month ago, expects to enter the Dog
Derby there, during the Ice Carni- j

larceny, to be postponed from 10
a m. today until the same hour to
morrow morning.
This morning Defense attorney
Leroy Sullivan reported to the
court that he would be unable to
attend the session due to illness.
One of the jurors Einar Ullrichson,
also reported that he would be un
able to attend also due to the flu.
The case was postponed until to
morrow morning, but it is not like
ly that proceedings will be able to
go ahead even then due to the flu,
which has apparently spread to a
considerable extent.
The Nome Brass Band, which has
been practicing for the past week
or two met again at 7:30 p m. last
evening in the Fire Hall where a
business meeting and general prac-;
tice was held.
Composed of about fifteen mem
bers now indications are that sev
eral more will be joining as sooni
as they are able to obtain instru-|
ments. Music is being sent for so
that the band library will include
some of the famous marches and
overtures of the world.
The Nome Athletic Club announc-1
ed yesterday they had secured the
Nevada Ballroom for a Benefit
Dance for the Nome Brass Band to
be given next Saturday evening,
March 2nd.
The officers of that organization
stated that outside of expenses in
the staging of the dance the total
sum of money taken in would be
turned over to the Nome Brass
Band, to help place it on its feet,
financially, and be in a position to
equip itself with music, music1
stands, and etc.
i
inose ot you who have passed the
Fire Hall of a Monday evening have
heard some classy band music and
there is one characteristic about it,
that it has plenty of—volume. The
members are working hard to make
the band a real, live-wire organiza
tion, and it is reported that they
may be out in force Saturday even
ing and play a few numbers for the
dancing public.
It is a fine move on the part of the 1
Nome Athletic Club to get behind:
such a movement as this and it is
hoped that the public of Nome will!
also show its support by buying!
tickets and attending.
However a quarantine has been
placed in effect and it is not de
finitely known yet whether a dance
will be allowed Saturday evening.
In any event, the Nome Athletic
Club is planning such an affair as
soon as it will be allowed.
