B. B. Neiding, formerly superinten
dent of the Perseverance mine for the
Alaska Gastineau Mining Company and
| at present general manager of the
Carbonado Coal Company, will take
over the management of the Brittania
Mine near Vancouver on October 1.
The Britania mine is one of the larg
est and richest in North America, and
Is about 40 miles from Vancouver, B.
C. by railroad.
Producing 2,800 tons of ore, the
Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company
doubled its daily output of ore. This
is the result of the installation of new
machinery and a gradual development
of the Alaska Juneau plant which has
been going on for the last year. It
is understood that further increases
I in output will be made from time to
time.
Shipments of mining supplies
from Seattle into the Kuskokwim
mining district are unusually heavy
this season, according to advices re
ceived here. The auxilliary powered
schooner Ozmo sailed from Seattle for
Bethel last week with shipments of
mining machinery for the Alaska
Treadwell Gold Mining Company, the
Kuskokwim Dredge Company, and the
Flume Dredge Company, all of which
have property near McGrath.
In addition to the mining machinery
\ the Ozmo has shipments of general
merchandise, coal and other supplies,
her cargo aggregating 1,000 measure
ment tons. The steamship Catherine
D. will sail from Seattle Friday with
a cargo of 1,000 tons of general mer
chandise and supplies for Bethel
which will be transferred to the Oz
mo in Unalaska.
Mining in the Slate Creek district,
85 miles from Gulkana, on the
Richardson Highway, is prosperous
and the outlook for the camp is prom
ising, according to Major W. H. Waugh
who recently returned after looking
over the trail situation in the district
and investigating the possibilities of
the proposed wagon road into the min
ing camp.
“The Slate Creek Gold Mining Co.,
the Malony and Cleveland Company
and several small mines are all oper
ating,” Major Waugh said, “ working
all the men they can secure. The
Slate Creek Company is employing 17
men and need 50, and the Malony and
Cleveland Company are working 8 men
- and need 20. There is a shortage of
• about 100 men in the district.
“Though it is impossible to do much
to relieve the trail situation this sea
son,” according to Major Waugh, “it
is expected that enough work will be
done to help the present transporta
tion conditions.”

HELENA, Mont., Aug. 19 (by Asso

SIX THOUSAND
PUPILS ATTEND
NATIVE SCHOOLS
F. L. Forbes, in charge of the Tan
ana branch of the United States fed
eral bureau of education in Alaska,
in speaking of the progress of the
lative children attending the schools
said: “Alaska has two branches of ed
ucation, one in charge of the terri
tory and one under the direction of
Supt. Henderson, dealing with educa
tion of white children; the other
under direction of the federal govern
ment, and dealing with the education
af the Indians and the Eskimos. I
have charge of one of six divisions
handling the natives. The government
has a superintendent for each of the
six districts.
“The education of the natives of
Alaska is quite a problem. The six
listricts have 3,000 native children
attending school. In my district there
ire 440. Two years ago, when I took
charge, the number of native atten
dants in my district was 170. In my
listrict are eight schools and eleven
teachers. There is a. school at each
)f the following points Eagle, Circle,
Fort Yukon, Rampart, Tanana, Ko
;rines, Koyukuk and Nulato.
“Progress is being made with the
;ask of educating the Alaska native,
in most of the schools they are ed
ucated only as high as the fifth
grade. Attention is being paid to
instruction on health and sanitation
as well as to the ordinary school sub
jects. The condition of the natives
from a physical standpoint evidently
is improving. Last year Alaska had
thirty-six more births than deaths
among its natives. We are teaching
them to keep their homes clean, to
wash them out and renovate them fre
quently, to keep plenty of fresh air
circulating in them at all seasons, and
require them to clean up their villages
frequently, and to break up the old
habit of several families living in one
house. We are encouraging with suc
cess the practice of each married !
man keeping his family in one house.
Heretofore an old couple had all their
children and their husbands and all
their grandchildren in one cabin.”
