ation, the Coast Guard Cutter Bear,

this morning from St. Michael, where

her last appearance here.

Dime creek Saturday afternoon with a

The Admiral lino freight steamer
Admiral Goodrich arrived in port early
Sunday morning and commenced the
discharge of a considerable quantity
of cargo for this port. Before coming
to Nome, the freighter visited St.
'Michael and unloaded a large amount
of freight for up river points.
The Alaska Steamship <’<•. freighter
l<a touche is still engaged in loading
railroad steel at Bonanza and will pro
bably not return to Nome before an
other two or three days have passed.
It is stated that there Is also a prospect
that the steamer may go to St. Mich
ael t«» pick up a cargo of packed fish
from the Yukon cannery before com
ing back.
John Hegness, master of the Hettic
B reported on his last trip Friday that
the freighter Cordova was lying in the
ice about twenty five miles off Cape
Spencer at the time his vessel departed
from Port Clarence. The ice was so
dense petween the shore and the
steamer’s position at that time that it
was practically impossible for her to
get through to Lost river, for which
port the steamer carries a large freight
cargo.
Despite the absence of the usual
parade. Nome’s celebration of the na
tional birthday Friday was as enjoy
able as any of its predessors. owing
to limited space the Nugget is unable
t<* give a lengthy resume of the exer
cises, which were both Interesting and
varied, from the addresses in the open
air at Barrack's Square to the last
strains of the very excellent orchestra
at the grand ball in honor of the army
and navy men of the city given dur
ing the evening at Kagle Hall. Suffice
to say everything passed off in ac
cordance with the scheduled program
and everyone, from the irrepressible
and noisy small boy to the oldest in
habitant, enjoyed the celebration to
the full.
Wires reaching the city this morn
ing announce that the steamer Victoria
departed from Seattle today. Deports
that the steamer is scheduled to stop in
at Ladysmith for coal before coming to
Nome with a resultant delay In her ar
rival here are somewhat discredited
by the statement of Agent U.A. Carroll
that the vessel probably went to Lady
smith during the interval between her
arrival at Seattle June 30 and the time
of sailing on the return voyage to
Nome. Mr. Carroll states that he has
no definite advices to this effect, but
Is confident that such Is the case.
Owing to an unfortunate accident
to Capt. Chas. Weckman shortly after
the Alaska departed on a trading trip
to Siberia, whereby that well known

of the engine, the schooner returned to
port n few hours after sailing July 4tli
to enable Weckman to secure medical
attention, hut departed again yester
day morning.
In addition to losing a portion of one
finger, several other digits on the same
hand were cut and badly bruised. After
recovering from the shock, Weckman
decided that he could get along all
right and was in charge of the schooner
when she departed. L. Seidenverg.
co-partner with Weckman in the Alas
ka, went along to look after the trad
ing end of the expediton.

Lost Hiver section on the Hettio 11
Friday, reports that a crew of about
forty men are employed at the mine
at present and predicts an immense
amount of development work will be
accomplished during the season. Mr.
Lester has been employed at the mine
for sever?! years past and resects ilie
opinion that the coining season will
see the mine placed on a substantial
productive basis by the present oper
ators. tin- .1. !•'. Hal pin company,
which lias bonded the property. I .es
ter is a practical hard rock miner of
'many years experience and says that
[there is not the least doubt that under
the present management the mine is
to become one of the most important
industrial centers of the district.
There is an abundance of ore contain
ing good working values in sight and
the company is going at things, he
says, in a way that shows it means
business.

tent ion to the ordinance inhibition and'
lire permitting their animals to roam
the streets at will. This, *they clalmJ
is manifestly unfair to those who ob
serve tho law by keeping their dogs
tied up in conformity to the ordinance.
Considering that the pet animals nrc(
so few that they can hardly be. looked
upon as a nuisance if permitted free
dom and also that, unlike many of the
sled animals, they represent no men- j
ace to tho public, it seems rather hardj
that they should be tied up but the I
owners should take cognizance of thcj
tact that the ordinance makes no ex
emptions if they would spare themsel-1

mals killed.
The long absence of the (Lindeberg
fishing tug Orion Is causing consider
able uneasiness among those with
friends aboard. The vessel departed
on a trading trip to the Kuskokwim
section shortly after the departure of
tin' ice park in early June and has not
sincp been reported. The tug was in
chaige of John Olson, wirier manager
of the Lindehcrg fish plant at the time
of her departure anil also carried Chris.
Cuilmundsun, the,well known fur trad
er. It is surmised that the vessel may
not have been able to reach the Kusko
kwim section until long after leaving
Nome because of the unusual Ice condi
tions and as a result has not completed
her trading itinerary. It is reported
ihat a native arriving from the Yukon
delta recently said that lie had heard i’.
said that the Orion was at Nelson Is.,
about two weeks ago. Beyond this
meager information nothing has been
heard regarding the tug since*her de
parture.
