While the sublime may be not so
noticeable, after the storm yesterday
around Nome the beautiful was
ipuch in evidence, occasioning con
siderable work with that instrument
of joy known among the poets as a
“number two”.
It is possible that Dan Jones may
not proceed further than Council as
the unexpected failure to make any
road appropriation this year may
exclude Kiana from all work con
templated.

It is stated that the resignation
of Milton R. Luther is now in the
hands of the District Judge, to take
effect on April 1. and it is said that

Arthur C. Brooker who has been
travelling quite a bit around the
country this winter, taking in such
remote precincts as the Casadepaga
etc, has returned to Nome. While
the report that Mr. Brooker had lo
cated a bonanza of exceeding rich
ness is without foundation, he is
reticent as to his travels.
The much remowned tin property
of the Empire Tin Mining Co., bet
ter known as the Barthells property
has been sold at Marshal’s sale under
a lien placed upon the mine and
other real property of the company
by Fred M. Hinton. The property
was bought in by Attorney Frawley
who was legal adviser for Hinton
in the proceedings
Local amateurs are nightly busy
these times rehearsing and studying
up their parts in an elegant pro
duction of “At the End of the Rain
bow” which is planned to be pre
sented with an all star cast on April
14. The play is a very clever one
and as there are several verr able
exponents of the dramatic art in
Nome, the presentation ought to be
very entertaining and success) ut
from every point of view.
The attention of the Worker wan
railed to the manner in which the
report of the time of the Solomon
Derby racers got bawled up. It was
worse than that; it was all shot to
pieces, for the time of day at which
the victorious teams arrived was
given as the actual time in the
event. To correct this is a pleasure
undefiled by any base alloy, and
here it is. Ayer’s actual time was
five hours and fifty-seven minutes,
arriving at 4:32 p. m. Seppala’s
time was six hours, thirty-six mi
nutes and eighteen three fifth se
conds, the actual time of arriving
being 4:41:1-5. Webb who was
third with a running time of
6:50:34 4-5, arrived at 5:35:34 4-5

A Redding, Cal., paper of De
cember 6 records; a barrel of trouble
falling to the iot of a former Nome
mining man named Ed. L. Smith
From the account we we quote in
paft “CHICO— Ed. L. Smith, wide
ly known mining man and dredga
builder, and one of the promoters
of the Trinity Gold Dredging Co.
spent a night in Chico jail, havin';
been arrested twice in three days on
civil warrants charging him with un
justly retaining property after
judgment had been rendered against
him.
The arrests resulted from judg
ments rendered against Smith in
1914 in favor of creditors who sold
him mining machinery, other mate
rial or labor. After the judgments
it is alleged Smith disappeared from
California and went to Alaska rc
taining his stock in the Trinity
company.
Smith’s apprehension is a result
of watchful waiting upon the part
of the attorneys. It is reported
that he kept well under cover situ s
he returned to California". Smith is
well known in Nome for one season
he did considerable dredge construc
tion work and projected a whole
lot more. He was identified with the
Powell designs as to dredging at
one time and had offices in the
same building as E. E. Powell.

Jack London’s masterpiece, "An

suite of the grim strength of its dra

p'eie, botli in fiction and film form,
such as is seldom offered to the pub
lic. Mr. Bosworth’s interpretation
of “Naas” brings to the screen an
unusual figure, portrayed with al:
the gripping strength.and emotional

master of. The big picture is a
startling creation and an attraction
you can't afford to miss. First
