considerable time may elapse before
he will be able to attend to his duties.
The citizens are requested to com
ply strictly with the City Health Or
dinance, s<oh compliance being ab
solutely necessary to stamp out the
epidemic whoch as taken so many
lives in this locality. At a meeting
of the Citizens Health Committee
steps were taken to inspect all resi
dences and business houses to see to
the strict inforcement of the Health
ordinance.

Chas Olson who was charged by
Coleman Griffin with larceny from a
dwelling had a preliminary hearing
in the United States Commissioners
Court, Thursday afternoon. After
examining a number of witnesses, the
defendant was held to appear before
the Grand Jury. Bail was fixed at
$750.. Tom Evans and A1 Nicholson
acted as bondsmen.
Abrahamson and Kinney returned
from Eldorado where they have been
engaged in burying seventeen natives
who died there from the influenza.
The native village contained original
ly thirty inhabitants, thirteen of them
leaving when the epidemic broke out.
Some of these have been located
at the Holy Cross Hospital here
while a few of them are as yet unac
counted for. Tautook the Chief
Reindeer herder of the Bureau of Ed
ucation who was living at Eldorado
at the time the epidemic struck the
native village there, has up to date
not been located. Whether he, after
leaving has died in the hills some
where or has joined some other
herders is not known, nothing has
been heard from him since he left
Eldorado.
According to a list compiled by act
ing Superintendent Dyfed Evans of
the Bureau of Education, 461 Es
kimos have died at Nome and the sur
rounding districts from influenza. 175
natives are reported to have died at
Nome up to date, 7 at Safety, 17 at
Chinik, 4 5 at Solomon, 37 at Sinrock,
28 at the villages at Penny and Crip
ple rivers, 17 at Eldorado, 14 at Cape
Nome, 65 at Teller and 55 at Mary’s
Igloo. Reports received from the
last two places state that the disease
Is still unchecked there and the mor
tality list may have increased since
then. Whether the epidemic has
reached the mission at Cape Prince
of Wales has not been ascertained as
yet. Should the Cape natives have
bepn stircken, the probabilities are
that the death list will be consider
ably increased.

The report that Hugh O'Farrell, a
well known employee of the Pacific
Cold Storage Co who departed for
Seattle early last summer, has died of
influenza has not been verified. •
His many friends will be glad to
learn that the report seems to be
founded on nothing more substantial
than rumor, no one as far as can be
ascertained having received a ness
age from Seattle containing the an
nouncement of his death.
SUGAR WITHOUT LIMIT
We have received telegraphic in
struction that it is no longer neces
sary to limit the use of sugar in
households and public eating places.
“Special permits for purchasing sug
ar is no longer required. However
hoarding and pofiteering will not be
tolerated.”
Thus we see that the regulations
are gradually being made easier. Our
principal task for the next few
months, is the saving of wheat flour,
by the use of substitutes in the pro
portion of four parts of flour to one
of substitute . This is not a difficult
task. The writer is voluntarily us
ing more than fifty per cent substi
tutes.
This office has received from the
Food Administrator a considerable
number of receipts for the use of sub
stitutes. Call and get them. They
will make the task much easier.
