Aftermath. of the Tug-of-War.

Editor NUGGET: The last issue of your paper stated that the winners of the tug-of-war tournament had been challenged by the Nome fire depart ment team for a purse of 5000. No challenge of any kind from that or any other source has so far been received by the Canadian team.
 In this connection permit us to cor rect few mistaken ideas concerning the recent contest. The Canadian team was composed entirely of Amer ican citizens, whom we trnst our Scan dinavian citizens will pardon for taking a shortcut to citizenship by crossing all invisible boundary line rather than the more circuitous route by way of Nor way and Sweden. One of our number is proud of the fact that he cast his first vote for Abraham Lincoln, two of us are American born, while all of us owe allegiance to the Stars and Stripes alone. We. therefore, cannot appre- cate the howl that is going up about Americans being defeated by Cana dians, when we are informed that among the two teams from this town but two or three born Amerlcans can be found.
 Exception has also been taken to the belt worn by our anchor man. The nature of it was explained to Cap a in McNicholas. of the fire team, and he was advised to get something similar, since it prevented the rope from slip ping and injurlng he wearer.
 In closing let us say that we appre- ciate the courtesy shown us at all times by Captain McNicholas and the manly fashion in which he and his team accepted defeat, while at the same time not forgetting the pluck displayed by gether at the eleventh hour, thereby adding great interest to the tourna- nament. Yours,
 CANADIAN TCG.oF-WAR TEAM.

Colon, Columbia, Dec. 2s.-The fol- Nwing dispatch has been received from Panama:
 ' tiGeneraI Alban says that he has con- elusive proof that the president of Sal vsdor has been assisting the revolution- iSts. Fifteen. hundred of the latter from Tumaco, under Herrera, landed on the peninsula of Tonosi, near San- tiago de Veragua. The small garrison atthat place fought for five hours. but when the rebels landed at several points they could not resist the attack. The government has concentrated all its forces under General Castro and is sending more troops to his aid. A battle is expected to take place shortly, but as endorsements are coming from BarranquAa,4 General Alhan has no fear of the ultimate success of the army defending the republic.
