rule Of one tov to child was for.

essary for two Elks to help the boys
down the stairs with the presents
that had been given them.
Long before the announced hour

PEKING, China, July 30+ (P)-A shooting affray, the sequel to a rain inducing ceremony, in which eight persons were killed and many injured, is reported from Taichow Chekiang. Following an ancient custom a living frog in glass was taken to a head military official at his residence for him to kowtow before the frog and offer prayers for rain.
 Alleging the time and place were not appropriate, the official ordered the frog taken to the temple. The crowd refused and riot ensued in which the frog was trampled to death under the feet of the infuriated people who rushed the soldiers and succeeded in disarming some. The official then gave the order to fire and eight fell dead including the priest.

 Good Schooling for Natives


 Including everyone there are about 90 inhabitants in the village. All grades up to and including the fifth grade is taught in the school. The manual arts are being taught along with educational studies, and next year it is understood lathe work, car pentery, joinery, tinsmithing and plumbing will be gone into more ex. tensively.
 The youngsters have proved to be very adept at building stoves, carpen- tering and sewing, and some of the work turned out is of the best. The school could easily be self supporting were they permitted to sell articles manufactured to residents of the dis trict. As it is the school has a small warehouse full of articles manufactur- ed which are going to waste in land where they are badly needed.
 Four teachers comprise the faculty among whom is Miss Marmasena Ha- naka, who teaches skin work and dressmaking. It is understood that new faculty members for the coming school year will arrive in Seward on the next steamer from the states and will go westward on the next sailing of the Starr.

 reau to the Seattle Chamber of Com
 merce to members of the chamber here, says everyone Is working and business conditions are good in Alas ka and are improving. There is practically no unemployment, largely due to the large road construction program, increased mining develop ment and extra maintenance with bridge construction work. The sal mon pack is not up to expectations in any section, but the herring industry promises an increased pack over that of last year, which was low. It is hoped the herring pack will make up the losses on salmon. It is believed that mining will show a larger pro- duction this year. Fur farming is becoming a successful industry. No important changes have been found in agriculture or stock raising. Inter- est is increasing in oil prospecting and numbering. Sawmills are on par with last year. No developments in the wood pulp industry. Tourist travel is satisfactory up to the ac- of transportation. The tourists are greatly pleased with the country. It is observed they are changing from the leisure and profes- sional classes to commercial, financial and industrial"

 Portions of paYemsnts alongside street car tracks which the Con- nectlcut company repaired last year appear just as bad as they ever were. Tho law requires the com pany to keep the streets repaired for eight inches alongside the tracks, and 1t is the duty of the city to see that the company lives up to its agreement.
 The city itself also faces the need for extensive repair work. Weather prospects are such as to permit an early start upon necessary repair work. It should be unnecessary to wait until the middle of summer to begin it.
