well patronized by the Reubens and
their girls and the Hall presented as
close a resemblance to a barn as it
was possible to get without actual

While the Solomon Derby is set
for today, reports from down the
line yesterday indicated that con
siderable of a blizzard was blow
ing down around Solomon. If simi
larly stormy weather occurs today
the race will be again postponed.
The difficulty of getting good weath
er now increases as we approach the
vernal equinox which is proverbially
stormy in this as in every other sec
tion. The soft snow that fell yest- 1
erday, too, drifted heavily in places
along the trail.
The people of Nome observe with
anything but satisfaction that the
price of a number of staples are in
creasing perceptibly above the nor
mal winter's gradation but keeping
step with the increase which has
taken place outside. Inasmuch as
these goods were bought at the fall
prices, there is some difficulty in
seeing the warrant for these in- j
creases. Another article that has i
gone up is fuel oil which is now .
fifty cents more a barrel than a
short time ago. If present prices i
are subjected to further increases j
many miners say they will soon |
have to abandon prospecting. Even j
our old friend the Alaska straw- I
berry has been belched up a notch [
or two by the friends of men who j
purvey them.
Commencing tonight and continu
ing every night this week the man
agement of the Dream Theater will
release some of the best attractions
of the winter season, a three reel
feature entitled “The Lighthouse by
the Sea” will be tonights rooster In
conjunction with a firing line
Comedy called “Universal Ike's
Wooing’. On Tuesday night Miss
Marguarite Snow will be seen in a
five reel feature entitled “A Corner
In Cotton”, a picture that outclasses
the ordinary features. Wednesday
night, last chapter and closing act
of the "Diamond From The Sky.”
Thursday night Grand Opening o£
the new secial, “The Adventures of
J. Rufus Wallingford” featuring
Burr Macintosh, Max Figman and
the talented Lolita Robertson, an ell
star aggregation in a picture tiiats
already famous. A big week.
