terday, is to be buried Sunday.
The funeral will take place from

McCi.y offiicating.
A special council meeting call
ed last night took up the question
of the appointment of an inspect
or to officiate during the period
of the construction on the new
school building.
Various arguments arose over
the advisability of appointing a
technical or practical man to ser
ve.
A motion was passed by the
council setting the wage of the
school inspector at $250.00 per
month, such wage eliminating
one or two of the applicants.
A successful motion was passed
appointing J. C. Kennedy as in
spector for the new Nome school
building.
Another matter brought up at
the same meeting was the ques
tion of appealing to the Alaska
Road Commission oflice at Juneau
for permission to use the ARC
equipment at Nome for the pur
pose of graveling the site of the
new school building. It was de
cided to wire the headquarters of
fice at Juneau for the permission
desired. No other business com
ing before the meeting the coun
cil adjourned to meet again at
regular session.
