While Pulling a Rifle Toward Him in Canoe on the kuSatriem River It Was Discharged kOppang Lived Only 3 Few Hours After.

A tragic .accident, resulting in the 'death of Sigurd koppang, d Norwegian, 24 years old, occurred on the kusatrem river on Friday evening, July l9.

While paddling up the stream d duck was seen, and kop- pang reached for his 44 caliber rifle, which lay in the bottom of the canoe, He caught it by the muZZle, and as he pulled it toward him it was discharged. the bullet striking him in the stomach above the navel.
 Several prospectOrs in boats for tunately happened to be withip call and two of them immediately turned kougarok City, with the wounded man and young Gunderson, who was com pletely prostrated by the fatal accident to his companion, Surgical aid wa- secured for. young koppang at Kouga- .rok City, where an examination was made of the wound. The bullet was found to have torn and lacerated the .intestines in terrible manner and then ranged upward, and it was soon found that there was no hope of saving .the unfortunate mans life. koppang died early Saturday morning.
 There were about 90 persons at Kougarok City, and a meeting was held to ascertain the facts as above. The proceedings were reduced to writ ing and signed by all present, and copies were sent to Judge Cochran, of Kougarok district, and Judge Gunder- son, of the Kusatriem district.

 INGENUITY SmOke!eSs Powder Is Made From Matches.
NAILS FOR BULLETS
Fire Arms Manufactured Under rlary Difficulties, but Are Wonderfully Effective What a Change Of Gov. ernment May Mean to Them.

The ingenuity of the Filipino, and says W. D. Evans. deputy collector of customs. at the port of Nome. Mr, Evans Was stationed for some time at Ilolio. where he Was in charge of the customs housc. In an interview the other day with the NUGGET Mr. Evans said.
 "While in charge of the customs service at Ilojl0. island of PanAy, the importation of vast quantiti", ot Japanese safety matchc, and their sub ,eQuent shipment past the insurgcnt lines was cause of considerable ,pocu- la,io as to their ultimate destination and use. For instance. one shipment, consisting of 9IO eases or bl4N.ou boxes, would last the match-burning community some time. and when other shipments of,the same nature arrived we looked around for the medium of consumption.
 "Onc of my house boys. who had been in the inSurgcnt army. said some thing one day about matchr, making good powder. and this gave me u clcW, so spoke of it to Captain Wotherepoom, of the 12th infantry. and We made some experiments one day in the warehouse of the customs house. The usual 4o-D Springfield shell was reloaded with different degrees of cOnpactn",S, aud the target was made by filling box. built of dOublO-inch pine, with wet sand. packed tight. the range distance being abOut l2O feet. The bullets penetrated this sand from . to ll3 inches, in some eases the bullet being entirely tcle,cuped or turned inside out, showing unusual velocity. An other feature of this match cartridge k that it was absolutely smokelcss, even in closed room.
 ''Thi, proved to he the solution of the unusual importations of matches i'll that section, as large numbers of these reloaded cartridges were found in an improvised arsenal in the interior of the i>lunG,
 '"rhe native ingenuity in fa~hioning firearms wa, wonderful. as One-pound rapii fire guns, made of cast brass. with a wood breach block, and muzzle loading guns made of ga, pi pc. in which black powder was used, with scrap iron and rusty nails for proiectiles. were also found, and their earthworkS, which criSs-croSs the entire country are pronounced by military experts to be perfection. Such things as rolling earth works. made of bamboo cylinders six feet in circumference and filled with dirt. were found. which showed their familiarity with the history of the French Revolution: and when one con sidcrs the time and labor, both physical and mental. expended by these black people during the two years of active operations against cur forces. the addition to the worlds wealth and benefit to themselves can hardly he computed in dollars and cents, had their efforts been properly directed"
