RAISING FUNDS
FOR SCHOOL
ANCHORAGE, Oct. 1—The men
hers of the school board waited upor
Mr. Mears to find out what could bt
■ done in the way of getting a public
" school started. The board was tolc
that if it could be shown that suffi
cient funds could be raised to sustair
the school the commission would builc
ja school building. Upon this assu
j ranee, Mrs. Mrs. Normile, a membei
of the school board, immediately sel
to work to find ways and means to pro
vide for the maintenance of the school
j until such time as government school
funds can be secured.
A committee of ladies, consisting
of Mrs. Normile, Mrs. Chase. Mrs.
McCullough, Mrs. Pilger and Mrs.
j Wendler, will circulate subscription
lists throughout the city asking each
and every citizen who has the interest
of the public school at heart to (10
nate any sum they may feel able to
give. In addition to the public sub
scription, the ladies will ask all par
ents and others who are inclined to
agree to pay the sum of fifty cents
per week during the school term,
which will aid materially in financing
the school.
The new sidewalk laid in front of
the Empress block on H street is rael
ly a great improvement, and Capt.
I.athrop is entitled to much credit for
the work.
Surveyor Warner has completed
the survey of the five-acre tracts on
the southern limit of the town. It is
not known just what arrangements
j I will be made for the disposition ol
j these tracts, but it is likely that they
will be disposed in the same manner
as were the lots in the townsite ol
Anchorage. Nothing further, how
ever, will be done with them before
next spring.

(Bacon survey party, arrived in An

\V. J. McDonald, of the forestr;

also of tie service, they will finish th«
I survey work on the Cook Inlet In
■ about a month and a half. Mr. Mc
| Donald states that the Chugach Na
tional Forest boundaries have been
changed vey much during during the
past season. In fact the territory has
i been cut almost in half. The Kenai
| Peninsula boundary war formerly at
j Mile 12 but has now been moved to
j Mile Six. A lot of the Copper River
i territory has been removed from the
reserve. A new map, gottent ou by
i the Forestry Service, showing the new
1 boundaries is now on the press and
I should reach here at any time now.—
