If the plans of the school board are
carried out the Seward school build
ing will be modernized and repaired
before the beginning of the next term.
The Board asks that another story be
added to the present building and the
lower stories gone over and made
more habitable by storm window's
and other additions.
With the repairs advocated by the
Board Sew'ard can have an accredited
high school which will insure many
families moving in to town in the win
ter, and will also greatly benefit the
local students who otherwise will be
forced to go outside for higher educa
tion.

ter part of the season for the pur
pose of taking on a cargo of fuel oil.
A newspaper received here from
San Francisco bearing date of April
27, gives the following information
concerning oil activities in this sec
tion:
“The H. F. Alexander sailed this
week with a dozen or more of Cali
fornia’s oil well experts wTho are
bound for Alaska. Additional experts
from this territory have booked pas
sage at the local office of the Pacific
Steamship Company for Seattle on
other vessels of the Jine to sail with
in a few days. These men will go to
Seward and proceed to the Chicka
loon district, near the government
railway, where prospects for oil are
very good.
“E. G. Grant McMicken, now' at Se
attle, passenger manager for the Pa
cific Steamship Company, says that
there may be an unusual travel of oil
men to the north territory this sum
mer.
“Oil rigs and other apparatus to be
used in prospecting are to be shipped
north in the near future as big oil
operators such as the Standard Oil
Company and the Associated Com
pany are now drilling on leases.
“It is understood that the General
Petroleum Company will start active
work in that territory as soon as the
equipment can be shipped.
Oscar Anderson wrho arrived on the
Evans from the westward left for
Anchorage on this morning’s train.
Herman Grimm of Skagway has
written to the local police authorities
asking for information concerning his
son, Victor Grimm. wrho was last em
ployed in Ketchikan and where he
w*as last heard from about a month
ago. Young Grimm is described by !
his father as being 24 years of age,
5 feet 10 inches in height, browm hair
and of a ruddy complexion.
Chief of Police Martin Laning has
a letter for Grimm and anyone know'
ing his whereabouts is asked to^com
municate with local authorities. Vic
tor formerly lived in Seward, w'here
his parents owrned the Skagw'ay
House, across from the new’ Teeklen
burg Building.
E. E. Chamberlin, who owns one of
the show places in Seward, has secur
ed a large quantity of tulip bulbs from
Holland and is planting them on his
small ranch in the north end of town.
Four hundred bulbs will be set out
Four hundred bulbs were secured on
the first order and these are being
transplanted as rapidly as possible,
and are growing nicely. Mr. Chamber
lin believes that bulbs will do. well
in this climate, and will give the ex
periment a thorough trial. As the
temperature here is less cold than that
of Holland there is no reason why
Seward cannot supply the rest of the
Territory with bulbs.
Cole McDougall was appointed fore
man of the new road to the Jesse Lee
