An adverse proceedings has beer
filed by Geo. B. Grigsby as attorne>
for Chas L. Ross against the Pioneer
Mining Co. in the matter of the ap
plicated of the latter company for
a patent for the Tundra Lake Asso
ciation claim. The Tundra Lake Asso
ciation is that upon which a couple
of winters back Nugget Johnson was
supposed to have found such a bo
nanza, but which did not prove sc
startlingly rich after all.
The Alaska Road Commission ir
this section is figuring upon further
extensive road work and a crew will
go out today to Glacier where the
next road improvement work is de
termined upon. The commission
will repair the Anvil-Glacier road
from thence tp Snake river. It is
believed that the increased freight
ing which has to be done in these
sections warrants the construction
work about to be undertaken,
Yesterday considerable supplies and
camp utensils were being gathered
together to be hauled out by Rowe’s
teams today.
It is reliably stated that the whole
sale liquor dealers are refusing cre
dit to saloons in Alaska this year,
insisting that the liquor men come
through via the bank for all wet
goods supplied. Reports from a
variety of places indicate that the
referendum this fall will be gener
ally for prohibition, and that there
after Congress will enact legislation
will place this territory on the water
wagon for good and all. The whole
sale liquor men read the handwrit
ing on the wall and are taking no
chances.
Tonight the Dream will present
Mme Petrova in her famous play
‘The Vampire”. This is the first
ipearance of this famous beauty in
S'ome, and incidentally the first
Metro Feature shown in Alaska,
rhis is a high-class production and
the gowns worn by Mme Petrova
ire creations of Worth, Paris. The
story which teems with interest,
shows many beautiful scenes of
Washington and New York. In one
scene President Wilson and his
cabinet take part. Regular admis
sion of 25 cents will prevail.

Yesterday afternoon the jury dis
,greed in the case of the United
Itates versus Deyette although
vhere the difficulty came in was
lot apparent from the evidence,
-he government witnesses were
I’Intosh who made the complaint,
Irs. Fountain and Geo Bond. lor
he defense were Deyette, M. E.
terr and Frank Millet;. All there
vas to this case as shown in the
vidence was that Kerr rented the
abin from M’lntosh and the renter
tad taken in Deyette. Kerr went
o cook on a mining claim and when
bsent M’lntosh locked the cabin,
nd Deyette on returning from work
,roke it open. O. D. Cochrane de
ended Deyette.
All miners report that ptarmigan
are very rare birds indeed this sum
mer and hardly a flock is to be
seen anywhere. Reports from all
over Seward Peninsula show this
condition and the local naturalists
are hard put to it to discover an ex
planation. The natives say that
similar scarcities of ptarmigan have
already occurred, but the birds
afterwards came back. Other ob
servers say that two years ago the
ptarmigan flocked together like mi
gratory birds and later in the winter
were not to be Been. Any way for
two years now ptarmigan have been
hard to find and the shootists have
had to walk many weary miles
among the willows without even
finding one lone bird to. test their
skill upon. The disappearance is
certainly an interesting fact would
be well worth explaining properly.
Yesterday afternoon O. H. Flow

Frank O’Connor returned Wednes
day night from a tour of the Coun
cil anil Solomon district. He re
ports that everyone is working in
Council and while things have been
more active all seem satisfied with
I the outlook. He mentions with a
I chechacoe's interest the fact that
j the ice still lingers on Fox river
I and they had to drive several miles
j over it en route to Council. It ap
| peared that the ice would remain to
I some extent in some places all sum
| mer on the river. The experience
is a rare one and shows the severity
of the past winter in these parts as
nothing else could.
The fine loud Victoria weather
that has been prevailing for the past
two days has greatly interfered with
shipping and at the present time the
roadstead is practically clear of all
craft and the white caps have the
rolling deep all to themselevs. Even
the Victoria is delayed and advices
received yesterday announced that
the steamer was unable to load ow
ing to adverse weather. Agent Car
roll is on board but despite his
prayers for better weather condi
tions, the Gods seem obdurate. The
Silver Wave and Arctic will load up
for St. Michaels and way points just
as soon ns the clerk of the weather
permits.
Jos. Cliilberg is out with a timelj
suggestion. He points out the fact
that Nome is now honored by the
presence of scientific men who took
no small part in the Stefannsson
expedition which has already ac
quired fame on two continents. Yet
Nome seems unaware that the town
is harboring men who have done
science, and, in doing science, the
world considerable service by their
work up north. For Stefannsson
the world has praise and honors re
served, but for these men whose
patient work under considerable
difficulties and not a little danger
has contributed to the needed in
crease of the world’s scientific
knowledge, proper recognition will
possibly never be extended. There
fore Mr. Chilberg thinks Nome
should honor by some means the
members of the Stefannson expedi
tion now in our midst as men who
have done something worth while.
The suggestion seems a good one.
If a two by four promoter with
ability to distribute bull in generous
quantities disembarked in our fair
port, every junk dealer in the city
would be jumping sideways to get
a handshake from the man of hot
air. Why not honor real men?
The citizens of the Sandspit, the
municipality’s Cinderella, are again
complaining at the neglect of the
city which has sought to cast them
off. The scow across the river dur
ing this high water is only to be
approaches by those having rubber
boots as the water is above the
point of embarkation and there is
no suitable arangement for holding
the rope and they have to fish it
from the water and mud half the
time. They are now getting their
heads together and have come to tfie
conclusion that they will build their
own bridge. They will pay no taxes
any longer to a city would disown
them and instead will pay it into a
fund of their own, and with these
moneys have a good swing bridge
erected which will enable them to
cross dry shod over the water. They
have a pile of grievances against
the Nome council. Without' fire
protection, having no lights, denied
a proper bridge, supplied only with
a wretched make shift of a ferry
boat, they can stand the agony no
longer and are about to fly the flag
of municipal rebellion.
