containing at that time 40,000 people,
some Of them housed in tents and some
with no shelter at all. The crash came
in a few weeks, however, and the peo-
| pie were more anxious to get away than
they had been to get there. Messrs.
Couch and Brown stayed at Nome City
seven weeks, when they sailed for Seat
tie. Mr.. Couch says that there is plen-
| ty Of gold at Nome, but that it is diff
! cul to mine, even with improved machin-
! cry, and that the lone man with the
pick has no show at all. Neither he
nor Brown made any attempt at mining
but worked all the time they were there,
| receiving $50 per day each for their ser
vices. The cheapest board 10 be had
cost 81 per meal, and everything else
was in proportion. They brought back
several valuable souvenirs, in the shape
of nuggets and specimens of ore Mr..
Couch has a watch chain made entirely
! from small nuggets of virgin gold.
