 THE IRON SPRINGS COLONY. - The Iron Springs colony is breaking up for this season. About thirty mem- bers came in last night in a passenger
 
 are enthusiastic over the future of that mountain resort and are impatient to get back there again next season. Tn y believe the population of Iron Springs will be doubled then. All the desir- able lots have already been taken: that iz, all of them convenient to the springs, but the world in that vicinity is wide and many others will no doubt be willing to undertake the hardship of carrying water a great distance for the sake of living there.
 BACK TO THE COLD, COLD NORTH. Senator w. A. Freeze has sold out his interest in the Palace Sd loon and with the exception of some | al estate. all his Arizona property.

He has some intere sts in Nome now in the care of his partners. and he really intended l. return when he came back a week or two ago.

 A LETTER FROM NOME.-A friend of David Turner in this city yesterday a letter from him in which he said: T am now in Nome and it is a big fizzle for this season. There are thousands here waiting to get away as soon as the rates are low enough. Last week there was rate man here who booked passengers to Seattle for $15. There are a great many Phoenix pee pie here anxious to get home. There must be faith in the future of Nome. for large frame buildings are going up in every direction. The weather was mild and delightful up to August l. but since then it has been cold and stormy. The old timers say there will be ID change for the better until win ter sets in. It is very cold and sqUally now and as the town is nearly all buig- on tundra, a messy peat bog. it is very easy to sink down to your knees. That part of the town near the beach has nice sandy roaGs. Nearly all the best mines are in litigation and the others have not enough rain this sea- son to enable them itO wash tS S=ir dirt. Outfits of all kinds can be bought cheaper here than in Seattle. as people who want to leave sacrifice everything. If nothing prevents. l will be in PhOe- nix this fall In postscript written
