The pr nted statement that any !
.•amts arc short cf supplies because ot
of lack of freighters or because the
freighters have not been able to travel
during the cold spell is flatly denied.
It is ass rted tlat Howe's teams have
been delivering all freight offered
without any delay except some wcuks
ago when the blizzard made the trails
mpoEsible and they had to be broke
out before travel could bo resumed.

A Beligum interned soldier named
Cyrille Van Lulle, 31 Jag rs Regiment,
camp of Anncrs.'ord, Holland, has ask- i
ed the Nugget to request somebody in j
Nome to please forward him some ]
used post stamps. He has been a j
prisoner since the fall of 1014 and is j
trying to make a collection to pass 1
the time. Some one with a few min- ]
utes to spare could not do much harm
in sending him a few old stamps.

The price of antimony is not high !
as it wa3 shortly ufter the beginning
of the war but there is a steady j
demand for it at good prices as is
shown by a letter received in the las. |
mat by C. J. Peterson of this city, j
He sent three samples of antimony ore |
to the Magnolia Metal Company last j
June and an unavoidable delay pre
vented a reply until November. The
manager of the company states that
he prefers antimony ores assaying 50 |
per cent or better in antimony metallic
content. The company can use, how
ever, ore running as low as 45 per
cent. It docs not make much dif
lerences whether the ores are oxide or
stibnite though they should not con- |
tain in excess of one per cent either
separate or combined of the follow
ing impurities: Lead, zinc, arsenic, j
iion, cupper or bismuth.
Sample No. 1 sent by Mr. Peterson j
was declared to be very high graae j
oie. No. 2 was also a good grade.
No. 3 was doubtful but it was sug- '
gested that the deposit might show
up beter with development. It could j
certainly be made of commercial ;
value if the deposit is sufficiently large
to warrant the erection of a concen- j
trator on the ground. Grades No. 1
and 2 the Magnolia company will i
agree to use In any amounts that will
be delivered . The company would ;
want a steady supply of it. The let- j
ter stated that the freight rates from
Nome were not then available but
that there i3 no doubt that the two
best grades would stand shipping
whatever the rate. Possibly also the
| third grade could be delivered satis
! factorily too. The company is greatly
! interested in the proposition and wants
to hear more about it at once.

Emil Johnson, who died yesterday
' atfernoon in the hospital at Candle
as a result of self-inflicted wounds
with a shotgun and knife, had been
acting queeily for some time and was
under observation by his neighbors on
r Candle creek. On Tuesday night he
started up the creek to visit Lundaui3t
or some one in the neighborhood of
21 above discvery. By telepohne they
tried to keep tabls on him and among
! other phoned to was Lundberg who
| having learned that Johnson had gone
up the creek past his claim went on
up to Lundq&ist's cabin where he
found the deranged man. Johnson
made some sort of a threat at that
time 3aying, “You are the man who
followed me around Nome," or some
thing of that sort. Lundberg started
back to his cabin and was followed
by Johnson. Lundberg heard the step
behind him and turned Just In time
to ri ceive in the breast a couple of
pellets of a charge of shot which
Jolnson fired. Lundberg then went on
dewn the creek and Johnson returned
to the cabin he was visiting. Lund
qu'st, or a man whose name sounds
like it, took the shotgun away from
Johnson who was much upset by what
he had done. A little later in the
abpence of Lundqulst Johnson tried
-o blow off hts head with the shot.
Tun and .succeeded in shooting oft a
art of his left Jaw. Then he cut his
hroat and severed the windpipe hut
tot the Jugular vein. News of the
ffatr was phoned to Candle and a ]
fm was sent to haul Johnson to i
own. He reached the hospital in the ,
nrenoon but because of his weakened i
'ate the doctor was not able to save j
1I3 life. Lundberg Is In no danger <
if the result of the two shots *hat
truck him and was walking about
esterday. The report says that John
son was no doubt mentally deranged.
He was well known here.
