HIGH SCHOOL HUMOR

The whole school agrees that the
song by the Sophomores last Friday
was wonderful. But they say the
Sophs pronunciation was very bad, as
they couldn't understand a single
word. (Sh! Don't tell EN- different,
but the song was sung in Latin.
"They needed song-birds in high
school, so the Juniors answered the
call"
Extract from Sir Roger De Cover
ley Papers: His first complaint was
that he lost his roast beef stomach"
Sir Roger, upon first coming to town,
kicked Billy Dawson in the public
coffee-house"
The Sophs, writing compositions on
Gypsies, turned in some very good
material. The following is taken
from Emerson Sparks: Zone day
last year some gypsies camped near
Pedricktown. l was always afraid to
go neal their camp but, on going
hunting one day, l had to pass it.
There a young gyp Joined me IN my
hunt.
I'VE walked far into the woods and
shot so much game we couldn't carry
it. a farm house being lea we vent
there to hire a horse and wagon. This
being procured, we piled and stacked
our game on the wagon and just then
it began to rain. The traces were
made OF ,raWhide and getting wet
and stretched as soon as our horse
started home. The horse continued
honaeward; the traces continued their
stretching, but the wagon stayed put.
The horse arrived home and the
wagon was still in the woods, so tying
the end OF the traces to a post in the
yard, 1 went to bed.
Next day the sun was bright and
warm, and the traces began to shrink
because of the heat. Shrinking and
shrinking soon brought the traces to
normal and thus drew the load OF
game home

Dr. W. Darcy Chace
 Gets Leniency of Court

From Ketchikan comes the report that owing to various extenuatiug cir cumstanees surrounding the case of the United States vs. Dr.. w. D'Arcy Chace, the widely known physician
 was the fortunate object of consider able judicial olemency, which resulted in sentence comparatively light, in view of the SCI iousness of the charge against him.g
 Chace was. indicted. by the grand jury on six counts of violation of the anti-narcotic laws, and is said to have faced sentences of imprisonment which in the aggregate would have amounted to four for five years, with additional fines amounting collectively to about B, 900. He was fortunate. however, and escaped the penalty in all but one instance, the remaining cases being dropped, following his plea of guilty to one charge. The sentence in this in- stance was imprisonment for a period of one year and ten days and fine of Sl00. The court also ordered that the sentence be served in the federal iail at Juneau, thus permitting the physi- elan to escape tho stigma of incarcera- tion in the penitentiory for his regret table offense.

Eskimo Murderers
 at Herschel Island

Two Rskimos. charged with the mur- der of two white men, Constable Doak' of the Canadian Mounted Police, and Otto Binder, a trader, were recently convicted by special court and sen- fenced to death at Herschel Island. The court was sent to Herschel Island for the express purpose of meteipg out justice to the Eskimo murderers, and forced to travel for the greater part of two months to accomplish it's. purpose and return to Edmonton, it's starting point. The thoronghnesspo of the Cana dian method of administering iustice.is is we'll displayed by the presence of an official exece5toner in' the court party.
 After sentencing the two. Eskimos to death, the magistrate, Judge Dubas, returned to Edmonton, leaving the exc cutioner at Herschel Islandat0 carry out the sentence of hanging on Dec. T Another Eskimo, accused of murder was sentenced to three years imprison ments

Hagan Describes
 Shooting of Bernard

Anchorage Times: James Hagan, deputy U. s. marshal at Nenana, who shot and killed John Bernard during a raid on still near Mckinley Park sta- tion on the night of September l3, is a visitor in Anchorage. MT. Hagan is on his way to Seward to bring back Sam Horton. charged at Fairbanks with violating the dry laws.
 To friends here Hagan. today recited the details of the shooting of Bernard. which, he said, he deeply regretted. Hagan and H. F. Seneff, prohibition officer, had gone to the scene of the shooting in search of 8 still. Seeing smoke and eventually finding the moonshine plant in operation, they sur prised Bernard in the act of tending the fire, and Albert Fortier and Mi chael Sullivan short distance away. Stand where you aFe,'. Bernard got up and ran. Sullivan.raised his hands. but Fortier was so drunk he could not comprehend. Hagan and SenefT fired in the air, and then Seneff. yelled: He's got gun, Jim." Having heard that threats had been made to ''get" any officers who came in that vicinity, Hagan says he fired lower. Later the body of Bernard was foun9s
 The coroner jury found that Ber- nard came to his death from a bullet fired by Hagan in the discharge of his duty and held the officer blameless.

Gordon Bettles Tells of
 Trip to Arctic Coast
Seward Gateway.

Gordon Bettles, well known old Alaskan operator, having been a resi- dent of the Territory since 1887. left on the steamship Alameda for Whidby Island, Wash, where he will spend the winter visiting with his brother, James, and daughter. both former Alaskans.
 MT. Bettles has just returned from a long. trip along the Arctic coast. He left Fort Yukon early in April in con- panY withAH. McGregor, also an old- time. prospector, going by way of ChaRdlar and following up the river and thro1Ehaa 8 pass. into the Salmon and Colville districts, Here they en- ployed a chief of the Huskle tribe as guide and swung to the eastward, to within about 30 miles of the boundary and about 100 miles from the coast line. They abandoned their sleds the latter part Of May and, packing their dogs, swung in wide circle to the vest 1ards thence back by way of Lake Col yille,to Fort Yukon, which they reached 5he4atter part of August Mr. Bettles stated that while the district traversed i5- highly mineralized. it would take dollar for dollar to work it. as there is not a stick of wood of any kind to be had, and. no twigs as large as one's finger. Cooking must be done with l-oa supplies cannot be packed in in sufi- Gient quantities. one must live off cagi- hou and birds. While absent Mr Bet ties discovered new breed of wild sheep, they being well furred and of a light yellow. They are much larger than the species in this section. He reported, their presence to 8 naouralist visiting in Alaska, who announced that he would go into the country next year and secure specimens.
 L-. Bsttle6 declares the Huskie na~ tfves the finest specimens of Indians be has seen for some time. He says they use DO boats but plunge into the icy waters of the streams and swim them like a wild animal. They carry no sleeping bags, but gather a little moss and curl up St night like bear. They have many legends and are supersti- gio0s to degree. They trade at Her schel island mostly.
 The country abounds with caribou, sheep; ptarmigan and foxes, as well as rabbits of two species.
 Mfr. Bettlos settled on the Kusko- zwim iu, 1887, at kolmakofsky, later selling out to Duke E. Stubbs and To- eating on the Kuskokwim. He knows 5he country north of 9he Yukon better .hauany living white man, it is said. .-n his boyhood he worked as com positor on the Detroit Free Press, and printed the first paper in Alaska. at the mission above Holy Cross. in 1886 The press. an old style Gorden, wa. sent out recently to the Alaska Mu scum.
