setting for the many charming new gowns and happy faces of the dancers. The music wasNof the best and dance in- spring. Punch and light refresh ments were served from a table centered with spring blossoms, cano- pied with the prevailing color scheme.
 The dancing which began at nine o'clock continued until 1:30 a. m, when the guests departed feeling that they had enjoyed themselves entirely. The ladies in charge are to be congratulated for this very successful and delightful affair.

DIVER IS SEARCHING
 FOR CHRISTIE'S BODY

(Juneau Empire, April 22.)
 Diver c. F. Stagger worked for two hours under the waters of Gas ,tineau channel but was unable to find any trace of the body of Will fam Christie. However, only about half of the deep hole was searched and Diver Stagger is down again this afternoon.
 This morning, when the party left Juneau, they took scow along to work from as it is much easier to work from it than the deck of the Lue.
 The case against Krause for kid naping Christie is still being tried and the government is putting in evidence. Yesterday afternoon Mrs Christie was examined and told of the disappearance of her husband and of the finding of a note on the doorstep She readily identified the note shown to her by the district at torney as the one found by her, al- though she had failed to do so in a previous trial.
 A. E. Gurr, cashier of the First Territorial Bank of Douglas, was placed on the stand and identified the signature of Christie. He also identified the signature of Christie on several checks. He was then ask ed if the signature signed on the bottom of the note had been writ ten by William Christie. He stated that it had not. The name on the note he stated was a clever forgery
 When objections were made bl the attorneys for the defense to the introduction of the evidence of the writing, the district attorney stated to the court that the government would endeavor to prove that the signature on the note was forged and that Krause had done it.

THE CAPITAL CITY HAS
 TROUBLE OF HER OWN
(Juneaa Dispatch.)

Mayor B. D. Stewart at the coun- cil meeting last night said that he wanted each member of the council to pay the city school house a visit. He said it was matter that deserved the serious attention of the council.
 Councilman Morgan was less di- plomatic and declared fiat-footed that the schoolhouse was disgrace to Juneau; that it was a fre-trap; that it was unsanitary and needed instant attention. He said he did not believe the people of Juneau realized how serious the question was at the presenttime-
 Iii fact, Mir Morgan in effect de clared that it was little better than a shack and that the city would be benefited by setting 1t on fire and getting rid of it.
 Councilman Ericson said his com mittee was working on the matter and expected to have something to report in a short time.
 Councilman Ramona said it twas a moral cinch that something ought to be done before June ?. In fact there was not a dessenting voice about the necessity of improving the school house conditions in Juneau It is expected that the committee and the school board will have something to report to the next council meeting.
