Yesterday Rowe’s teams were busy
levelling down the streets so that
when the big equinoctial storms ar
rive, there will be less of the beauti
ful to be scraped away.
Milton Storm ran into a bunch of
good pay on the Daisy which is
probably the best dirt located in
some time in this camp. He is en
larging his camp with a view of
increasing his working force.
The Hed Brothers have laid off
their crew on the Mistletoe, the pay
not being extensive enough to keep
a gang at work. They will hoist
the dirt themselves for the present
until the deposit opens up.
The Bangor dredge is having its
fuel oil and supplies hauled out to
the creek at the present time. Re
pair work is being performed on the
dredge so that it will be ready to
start up when the ground is fit to
dig.'
As far as can be ascertained it is
highly improbable that Walter W.
Johnston of the Union Construction
Co. will move the Hobson creek
dredge to Dexter creek. The season
is so far advanced that its removal
is doubtful. It is not impossible
that other parties may operate the
machine after some temporary re
pairs have been effected to it.
The Solomon Derby is now a

Fred Ayer the winner of the race
The time of the winner was four
hours and thirty-two minutes. Se
pala was second with four hours,
forty-one minutes and eighteen and
three-fifth seconds. Downing was
third. Also ran Anderson and
Webb. The track was somewhat ;
heavy in spots, especially to the .
Cape and the last lap was concluded
in a blinding snow storm making ■
the finish especially heavy. The
time taken all in all indicates that
the Nome dogs are not falling off in •
speed. There was considerable bett
ing done, and for the first time in
the history of dog racing, bookmak
ers plied their trade passing in and
out of the crowd on the streets etc., ,
soliciting business.

In order that the exact status
of the Alaska Road appropriation
might be known in Nome, the In
dustrial Worker wired to the Com
mission at Valdez. The following
dispatch speaks for itself: —
VALDEZ, March 10.—The road
appropriation reinserted in Senate
but not passed as army appropria
tion bill did not get action before
the Senate adjourned. This bill in
its entirety will come up in the
extra session, probably in May but
not definitely settled. DAVISON.
It will be thus seen that the ap
propriation may be passed in time
for .active road work after all in the
several divisions. The House had
eliminated the appropriation.

The Hard Times dance by the
Sons of the North was productive of
the largest crowds ever seen in the
Sons of the North Hall, and it was
by all odds the biggest dance in the
way of attendance held this winter.
At that everyone had a tine time
and indeed as usual everyone seems
to enjoy being in overalls except
when the\ have to work in them.
Some of the costumes were unique
and very suggestive of the hard
times that almost everyone has ex
perienced. The music was up to its
usual high standard under the au
spices of such skilled artists as Miss
Johnson and Henry Peterson, while,
the committee took care that other
items of hospitality would not be
lacking. On March 24th a Basket
social will be held, the baskets being
drawn for not auctioned.
News from Marshal received by
mail indicates that the strike on
Disappointment creek is one of
some dimensions. The best runs
ibout five dollars to the foot. Some
proverbially lucky Swedes entered
in old shaft after the freeze up and
sinking the same below the false bed
rock where the original hole had
stopped went twenty feet further
uul encountered tHo pay that bids
?air to make the camp famous one
more summer at any rate. There
ivas quite a rush to get ground in
he vicinity, much to tlie profit of i
Commission >r Moran who cleaned
up s on in fees the first month he
was there after the Strike. All
■ommuuicritions from Marshal
ireathe an optimism which might
lave been expected to follow from
he discovery on Disappointment
which lies just across the divide, a
ow one, from Willow creek where
lueh good money was. taken out
ast summer.
