The Catholic Library Club held their
weekly card social last evening with
the usual goodly attendance of mem
bers. The following were the prize
w inners at the whist tables. Hiss An
nie Stikep, -Mrs. Joe Ernst and Mrs
Nellie Smet, Messis. Alathio Kranyac,
Chas. Munay and Joe Ernst.
Despite the great number of teams
employ ed by W. J. Howe in the work
of removing tne snow it was not until
today that the results of their efforts
became really preceptible, so heavy
was the accumulation. The work so
far has been largely confined to Front
street and the majority of the back
thoroughfares are still In an almost
impassable conditions.
Private parties who are Interested In
the Increased mall movement have
taken steps to Interest the W. C. T. U.
in the effort being made by the people
of Nome and have solicited the co
operation of that body, which, as is
doubtless well known maintains r
lobby at the national capital. It is
believed that the W. C. T. U. will give
an Immense support to the movement
if they can be Interested, owing to
their cloce Washington connections.
The ladles of the Sons of the North
will give their leap year party at the
hall of that organization and it is ex
pected that there will be no dearth
of bachelors on hand when the pro
ceedings commence. From all accounts
the ladies are going to give an en
tertainment that will make the bach’s
think of slippers and a cosey fireside
with some one fuaslng around in the
kitchen, or sitting on the arm of hub
by’s Morris chair with the golden
gleam of the firelight on her hair

Feb Mebes and Fred Haudke return
ed from Uime creek yesterday bringing
-unnrmation of the previous reports
et the blowing up of that much tout
ed camp. Both have done considerable
prospecting with but little results for
-heir labors. As reported by previous
-i rivals, Madsen made a small strike
on two above recently but the values
-re low. They also report that many
-re striking out for other creeks but
so far as known nothing new has been
ueveloped in new localities. The men
-ave been about a week on the trail
out were delayed by bad weather. On
the whole their report is no more en
couraging than that of Christianson,
who was charged with knocking In
some quarters, when his tale of frult
.ess efforts and disappointments wus
told. Mebes reports that John Hanson,
wbo left at the same time as himself
i3 still somewhere on the trail to Nome
out has probably been delayed at some
point along the coast.
