ALASKA AGRICULTURAL COL
 LEGE DORMITORY NOW OPEN

The College dormitory is now ready for occupancy, or rather it is being made ready day by day, and enough rooms are finished sot hat those who have been waiting :. for them ever since college opened can be accommo- dated. It is expected xzff zfifff zfif dated At the end of the first week i'll December all the rooms were finished, and there are accommoda- , tions for at least twenty short-course men. It was expected that at least that many in addition to the regular students would desire to take the short course in mining and would pre- fer to have quarters at the college.
 The Territorial Legislature did it's part in providing funds for the build ing of a dormitory and now the board of trustees at the College is deter mined to extend every possible oppor- tunity to the students. To those who have lived in Interior Alaska for the last twenty years or more. it seems impossible that one can secure. steam-heated room, electric lights, bath, board ande generally the accom- modationsA of an up-to-date apart ment, for the sum of $55 per month. This, however, is just what is being done at the College. The College fur nishes the bed, springs, mattress, chairs, study table and chiffonier for the.room.. The student furnishes his own bedding and linen. Such articles can be purchased at the College book store slightly in excess of the cost at wholesale. The library at the Col lege remains open until 10:30 p. m., and the lights at the dormitory are on until 11:30 p. m.
 The second short lourse for miners and prospectors will begin February 1. It is we'll worth while, and every one who. can possibly afford to do so should arrange ta,come to the College for a period of ten weeks and make use of this exceptianal opportunity. The laboratories have equipment that
The Kusko times., 1925-12-26

IS uneXcelled in it's line, and the col lection of mineralogical and geolog- ical specimens is by far the largest and most complete ever assembled in the Territory.
 Those who intend to take the sec 'ond short course should communicate with President Bunnell so that reser- vations for rooms can be made. One rooming at the dormitory has plenty of opportunity to visit Fairbanks, for the electric car makes seven round trips epr day between Fairbanks and the College. The expense for books and supplies for the course will amount to approximately $25, but there is no charge for tuition.

STOLE POLICE CHIEFS DIA-
 M0ND STUDDED BADGE

Detroft.-The ostensible reason for Slippery Jim" Cushway's re-arrest by Milwaukee police when he left Marquette prison Tuesday morning after fve-year sentence was that he was wanted there for several bur glaries. That is not quite the whole truth. Why Milwaukee police wanted Jim so badly was because the slip pery one, after playing fast and loose with other peoples property, escaped from jail there, returned to police headquarters immediately after. and stole the gilded, diamond-studded badge of the chief of police.
 Wouldn't that make any police de partment angry?
 The story was told yesterday ny. Detective Lieutenant William l. Cross of Highland Park, as he heard it from Jim's own lips when Cross arrested him LII 1922, after one of his fifteen escapes from Michigan iails.
 Operating in Milwaukee, Jim en- tered q house which he thought. was empty. There was little girl there, however, and Jim said he wanted to rent garage. The little girl appar- ently believed him, but the second Jim left the house she telephoned po- lice. He was picked up i've .pninutes later.
 At headquarters Jim was recog nized by his finger prints. The off cers chuckled on discovering who their distinguished guest was and let him know he was not going to do any slippery work in Milwaukee.
 Relating the story to Cross, Cush- way had the bad taste to mimic the Teutonic accent of some of the Mil waukee police, adding that their sat isfaction only made him the more anxious to make his escape as q point of professional pride
 By smuggling letter out of jail to woman in Chicago he obtained "a ball of string which he let down from his cell window at midnight. His woman accomplice attached a pair of saws to the string, and he spent the rest of the night saving through the bars of his cell door. The next day Slippery left without leaving his address.
 He felt mighty pleased at having outwitted his friends, but his aesthetic taste wat not satisfied. So he re- turned to police headquarters and re- moved the chiefs badge from the coat which was hanging on a door.
 He eventually worked around to
