PERIL0US JOURNEY
The Herd Was in Charge of Lieut.. E. P. BerthOlff, of the Revenue Cutter Service, Who Went to the Tunguse Section of Siberia.

Teller. Aug. 30.-On the morning of August 18th the Russian steamship Progress dropped anchor in front of the Teller reindeer station. On board was Lieut.. F.. P. Bertholf, R. C. S, with herd of 254 reindeer, which were landed on that day and the next.
 The herd is from the Tunguse region of Siberia, and represents the largest herd of reindeer known in a state of domesticity. The Tun2use country is l,0o0 miles north of Irkutsk, the pres ent terminus of the great trans-Siberian railway. On his way to that country, Lieutenant Bertholtf in his haste had to break a road through a hundred miles of snow, waste deep on the level, with snow drifts much deeper. To ac- complish this several Tunguse, mounted on the backs of their reindeer. ploughed through the snow. The men riding lead other deer: they were followed by deer drawing empty sleds, and finally came the deer teams and sleds loaded with Lieutenant BerthOltf, his party and haggage. The ocean voyage of 2,300 miles proved unusually stormy and rough, so that number of the deer died from the effects of their bruises after they were landed. Still the addition is d valuable one to the existing herds.
 There were previously 3.9l2 reindeer in the several herds of Alaska. and the new arrivals will, during the coming winter, be divided among them for breeding purposes.

Councilman w. H. McPhee will ten der his resignation and he will be a passenger on the Roanoke. bound for San Francisco. where he will spend the winter, alternating between "the city, and his ranch.
 Councilman McPhee has made an eX- cellent member; he is indefatigable always, an1 never lacks the courage of his convictions: if he has anything to say he says it in q way the meaning of which no one need misunderstood.
 The city council held a meeting on Wednesday and an ordinance was passed investing the mayor with power to fill vacancies in the council by ap- pointment. The passage of the ordin- ance was vigorously opposed by Rick ard. Harri, and Stevens, but they were in the minority, and the ordinance went through. Several sharp passages at arms occurred between Hoxsie, the father of the measure, Rickard and Stevens, who held that the power to fill a vacancy ought not to be vested in the mayor.
 Councilman McPhee's resignation will not be placed before the council for some time yet. Several names are men, tionel for hi, place, but whether any of the gentlemen named will accept is not known, Among those mentioned for the place are T. J. Nestor, George Murphy and E. $. Ryan.

Institution That is Doing
 Good Work
], IT COSTS LITTLE
; comparatively Speaking Everything
 About the Hospital Gives Evidence of Care. and Cleanliness ss-Ten Pa
 ctlents now in the Wards.

Not much is heard of the City hos pital or the good work that it is doing in caring for the sick and distressed. Nevertheless that work is being quietly pursued and there are many men to day in Nome who owe their lives to the friendly shelter and care given them at the City hospital without money and without price.
 The City hospital is not, strictly speaking, a new institution in Nome. Away back in 1899 when the town was >very young and crude, a city hospital was one of the first institutions estab- lished by the consent government = It was conducted under different cir. cumstances, but it was maintained for some time, as some of the local trading companies know, for they contributed largely to it's support. When the con- sent government passed out of existence in the early spring of l90o, the hospital had already ceased to exist, and through the enterprise and support of number of citizens, notably Geo. Murphy and Dr. Rininger, the indigent sick were cared for at St. Bernard, now the Nome general hospital. This lasted for a time. hut finally no more funds were available and the sick were left to shift for them selves, as best they could. However. at the beginning of this year, the Cham Der of Commerce, which had already been instrumental in raising money for hospital purposes, again took up the work nd Dr. Grigsby was guaranteed ' stated sum for caring for certain number of patients. This arrangement continued until the incorporation of the town, when one of the first acts of the city council was the securing of one of the barracks buildings, and it was soon turned into connections hospital. un- def the direction of the health officer nr. s. j. Call, and Dr.. J. Tiedemann was appointed superintendent.
 The hospital has not lacked patients iuce it was opened. They have been coming and going with great regularity. The smallest number at any one time has been eight, and as many as F have hDen cared for. Just now there are ten patients in the hospital. Last night a NUGGET reporter visited it, and Dr. Hedemann courteously showed him aver the building. Everything is in apple>pie order, neat and clean. The main ward is on the second floor and there is ample evidence on all sides of care bestowed in caring for, the sick, Adjoining the mems ward is the wo- mans ward; just now it is unoccupied. An adjoining room serves asa reception room for patients, and attached to it is bath room where the patient is given n bath and change of clothes before heinz placed in the ward. The kitchen and dining room are on the first floor.
 With the approach of winter room on the first floor will be used as the mems ward as it will be more easily heated and will he more comfortable. Whatever may be said of other depart ments of the city government it is true, that the hospital is conducted on most economical basis and is credit to the city council who inaugurated it, the people who maintain it and it's manage ment.
