QUILLS work a way
THROUGH DOG’S HEAD
One of the most remarkable occur-;
rences in connection with porcupine
quills took place here this week when
the dog belonging to Architect Kings
ley had his head perforated with tin
things by foolishly tackling a porky.

with quills which were extracted with
great difficulty. Some.how ever, could
not be extracted at the time ami they
began to work their way through the
poor brute s head. As they got out
near the surface they were ta*en out
one by one and the last one worked
its way to the surface through the
very point of the dog's nose.

NEWS NOTES
Mies Blanche Finger arrived from
Califroniu on the Watson.
It has been pointed out that so
many members of congress are en
gaged in the work of the conventions
that congress has probcbly taken a
recess, or, at least, is not transacting
much business. This, it is supposed,
may be delaying the passing of The
sundry civil service appropriation
bill.
E. S. Hewitt of the L. C. Smith
Company came on the Alameda.
Andrew tiros void is a passenger on
the Dora which is expected to arrive
tomorrow night or Friday morning.
Harry Ellsworth and Crit Tolman
came in with a story that they killed
a young bear with a pick a couple of
days ago but Mrs. Ellsworth has
given away the thing by showing the
hide —the quill covered coating of a
fretful porcupine.
Mr. and Mrs. F.dgut* Wright who
arrived on the Watson intend to take
up a homestead in this district some
where. They were formerly well
known residents of Nome.

SUFFRAGISTS WORKING WITH
DEMOCRATIC CONVENTIONERS
ST. LOUIS, June 14.—Every dele
gate to the Democratic National Con
vention, opening today, has a series
of white robed satellites trailing him,
They are suffragettes—dressed in
white, with yellow parasols, arm
bands, sashes and caps. The idea is,
simply to engulf the Democratic
hosts with the preponderance of wom
ens’ desire for the ballot, so the dele
gates will vote into the national plat
form a plank approving a suffrag)
constitutional amendment. It was es
timated that there are 8,000 women
franchise workers here, and they
made things lively in their campaign
by bands, street speeches and dogged
pertinacity of their pursuit of dele
gates.
