The number of high school students
here is increasing very rapidly. We
now have 14.
Harriet Maltby has been absent two
days, owing to a slight illness.
We all are anxiously waaing foi
tl e new school to be completed, as in
the old school house it is very cold
and uncomfortable these winter days.
The high school students will give
their first social event of the year Fri
day evening at the home of Dr. J. L.
McBride. The students are planning
for these evenings every two weeks.
Maude Leech, one of our former
students, visited school yesterday.
The students in the high school
very much appreciated the new books
that came on the last Crook. Also
the pupils in the grades are enjoying
their new readers.
The fifth and sixth grades and the
children who are in Miss Bennett’s
room, are corresponding with a class
in Shelton, Connecticut. The children
had their pictures taken while on skiis
ahd also with their dog teams, so
they could send their pictures to their
correspondents.
Everyone in school is very glad to
learn that Percy Arbuckle is improv
ing. We all hope that he will get
well soon, so he can return to school.
The algebra class is now struggling
with the mysteries of fractions.
The German students are now
studying “Gluck Auf.”
• The members of the history class
were very much disappointed in not
getting their new books.
The English class is now studying
Shakespeare’s “As You Like It.”
SANITARY REGULATIONS.
The attention of the residents of the
townsite of Anchorage is again called
to the sanitary regulations requiring
that all ashes and garbage be placed
in a covered fly-proof can, the can to
be so located as to be easily accessible.
The garbage wagon now operated
by the townsite office will be con
tinued, and the expense incurred there
by will be recovered by quarterly as
sessment levied against all lots within
the townsite. The lots within the
business district will be charged at
twice the rate of lots in the residential
district.
It will be the endeavor of the town
site department to make collections
three times a week in the business dis
trict, and once a week in the resi
dence districts. Parties not receiving
this service will please notify the
townsite office. Lot owners will be
required to furnish garbage cans of
sufficient size to contain their garb
age and refuse from one collection to
another.
As it is the intention of the town
site office to make this garbage collec
tion a permanent service, and to se
cure a thorough collection of all garb
age, the co-operation of all residents
of thetown will be appreciated.

from 4,936 precinct out of 5,717 gave:
For prohibition, 324,482; against, 449,
465. For liquor restriction, 335,534;

LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Nov. 8.—This
state remained “dry” by an over
whelming majority of the vote cast in

bition, was defeated by probably 20,
000 on the face of incomplete returns
available tonight.
OMAHA, Nov. 8.—Prohibition car
ried in Nebraska by a majority esti
mated from 20,000 to 40,000.
CHICAGO, Nov. 8.—Four states

tory by Tuesday’s election. Michigan,
South Dakota, Nebraska and Montana,
from later returns, appear to have
voted for prohibition. In addition
Florida elected a prohibition-inde
pendent governor and Arkansas de
feated an anti-prohibition amend
ment. California remained in the wet
column.
MISSOURI GIRL IS WEI)
TO SOLDIER ON BORDER
LARADO, Tex., Nov. 7.—A mar
riage ceremony performed over 1,200
miles of telegraph wire, with two tel
egraph operators acting as proxies,
united last night Private Byron J.
| Linhart, company B, Second Missouri j
I infantry, stationed here, and Miss;
Ruby Swartz in ' her home town of j
Butler, Mo. The rites of the Epis-;
copal church were used.
Preliminary to the wedding the of
ficiating clergymen in Laredo and
Butler entered into a telegraphic
conversation to ascertain the official
i standing of each other in the church
and their authority to perform the
i ceremony.
Linhart .accompanied by the Rev.
C. W. Cook, appeared at the Larado i
office of the Western Union Telegraph :
ocmpany at 8 o’clock last night for
1 the unique ceremony. At the same
I hour Miss Swartz, accompanied by
Rev. E. M. Talbot and Mrs. Captain ;
Edward E. Clark, the bridesmaid ar
rived at the telegraph office in Butler.
The telegraph operators handled mes-!
sages directly between the two places
embxodying the full marriage cere- j
mony of th eEpiscopal church, where- j
in both bride and groom signifiedj
their acceptance of each other as lif« '
partners.
After the telegraphic ceremony
Linhart was waylaid and pelted with
rice by his brother guardsmen here,
and later in the evening was chariva
ried by a brass banad from one of the
Missouri regiments.
Linhart stated last night that no
arrangements had been made yet for
a hmoneymoon.
CUPID IN POWDER KEG
IS DISCOVERED BY GIRL
KENVILLE, N. J., Nov. 7.—Henry
Huberman, an employee at the Her
cules Powder Works, recently inscrib
ed his name and address on the face
of an old broken watch and dropped it
into a keg of smokeless powder which
was to be shipped to England.
This little incident may mean a
wife for Huberman, who received a
letter the other day from a young
English woman working in a muni
tion factory at Newcastle-on-Tyne and
inviting Huberman to correspond,
which he has done.
The letter was from Miss Jean
Bump.ton of 56 Hunter’s road, Spit
tal Tongues, Newcastle. The time
piece, it is believed, was discovered
by Miss Bumpton as she was filling
shell cases with the explosive.

FIRE DESTROVS
VALDEZ ROME
(Valdez Prospector.)
At 9:16 Friday night the Treat
house on lower McKinley street was
discovered to be in flames and an
alarm sent in. The fire department
responded promptly, but the fire had
gained such headway before being dis
covered that the efforts of the fire
men to extinguish the blaze were
fruitless and the building and contents
were entirely destroyed. A house be
longing to Gus Dgarf adjoining, was
badly scorched by the heat.
The house was occupied by A. G.
Stall and family. Mrs. Stall and the
children were absent, attending the
children’s party given at the Every
man’s clubhouse, and as a conse
quence nothing was saved, the family
losing everything they possessed ex
cept the clothing they were wearing.
Mr. Stall had left town two days pre
viously, expecting to be gone for sev
eral days.
Wm. Caswell, who was the first to
reach the building, states that the
whole interior of the house was in
flames. Thinking the family at home
he forced the front door, but was
driven back by a rush of flames. He
noticed, however, that the stovepipe
was down in the front room, which
leads to the supposition that an ex
plosion of gas may have occurred in
the stove, which disarranged the pipe
and set fire to the surrounding wood
work.

Mr. and Mrs. Stall lost everything
they possessed, and Mrs. Stall and her
children were compelled to pass the
night at a hotel. So far as can be
learned they carried no insurance on
their personal effects and their loss is
a heavy one.

He Had No Bank Account
He had some money—but he had no Bank_
count. He could not see the need of one. He
had a splendid chance to enlarge his business
and make big money. He had not enough cash
on hand. He was unable to borrow any from a
Bank, because as he kept no Bank Account the
Bank knew nothing about his financial respon
sibility.
