stock.
Boats are now loading up for
Dime creek in the Snake river and
several men are getting their out
fits together. They are going to buy
most of their supplies down at the
Koyuk as prices in general are more
reasonable than in Nome and in ad
dition the cost of transportation is
saved.
While the tourists who arrived on
the Victoria and leff*on the same
boat are reputed to have bought
everything in sight in the way of
curios in Si. Mikes, a canvas of lo
cal dealers reveals the fact that none
of them left any large amount of

Adolf Escholt is in town looking
up hydraulic material. After pros
pecting for many years in the In
machuk section he discovered pay
on the side hill below the Utica
mine. Last winter he took out a
dump wortli several thousand dol
lars, but he intends to operate the
discovery bj hydraulick means, and
confiirfe his work to the summer
time hereafter.
The Latouche should report itself
today, in the opinion of the Agent
of the Alaska Steamship Co., al
though yesterday nothing was heard
of the steamer with mail for Nome.
The Latouche may go to St Micha
els first for which point the steamer
has a considerable amount of cargo.
In that event it is not unlikely that
the Silver Wave, the coastwise mail
boat may be authorized to tranship
the mail to Nome.
Yesterda> '‘Greek Johnson”, as
Funis Koubukel is better known in
Nome, pleaded guilty by wire
through his attorneyt William A.
Gilmore to the charge of selling
hootch and the U. S. Commissioner
at St. Michaels fined him
$200. This money was paid
over with the costs to the United
States Marshal’s office and Funis
yesterday morning again breathed
the Nome air a freeman.
The schooner Silver Wave left
again yesterday for St. .Michaels.
A hurry-up call from many pas
sengers at St. Michaels who are anx
ious to get over to Nome caused tlie
departure of tlie steamer. The 1
Silver Wave cannot leave for Candle
and other northern points before
the arrival of the Latouche with
mail and therefore it was deter- j
mined to leave lor St. Michaels at
once. Coming up from C’hinik on
the return trip the Silver Wave en- j
countered 'he worst storm yet felt
this season and it faced the heavy
wind and sea all night beating its
way up to Nome.
Jens Madsen who went to Europe
on the same steamer as Berntroff,
the Frederic VIII got to Denmark
all right, but has a harder job gett
ing back owing to the fact that the
Germans are torpedoing everything
in sight. Speaking of the Halifax
delay while the travellers were be
ing searched. Jens said “It gave
many the blues but 1 enjoyed it for
I had some good companions on '
board. The examiners did not
give us much bother. The officers
and soldiers were very accomodating
.\fter 2S days we got to I
Copenhag n . . . . The old city was i
not so gay as the last time I was j
there. The war has put a damper j
on it and what made it look worse j
was that they did not have enough j
fuel to light up with and everything I
closed very early .... In Germany 1
things arc in very bad shape and 1 |
hope they will do as the Russians
have done for the latter have surely !
surprised the world. In Sweden (
things are also very bad .... it
looks as if there will be serious :
trouble .... I am taking things J
easy here and have no definite plan j
for the future and at times I feel •
kind of lonesome .... conditions |
are so different to what the> are in [
America, hut to travel at present is J
too risky.”
