Yesterday was practice night witn
the ball teams in the A. B. Hall.
As it is found next to impossible to
enthuse a crowd in the baseball un
til after Xmas, the first games will
not be held until January 6.
The clouded sky indicates that
the weather, Roof Garden night,
will be similar to that of previous
years and the annual blizzard can
be safely expected.
Mushers from every section state
that not in years have they seen
the trails in such fine condition for
mushing, and the weather so sti.l
and pleasant. It blew quite strong
ly however yesterday at Salomon.
The cult of the hour in Nome is
now the willow wand. It Is com
ing into general use with many
prospectors and is being used espe
cially on Dexter with a view of de
termining the paystreak. It has
also led to a number of discus
sions upon the part of the willow
wanders themselves and like as not
a new sect may start a schism fol
lowing a later development. It ap
pears when locating a paystreak two
spots were indicated whereon to
sink, and each time a saddle or reef
of lime rock was encountered. One
branch of the faith followers con
tend that the pay lies underneath
this reef, while another contends
that the lime rock attracts the wil
low. The various sides are able to
dissertate at length upon their
views, and endeavor to form con
verts to their theories of the willow >
wand. Of course even in sections |
where the willow belief generally
obtains there are the skeptics who
scoff at the theories as very idle
and reject them in toto. But for ail
that, they are unable to break the
faith of those who trust firmly in
the magic of the crooked willow.
Thomas Gaffney returned from I
an inspection of the new Dime creek
camp and speaks encouragingly of
the outlook for that mining district
He says that the boys have only
just started in to work having been
delayed sinking by being compelled
to build cabins and also to wait for
their boilers and supplies being
brought up from the coast to their
ground. Now everyone is working.
I Mr. Gaffney asserts that the miuers
in Dime are the finest lot of men
tackling that work anywhere in Al
aska, all industrious workers and
| all energetically pursuing the work
! of prospecting for the yellow metal
j The miners lioid regular meet
ings having formed a permanent or
ganization of which Jens Madsen is
chairman. They passed resolutions
asking that a recorder be appointed
and mentioning Lars Gunderson as
their choice, as Mr. Gunderson’s
past experience and general integri
ty has highly commended him t o j
them as the most suitable appoint-1
ment. They also passed a resolution
asking the Alaska Road Commission
to build a seven mile road from
i Dime City to Discovery. They also
! passed resolutions looking towards
! the establishment of a mail service
with the camp. The men in Dime,
says Gaffney, are just as inelligem.
and able men as one can meet any
where and none but can learn from
their very liberal discussions which
] are held at their meetings. The
meetings are attended by practically
svery miner in the camp and it is
i complete organization in itself.
At tho Miners Home Club last
light a very enjoyable card party

most pleasant reunion. The follow
