Nome Camp. Arctic Brotherhood,

visitor in this section, nn<1 James Hal
pin, the well known mining man. The
class totaled nine persons. Captain
Cochran was created an honorary

presented with a handsome souvenir in
the shape of the gold pan and nugget
badge of the order. Following the
initiation, light refreshments were!
served. The organization expects to
intiatc a second large class in the
near future.
Much criticism is going the rounds
relative to the mail arriving on the
Victoria Whether Justly or not, the
public appear to feel that there has
been some little laxity in the matter
of placing the consignment ashore.
This is furtier enhanceo by the gen
eral report that the const guard crew
were able to navigate in dories after
the arrival of the vessel in the road
stead and also made a trip out to
the Vessel this morning hours before
the contractors made nny effort to get
the mail ashore. The captain of the
coast guard, before departing, is said
to have volunteered to bring the mail
ashore on his return, without cost, but
the offer was refused for some reason.
It was undoubtedly rough on the water
at the time the coast guard crew went
out, but it assuredly seems that the
mail can be landed when dories can
easily get around.
