Harry Pigeon who returned yest

Somehow it was reported that
the Stone outfit that everyone want
ed to hear about during the winter
was coming into Nome next summer
and would take along a large num
bers of horses, construction material
and men to build a road to the first
power site that they have in mind.
An effort to trace this report down
was not successful. Several who
had told the man who told the man,
had heard from the man who heard
it from the man who was told by
the man who heard it from the man
etc., etc. and so on ad infinitum.

the great race run by Leonard Sep

ter, and John Brower, dredge pro
moter, drill expert and contractor,
arrived yesterday morning having
come in over the trail. Miles will
take charge of the work ordained ny
the Alaska Mines Corporation and
they will begin by installing machin
ery on the hull already constructed,
overhauling the Bourben machine
and thoroughly overhauling the
power plant on Bourbon also. lie
will begin work just as soon as be
has time to examine the camp and
supervise conditions . Speaking of
conditions outside he said that
everything was booming with labor
in great demand. Wages were high
but living costs were still higher
and ascending all the time. Most
everyone was busy and the war ord
ers had certainly stimulated business
conditions immensely. John Brower
has extensive drilling contracts on
hand and will lose no time setting
about the work. Harry Bloomfield
who deserted us during the winter
to get a glimpse of grass and pros
perity outside made a remarkably
fast trip and looks none the worse
for his expedition.

cut. the bullet having lodged in the
muscles. I have been up to the
