ville. Captain Lathrop has donated
the theatre and the expense for get
ting up the affair was nominal and the
result should be a neat sum for the
Alaska Labor Union to be turned over
to the building fund. The first num
ber of the entertainment starts
promptly at 8 o’clock and the princi
pals of the different numbers are in
such splendid training that the whole
affair should go off without any un

dance. Punch will be served and ex
tra good dance music, consisting of a

cured. The committee has asked The

mission will be 50 cents to all and
that the dance starts at 9 o’clock to
morrow night at Robarts Hall.

him and he has about come to the con- :
elusion that Kaiser has been either '
stolen or foully dealt with. The mar- !
shal’s office has been duly notified and I
several suspicious looking parties are j
under surveillance. To make the mat- |
ter interesting, Andy has offered a j
substantial reward for the safe and j
sound return of 'Kaiser.

LACK OF FUNDS DELAYS I
THE MATANUSKA SCHOOL j
The farmers of the Matanuska val- j
ley are endeavoring to get a district j
school in the neighborhood of Finger j
Lake, but so far without success. J. |
A. Whitaker, secretary of the Farm- j
ers’ Association, has been in town for !
the past week in the interest of the j
school and said that the people of j
that vicinity were naturally anxious i
for school advantages. The associa- !
tion has taken the matter up with the j
clerk of the court, Mr. Lang, who ad- |
vises them that he had been in com- I
munication with the governor at Ju- j
neau, who advises as follows: “In- j
advisable to establish any more school j
districts until further advised from I
this office as funds have been exhaust- j
ed and 17 districts heretofore estab- \
lished are not yet provided for.” Mr.
Lang further advises that under these
circumstances it is inadvisable to es
tablish a school district at Finger
Lake at this time.
Secretary Koch will bring the mat
ter before the Chamber of Commerce
at the regular meeting tomorrow
night and try and devise some plans
to help the people of the Matanuska
valley get the school.
BANK STATEMENTS
MAKE FINE SHOWING
The pulse of a community is judged
from the deposits and statements of
its local banks. The statements of
both the Anchorage banks appear in
today’s paper and the showing is a
great credit to the institutions, that
show a total deposit of approximately
three-quarters of a millions dollars.
This is certainly a remarkable
showing for a community just cele
brating its first birthday and with
neither bank a year old. This gives
a per capita standing of virtually
$195.00 on the basis of a population
of 4,000. Many of the old' settled
communities can not equal this show
ing, that speaks especially well for the
thrift of the citizens of Anchorage.
THE COMING RECITAL.
What will surely be the best musi
cal program as yet given in Anchor
age, will be heard at the Presbyterian
church next Friday evening at 8
o’clock. There will be no admission
fee. The program will be varied and
each number will be of exceptional
merit.
NOTICE.
There will be a meeting of the La
dies Altar Society in the Anchor Club
Rooms, in the Empress Bldg., at 2:30
p. m., Tuesday, Nov. 14th. All mem
bers urged to attend.
