COURT COSTS UNCLE SAM
 LARGE SUM EACH DAY

KETCHIKAN, Dec. 13. - That it costs Uncle Sam some money to con. duct court in Ketchikan is evident from the figures compiled by w. w. Casey, Jr., chief deputy marshal and disbursing officer who announces that for the last week he gave out ap- proximately $1,29O a day. As this did not include the fees of jurors and some others, he estimates that the daily expenditures have been more than $1,5O0.
 If this rate of expenditures should be kept up for period of sixty days the disbursements would be approxi- mately $100,000
 One of the largest expense accounts ever turned in by any district, outside of the southern district of New York, which embraces New York City, was turned in several years ago by the Fourth judicial division, being more than a quarter of million dollars for one quarter.

LOCAL SCHOOLS
 HIGHLY PRAISED
 BY HENDERSON

Returning on the Northwestern from a short visit to schools in towns to the westward, Commissioner of education L. D. Henderson, reported all of these institutions to be in good shape and doing excellent work He visited Anchorage, Seward, Cordova, Valdez and Latouche during his ab- sence from Juneau, says the Empire
 Anchorage he said, has just con- pleted certain units of a school gym nasium which is a valuable addition to its educational plant
 At Seward, Commissioner Tender son met the citizens in a special gen. eral meeting in which the matter of enlarging the work at the school was taken up and discussed at length.
 The Valdez school is adding two new lines to it's school course, these being manual training and domestic science. The school, he said, is some what depleted, but is maintaining a full high school course
 The Cordova school is one of those fortunate institutions, which has the whole town back of it. This end he added, has been attained largely through the work of the present prin- cipal, Miss Keever, staff of six teachers is employed at Cordova, be- ing one larger than last year. AS in other places visited, considerable at- tention is being given physical edu- cation and folk dancing has been added through all the grades includ- ing high school.
 With the completion of this trip, Commissioner Henderson has covered almost all of the territory, visiting practically every town wherein large schools are maintained. While the in- condition, he is particularly impressed with the showing made in the high schools. The school year of 1919- 1920 showed a 25 per cent increase over the previous one in high school enrolment, having a total of 361 stu dents. The first month of the pres ent year showed an enrolment of 327, an increase over the first month last year with indications that it will be 1arunlv a1Io1 t0 hnfnrn nf ho term next spring.

GALVESTON TO HONOR STUCK
 BY MEMORIAL

In honor of the memory of the late Hudson Stuck, archdeacon of the Yu- kon, a memorial window is being in- stalled in the St. Matthews Cathedral at Dallas, Tex, where the noted Epis- copal churchman was stationed prior to coming to Alaska. Rev. Etuck was dean of the Dallas cathedral for a period of ten years, that structure being completed under his supervision and the paying off of the debt against the property accomplished by him. He also built the St. Matthews Home for children and founded St. Mat thew's school for boys, the latter flourishing up to the time he left the city.
 Right Rev. Thomas F. Gailor, pre- siding bishop of the Episcopal church in America paid the following glow. ing tribute to the former Alaska arch deacon:
 ''The death of Archdeacon Hudson Stuck will bring sorrow to many hearts that loved him, but will also awaken in them the finest compelling admiration of that combination of un- selfish devotion to ideals and capaci- ty for heroic adventure which charac- terizes the noblest manhood.
 "Archdeacon Stuck possessed a per sonality which put him in a class with Livingstone and Theodore Roose- welt. He had keen intellectual per ception. positive convictions and tre- mendous energy, and over it all and through it all shone the white flame of love for his fellow-men.
 Sixteen years ago he resigned the Deanery of Dallas, Texas, where his great power as a preacher had won for him the admiration of the en- tire community, and volunteered for the work in Alaska under Bishop Rowe. In the vast and sparsely populated region his consecrated en- thusiasm and almost limitless energy carried him to the natives of every race and class. The pictures which he had drawn in his four volumes of travel and adventure produce a profound impression, and the books themselves will hold their place among the classic pieces of that kind of literature.
 His alma mater, the University of the South. voted him the degree of doctor of divinity, and twice elected him to professorship, but he reso- lutely declined, saying: God has called me to this work in Alaska and l must keep my trust With his sound learning, his clear and lofty vision, and his genius for expression, he would have become famous as a preacher in metropolitan city, but he obeyed the dictates of his 'inexor- able and pure conscience and gave his talents, his thought his care, his life to the Indians and Eskimos in the name of Jesus Christ who said: He that willeth to save his life shall lose it, and he that willeth to lose his life for my sake shall find it."
