of this enterprise in Alaska is most i interesting and is not generally known. Our teachers should know it well. During 1S90 Dr. Sheldon Jackson, general agent of education in Alaska, was impressed with the fact that the natives in Arctic and sub-Arctic Alaska were rapidly losing the sources of their food supply. Each year the whales were going farther and farther north, beyond the reach of the natives who had no steamships in which to pursue them; the walrus, which formerly had been seen in herds by the thousands, were disappearing; the seal were becoming exterminated, and in the winter the Eskimo had to tramp 15 to 20 miles out on the ice before he could catch one. The modern hunter with his
 gas and steam launches and rapid fire guns, had found the whales, wal
 rus and seals such easy prey that he
 was ruthlessly destroying them. The wild caribou, that the native had easi- ly captured before, has also been frightened away and was rarely seen. "Not only was the Eskimo losing
 his food, but what in an Arctic clim- ate is no less important, his clothing as we'll. The whalebone, the ivory tusks, the seal skin, the oil had given
 him means of barter with the Siberian traders across the straits, from which
 he obtained reindeer skins to keep
 him warm in winter.

Export of Reindeer Meat

According to recent figures com piled by the Bureau of Biological Survey there are now about 35O,OOO reindeer in Alaska, distributed in 11O herds. In addition to this number it is estimated that about 125,0O0 have been slaughtered for meat and cloth ing. During the period from 1918 to 1926 more than 1,S75,OOO pounds of reindeer meat was shipped from Alas ka, the total for 1923 being approxi- mately 100000 pounds, for the year 1924 about 375,OOO pounds and for 1925 approximately 6SO,OOO pounds to- gether with several hundred live ami mals for distribution in the States.
 Steers for butchering sold in 1925 for s1O to SIP a head. Breeding stock is valued at SIS to $3O per head and the average cost of production for each animal is about $1 per year.
 While the native schools are stress ing the industrial features of the cur ricula, the courses are such as to open the way for higher education when ever the student desires to travel be- yond the bounds of purely utilitarian instruction.

First Deer Experiments

"Dr. Jackson saw that unless some thing was done at once the United States would have to choose between feeding the 100000 and more natives or letting them starve to death. The latter course was impossible; the for mer expensive. In 1891 Dr. Jackson brought the first herd of 16 reindeer across Boring strait from Siberia and started his reindeer colony at Teller. Many smiles at the experiment and declared his plans for stocking the great barrens of northwestern Alaska with thousands of animals, which for centuries had been indispensable to the natives of Lapland and Siberia, was impracticable and wasteful of time and money. But the experiment prospered from the very first. Other reindeer numbering nearly 1000 in all during the succeeding years, were brought over from Siberia. After IF years from the first importation there were nearly 5000 reindeer in the various herds distributed along the Alaskan coast from Point Barrow to Bethel"

 The publisher was the first wit ness called last Tuesday when the investigation was started and sub poena was issued calling him to appear again today.
 William II.

She has been missing from her home here since last Fri day.
 Apparently having gained little information from Stephenson him. self when the ex-Klan leader was brought from the state prison We'd nesday officials turned their atten- tion today to persons who were close to him before he was convict ed of murdering Madge Oberholtzer and sent to prison for life. Sub poenaes were issued for several of Stephenson's friends.

Poison Gas in War Is
 Once More Defended

Philadelphia, Oct. 15 H9 - Use of poison gas in warfare was de- tended by Lieutenant Colonel H. L. Gilchrist of the army medical corps in an address last night at the annual convention of the as sociation of military surgeons of the United States Poisonous vapor, he said, should not be regarded as an inhuman weapon.
 ''So far as the use of gas in con- bat is concerned" Col. Gilchrist said, "the lessons taught by the World war show that a man in- jured by gas has 12 times as many chances to live as he would if in jured by shells, bayonets or bull lets. Casualties among American soldiers i'll the World war were about 12 times as high among those injured through old fashion ed war weapons as those wounded in gas attacks"
