 VISITING HERE

This is the third time General Pratt, [. S A, retired, has come on visit 10 Alaska The first was in 1896, and the second in 1903.
 Gen. Pratt is the founder of the ia nous Carslile School in Pennsylvania and until a few years ago was the act ing superintendent of the school. The school was founL~- in the early seven ties to meet the distressing conditions among the Indians in the United States resulting from the Indian wars and from the effects of the civil war. It was under the presidency of Presi- dent Grant that Gen. Pratt was author ized 10 open an Indian school at the abandoned Cavalry barracks at Cars lie. Pa Since then many thousands United States, including Alaska, have taken courses of study at the school and those who have graduated there have filled many responsible positions wherever they have gone.
 It is Gen. Pratts plan at the pres ent to spend about three weeks among some of his Indian boys in this local ity. and to enjoy the sights of the coun- try. With MT. Marsden and others he expects to do some trout fishing and will make Ketchikan their headquar- ters while here
