PIONEER PETE YAGER
PASSED AWAY
The many friends of Pete Yag
will be grieved to hear of his
death. He passed away after a
brief illness the morning of Dec
ember 12th.
A Pioneer of the Dawson days
he came to Nome in 1900 and ev
er since has been an active gen
erous figure in the varied inter
ests of the Peninsula.
His funeral services will be
held at the Federated Church Fri
day Dec. 15th at 2 pm under the
auspices of his brother Pioneers.
FIRE LAST NIGHT
At about 8:30 yesterday even
ing the fire department was call
ed to extinguish a fire in the lit
tle log cabin occupied by Scotty
Brown at the intersection of D
Street and second Avenue.
The fire resulted from an over
heated stove, although Scotty
had just installed a new stove
pipe, The fire was put out by i
water from the tank on the fire
truck but not before the inside
of the cabin was gutted.
This cabin is by way of being
quite a land-mark in Nome and
is claimed by many to have been |
the first log cabin erected here.
(lily Council Meets
The Common Council of the
Ciiy of Nome held a regular
meeting Monday night, Dccem
jber 11th.
Little of importance took place
principally of a routine nature.
Bills in the amount of $500 were
approved and ordered paid.
Several city lots on Belmont
Point were sold to the U S S R &
M Co for the purpose of con
structing a road across Dry
Creek to Belmont Point and
points farther on. The construc
tion of this proposed road and
bridge will be a decided asset to
the City and will fill a long felt
want in the community. It had
been a matter of concern for a
number of years past as to how
the City could finance the con
struction of a permanent bridge
across Dry Creek but each time
the proposal was made it was
postponed after investigation,
due to the fact that the cost
would be beyond reach of the
city finances. Now fortunately
the U S S R & M Co. has plan
ned and even commenced work
on this proposed bridge and
road which will be substantial
ly constructed and available to
the public without any cost to
the City or the taxpayers.
Received in Nome by a recent
mail was the announcement of
the marriage of Sally Virginia
Dawson to Guy Lawrence Wal
ton Jr of Seattle November 24.
The bride is the daughter of
Mr and Mrs Harry Lomen, form
erly of Nome.
Word has been received by
federal offices here that Harry
Neibling died at the Morning
side Sanatorium at Portland,
Ore. Harry Neibling, a Nome na
five was committed to the San
atorium this fall and was taken
out on the last boat in October.

POSITIVE-SEAL TRUCK WHEEL i
“Greatest contribution made to crawler industry in 20 years,” j 15
Says one large tractor fleet owner,
HOW MUCH CAN YOU AFFOUD TO WASTE? p
Gold — probably unnoticed — is passing OVER your screens and riffles — IS Jr
BEING WASTED — if you are using ordinary ’dozer tractors. Here’s wrhy! Grease 2S
leaks out from rollers and idlers on eommon truck wheel assemblies. These a?
pj drippings attach themselves to numerous gold particles in the pit and are slushed 2£
ft around until small, pebble-like balls are formed. You know the rest—that gold
fj goes over the riffles.
Stop this needless waste. Use the NEW Allis-Chalmers tractors with the Zj
W POSITIVE-SEAL truck wheel assemblies. The OIL STAYS IN because IT’S M
j * SEALED IN! And you CHANGE TT ONLY ONCE IN 200 HOURS. Z3
I Consider your savings — not only in gold gained — but in slashed lubrication yL
costs — in 48 extra productive hours every 1,000 — in greaser's wages.
