Walter Shields reported leaving
Shaktolik and expecting to be in
Xorvik on February 12. That day
the reindeer fair in that section
would begin and a big attendance
was certain. Natives were coming
from all over to attend the fair
and competition would be very keen
for the different events. After the
Norvik fair. Mr. Shields will leave
for Mary’s Igloo to attend the big
annual reindeer fair in that section
of the country.
The huge caribou reindeer which
has become famous by reason of a
popular photograph of the noble
animal which was owned by
Tom Sequina, has returned home.
It was lost for quite a while and
Sequina has been heap sick ever
since the deer which he has owned
for fourteen years strayed from the
fold It appears that the big rein
deer visited a number of herds but
finding none of his liking came back
The return of the reindeer was ce
lebrated with a big blow-out on the
Buckland.

A story that reads like the Peg
Leg or other lost mine is being po
pularly connected with the trip of
Bursik and M’Intosh to the wilds of
the farthest Kobuk. This story
which was vouched for by an Indus
trial Worker informant says that a
native named Dave Black while in
Nome circulated a story to the effect
that he knew a place away off in
the far distant KobuK where the
nuggets were as plentiful as the
pebbles on the beach and as large j
as Jonathan apples. He volunteered |
to show the place providing. It was
provided and the Bursik and
M'Intosh staking expedition finan
ced by many prominent men was
the result: the dog teams sallying j
forth with the native to get in on
this wonderful new bonanza.
Whether it was genuine or whether
Blake the aborginal discoverer want
ed to get the prices of commodities
due to a sudden and unwonted in
flux of gold rise to unheard of
heights~if the greatest stampede in
the history of the north becomes an
accomplished fact, the name Kobuk
will be one to conjure with. If not
—then Dave Black is a son of a
gun.
Patronize the Nome Tailoring Co.
Why? Because they do the best
work, and- are the only pioneer
tailors in Nome.
A survey of the mining in this |
district shows that prospecting dur- |
ing the wim.r has been greatly
scattered. T: > concentrated atten- I
tion notieeab in certain favored j
localities like Dexter last year for j
Instance is not very much in evid- !
ence. Like lasr year there are a good !
number still taking out large and
small dumps on Center creek. On i
Dexter too. several dumps are mak- |
ing their appearance but there is no ^
such activity as fast season. A
noticeable improvement for the bet
ter is on the -ubmarine where on a
new channel several are lined up ;
and with nothing very rich in sight |
will probably take out fairly good
dumps. Th» old third beach line
centering around the Diamond L lias j
had lots of notice this winter, but
outside the Diamond L itself where ,
Frawley and Co. are taking out a
nice dump no very great improve- \
ment is not- cable as the season ad
vances. Close by the Scandia. Bo
lander is drifting and is in what is
considered fair pay. Lindberg and
Hager arc sinking on the Bessie !
and with results unknown so far.
Between tin Bessie and Little creek
on’ outfit is doing work on the
Mabel Bench while on the Three Star
Sutherland and partners are making ;
good headway. There are about
the same number of wage workers |
employed as last year.
