night however the streams began
to fill and some of the rivers were

The Coast Guard cutter is again
in the roadstead after a cruise
around the Bering on duty.
With the abatement of the storm j
the Nokatak is expected, to return ■
from Dime, while the Amy has been j
expected from Unalakleet at any
time. The Arctic which will carry
mail is also due now from Kotzebue.
Fur buyers say that furs are
showing outside a tendency to de
cline. No reason is offered for this.
The fancy prices which have hither
to prevailed ase said to have been
due to the fact that the enormous
profits which business has been
making for the past few years ha3
wonderfully increased the demand
for luxuries and both furs and dia
monds as well ar other fancy articles
have been in great demand.
As I am called on the August first
•draft I have disposed of my busi
ness the Hill’s Pharmacy.
Any bill outstanding should be
presented for payment and I request
anyone owing mo to settle prompt

At this time I wish to thank the
people of Nome. Their support and
patronage during the past six years
is genuinely appreciated.

The gas ship Flyer returned from
a irading trip to Siberia yesterday
afternoon wirti its hold well stoffsei
with the rich furs and other te
soitn.*! of the land of the Bolane
vikl. The Flyer was nothing daunt
ed by the serf tud made for Sna'ie
r.ver, despite the difficulties of
negotiating the bars and dild suc
• essf'illy enter to discharge Its car,ro.
The work of bringing the Flyer :n
v/us mana'ged the Coast Guards- i
men under the command of Captain ,
Roes who supeintended the operations
and directed the boat thru the heavy
surf and shallow water until it was
moored in safety.
Four Eskimos were rustled up
this morning and given a free auto
ride out to the Pioneer Mining Co
to work for that company. It was
the first time these natives ever had
the pleasure of riding in a joy
wagon. Come to think of it. it's
seldom the white man rustling work
has ever been given an auto ride
out to the scene of operations.
