After a storm comes a calm and fit
sunny weather that now prevails is a
pleasant change from the storm of tht
earlier part of the week. For all thal
the chunks of snow dropping from the
eaves make it dangerous on I he side
walk and ait occasional narrow escape
gives rise to an occasional swear wort
that makes the hair of the passer bj
stand on end—with envy

owned the I.nuise and later the Hattie
B* in-.this eity, has sold mining prop
erty In Rawhide, New, for $750,000.

stake, but has apparently struck it rich
in :Nevada. He- owns considerable
property still in that state.
The Nome Are department petitionee
the council for a continuation of tht
summer rate of wages.
It Is said that the reason that tht
department did not petition the coun
- oil for like conditions last winter is thai
the council being in debt they felt call
ed upon to lend every assistance tc
that body- In endeavoring to put tht
City on a sound financial basis. Thej
new feel that they are entitled to tht
regular rate of pay.

MINING NOTES
James Connors, Mike Campbell and
Tom Fullerton are now busy sinking
a shaft on the Sunnyslde clai'm on
Irene creek, wheio they established a
jamp during the week.
Harold Jensen, who has been pros
pecting- on McDonald creek for the
past two years, is taking out a large
supply of coal and provisions to his
•laim. where lie will start taking out
.lie pay he ran l'nto recently.
Those miners are all union men
mine of them being the staunchest
suppprters of organized labor in the
north.
On the lower end of Xo. fi Center
'reek, Ed Horn, John Winters, Bert
Cline, R. E. Baker and several others
ire getting ready to work on the co
iperative plan.
On the upper end of Xo. fi Gus Pe
ersen and several others are also got
- ready to start winter work.
On Xo. lfi Dry there aie at present
working E. J. lli'okey. John Meagher.
Jeorge T Tonry. Jacob Pet ft.son and
Tolin Humphries.
Mint and Reid will probably work
on Xo. 7 Cunnhigham this winter also.
The individual prospector was never
more in evidence than ’hi's year, and
eveiy day one sees an outfit being
hauled to the tundra that may or may
not conceal potentialities of wealth
beyond the dreams of avarice.
Evidently mining on the co-opera
tive plan is to have i'ts vogue this sea
son, and many members of Eocal No.
240 will carry on work in this way.
On No. 5 Center creek Ohagnon and
partners are preparing to hoist pay.
They have a considerable body of
gravel that carries splendid values,
and had a most successful season last
■winter.

“See here. Mr. Sands,” said Mrs.
Tightwad, “that cheese is full of holes.”
"Yes, ma'am,” rejoined the grocery
man, “that's the way it comes.”
“Well, I don’t want it,” said Mrs. T.
“I’m not going to pay for half a pound
of holes."

James Keir Hardie, the founder of
the labor party in England, says the
time Is now ripe to organize a labor
party in Canada and that, by a het.ter
union of their forces the laborers of
America can obtain legislation for their
advancement.
