cally no mining has been done there
this winter owing to the high operat
ing expenses. Only ihree men are re
ported to be working for wages. Some
prospecting has been, carried on but I
owing to the steady and extreme cold j'
the prospectors have been badly hand
icapped. A thorough quarantine was
established as oon as reports were re
ceived that the epidemic was raging j
at Golovin and Nome. The camp con-j
sequently remained free from the in
fluenza. All the horses used by the
freighters were struck by some mys
terious malady greatly resembling the
Flu. Many dances and other enter
tainments were given and the winter
passed quite pleasantly.

intend to return to Dime.

axe smashing the windows.
Kohler altho armed, not wishing to
harm Johnson fieri from the cabin
