JEWEL GUARD
TEMPORARILY DETAINED
The Gas seh. Jewel Guard was
scheduled to sail for Solomon at 2
o’clock Wednesday afternoon, but
was temporarily detained by the
Chief of Police. It appears that the
tuxes on the boat had not been paid
and she was seized by the City un
der a distress warrant. When it b*
came apparent that the boat w»»s
going to leave without the neces
eary formality of paying the taxe.s,
Ihe Municipality put a custodian in
charge. After a short time the
skipper realized that he was up
against the strong arm of the law,
and proceeded to the Tax Collector’s
office and made the payment. The
■boat was then released and she pro
ceeded on her way.

Following til** custom observed ;
throughout the United States and j

holiday, and fitting tribute paid to '
those who have passed Into the j
great beyond. May Day in Nome Is j
usually observed under a disadvan- i
tage for the reason that the snow j
hits hardly left the ground and a j
piofusion of flowers Is difficult to ;
obtain. Notwithstanding these han
dicaps. we of this community, never
the less, carry on the spirit of the
day in our own way.

Monday. June 2. Mr. Mod Ini’s res- j
ipnation from the office of the Clerk
or- the D'strict Court will become ef
fective at the close of business in the
C!« rk's office this evening, and be
is losing no time in getting into the
new game.
Mr. Modini is well known in Nome.
He has lived here for the past twen
ty-two years and has been closely
associated with the athletic, social
and fraternal life of the camp dur
ing all that time. He has had con
siderable **vperience with the meat
business, having been employed l»y
the Pacific Cold Storage Company
for some time, and also assisted his
father. George Modini in conducting
a restaurant business here for many
These experiences will be invalu
able to Mr. Modini in the conduct of
the new venture, since through his
connection with the supply and pre
paration of foodstuffs, he has learn
ed just, what the hungry public re
ruires and demands in the line of
It is the purpose of Mr. Modini to
handle nothing but the very choic
est varieties of meats, hams, bacon,
butter, eggs, lard, and all meat pro
ducts, and fish in season. He in-j
tends to make a number of changes I
in the Market, installing modern and I
up-to-date appliances for the pres-1
ervation of meats, one of which will
be a show-case refrigerator which j
will keep the meat fresh and cool, j
and protect it from dust, insects. [
and the like, and prevent the pro
display by a thoughtless public. The '
new manager has an arrangement 1
with the producers which insures
the shipment of nothing but thv
v-ry choicest products• that can be;
The cold storage plant in Conner- j
ti n with the meat market is to have!
a thorough renovation throughout)
renovation of the sales room is also j
contemplated. New paint and other j
repairs and improvements will be ;
applied with a view of the utmost :
sanitation and neatness.
Mr. Modini has arranged with
Hugh O'Farrell and Albin Poison to
remain with the establishment. They
are b«>th old timers and are well :
known here. Mr. O’Farrell is an I
expert meat cutter and a pleasant. |
genial and accommodating sales
man. and Mr. Poison is thoroughly
familiar with the cold storage busi- i
ress and refrigeration. A better
choice of assistants could hardly be I
a niff snipine::x oi cnoice meats aim
oilier supplies wNIl arrive on the
first Victoria. It is estimated that
ly the time the first steamer arrives
rhe stock on hand will be completely
exhausted, or very nearly so. It is
the intention of the new manage
reent to endeavor to keep on hand
everything that can be supplied in
the line of meats, and special atten
tion will be given to those who de
fin- some particular little thing
which is “different.” The family
trade will be given the closest atten
tion. and it will not be long until the ;
new manager knows everyone’s
tastes and will promptly satisfy |
Yesterday. -May 30th.. was spe-nt
in taking an Inventory, and tomor
row, Sunday will be spent In getting
things in shape for Monday’s open
ing. It is believed that Mr. Modini
will use all his great store of energy
in serving the public in the Inde
pendent Meat Market as diligently
and well, as he has done for the last
six years in the office of the Clerk
of the Court, and If he does, the pub
lic will be well served.
Mr. W. H. Webb, who has con
ducted the Independent Meat Mar
ket so long and so well, is leaving
with his wife for the States in the
near future. We are sorry to lose
Mr. Webb, but since he must go, we
believe that Mr. Modini, as his suc
cessor, will give great satisfaction,
and we wish him great success.
