The Kougarok mail arrived in town
yesterday. The summer schedule to
Mho Kougarok and adjacent points is
now in effect and the outgoing mail
I will leave every Tuesday. The time of
arrival is somewhat problematical as
the rules allow the carrier eight days
in which to make the round trip and
the time required varies somewhat ow
ing to the traveling conditions pre
vailing. During mid-summer the trip
is frequently made In six days.
The interior of the Golden Gate has
been given a thorough overhauling and
the rooms are all that could possibly
be expected. Today will complete the
housecleaning and will he all ready for
the large numher of people which will
arrive on the Vlctorln and Senator. Mr
Swartsell, the genial proprietor, has
also Installed several bath tubs In the
hotel which will no doubt add consid
erably to the already excellent service
and accomodations.
The Incoming Victoria and Senator
were well within the waters of Behring
Sea before news of their whereabouts
was received in Nome. The first In
timation to this effect was contained in
the announcement received at 1 P. M.
yesterday front the Victoria, stating
that tile vessel was about 110 miles
from Nome. At seven last evening the
Senator also reported her position ns
being inside the Pass. The location
given was 65 miles North of Scotch
Gap one of tlie- promintorles on the
eastern side of the passage opposite
t’nalaska.
At eight A. M this morning the
Victoria reported her position as be
ing about fiftv miles southwest of Gape
Romanoff or about 115 miles from
Nome.
A large crowd witnessed the pro
duction of the six reel feature. Mr.
Barnes of New York at the Dream last
evening and the spontaneous response
to the different situations attested
stronger than words the deep interest
of those in attendance This high
class multiple reel production is the
first of a large number of exceptional
features to be shown at intervals dur- j
ing the coming summer the majority |
of which have proved great attractions J
on the outside. The program for this
evening will display the clever under- ‘
world drama. The Girl of the Cafe, a 1
deeply sympathetic story of the "other
side" of life in two parts. Ridtiev
Drew in the clever comedy A Model
Young Man will furnish the fun. Thp
regular prices will prevail.
The following extract from a letter
written by Gapt. Daniel Tt Libby, Si
lo a friend itt Nome throws some fnr
lier light on the early history of tills
taction and indicates that our earlier
listorians may have strayed from the
’acts in recounting the story of the
Irst gold discover? on Seward Penin
mla. The following is Gapt. Libby's
itatement In regard to the matter:
"It is stated that Otto de Bendelaven
md charge of the party building telc
;raph lines in Alaska, that he discov
ered gold on the Neukluk river while
vith me in 1866. M?' division of that
ine was from the head of Norton 1
-ound to Gape Prince of Wales. I was
lent to Port Glarence, 11 of us, in Sep
ember of that year, selected a site and
milt a station, four houses and a ware
muse. About the last of September,
bendelaven was sent bv boat from St.
Michael and reported to me for duty
he same as an ordinary workman. In
November that year he and Boh Globe
with natives went to select a route to
Norton Sound, struck Neukluk River
rather high up going down river on
ice came to high gravel banks that
looked good to mo. I had done some
mining on South Clenv creek near
Idaho Springs, Go!., in 1862. so we built
a fire and thawed out a little gravel
and T panned it out that night when
we camped in timber below Council
City. The prospect showed five or
six light colors of gold. 1 said. 'Boys,
when we get our camp here next year
wo wilt do prospecting.’ In 1867 all
work was abandoned on the whole pro
ject and the company vessel came to
take us back to California. Bendelaven
was not mentally strong and In 1868
was sent to Stockton insane asylum
;and was there about two years. T
[think he Is dead. These are the facts—
1 built 23 miles of line east from Port
Glarence, parts of the cedar poles were
standing in 1S98, 1 saw' them. I still
retain about all my company instruc
tions We published a monthly papor
at Port Clarence and continued it at
Plover Bay while waiting final leave
for San Francisco. T retain a full
copy of all those papers. It was called
the ‘Esquimaux’ published in Libbys
vllle, Port Glarence, Alaska. While I
got but little Alaska gold I do wish
to hold my earlier record. If that
telegraph work had gone on another
year probably the rush for gold would
have eome about 30 years sooner.”
