j An error, no doubt unintentional,
| on the part of our contemporary
j said that a majority voted against

j which was held, by the miners union.
i That is not correct, the larger vote
j east was in favor of the general
: strike.

The Pioneer Mining Co had an
other break in its ditch a day or
so ago and tho quantity of water
rolling down Anvil was only limited
by the capacity of the ditch which
is carrying a small head these days.
Herbert and Oberg, two well
known Caiulleitos, with a small
launch managed the almost im
possible feat of coming down from
Candle thu tho ice fields that block
ed the Arctic from Capo Espenberg
to Cape Prince of Wales. The work
was a feat which would be tackled
by few men, but at least one of
them had an inspiration in the task
which nothing could daunt.
A small fire on Friday called out,
tho Fire Department to the cabin J
of Mike Garrity where a spark:
lodging in tho roof had started j
things doing. The damage was
trifling.
The steamer Latouche is now dis-1
' charging freight at Teller. It will
I take at least three days for this
j steamer to discharge at Grantley
| Harbor after which the captain
j thinks that ho will have very little.
j trouble making his wray to Kotzebue
j Sound ports.
The Arctic, of the U. S. Mercan
tile Co’s fleet, is still reported as
on the way from Candle to Nome,
tee is expected to seriously impede
this ship.
Reports of quite an important.
political nature were current yes-}
terday but an effort to son if they,
; wore founded upon fact resulted in '
I tracing them directly to the door
of that unreliable jade Dam Rumor.
’ Ros and Nicholas have now open
ed up their emporium which Tor the
scope of its business is unapproaclied j

which is going some.

down on the boat. Mrs William
Marx aid two children, Miss Cather

John Fclklc who returned the
other day with the chartered schoon
er Jewel Guard from a trading
trip to St Lowronce Island, makes
the statement that they were hardly
disturbed by ice. Ho declares that
there was no ice. Tho steamer Vic
toria which skirted the capes of this
island was practically in dee all
the time, but Fe’kel says that had
tho Victoria gone still further to
the westward, it would have met
with wide open water which would
have brought the steamer up to
Slfrige island, and a lead would
have taken them into Nome without
trouble. Starting off shortly after
the Victoria arrived Fclkel went
thi scourse and had clear sailing
all tho way to St Lawrence. He
got quite a few fox ckins, lots of
bonb and a considerable amount of
other skins and ivory, in fact made
a most successful trip.

There has been a suspension in the
work of the midnight merchant in
Nome owing to the perennial dis
pute as to the summertime dis
posal of garbage. At the former
meeting of the city council the
Health Officer in conjunction with
the Health and Relief Committee of
the council designated a place where
on garbage might be ' dumped. A
few days ago because he dumped
elsewhere below the milk ranch to
be exact the scavenger was arrested.
He claims ho was in any event out
side the city limits and pending more
definite action by the council au
thorities he declines so far to per
form his functions. It is likely that
with the help of the councilmen and
health officer the matter, which is
more important than savory, will
be properly adjusted.
This is a fish story but it’s a fish
story separate from cither salt or
fresh water. Out on the submarine
sonic succulent and fat silversidcs
were hot to richly furnish the table
of a mining camp and the chef
wishing to protect his fish from
decaying bacilli had them placed
down an abandoned shaft. There
the cold atmosphere acted as a
preservative and had the most mod
ern cold storage plant backed off
the map. So far so good but when
the cook came to raise his finny
treasure from the shaft, one of the
fish dropped to the bottom out of
the sack. Thereupon a miner was
called, upon to go over the top and
down to the bottom to rescue the
salmon. He was lowered in a bosun’
chair but when he got to the bot
ton, the accumulated carbonic acid
gas suffocated him and he dropped,
out of the chair unconscious as tho
fish alongside of him. This alarmed
the chef who secured another miner!
as a volunteer. The latter went I
down and seizing the asphyxated j
miner by tho coat was being hoisted !
to the surface. Just, as in- neared ]
the top, tlio coat gave v/r.y and the j
unconscious man dropped almost
sixty feet to the bottom. The fish
story had almost a tregie ending?
Down again went the miner and
this time, he secured tho unconscious
man more firmly and la.uded. him on
top. He was brought to, and al
though many minutes unconscious
and although lie had dropped down
the sjiaft sixty feet, ho felt as
skookum as a man could possibly
feci who has be n juggling a murk
stick steadily for several months;
no bones broken, not a scratch nor
abrasion to mark the result of a
fall. The fish was worth about
fifty cents, two lives were risked
to recover it, what wore they worth?
