The annual celebration of the
birth of St. Patrick, was held in
the St. Joseph Hall, last evening.
Several scenic stereoptican views
of "Dear Old Ireland” were pro
jected upon the screen. Miss Mamie
K/elly, one of Nome’s charming
nightingales, sang the ancient and
popular melody ‘Come back to Erin’
in real professional styles. Mrs.
J. J. Walsh, illustrated she has con
siderable ability as an elocutionist,
the masterful manner in which she
recited the beautiful poem entitled,
‘Let me carry your Cross for Ire
land.’ And the way Ed Moran
reeled off the recitation called ‘Cha
mus O'Brien’ left one with the im
pression that he is an old veteran
at the game.
Several very interesting remarks
in reference to St. Patrick were ad
dressed to the audience. We men
tion the delicious lunch last, but
not the least. Our reporter said
it was the most enjoyable two hours
he has spout for many a day gone
by.

Many members came in from the
creeks to attend the Miners Union
1 meeting last Saturday evening, also

Directors of the Nome Chamber of
I Commerce- a committee of five were
appointed to represent the Union,
pertaining to the future coal ques

uled to take place in the Pioneers

Rcsolutaions were adopted, vigor
ously protesting against the confir

I Outside the usual basket and

A rumor is in circulation that the
management will show a motion
picture of a ten round prize fight—
between topnotchers of prizedom

picture has been shown in hundreds
of picture houses in the States,
always commanding a crowded
house.
The return game between the
Nome High School and the All Nome
aggregation is a feature in itself,
which should call every man, woman,

One of the most enjoyable
.functions of the season was held
in the Sons of the North hall last
Saturday night. In fact the only
complaint we have heard so far, is
that the hall was too small to com
fortably accommodate the large at
tendance. For many years past the
citizens of Nome have alw'ays looked
forward to the annual St. Patrick’s
Ball, as being one of the leading
events of the season. Everybody
and his sweetheart, surely had a
splendid time from 10 p. m. until
about 3 a. m. The committee de
sires to thank the ladies who so
generously assited in making the
event such a success, also the musi
ians, the extra ones in particular,
especially the gentleman (whose
I name we were unable to ascertain!
who at different times delighted the
dancers with melodious accordian
playing. The delicious lunch, well!
probably we had better say nothing
about it. if wo do, we may start
some of the Hoover Brigade on the
committee's trail, so we’ll pass that
by. In case anyone should be
overlooked, the committee desires
to thank everybody who so ably
assisted.
