ITEMS OF GENERAL INTEREST
The Victoria and City of Puebla
cleaned up their quota of old timers,
hut there are still numbers anxious:
and willing to “get out" if only they'
possesed the wherewithal.
The local mosquito fh-et is now rap
idly diminishing in numbers, the ma- ■
Jority of the little vessels having been 1
hauled up on the beach to their winter |
quarters and are dismantled for the
season. i
This continued soft spell is still en- '
abllng some of the operators to con
tinue to hoist and sluice their pay dirt,
but general indications along the beach
line show that but little work is con
templated for the winter.
Dr. Wilkins was a passenger on the
Puobla.
Tom Smith, an old timer and mem
ber Of Local 240 W. F. M., left for
Seattle on the City of Puebla. |
Dr. Ramsay of Council City is at
present in Nome. He will leave for
the outside on the steamship Senator
on a well earned vacation he will
spend in the states.
Chas. Dempsey of the firm of Rig
ley and Dempsey, Council, arrived in
Nome last week. He has sold his in
terest In the roadhouse and will be a
passenger to the outside on the Sena- |
tor. Messrs. Rigley and Dempsey had
a fairly successful season this year.
Groceries have followed the suit of
tile coal and prices have been sent a
soaring by those controlling the sup
plies in our delightful city. Wages
have not been correspondingly in
creased .
F. Broomer of the Tacoma grocery
has moved over to his new premises,
where the accommodation is more am
ple for the large stock of new. goods
h has imported this season.
Over 200 members of Local 240 have
taken out withdrawal cards and left for
the outside. Notwithstanding thi
lnrg-> amount the number of new mem
bers shows a handsome balance in
favor of the union.
Dan Donovan and M. P. Kelly left
Monday for Solomon to do representa
tion work on their properties in that
district.
About 17> Lap-, including Jufot Llnde
berg. were passengers on the Puebla.
They are bound for their Igloos in
Northern Europe.
Judge A, Z. Watson was a passen
ger on the Puebla. Rumor has it that
he left with agunny sack full of wild
cat propositions to enable the laundry
girls of the East to get rich in a
hurry.
RATHER COMPLICATED.
The Census, Taker: "Your name
mum?”

“I've been divorced. At present my
name Is Mrs. ones in this state. In
sevral states It Is Miss Smith, my
maiden ame, and in three states it is
Mrs. Brown, my first husband's name.”
“This your residence, mum?”
“I eat and sleep here, but I have a
trunk in a neighboring state, where I
am getting a divorce from my present
husband.”
"Then you are married nt present?”
"I am married in Texas, Now York
and Massachusett; divorced in South
Dakota, Missouri, Alaska, Oklahoma,
and California: a bigamist In three
other states and a single woman in
eight other.”—Chicago Tribune.

SATAN’S HOME.
By Agnes Thekla Fair.
They tel mo you have all the coal, and
all the coke as well;
They say you need it, so you can keep
the Angels whore they fell.
Some preach to us of your fireplace
where the embers softly glow;
'Tls always soft and cosy is the weath
er down below.
How did you come to get this coal and
you not in the trust?
Tons and tons! They say your coal bins
almost bust.
The winter's hero, we can't buy coal,
the prices are so high;
It may be cheaper in the spring, or tie
"sweet bye and bye.”
Truly, Mr. Satan, you're the wisest
man I now
Won't you toll us shivering wretches
what to do to get below?
