Nome on Fourth
A letter of invitation was sent
Captain Scammel of the U. S. C.
G. Northland, in port here, invit
ing he, his officers, and his crew
to participate in the celebration
of the Fourth, at Nome.
This afternoon a reply was re
ceived from Captain Scammel
saying that they were behind
schedule, and would be unable to
remain in Nome for the Fourth.
He expressed his thanks and
regrets, and it is believed the
Cutter is sailing for Golovin this
evening.
In as much as a ball game
was planned with the Northland
ball team, this left the matter in
doubt for a few hours today, but
the committee assured everyone
there would be a ball game and
that the Little Creek team had
challenged Nome to a game.
Therefore plans are going ahead
with this in mind, so celebrants
can expect an exciting ball game
the afternoon of the Fourth re
gardless. ,
