LATE ALASKAN THOUGHT HAVE BEEN LAST 0F
 REBELLION SURVIVORS

Mckinley Park, June 8. Especial to The Gateway)-Mike J. Sulli- van, born in Canada, and for sev- eral years living at this place, died in the hospital at Fairbanks, Mon day of last week.
 Mike had been employed sum- mers by the Alaska Road Commis- sion on road work in the Park.
 He is believed to be the last Of the survivors of the Riel Rebellion Cor Red River Rebellion in Cana da in 1885,
 A little earlier Louis Riel, half breed Canadian, staged an upris- ing against the Red Coats, and the partial success led him to stage a return engagement in 1885 in which he made the fatal mistake of talk ing in too much territory. With the aim of removing the danger of further uprisings the Red Coats lined up about 35 of the leaders, and got them to take part in a little ceremony they put on. The doctors verdict was that the lea ders caught cold and died from want of breath.
 The rest of these were sentenc- ed to Fort Gary penitentiary.
 When Mike left Canada he knock ed about the States and then came to Alaska. While at Hot Springs he made the front page in connection with the mysterious disappearance of prospector there, and again in 1924, where a few miles south of Mckinley Park John Bernard, a Norwegian. was ironed by bullet from a gat believed by some to have been held by a dry agent. Burial was at Fairbanks.

'CLAC|ER PRIEST GOES
 ID AN|AKCHAk CRATER

A Fairchild plane of the Pacific International Airways hopped off from Anchorage June enroute to Holy Cross to pick up Father Der nard R. Hubbard, the Glacier Priest" From Holy Cross the plane was to go to Dillingham; and from the latter place to Chignik, and from Chignik to base near the crater, says the Anchor age Times.
 The plane will then be used by Father Hubbard in an attempt to photograph the active crater, where there were two eruptionS during the last month. Prior to those eruptions there was a lake in the crater of sufficient size for a landing, but it is considered doubtful if the lake is still there. If it is, the fliers will endeavor to make a landing in the crater.

HOW TO ECONOMIC.
ON HOMES is TOLD.
Utilizing Rough Timber With
Small Amount of Waste
ID Emphasized.
by WILLIAM q. HALBERT. JR.

The problem of design for the mod
crate priced house is one of elimination
of all waste space, Simplifcation and
economy in framing, concentration of
plumbing, utilization of Easements for
garage, rumpus room, ETC., and o1lis-
sion of superfluouS features.
There is no particular economy IN
small rooms. The most important
thing in framing the house is to utilize
the rough lumber with the smallest
amount of waste Ind cutting. Floor
joists are bought in even foot lengths,
and as they must have q bearing of
four inches on each side the economi-
cal width Of room is some odd dtmen-
sion plus four inches.
In general 1t is not economical to
have spans greater than II feet inches,
as heavier and consequently more ex-
pensive timber must be used. How
ever, this span Is quite ample for all
except the larger houses.
Concentration. OF Plumbing.
Plumbing should be concentrated as
far as possible and baths should either
be side by side or over each other to
obtain maximum economy.
Irregularities in the site must be
taken advantage of. A lot sloping to
the rear usually will make it possible
to locate the garage in the basement
and sometimes, also a basement play
room completely or partially out Of
ground and consequently well lighted
and dry. A lot sloping to the side will
allow a garage to be partly in the
ground with bedroom over 1t on
mezzanine floor.
Orientation and cross ventilation are
extremely important features OF any
house.
All exterior walls and second floor
ceilings should be insulated either by
an insulating material used as a plas-
ter base or by incombustible material
filling the space between the studs.
This will pay for itself In fuel savings
in q few years and will provide much
cooler house in summer.
Breakfast NoOks Convenient.
Breakfast rooms are hardly a neces-
eity in the moderate sized house, but
a built-in breakfast nook is sometimes
q convenience where 1t is desirable for
children to eat at different hours from
the rest of the family and as con-
venience for breakfast or on the maids
day out This takes but little space
and may be combined with the pantry.
An attractive way to finish this room
is to panel it with vertical boards of
knotty pine or wor1ny chestnut, treat
ing both woodwork and furniture with
. soft brown filler and o coat of wax.
This finish Is inexpensive and requires
little or no care. A breakfast nook
finished In this way costs but little
more than one having plaster walls.
kitchens should be ef1cient, with
ample storage facilities. Both sink
and range should be located to receive
natural light and should be fairly close
together. My own tendency in design
ing kitchens In the smaller houses Is
80 make them Of limited area with the
shortest possible distance between
dresser, sink and range This saves
many steps. The principal dish storage
should be IN the pantry, and the re-
frigerator in an entry where closet
for supplies also may be located.
