 EXERCISES OF
 SCHOOL HELD

By far the most elaborate closing ! day exercises ol recent years in ! Fairbanks were The numbers com i posing inc program given last night at the Auditnrinm hy tn" nunils of the Fairbanks schools And not l only were they beautiful, but they were very impressive as well. show ing great dcal of work on the part of both teachers and children From the time that Rev. II H Lumpkin l opened the program with the usual invocation and closed 1t with the benediction, there was not a dull moment, the program being partici pated in by practically all of the students, from the oldest senior down to the youngest child in the first grade.
 Contrary to the usual order of ar rangement at commencement exer cises here, the curtain at the Audi torium rose promptly at 8;30 o'clock on bare stage. Then those who had parts on the program came for ward in tuln. The finale was the presentation of diplomas by Mrs. Cora N Hamilton, president of the Fairbanks school board, who, with d few well chosen words, first gave their diplomas to the eighth grade graduates and later to the four young pcope who graduated from the high school, The latter four were Miss Alta Porter and Messrs. Rodney Johnson, Edby Davis and Earl Foster
 "Hlawatha," in costume by the children of the third and fourth grades, was one of the most impress sive numbers. A tent and imitation camp fire in addition to the cos tunes worn by the children added a touch of reality to the scene.
 The flag drill was also very i'm pressive, the children of the second grade going through it without hitch. Each child carried two flags.
 The boys wore blue sashes and the 
 girls red sashes
 Another number worthy of special mention was the calisthenic drill par ticipated in by girls from the Fifth and sixth grades. They wore dark blue skirts and white middies as uniform and went through their ex
 ercses in perfect manner All other numoers on the program were equally worthy of praise the three mentioned being douby inter esting Tor the reason that they car ried with them the important factor of costuming, which in these in stances was perfect.

INSANE MAN CANNOT NOW
 BE LOCATED

Insane man same party who was reported on Circle trail last March, Believe he is out of this division now. May show up around Paxsons later He was six days making from Rapids to Miller's, living on porcu pine Think it useless to continue search"
 The foregoing dispatch. directed to the marshal5 office here, was re- ceiyed last night by Chief Deputy Marshal j. H. Miller from Deputy Marshal Pete McMullen. who left Saturday night to bring i'll the insane man in question from Miller's road house, where he was reported to have been caught. And that he was caught there is no doubt, but before the deputy reached Miler's the men who had him in charge turned him loose. Consequently, although lie has searched everywhere for the man, . the wire from Deputy Marshal Me Mullen indicates that he has been unable to discover anything regard ing the mans whereabouts except the general direction in which he was travelling at the time. On other f,,+, T 1it,fr If, if,,r of the insane man, as far as known, the wire is sclf-eXplanatOry but that part of 1t which states that it is the same man who was seen on the Circle trail in March is a little am biguous to anybody not familiar with the circumstances.
 The name of the man is believed to be Sam Hunneca. He was work ing on Dome creek last fall when suddenly he took his rifle and left the creek, going toward the Big ! Cinema country, Since that time he has been seen but few times, and at those times he always had his rifle ready to stand off anyone who i approached him. A search was in sttuted for him by d number oi his countrymen Che is d Russian) but they never could catch him. The man is supposed to have lived off the country all winter. for he was not seen again until last March, when Andy Livingston met him OH the Circle trail At that time lie hao rags bound around his feet and was wearing but little clothing. How he had managed to subsist all winter so scantily garbed was the mystery | But, at any rate, he escaped again, and has been wandering since that time, showing up occasionally at places where he could get a few cartridges for his gun and where he could get some clothes.
 Prior to this time the marshal's office was unable to secure the neces- sary authority to go after the man, After he was reported as having been caught out the trail, however, Deputy Marshal Miller wired for and secured the authority to send out a deputy to bring him in. Deputy , Marshal McMullen was sent, but has so far been unable to bring in his man, owing to the fact that after i once being caught his captors turned him loose.
 That he is i'll poor physical condi- tion is evidenced by the fact that
 1t took him six days to make the
 short journey from Rapids to Miller

Of five men have been on the job since
Tuesday and 1t is hoped that the sur

The first section of the line was
run on ten per cent grade, and the
upper section will probably be reduced
to six or perhaps less. With this per
cent of grade there will be no difficulty

people from this section will be able
to reach Grangeyille and other prairie
points by direct route, while the
farmers from the Winona section will
be able to reach town with little diff

The Importance of this road cannot
be over estimated and 1t will fill long
felt want. Besides being benefit to
the travelling public 1t will afford the
community on the hill. having Kooskia
as natural trading point with little
trouble. In the past a large amount
OF trade which should have come here
has been diverted to other places ON
account of the well nigh impossible
roads The steep grade as now used
will be done away with and AN entire
ly new route obtained. The proposed
route will be less than four miles In
length and VIII be passable at all times
of the year
The cost of the new grade will be In
the neighborhood of eight thousand dol
lars The highway board has four
thousand dollars available at the pres
ent time and the balance will have t6

that the work has been actually com

will not be such hard matter and
