Mrs. Ella B. Cupples, a Seattle woman teacher at the United States government Indian school at Circle, Alaska. narrowly escaped with her life when the school building and her living apartments were destroyed by fire at noon on Tuesday, according to Q cable received yesterday by W. T. Lopp, chief of the Alaska division of the bureau of education.
 Mrs. Cuples left Seattle for Circle on September g. reaching her destin- ation on one of the late boats to go down tho river. Before coming to Seattle Mrs. Couples resided in Ju- neau for six years. Mrs. Eulene Silk wood, Q nurse at Columbus sanitar- ium. 1919 Madison street, is a daugh- ter of Mrs. Cupples.
 Mrs. Cupples was slightly burned in getting out of the building. No mention was made of the native children and it is believed that they escaped injury, the fire having oc- cured during the noon intermission. Mrs. Cupples lost all her effects.
 The thermometer stood 1t 50 below at Circle on Tuseday, the message stated. The weather has been decid- edly cold there for several days. The weather bureau here was in- formed that it was s2 degrees below zero at Circle on Monday.
 The government school at Circle was . log structure, one story high, and cost $3,500. One end of the build ing was used for a class room and the ether end was fitted up for the teachers home. Between twenty and twenty-five Indian children were in attendance. Circle has another school supported by the territoria govern

ment, for the use of half-breed chil- dren and whites.
 The same school was the scene of a fire about three years ago when the teacher was seriously burned on one arm as the result of a gasoline explosion.
 Mrs. Cupples now faces the neces- sity of making a trip of l50 miles or more over the Yukon river ice to Eagle, Alaska. She will travel with dogs, which can be secured at Circle. In the meantime she will be able to obtain necessary clothing and accom- modations at Circle.
 The trip over the ice was to have been made in January even if the school had not burned. Due to a lack of funds, the bureau of education has had to reduce it's teaching force in the Far North. The contract under which Mrs. Cupples went North pro- vided that she should teach at Circle during the fall and early winter and then go to Eagle. which is the last American port up the Yukon river, for the remainder of the year.
 Circle, as it's name implies is close to the Arctic Circle and consequently the hours of daylight are very short at this time of the year. On clear day the sun may be seen over the south ern horizon for Q few hours, but when the clouds settle down and the snow flies there is little difference between daylight and dark. Every day part of the school session is con- ducted by artificial light, and when the weather is very cold, as it was on the day of the fire, the children
