EMMA DALQUIST
LOST IN BLIZZARD
Nugget's exclusive telephone service.
There is every reason to believe that
Mm. Kmma Dalquist. wife of the pro
piietor Of tile Safety roadhouse, has
lost her life amid the biting wind and
whirling snows of the blizzard which
has been raging down the coast since
Saturday night.
Search parties have been out all day
but no trace of the unfortunate woman
has been found up to the hour of going
to press.
Mrs. Dalquist, who is well known tn
the majority of old-timers, left Safety,
during a lull in the storm, at five p
m. yesterday afternoon intending b
go to the Cape NTomo roadhouse The
wind had calmed and the air was clear
at the time and nature gave no bin!
ns she started out on the seven mile
walk of the fury which was to rage
across the snows a few hours later.
Airs. Dalquist was clothed in a parka
and niuekluks and being a seasoned
winter traveler started out witli little
thought of danger. About an hour inter
she was seen by the natives at the vil
lage a few miles this side of Safety and
shortly thereafter the raging blizzard
again swept downward, blotting out tin
landscape in a whirl of drifting snow.
What has happened in tlmt blinding
drift no one knows, for Mrs. Dalquist
has not been seen at the Cape Nome
roadhouse and although tire entire pop
ulation of the district and also several
Xomeites including that veteran of the
winter snows, Scotts Allan, and Joe
Sheldon, who were at Safety, have
scoured the country ns far as was pos
sible in the face of the storm they have
found no trace of the missing lady
Whether she has managed to rearli
some shelter from the fury of the ele
ments is hard to say. There are no
habitations between the native village
and Capo Nome and little in the nature
f natural shelters. The wind was ter
ii(lc and tlie temperature thirteen be
low zero and although Mrs. Dalquist
was warmly dad it is doubtful if she
could weather the storm in the open.
Telephone inquiry by Air. Dalquist
early developed the fact that Airs. Dal
uulst had not arrived at Cape Nome
within a reasonable time and the hus
band accompanied by Air. Sheldon
searched as far as was possible
throughout the night but without sue
cess. With the hrenk of day search was
renewed on a larger scale and Scotty
Allan and Dalquist pressed the natives
Into service. Practically every able
person is searching the country.
Several mushers from Nome are re
ported to have left to aid In the rescue
of the unfortunate lady if she is yet,
,i live. Being well acquainted with
{ Northern . unditlons Mrs, Dalquist may
have buried herself in a snow bank or
might possibly have reached some shel
ter on the hither side side of the Cape.
These two possibilities are the only re
maining hopes.
