The Territorial Road Commission
yesterday was engaged in moving
camp to Cunningham creek. Rapid
progress with this work made neces
sary a second camp moving since the
work began this summer. A fine
stretch of road is now built and it is
possible that Hastings creek may be
reached before the winter stops the
work. '
M. O. Solberg. the local game j
warden, took a trip with a rig out to i
Rock creek on Thursday via Glacier. I
Solberg was not particularly impress- j
ed by the quantity of game that he
saw, rather the birds he did not see
were the most remarkable.
Some jierson in order to inspire
some hopeful ones with renewed life,
started the yarn among the machine
men that Marshal Jordan was re
placed by another. Alas for these.
The wish was merely father to the
thot. Smiser couldn't even get in,
his report by this time, fellows.
Colder weather and colder wind
having arrived, a general change in
weather conditions, terminating in
rain, is predicted by the weatherwise
guy who advises the Worker on the
atmospheric conditions. This weather
prophet says that not only will we
have liberal rains, but it is going to be
a very late fall. He does not explain
that this is because navigation ter
minates this year earlier than usual.
There will he no mail to the Out
side before the Victoria sets sail for
Seattle and way points. The first
mail t& arrive cornea on the Valdez
and mail is all that that steamer has
for Nome.
—
With tlie cancellation of the sailing
of the Watson from Seattle this
month and a like elimination of the
Victoria’s September schedule, the
outgoing boats from now on will be
likely to take out very full passenger
lists. It is certain that they cannot
all wait for the last sailing, if all
who have signified their intention of
leaving do so.
Connolly and Liston who are work
ing in association with C. T. Hedrick,
the owner of the property near Monu
ment creek, have remarkable good
pa)' and cleaned up after a few days
shoveling, with little water, wonder
fully good clean up!
If the weather Improves for mining,
that is if it starts raining like blazes
before the freezeup, these three men
will make a handsome piece of money
from their work.
Chester and others are taking down
sacks on the Nokatak to exploit the

A Russian trader who came over
to Nome on the Belvidere was ex
pecting a Russian steamer to visit
Nome, as did the Yakut last year, but
with conditions in Russia and at
Vladivostok so disturbed, his expec
tations may not be realized. In this
event as he has to reach his station
somewhat north of Petropavlosk, it
will be necessary for him to go out
side, take a steamer from Seattle
to Tokio, tranship to Vladivostok
and thence come up the coast. He
says that nearly all winter there
was a regular service from Vladivos
tok to Petropavlosk.

FRESH FINNAN HADIES AT
LEHMANN’S
The newly moved dredge on Dexter
is not in a position to* work, and
whether it will work or not is a doubt
ful point this season. The dredge
was reassembled last winter and this
Spring, but when water was turned
in from the Pioneer ditch to float it
in its pond, after the dam had been
completed, the whole thing buckled
and went out of kilter, the dredge
now resting on the botton .and will
certainly have to be overhauled. They
are working ten hours on this dredge
and among those who recently went
to work there is Emil Anderson who
was employed on the Dry creek dredge
when he accidently set that boat
on fire.
DELICIOUS FRESH STRAWBER
RIES ill CENTS REIl EOX AT
LEHMANN'S. 4
One of the most remarkable, and
fortunately in this community, very
rare cases of vandalism ever malig
nantly carried out, made Jas M’Fad
deri's home on Fourth and B street,
the object of its attention. Some
time Thursday some person or per
sons broke*into the cabin and therein
worked havoc with the interior con
tents. When Mr M’Fadden went
home about eleven o'clock on Thurs
day night he endeavored to reach a
match to strike a light but he found
that someone had been in the house
and had removed the matches from
their accustomed location. A passer
by, who just chanced to be walking
down B street, happened along and
gave the required matches. To the
astonished,gaze it was seen that some
parties had visited the cabin during
the absence of the owner and pro
ceeded to wreck it up in every way
i shape, manner and form imaginable
Tli * bed was smeared \*ith the con
tents of an old jar containing butter
a tape measure was twisted rounc
and round ilie room, the dishes from
the kitchen were scattered in the
bed room and a big bean pot left ir
the bed. This was not the worst
Pictures hanging on the wall wort
torn down and multilated, photo
graphs ruined and a hand glass tha
had a twisted metal frame w'as smash
ed into little pieces on the bed. Th
contents of the bureau were scatteroc
all over the floor and in order to breal
the lamp, glass and other artiejes
the vandal had secured a hamme,
and little hatchet from the tool ho:
to better perform his crazy purpose
The most mysterious thing about 1
all is that there is no clue whatso
ever ti^the evil doer. No one of th
neighbors saw any one enter or leav
the cabin and he left not a trace be
hind to identify himself. Nothin
apparently was stolen, and this deer
ens the mystery. M'Fadden does nc
know a single person whom he cor
stders an enemy and enjoys the ef
teem of every person, so that he i
totally at a loss to explain either th
purpose or the intention of the ml!
creant who certainly performed
very complete job in wrecking th
contents of his neat little home. ^ e
. terday M'Fadden was the better pa
- of the day straightening out th
, wreck which when he first saw i
i seemed to be the result of a Kans;
cyclone.
