ALASKA REINDEER MEAT MAYIPPEARON MARKET EXPLOITATION ATTEMPTED TO SCHOOL Of TELEGUH NOW LOATDINARCADEI 17 1 -- i SAVE SUPPLY OF BEEF The Sy Ross New York, Feb. 13.-The exploiting of reindeer meat, particularly on the Pacific coast, will be undertaken on a large scale this season, in the cam- paign to save beef for shipment abroad. Alaska will be able to furn- ish the larger part of the meat re-, quired by the cities of the Pacific, coast, it is believed, and efforts are be- ing made to encourage the Alaskan reindeer industry, which has grown enormously the last few years. Gives Indians Vocation "The industry has given the Alaskan Indian a vocation and made many of them prosperous," says an official bul- letin. "The total valuation of the herds in June, 1916, was $2,232,843. ,Until recent years the industry has been confined to the natives and Lap- landers. White men have organized a company at Nome and now have sev- eral thousand deer. Reindeer fairs are held annually, as cattle shows are in the States.", Mexico Bars Tubercuar Cattle Mexico City, Feb. 13-The govern- ment has decided to enforce strictly measures to prevent the importation into Mexico from the United States of tubercular cattle. It is asserted that the bringing in of diseased cattle from north of the Rio Grande, where the American meat inspection service ,makes their slaughter impossible, has caused epidemics in Mexico. Lab.

AFTERNOON CLASS ORGANIZED FOR STUDENTS JUST E- ROLLING The Michigan School of Telegraphy has opened its offices and class rooms at 238 Nickels' Arcade for the 30 stu- dents who have elected the operators' course now being conducted. Twelve sets of telegraph instruments have been installed, and the first class has been practicing the Morse code for about a week. Night and Day Classes Mr. H. C. Baumgardner, manager of the local Western Union office, is in charge of the school. He is assisted by Mr. George Sweet, an experienced operator who was manager of the Western Union for 20 years. A night class meets from 7:30 to 10 o'clock five days each week. The enrollment in this section has been closed because of the large number twishing to take the work at this time. A new day class meeting from 4 to 6 o'clock five days a week is now being organized. An instructor will be at the offices every afternoon this week to take en- rollments of new students. The tui- tion fee is $35 for the eight months course of instruction. The day class will be limited to 20, and the list will probably be filled before Sunday. Nere Instruments Coming More instruments have been ordered but the government is securing every available one, and the school has had some difficulty in securing the prop- er sets. Another shipment is expected soon, however The classes are com- pletely equipped at present, but with the added enrollment more sets will be needed. Two instructors are in charge of the sessions of each class. Telegraph operators are at a prem- ium in the United States army and other government service, as well as in the commercial lompanies. The signal corps will gladly accept grad- uates of the course here, and they will probably be given the rank of sergeant upon enlisting. The Western Union district commercial superinten- dent, Mr. E Boning, has expressed his approval of the school, and the company is partially supervising the work. CITY MAY INSTAlL EXTRA DRAINS TO FORESTALL FLOOD In order to safeguard the city from Pfoods such as those resulting from Tuesday's thaw, the city drain of- ficers have put many men to work thawing out sewers about the city and preparing for the next thaw. The need for extra storm drains has been recognized and the council will pro- bably take action on the matter at an early date. No great damage has as yet been reported. It is believed at phe drain office that considerable dam- age would have resulted had not the temperature lowered late Tuesday afternoon. CAPTAIN PULLINGE R RELATES EXPERIENCES AT THE FRONT Capt. B.

H. Wild Company LEADING MERCHANT TAILORS State Street r_. AT THE GARRICK "The Man Who Came Back", one of the most interesting and gripping dramas toivisit Detroit in several seasons, will remain over at the Gar- rick during the coming week. John Fleming Wilson possesses the peculiar faculty of weaving into his stories red-blooded life, and heart in- terest, and in its adaption to the stage the spirit of the thing has remained unchanged. Though in one scene the play is frankly sensational, it is not gruesome or depressing and there is a clean cut note of comedy ever pres- ent. "The Man Who Came Back" tells the story of a young man who has been .brought up in luxury until his father ;finally tires of his idleness and cuts him adrift without a cent. The boy is sent to San Francisco where he meets a cabaret singer, the beautiful ;Marcelle. The net scene takes place in an opium den in Shanghai where he again meets Marcelle who has gone down the ladder, via drink and opium. The remaining two scenes are devoted to his regeneration, not one of heorics, and the play ends happily. Mary Nash ,s very charming in the role of Mar- celle. AT THE )VHITNEY "The Marriage Question', which comes to the Whitney on Sunday, Feb. 17, is a novelty play that discusses tbe marriage question from every tngle. The play is the work of Ralph Kettering and Lorin Howard. The production is under the direc- tion of Rowland and Howard, who will be remembered as the producers of "Which, Shall I Marry?", and a "Daughter of the Sun." AT THE ARCADE. "Magda", featuring Clara Kimball ,Young, to be shown at The Arcade to- Aay, is an adaptation of Herman Su- dermann's drama. This play had a successful run at the Rialta theater, ,New York, where the feature was de- cidedly well received. Edward Kim- ball, Miss Young's own father, plays the part of her father.
