Mrs. Carey was able to tell q
fairly coherent story of the tragedy
this morning. She said that she
and her husband went to the Mexi-

her husband became involved in an

that the Mexican hit her husband
with a bolt and her husband, to de-
fend himself, picked up an TX

the Mexican. The Mexican grabbed
the ak away from her husband, she
stated. and hit him over the head

the Alaska Agricultural college
and School OF Mines, will be open
ed here next September.
No longer will it be necessary
for Alaska's high school gradu

priated S60,000. 1t was not until
1921, however, when sufficient
appropriations were made and the
opening of the college next Sep
tember became assured. Once op-
