The Hard Times Party to be
given next Saturday will be a
unique affair. The arrangement
for cards to begin with the ev
ening is ideal and will give those
who do not care to dance some
thing to do. Six prizes will be
awarded to the winners.
The Hard Times dance to begin
promptly at 10:80 will be an en
joyable affair. Undoubtedly
many Hard Times costumes will
be in evidence to win the three
grand prizes. Judges will be sel
ected from the spectators during
the evening.
Mrs. Whaley has made a wide
selection of old time waltzes and
two steps and for the young peo
ple she will render the best and
latest music.
Longley Arrives Nome With
Remains of Billy Allison
The remains of William Alli
son were brought to Name today,
by Harry Longley and his dog
team, and placed in the morgue
to await funeral arrangements.
It will be recalled that Billy
Allison, the well known Casade
paga mining naan was recently
found dead in his cabin in the
Casa section, having frozen to
death lying on his bunk fully
clothed with his mushing clothes
still on. It was believed he had
returned from a trap line and
being cold he attempted to build
a fire, evidence of burnt paper
having been found in a gold pan
on the floor. He apparently being
in an exhausted condition, evi
dently laid on top of his bunk,
fell asleep and froze to death.
It is learned that he was born
in Scotland in 1867. Came to
Nome in the gold rush days and
has prospected and mined in the
Casadepaga section practically
ever since. He was a member of
Pioneers of Alaska Tgloo No. 1 of
Nome. Funeral services will be
announced later.

Are you keeping in touch with
what your representatives and
senators are doing in the legis
lature at Juneau? You have that
opportunity to do so by reading
each issue of the Nome Nugget.
If you are not a subscriber it is
still possible for you to keep
posted by buying a paper from
the route carriers. It is frequent
ly said that everybody does not
get the paper—but it does appear
that anytime a mistake appears;
in print, everybody knows about !
it. So why not be fair to your
self and the community in which1
you live and make your bread
and butter and be a regular sub
scriber, or at least buy an extra
paper from the route carriers.
