Erwin Bellows, for the
past number of years, con
nected with work for the
Dry Creek Dredging Com
pany, Joe and Barney Bel
leview, of Nome, received
the sad news yesterday of
the sudden death of his
mother, Mrs. Olive Alger,
at her home in Brattleboro,
Vermont.
Death was a sudden
shock, as she was in good
health up to that time. She
is survived by her son Er
win of Nome, and three
daughters living in Brattle
boro, Vt.
Orville Miller, appeared
before City Magistrate M.
J. Walsh yesterday and
pleaded guilty to the char
ge of ringing in an alarm
box, of the city fire depart
ment, which resulted in a
run to the vicinity of the
Lomen Commercial Co.,
and the discovery of no in
dications of any fire.
His reason he said was
that he tried to get the fire
department on the phone,
failed and then rang the al
arm, in order to have the
police arrest an in toxicated
person who was a menace
to him and his home.
He was fined $75, which
fine w'as suspended on his
good behavior.
Mrs. Nina Boyd was ap
pointed late yesterday to
the position of Marshal of
the Day, for the Women’s
Day Winter Sports Pro
gram to take place this
coming Sunday, and she is
now busy marshaling her
deputies and forces, to take
over control of the city for
that big day. It was fur
ther announced that she
would have numerous com
mittees busy during the
remainder of the week, de
veloping special entertain
ment plans, to occupy the
big crowds expected to wit
ness the events.
President of the Kennel
Club, Sam Taggart, annou
nced this afternoon that 15
prizes for the women’s rac
es were placed on display
in the windows of the
Nome Drug Store, today.
Martin Backstrom, about
5:30 A.M. today noticed
smoke coming out of the
Northern Air Transport of
fice and immediately went
down to the Fire Station
and reported it.
The department respond
ed quickly and in a short
time the fire was extingu
ished, with a possible dam
age estimated by some at
between $500 and $1,000.
The inside of the build
ing was burned consider
ably but vital statistics and
records were not destroy
ed. Officials of the com
pany were unable to ac
count for the cause of the
fire, and the fact that it
took place so early in the
morning, as none of the
employees were about the
place yet. It was believed
that some definite cause
might be fixed at a later
date.
During the time repairs
are being made, the office
will be established in the
home, next door, and to the
rear of the NAT building,
0!* John Teed, their Nome
agent.
