THIS IS NOT A KK K!
IT IS ONLY A “SQUAWK”
The following is taken from the
Independent Squawk, a paper which
was published without provocation
or reason, aboard the Victoria on
her first trip north:
| XOMK Cilllli OtTTRAGKD
I It was In the Summer of 10 22
when Fairbanks rode into Nome on
a White Horse. Here he met Ruby,
.a beautiful daughter of Nome. A
j whirlwind courtship followed. He
j had a Skagway about him and was
willing to Teller anything. Juneau
he won her. They were married by
St. Michael at Holy Cross. NOW
is it learned that the wedding was a
fake, just a Bluff. He has cast her
from his home clad only In an Ka-st
Cape. A Council was called in
Nome and the Marshall is hot on his
trail. It is rumored that the villain
Fairbanks is seeking Anchorage in
I Dime Creek. Alaska law must act
I with Hot Springs and play the Rain
part. Circle the Territory if neces
sary with an Eagle boat but put that
fiend where he will never leave an
other beautiful daughter of the
of the Northland Flat.
Ruby, the beautiful daughter of
Nome, from their home at Golovin,
following the discovery that their
marriage was a Bluff, lias been cap
tured. Happy in his escape, he was
drifting down Gold Stream when
his boat upset on the Klondike,
which is a Beaver Dam about Forty
Mile below Dawson. He was seen
by Solomon the Dike man. and St.
Michael who was on a Russian Mis
I sioti. The Marshal was sent for im
■ mediately. We believe the Inde
pendent Squawk voices the senti
ment of the entire Northland in de
: mantling that this fiend be brought
j to justice. He should be chained to
an Anvil and unmercifully flogged
with an I-dit-a-rod. That is the
I only course that will insure the
Safety of Alaskan womanhood. If I
the Council does nothing but Wran
wel.1 or places a fine of a Dime on |
this Snake, the Alaskans must act j
with our only lawful weapon, our!
Domes, and demand the resignation !
of the entire Council. Ruby was I
brought to Nome by Candle light |
and her Wales could be heard for I
Miles. The sympathy of the entire I
ration goes out to this girl.
I.KTTEK M AILED IV AIM TIC
HEACHTS ITS DESTINATION j
Four years ago Ruold Amundsen, i
the noted Arctic and Antarctic ex
plorer. mailed a letter in the Far
North to a friend in Minneapolis.
Minn. After various adventures the
communication reached its destina-j
tion.a few days ago, bearing on its i
face an epic of the postal service
at the world's edge. Eskimo car-'
ricrs and dog teams which started
with the letter across the Siberian
wilderness had succumbed to cold
and starvation and their mail pouch 1
laid for nearly four years preserved j
by ice and snow, until last Summer. |
when a party «>f Russians discovered j
it. They sent the letter to Amund- j
sen’s brother in Norway by whom it
was sent to its destination.
THKY IM>
Two men, strangers to each other,
sat side by side in a suburban train.
Finally, one turned to the other and
became confidential.
“I,” he said impressively, “am a
starter of elevator in a city sky
scraper. When I signal them to go
up, they go up. And your line
“I,” said the other, “am an un
dertaker. When l signal them to
go down, they go down.*’
ANOTHER WARNING
Robert James, Game Warden for
this section, has received numerous
complaints relative to parties shoot
ing ptarmigan. It should be remem
bered by everyone that the ptarmi
gan season is now closed, as this is
termed the mating season. Officer
James states he will make it hot for
anyone found breaking the law.

LOCAL NEWS
MISSION IIOLOS OPKV HOl'SK
The Lavtnna Wallace Young
.Mission for Eskimos held open
house Thursday from 2 to "» p. m..
at which time the people of Nome
were privileged to witness an ex
hibition of hand work accomplished
by the children of the Mission,
which would have done credit to
an exhibition of needle craft bv
much more experienced hands. A
number of beautiful pieces of tatt
ing. crocheting and embroidery
were on display. among them a
beautifully made embroidered bed
room set. luncheon sets, doilies and
many other dainty exhibits of nee
dle craft. An exhibit of afghans,
artistically displayed in boxes
which were neatly and cleverly
made of wall paper hv the boys,
created considerable interest among
the visitors. An added interest
was given this exhibit by the fact
that a number of little girls were
busily engaged in tying an afghan
while the exhibition was in pro
gress. A display of mitten cords,
drawing kits, kodak books and oth
er articles, both novel and useful
in character, were among the clev- j
er creations made by the boys. An
exhibit of baking, bread browned to
just the proper shade and pie like
mother used to make, looked ap
petizing enough to gjaee the table
of the most particular diner.
Dainty refreshments were served
to the guests, a number of little
girls in pretty white frocks acting
the part of most charming little
hostesses.
Considerable credit must be ac
corded the teachers of the Mission,
v hose untiring efforts were every
where in evidence in the excellent
character of the work on display.
Their reward is not in material pro
fit but in the knowledge of accom
plishment of purpose and the ful
fillment of a deed well done
The exhibit will be sent to the
National meeting of the Woman’s
Home Missionary Society to be held
in Chicago this Fall.
