FIRST WINTER
MAIL ARRIVES
Th*> first mail from '.ho Outside to
reach Nome this winter arrived ab’jut
4 j). m. Friday afternoon. Thanks
to the presence of the new government
railroad from Seward to—the Interior,
the Rhi pfti.cn t reached Nome weeks
ahead of the time of arrival
of the first overland malt
T>uring earlier years the first mails
over the winter .trail have usually
reached Nome shortly before the holi
period , nif few if any have arriv
ed before imSd-tVc.em.ber. From this it
will he s<en that the dispatch arriving
yesterday reached the city practically
one month ahead of the former time of
This does not mean that the time of
passage fr.nn the States has been re
duced that rmioh. however, as the dis
patch* apparently left Seattle around
Khitober 1. ten days or two weeks ahead
of the usual time >f forwarding the
first winter mail from, that point.
This year the last Nome boat left
I'ugrtt Sound September 2H. whereas
the usual date of the hist bout. depart
ure is between Oct. 10 and 15, hence
the dispatch left Seattle about two
weeks earlier than usual. It Is appar
ent, however, that the shipment is two
weeks ahead of time at least, even af
ter allowing for the unusually earlier
dispatch from Seattle.
The shipment yesterday was not
only the earliest to arrive in the
crimp's history but wns also one of the
heaviest, if not actually the heaviest,
mail that hits came over the winter
trail. Six socks of first class matter
s'ideraMe <|uanti4y of second class. The
dispatch at least holds the winter- re
cord for the period of Postmaster
ATtolsh’s ineiimbancy.
Nothing is definitely known regard
ing the succeeding dispatches but it
is expected that another will fdloiv
in alKUit a week .
