Patrick Sweeney, U. S.

ael. is an arrival in Nome
on official business, having
made the flight via the
Nome Airways yesterday.
Mr. Sweeney and his bro
ther Tom have for many
years carried on develop
ment work on their mining
properties in the famous
Kougarok section and Sun
set creek in the Nome sec
tion, and their untiring ef
forts for these several
years, it is reported, are to
be rewarded and the claims
will soon become producers
yielding the precious gold
which will help swell the
totals from the Seward Pen
insula section.
Citizens walking down
town from their residences
on the back streets were
much surprised to find the
new sidewalks laid last fall
by the city of Nome, clean

ed of snow, thus making it
much more desirable to use
the sidewalks instead of the
streets, as is the usual cus
tom during the winter mon
ths. Naturally the Nugget
representative noting men
cleaning off the sidewalks
inquired who might be re
sponsible for this thought
ful idea, and after asking
several persons, it was fin
ally found out that U. S.
Marshal Thos. Gaffney had
conceived the idea of giv
ing the prisoners in jail an
opportunity of getting a lit-;
tie open air and sunshine
by allowing them to play
on the side walks of Nome
by the use of a number two
shovel. The prisoners ap
parently seem to enjoy it
as much as thepedestrains.
Tomorrow, Marshal Gaff
ney plans to open up the
sidewalk from First Ave
nue to the Maynard-Colum
bus hospital, which will
certainly be appreciated by
the people in that section.
A. P. Walker of Craig &
Martha Wheeler of Ketchi
kan, were married in the
First City recently at the
apartment of Mrs D. N.
Cambell. Rev. Isacksen of
the Methodist church per
formed the ceremony.
