In the U. S. Commissioners court
! yesterday, Tony Martens was fined
I $100.00 or 50 days in duratice vile.
| Members of the Marshal’s office
j captured Tony with liquor in his
i possession (internally and exter
! nally) last Saturday night.
Windy Bill” had another pipe
I dream last night. When he came
| down town this morning, he slob-:
I bered all over himself again. This
| time hia peddled such bunk as; 1
j know that 75 per cent of the work
I ing class in . this community are
i with me (Whew! lie's entitled to
!tho chairmanship in the annanias
j club for coughing up such a peach
: as that.)
Its' also rumored that the vacuum
extractor said, if I could only get
' off my work-bench for a couple of
hours I would clean out both news
paper offices. (Windy; tell us what’s
prevented you from so doing?”)
Evidently, the rub-a-dub-dub means
that he would clean out the rear
end of said offices: He has illus
trated that he is very familiar with
the “canning” business, and we be
lieve he has about sufficient ability
j to efficiently be capable of fulfilling
| such a position.
j ’ (We take the liberty to suggest
j to the professional hot air peddler,
j to conscript a few of his plug-uglies
! for the purpose of taking a straw
vote just to see how elastic his
imagination is in regards to his
popularity in this little burg. >
"Yes Windy, there are also other
so called dynamiters in town, whoi
: are not worth the fuse and caps
| which it would take to blow them
I to H-.”

in tin Pioneer hall. The ent.re

We’ve been asked to announce
that there is big doing for the I
evening of June 19th. A farewell
social entertainment will be given
under the auspices of the Odd Fel
lows and Rebekah’s bidding good
luck and success to the army draft
registrants from the Second Divi
sion. Details will bo published
later.
Crowley’s grocery store was about
the busiest place in town for awhile
last Saturday. It was also a pleas
ure to sec so many of Nome’s
charming housewives so genially
congregated together. And the
abundance of delicious cakes, cook
ies and bread, reminded one of a
first class confectionary parlor.
$115.50 wo Kli of the delicious
oats were disposed of during the
afternoon. Said amount was turned
over to the Rod Cross fund.
The good work of the ladies is
greatly appreciated by the entire
community.
Higgs will bo her sometime in

“Isn't it funny? said Gladys, cur
iously, to her chum, Phyllis. “Fath
er has promised to give me a pair
of diamond earrings if I will stop
having music lessons. I wonder
why?”
"That's strange!” agreed Phyllis.
“But you've never worn earrings,
have you?”
“No. I shall have to get my ears
pierced.”
“That explains it,” said Phyllis,
an innocent smile curving her ruby
lips. “He wants to pay you hack in
your own coin.”

I Word has recently been rece'V^O
I from Point Hope to the effect that

Last Saturday evening the Worker!
Staff had the pleasure of eating a
j piece of a very delicious cake which
was made by Mrs L. Seidenverg.
Said cake was sold to the highest
; bidders (Mrs Tiffany and John A.
i Wilson) for the sum of $5.00. The
monew was turned into the Red
Cross fund.
Miss Orr, one of Nome's most ef
ficient and popular school teachers
was seen upon the streets yesterday.
The lady has been in the Holy
Cross hospital during the past couple j
of weeks or so.
Her many friends will be pleased
to learn she is now conv^-scing.
A couple of mushers who arrived
last evening from near the head
of Nome river reported that the
water in that vicinity is the highest
which it has been at any time of
the year for the past several years
There was at least four feet of
water in Jacobsen's roadhouse, and
the ice is piled between three and
four feet high on the Nome river
bridge. They said traveling to the
Kougarok is almost impossible.
A native, who arrived this morn
iing stated that Salmon Lake and the
ajacent country resembles a chain
of lakes. Ducks and sand-hill
cranes are in abundance up there.
Our creek reporter returned last
evoniing from the vicinity of the
''Gulch." He reported that it af
forded him a considerable amount
of pleasure while observing Louis
Stevenson trying to perform the
function of a common roughneck,
he was shoveling snow from the
Pioneer ditch between Cooper Gulch
and Dry creek. Our informant said
he thought that Louis was then
occupied at a vocation for which
he was apparently adapted, although
judging by the “scientific manner”?
in which he was manipulating the
instrument of torture, he evidently
didn't have a contract to clean out
so many yards per, and presum
ably he did not expect a boss to
slip around once in a while to
glance down his collar, (as they
usualy do) “We hope he’ll stay
with it long enough to realize that
eight hours is sufficient to Consti
tute a day’s work.”

It developed yesterday that lie is
bearing the entire expense of these
! f njoyable affairs himself and when
j interviewed about it stated that he
killed personally every man in gov

one would prefer to be on the firing
line In Franco to the monotony and j
suffering dullness of service here j
,gnd that li esteemed it a privilege I
to contribute what he could to their i
