ICE AND STORM FORCE
KETCRN OF JEWEL GUARD
Cumbering masses of slush ice and
| wintry gales along the eastern-coast.
I forced the return here Thursday
I morning of the Mission schooner
Jewel Guard, Andy Otterson, master.
[ which sailed from Nome during the
latter days of last week in an at
tempt to reach St Michael.
Severe weather attended the
schooner almost from the time of
her departure and culminated in a
close escape from being caught fast
in the gathering ice while in Golo
vin Ray. which was the furtherest
point the schooner reached.
Save within a short distance of
Nome, the vessel encountered slush
ice every where along hefr path.
On reaching Golovin the slush be
came so thick and heavy the schoon
er encountered great difficulty in
getting out of the bay-after a stormy
stay of several days. . Heavily coated
with ice despite all her crew could
do to keep the vessel clear. Capt.
Otterson finally gave up the struggle
and returned to Nome. The con
siderable quantity of motion picture
film, freight and mail matter was
unloaded and the schooner is now
in winter quarters.

SHOVE1. CREEK DREDGE
HAS GOOD SEASON
Andy Xylen and Fred Fischer
owners of the Shovel Creek dredge,
are in the city and report that al
though dredging operations in that
section were greatly handicapped by
the late opening of the season and
the early freezeup. the Shovel Creek'
dredge, notwithstanding the natural
difficulties attending so many of our
local mining operations, was able to
achieve a very favorable season.
Messrs Xylen and Fischer will re
main in Xome for the winter and re
turn to their dredge as soon as
weather conditions are favorable for
mining next summer.
RUSSIAN TRADER FROZEN
IN SNAKE RIVER
The power schooner Friedolf Hek,
owned an.! operated by Max Gotts
chalk. is frozen in just above the

ed some w'eeks ago and was being re
paired and rapidly refitted when the
early freezeup of the river caught
and has since held her fast.
