It locked for a while yesterday,
the wa.y the Bering Sea kept back
ing up Snake river, as though the
Sardspittcrs would be compelled to
send an S. O. S. for the city ferry
to e-'nvey them across the river,
or lake aa it apparently appeared
to be. The "Spitter’s” eventually
solved the problem by donning
their water muk-luks and mushing

The rumor is being circulated
that word recently reached here
from Marshal city to the efToct
that the camp is practically de
serted, the miners having stam
| peded to Good News Bay country.
| It is reported that a rich strike is
I supposed to have recpntly been
! made there. Another rumor is also
going tho rounds that Paul Kjeg
stad has made a flying trip ’.o the
scene of he purported strike.
Paul left here for Marshal, about
a month ago, taking Dr. Heimlich
along a3 a passengor.
A letter was recently received
from Ches M. Wolfe, who is known
j to nearly every one in Nome, Is at
i present located at Shungnak on
the Kobuk river. Charlie writes
that he is trying to locate a pay
streak, but that the prospectors
have a hard time of it, since the
ground is all thawed and full of
large boulders. The creeks are
shallow, being from 3 to 15 feet
deep. No one has anything better
than wages, and the stores are
charging three or four prices for
what they have to sell. There are
about 15 white men and 4 white
women in that part of the country.
Martin Moran was leaving for
Kiana after having made a deal
with Chas Evans for his ground.
We’ve had splendid weather up
here, as far as the winter has pro
ceeded.

At the time of writing seven claims

good pay has been found, said tc
run all the way from fifteen cents
to two dollars ar.d a half to the
square foot. The letter slates thal
over $12,500 had been taken oul
between August 15th and Octobe;
, 10th of last year. The number ol
( men who are in the vicinity of the
, reported strike is not definitely
. known, but it is said there are noi
very many. They stated in thoil
letter that the four claim-owners
i wl ere the recent strike wa3 m.'.eli

out a winter grubstake.
Good News river flows into Gooi
