for nearly a week by the vagrant
winds which have been raising such a
disturbance on old Berlng’9 stormy sea
lately.
The schooner Uiwak returned from
a trip to Marshall City last evening
and will probably sail again within a
short time us there is a considerable
demand for freight carriage at the
present time.
The schooner Trader, Capt. Wm.
Thompson, from Plover Bay, pulled
out for her home port about midnight
after being compelled to remain here
for u period of nearly two weeks ow
ing to the frequent storms. Capt.
Thompson spent about half the time
behind Sledge island and was unable
to load more than a small portion of
his cargo before yesterday.
The Ernst dredge commenced work
ing again this morning after being
snnded in twice by the recent storms.
The big gold digger was caught by
the first storm last week and sanded
in but later started again only to have
the sand again tossed into the pit
by the briny billows later on. The pit
has now been cleared and work Is
expected to continue for some time.
The schooner Noatak, which came
! up from the Koyuk yesterday bringing
trader .Swanson, will return at once
with a full load of supplies for Dime
creek. From all accounts there is on
Immense demand for freight space and
the vessel will have all she can handle.

quantity of mining supplies and equip
| ment for Lars Gunderson and others.
A long distance message from Can
dle last night stated that Senator Mar
tin Moran left the northern metropolis
yesterday morning en route to Nome
by way of Dime creek and Council.
The particularly round about course ;
of the legislator is doubtless account
ed for by the fact that he is n candi
date for re-election and is not over- I
looking any opportunties to connect
w:■ i the rural vote.
Lomen Brothers announce that they j
are in receipt of a case of Mrs. Dari- j
ing's popular work, Baldy of Nome, j
The books have evidently been here:
for some days but were lost until to- j
day. The demand for this work is an
ample indication of Its merits. It
may further be said that the work
has developed a great popularity on
the outside and is being featured by
some of the largest book selling con
cerns in their catalogue of book of
ferings. ,
The schooner Hum came up from
Safety yesterday after being storm
bound in that port for several days
while making its way up the coast
from Dime creek. The owner of the
! vessel is a native chief of Diomede
I island and intends to take his ship
north immediately. The schooner was
stuck on the bar at the mouth of
Snake river this morning while clear
ing for home. It is reported along
the water front that the native owner
refused nn offer of three hundred dol
lars for a return trip to Dime creek
with supplies.

The case of the United States vs.
Jessup was called in the district court
yesterday. The case involves the rif
ling of the cash register in the Boston
laundry last spring. The amount of
money secured was $4.60 and the cash
register was also purloined but was
later found in the rear of *t-e prem
ises. The defendant Is a ; oung na
tive. The greater part of yesterday’s
session was taken up in securing a
Jury, the panel being completed
shortly before three in the afternoon.
A number of witnesses were examined
before the close of the sitting, includ
ing Chin Ben, proprietor of the laun
dry, Walter Black a native youth and
Harry Phillips. Hugh O’Neill is th
defending attorney.

movement by sending a copy of the
Nugget Mining and Dredging Journal

influence on the outside. The neces
sity for roads fully set forth in story
und illustration. Send in your sub
scription now. Ready about October
15. Fifty cents per copy, five dollars
per dozen. Single copies mailed for
live cents additional for postage and
packing.
Dr. J. Dennis Arnold and Mr. Fred
Ay pi ot the Wild Goose Co. ipany re
turn, d Item Council yesterday after
spending a busy season look ng after
the o'cations of the comootrv at the
i frier camp.
Mr. Ayer reports that the dredge
has worked with excellent manner
during the summer and, aside from a
couple of breaks in the bucket line,
there were no delays. The company
hydraulic operations on the Lodi and i
Alameda benches off Nos. 1 and 2 j
Ophir creek were very successful and
the ground was also stripped for next |
seasons’ operations. At the time of
departure there was no sign of the
freezeup in the Council section and
the dredge is expected to work late.
Before departing for his trading
station ut Plover Bay, Capt. Wm.
Thompson stated to a Nugget reporter
that he was thoroughly convinced that
Nome will enjoy a large and lucrative
trade with the Siberian coast in the
event of a harbor being built so that
vessels can obtain shelter on arrival
Instead of being compelled to lie in
the open roadstead. The natives on
the Siberian side, many of whom own
schooners, would come to Nome for
practically all supplies, according to
Capt. Thompson, but they are very
much afraid to run the risks involved
at the present time. Capt. Thompson
cites the case of a schooner owned by
some well to do natives which at
tempted to reach Nome to obtain
supplies but was caught in a storm
after arriving in the roadstead and
was later blown to sea. After being
buffeted for days, the schooner final
ly made shelter in the lee of Nunivak
island from whence it set a direct
course to Siberia and will return no
more, if the present owners have any
thing to say about it. Thompson de
clared 'that the 'experience. of this
vessel has caused the native schooner
owners to give up all idea of attempt
ing to come to Nome for supplies.
John Hegness, well known to Nome
ltes, nearly lost his life in a recent
storm outside of Teller, according to
a report brought in by Mr. Ray D.
Clarke. It appears that Hegness was
ubonrd the Whittard and Barnett
lighter which the Valdez was towing
to York when a storm caught them off
Point Spencer. The launch in tow be
hind the lighter broke loose and had
to shift _ for itself. When the launch
had gone Hegness’ position was not of
the safest as the sea was breaking
over the lighter. The captain of the
Valdez, according to the report, or
dered his crew to lower a boatand take
Hegness off . the lighter. It was now
well into the night, very dark and
a gale blowing. Instead of obeying
orders, the crew of the Valdez pulled
the lighter up close to the stern of the
ship and threw Hegness a line which
he made fust under his arms. In or
der to avoid being washed off the
lighter Hegness was holding on to the
bits and was often covered by the
surf which swept over him. Finally
when he gavo the signal, he was haul
ed aboard the Valdez with only a
bruised shoulder and a complete sous- I
ing which did not cause him any
permanent harm. Shortly afterward
the lighter broke adrift and has not
been heard of since. Had not Heg
ncss been taken aboard the Valdez as
he was doubtless he too would not
have been heard of again.
Sam Wittenberg was the holder of
the lucky ticket in the drawing for the
Storm motor cycle and side car. The
winning number was 29.
Taking advantage of th<» smooth
water, a large number of natives
whose homes are along the coast to the
westward, sailed away in their skin
boats this morning and will probably
not show up again until the returning
summer shall again bring the festive
tourist to purchase ivory curios and
native gegaws at highly inflated priceB.
Adlos Lo!
A large school of white whale dis
ported themselves in the roadstead
this morning, attracting much inter
est from those who have nothing else
to do but wait for the boats to convey
them to the delights of the gay out
side. Tho school numbered several
dozen by the commotion visible on
the smooth surface of the sea at In
tervals.
