this political subject it may be
mentioned that the fight which the

Copies of Baldy of Nome, by Mrs.
Darling, are now in Nome, and a
perusal of this work will prove even
more delightful than the many
pleasant anticipations that one has
held concerning it. The story is ot
course about Baldy who is a dog—
and he is some dog, sketched with
a vigorous sympathy that places
Mrs. Darling in the front rank of
writers. Reports say that the book
is having a wonderful sale as a
child’s book, as such it having been
primarily published, but, unless one
misses an easy guess, it is likely to
prove even more attractive to grown
ups and Nome grown-ups cannot fail
to enjoy a story shows Nome and
themselves as they themselves and
others see them. In it they will dis
cover Scotty and many other famil
iar names while the description of
the racing days in Nome will surely
prove especially attractive. The
bok is published by the Penn Pub
lishing company, and for sale at
Nome at Hill’s Drug Store: the type
is large and the illustrations very
clever. It is altogether an attractive
and very clever book.
Not in years, three years at least,
has there been such a storm as arose
on Tuesday morning at an early
hour and rapidly increased in viol
ence until high noon when it reach
ed a velocity of thirty miles an hour.
The wind ^as then from the south
east and a heavy cross sea was run
ning from the beginning of the
blow. Operations unloading the
Umatilla had to be discontinued but
the Umatilla rode at anchor until
about noon when finally after dragg
ing its anchor to the westward quite
a distance, the captain determined
that discretion was the better part
of valor and put out to sea, Along
south Front St. the househdISfers
were on the anxious seat owing to
the rapidly rising surf and many
feared that th^re was grim danger
all their work might be shot to
pieces building bulkheads. Several
barges drifted from the moorings
and the last-seen of one of these was
in a speedy drift towards Cape
Darby. The Ernst dredge shut
down on account of the heavy seas
running and the difficulty of swing
ing their liner with the dead men
worried by the surf. But there was
no serious result along the beach to
any of the shipping, both the Gene
vieve and the Trader seeking shelter
in the lee of Sledge Island. The
storm driving up the water almost
completely washed out the new fill
at the Belmoiit Point end of the
Snake river bridge, but this can be
easily repaired when the water goes
down. The barometer was the low
est on record on Monday night, but
rose as fast again, yesterday fluctua
ting in pressure throughout the day.
The gusts were accompanied with
rain storms of unusual violence,
especially towards six o’clock when
the rain beat down with unpreced
ented fury.
