Hes Several Big Sporting Events on Hand, Which May Take Place
 in Nome.

'tBilly" Britt, formerly leading man on the Chronicle, blew, into Nome Wednesday morning from the steamer Senator, blithe, gay and debonpair, wearing a genial smile, good clothes, a turn-down collar, six inches high, red tie and new straw hat. .ss
 Billy went to San Francisco on, the first trip of tho Jeanie and seems to ,have had.a good time. While out he was in communication with a number of fighting men, including George Lavigne, ex.lightweight champion of the world; Joe Kennedy, who beat Gus Ruhlin: and Jack Stelzner, Lanky Bob Fitzsimmons' former sparring partner. The last two men expressed their willingness to come to Nome and battle among themselves or to meet Nick Burley in the fistic arena.
 MT. Britt will bring iE these men il proper encouragement is forthcoming, and he says that his terms are most reasonable.
 A match has been practically ar. ranged between Joe Bernstein and Jimmy Britt at l28 pounds, to take place in Nome. Jimmy Britt, although an amateur surprised the Pacific Coast recently by putting up three fierce rounds with Terry McGovern in San Francisco. t
 All that is needed to bring these sporting lights to Nome is a little money, and this Billy thinks will be

 Also Being Opened Up This g. Season.

Iron creek. ir the former Golden Gate district, seems to be destined to make record as gold producer. The earlier reports of rich dirt hayingibeen found are confirmed by Arthur M. Pope, who owns No. 6, above. Mir. Pope came over from Iron creek Mon. day. He says that the creek is qn- doubtedly rich, and he will return inn mediately. The creeks being opened up in that vicinity besides Iron are Sherritt, Dome. NoRth Fork, Canyon, Kate and Anna, Premier, Benson. Slate and Hard Luck. Many claims on these creeks are being developed, and pay is found on all. Benches have attracted but little attention, but it is thought that they, too, will afford rich dig gings.

.InvOking the Criminal Law TO Secure
 Possession of Disputed Timing Ground in kougarok District.-7
 lien Sent To Teller Jail.

Mary's 1gloo, July N.-The town now evidences none of the direful ef- fleets of the recent flood. All the strue- lures which were damaged have been repaired, the streets have been gray eled, many new buildings are in the course of erection, and the place has assumed the initial aspects of a boom mining camp. The attempts to ,estab- fish towns elsewhere in the vicinity proved futile4 John Zweifel, who ad- vertised tract of land. about two miles below here as the single safe place on the Kusatrien river, is the only man who has q tent in his proposed city. Commissioner Cochran still retains the recording office at Birch Hill, which is distant four miles up tue river; but, besides himself and his clerical em- ployes, the residents there are com prised of the indiyiduals who ,staked an SO-acre placer claim with tlre ex- pectation of subdividing it into town lots.

 On July 5 thc'1ast vestige of ice left Salt lake, and now, the waterway be- tween here and Teller is open for navi- gation. Several small boats have re- gently arrived, but no steam craft have made the tpip yet.
 During the past ten days, several leases over vaiuabie mining claims have ,occurped in the local court. The GUS tom prevails of invoking the criminal law to secure possession of disputed ground. Lillian Malcolm caused a warrant to issue for the arrest of John Hinkamon, Gust Alexson, John Filing stop, E. R. Alexander, .Dr. K. l.. Grav- ern and l. A. Wlckman. The defen- dants are accused of trespassing on a mining claim with intent to steal the gold therefrom, and such an offense amounts to 8 felony. The properties affected are Mes. 3 and below upper discovery on Quartz creek, and the pos session of the ground has been vested in the defendants since they made their locations last summer. Miss Malcolm claims title by virtue of an alleged prior location which covers all of No. 4 and part of No. 3. At the preliminary hearing, the defendants were held to await the action of the grand jury, and the bail of each is fixed at S2.5oO. Bondsmen were offered, but theyfailed of justification before the commissio- ner, and the prisoners have been taken to jail at Teller. Subsequent to the .hearipg, lavmen of Miss Malcolm com menced operations on the controverted properties.

FOR ENLIGHTENMENT.

Undersheriff Will Chellis returned
Thursday from Lake Geneva, accom-
panied by AdoIph Schneider, whom he
brought back, for the alleged crime OF
embezzlement. Schneider has for over
three years acted as manager OF the
business of the Wisconsin Telephone
company in this city, and has always
been considered an honest and trust
worthy fellow. He has received a good
salary, but as the company is doing a
very poor business here, many times
he was called upon to make levy
upon the Milwaukee office for funds to
pay the operating expenses here and at
Merrill, he having charge of both ex-
changes. About two weeks ago he sud-
denly left town, going to Lake Geneva
and hiring out to a man building a
summer resort, and made no effort to
conceal his identity. The company be-
came suspicious and made an inspec-
ton of his books, and claim to have
found a shortage of nearly $500.
Schneider was arrigned before Judge
Miller Friday on the charge of embez-
element. His trial was fixed for to-
morrow, giving him time to secure
counsel, and his bail was fixed at $500,
which he was unable to furnish, and he
has since been boarding with Sheriff
Marquardt Mr. Schneider's numerous
friends hope that at the trial tomorrow
he will be able to refute the charge
against him.

DEATH OF MRS. HEINEMANN.

Jedda Heinemann, wife of the late
Samuel Heinemann, died in this city,
at the home of her son, B. Heinemann,
last Saturday afternoon, May 18th,
1901, at o clock. Death was not I'M
expected, as deceased had been i'll for
the past three months, most of the time
confined to her bed, and for three days
previous to the end, had been very low.
For one of her age, she had, during her
life in Wausau, been enjoying splendid
health until year ago, when she
showed signs of decline.
Jedda Heinemann was born near
Wuerzburg, in Bavaria, Germany, on
the 10Th day of April, 1926. She was
united in marriage to Samuel Heine-
mann in 184S. and they went to Gruens-
field, in Baden, to reside. 1t was here
that their four sons were born, Nathan
and Benjamin, of this city; Sigmund, of
Merrill, and Solomon, of Milwaukee,
all of whom survive their mother. She
came to America with her husband in
1878, and since that year has made her
home in Wausau Her husband died
two years ago after 81 years of happy
married life. Deceased was a most ex-
cellent woman and was dearly beloved
by all who knew her. She took great
pride and comfort in the knowledge
that she had lived to see her sons
grown to manhood and-all we'll sup
piled with this worlds goods. She
owned and resided in her own home,
at Gil Grant street, when her health
permitted.
The funeral services took place from
the home of B. Heinemann, at II o'clock
Monday morning, the Rev. DIR. Ger
echter, of lions Congregation, of APP
pleton, officiating. The remains were
taken to Appleton for interment in the
family lot in the Jewish cemetery OF
that city, and were accompanied by
about forty relatives and friends of de-
ceased.
