An epidemic of la giippe is previl- '
ant in the community. Fortunately!
it is of a mild form and runs its ^
course in about ton days. Children J
seem to be immune from its effects,
however, and the older and tougher
are the hardest hit. That's about
fair at any rate.
Dr. K. 1* Graven left for the Kou
garok yesterday driving three of the
toughest dogs in the country. He

• His family will rejoin him later.

Marshal Jordan and Deputy Mar- J
shal Humber arrived at Safety at noon •
today and will arrive in the city to
night. They are escorting six Juven
iles to Nome and have been on the
trail from St. Michael for eight days.
Cold weather has been encountered
in the past two days and the Solo
mon section of the country as yet
shows no signs of breaking up.
Spring cleaning is the order of the
day. Local decorators and paper
hangers pay no attention to e'lght hour
laws—and such like—and arc work
ed to death. It is their busy season
and the work has to be done'. The
Nome Tailoring establishment has
been completely renovated; Billy
Rowe's office, has been steel lined
throughout. Toney Polet is contem
plating extensive alterations and
many other local stores are dolling
up for the coming summer season.
'Tis money well spent.
Last night the Home Guards made
their appearance in their new drill
hall. Close on fifty members of the
organization were seen on the floor.
The Nome contingent—under Instruc
tion of non-commissioned officers of
the regular army—are making great
progress in their drills. Every mem- j
her takes an active Interest in the |
war which goes along right merrily1
There Is ample room for a few more
squads and the now comers receive
special attention which enables them
to catch up with the older hands.
True to his word J. H. Miles land
ed the big Allan motor sleigh on top
of Anvil mountain yesterday arriving
at the summit with dirts Gundrnan
son on a trailer in tow. There are
many bare spots on the hill but the
powerful sled forced ahead at a fair
rate of speed and made the grade
with ease. In the run from town to
Anvil ihe highest speed obtained
was twenty miles an hour. Were it
not for the broken nature of the tin'll,
twice that speed would have been
made. Mr. Miles is not stuck on the
arrangements made for the protec
tion of the driver and arrived in town
more or less frozen.
Among the "out and injured” are
Harry I'ingeon who has been under
the weather for several days. Harry
is on his feet again, however, and will
be back at his desk in a few days.
Ed Johnson is confined to his room
in the Golden Gate suffering from la
grippe. Will Stelgelm'ier now adorn.*
the lobby of the same hotel- sunning
himself. Steig lias now almost recov
ered from his injuries sustained some
time ago when he fell through the
floor of a warehouse. John Olsen
has also joined the hospital troupe:
both of his wrists were badly scald
ed by steam a few days ago when lie
was driving points on his lease at
Itock creek

and one insane woman in the federal

rious counts. The remainder of the
prisoners arc white men who will
serve their terms of imprisonment in
Nome.
During the year 1916 the number
of arrests made' by the federal auth
orities numbered 87, out of which 46
were convicted. The number of in

LONDON. May 5.—All of the mem- !
hers of tlio crew of the armed Am
erican steamer Rockingham are now
accounted for when fourteen of the j
survivors were landed at an Irish j
port this morning having been rescu- !
ed by a patrol boat over a hundred
miles from where their steamer was
sunk.
The majority of these rescued were
of the naval detachment ami consid
ering the fact that for three days
they were without food or i water—
exposed to the elements in n rough
sea—all were well.
All of the rescued men are of the
opinion that the sinking of the Rock
ingham was due to n float'ing mine
and not to a submarine attack as was
tirst thought.
The rescued men state that several
ships were sighted but failed to re
^ xind 40 their signals which (they
might have taken for a decoy to lure
them to destruction.
