TOO MUCH EXPENSE
To Transcribe the Records From the Books of Cape Nome District the Reason Asslgned-N Not the True One, however-Story Hay Follow.

"A few weeks ago Bonanza recording district was carved out of Cape Nome district, on petition of 3S0 of the miners of Bonanza district. NJ. J. Burns was appointed United States commissioner and recorder. and he was instructed to establish his headquarters at Port Safety. He did so. going to the ex- pense of securing new books of record runtil such time as the necessary records were being transcribed in the Nome office.
 Judge Burns was doing good busi- mess, and everything was working smoothly: but he soon found that Bo- ,nanza records were being recorded in Nome. He protested, but in vain. Last Saturday he came up ts Nome, only to find that he had been shOrn of the re- .cordership, but was graciously per .mitted to continue to fill the exalted .otIice of United States commissioner, the perquisites of which might amount ito as much as six bits month.
 The order resembling MT. Burns ap- pointment was dated August F. It set forth that ''complaints had been made and confusion of the records has result ed in the creating of the record ling dis trct known as Bonanza, and that a great deal of unnecessary expense will lbe incurred for the transcribing of the records from the books of the Nome re- ,cordipg district" Then the order ere ating the district was formally vacated.
 It is stated, however, that away be- hind this backing and filling" lies an ,Other and the true story which one day may see light.

ENDORSEMENT
 WITHDRAWN
Rev. s. Hall Young, D. D., With draws lis Endorsement of
 Judge Moves.

In its last issue the NUGGET made editorial mention as to the endorse ments given Judge Moves by number of local clergymen, two of them being only temporary residents of Nome, to Judge Moves, at his solicitation.
 Of these reverend gentlemen, Dr. Young and bishop Rowe were mildly criticised for presuming to speak for Judge Moves and of conditions which they necessarily could know little about. The following letter, however, is self-explanatery, as it shows that Dr. Young has acted in straightforward manner, but he admits that his action in endorsing Judge Moves and his acts was hastv and ill-advised. It is here with printed in full:
 Nome, Alaska, Aug. l6 1901. Hon, Arthur H. Moves,
 Judge, etc.:
 Dear Sir-A careful investigation oi court records at Nome and other in- formation has convinced me that my letter to the atLOrney-general, which was placed in your hands two days ago, endorsing you and your public acts in Alaska, was nasty and ill-advised. Therefore, as in my telegram sent by this mail, to be wired from iitSt office, ask you to withhold said letter and re. turn it to me. do not wish to go upor record as taking either side. $.

Natfonal-Ann Russell.

It was probably a practical workman
who first remarked that while bricks were
very generally the same, by proper com
binations of the small blocks, various
forms of edifices were made. This very
obvious conclusion in actual architecture
holds good in the dramatic armament. as
was last evening demonstrated to the cul-
tured and scholarly audience assembled
to greet Annie Russell in her new play
"A Royal Family. Capt. Robert Mar
shall the author of the three-act comedy,
has taken one of the oldest forms of plot,
and by a unique combination Of circum-
stance and incident builded from it
dramatic structure at once commenda bic,
admirable, and novel. Last evenings
presentation was the first of Captain Mar
shalrs in Washington. and in the outset
ii is not too much to say that from a
purely literary point of view, "A Royal
Family is the best bit of dramatic COM
position seen in the Capital City for many
a year.
"A Royal Family has, primarily as it's
idea a good-humored satire upon the
practices Of royalty. This vein of humor
prevails throughout the three acts
heightened by the wit of the lines and
the color of the underlying and partially
sad counterplot. The story is laid in the
mythical kingdom of Arcadia, "A tiny State
on the verge of war with the neighboring
kingdom of Kurland. The State is in poor
preparation for the conflict, which can
only be averted by the marriage of Prin-
cess Angela to Victor, Crown Prince cf
Kurland. The Princess. however. being a
very up-to-date young woman with rather
Julietish ideas regarding love and matri-
mony. sets her royal foot down and de-
clares that she Will not marry a man she
has never seen and cannot love. In the
extremity the aid of the Cardinal Casauo
is sought by the King and the willy priest
contriYes to smuggle the Prince into the
palace and have him meet the Princess
The result is inevitable, for without
knowing that he really is the Prince the
Princess falls In love with him and re-
mains ignorant of his identity until the
moment Of her public betrothal The
strange and potent counter plot of the
hopeless love of young priest for his
princess throws the lighter love element
into strong relief, u touch at once power
ful and unique.
This simple tale of the heart Ifghtened
by the brightest of dialogue and incident.
is told in the wittiest manner in situa-
tions at once natural and forceful The
study of the old school Queen, contrasted
with her granddaughter; of the mimic
trials of the royal family; of the woes of
childish aristocrats; of the good -humored
craft of the clergy; of their hopeless
loves and hidden lives; all are so evenly
