LOWEST TEMPERATURE
OF THE WINTER
as HEIiOW ZERO
With the thermometer registering
28 below zero Friday morning.
Nomeites realized that old Jack
Frost had tightened his belt anoth°r
notch and made another furious as
sault upon the rapidly diminishing
coal piles. Fortunately this, the
coldest morning, registered no wind
and thereby actual suffering was
avoided by both man and beast.
Alaskans can combat the sever.*
cold but when the elements lash
themselves into a furious blizzard
accompanied by a low temperature,
man's ingenuity fails and shelter
and a roaring tire are immediately

! ROSS TELLS OF VIC VOYAOE
—
The steamship Victoria, while en
route from Nome to Seattle last fall,
was delayed thirty hours at Unimak
Pass by severe weather, and was
also forced to run hove to for twenty
seven hours outside of the pa6s, mak
ing only about two knots per hour
during that period, according to a
letter mailed to the Nugget at Sew
ard November 18th. by Capt. Thomas
A. Ross.
Capt. Ross also confirms earlier
wire reports regarding the trunks
belonging to Miss Catherine Anpher
and Mrs. Alice Jordan, which were
stolen prior to the Victoria's depar
ture from Nome, in stating that they
had not been located up to the time
the vessel reached Seward. He also
reports that the passengers took up
a collection to present to Miss Helen
Bruner as a wedding present on the
occasion of her marriage to Mr.
Chas. Smith, which occurred im
mediately after the steamer reached
Sew’ard.
WEEKLY MAIL .ARRIVES
A large dispatch of Outside mail
arrived in charge of Carrier Pete
Curran Friday afternoon. Both
first and second class matter was
included in the batch, which was
made up largely of letter mail of
mid November dates, altho a num
ber of parties receiving letters dated
as far back as September 17. As
the Victoria did not leave Seattle
on her last trip to Nome until Octo
ber 26, a month or more after these
belated letters were posted, it ap
pears that something was decidedly
wrong with the mail service last
fall. The public. In view’ of these
fa$ts, has decidedly jutifiable rea
sons for complaint at a mail service
that holds up large quantities of first
class mail while navigation is open,
to forward it later by routes which
require practically two months to
