Harry 1. Baldwin Meets His
 Death.
cAPSlZlNG OF BOAT
Harry l.. Baldwin Was the Son of E. T. Baldwin, of Nome Accident Occurred July I, in Grantiey Har- bor.

Teller, July 3.-A very sad accident occurred last Tuesday evening. Harry l.. Baldwin was drowned in Granite, harbor, near the mouth Of Coyote creek
 A man named Frye. who had come down on the Diamond K, came ashore and reported that Mir. Kleinschmid, needed some gasoline. Young Baldwin went out in d Peterboro with q case of gasoline. When he reached the Diamond K. Mir. Kleinschmidr threw him line. He was apparent, making fast the rope, when he lost the line and the boat was capsixed Mir kleinschmidt endeavored to reverse the engine. at the same time calling out, "Hold on to the boat, Harry" and Harry called back "Yes." Having trouble with the engine, he did not look back for several seconds When he looked again Harry was clnging to the floating case of gasoline and MT. kleinschmidt called out to him to hold on to the boat. As he Ut last sue. ceeded in reversing the engine, he saw Harry splashing in the water, and be. fore he could reach him he sank.
 Mr. kleinschmidt circled around for quite while near the spot where Harry sank, striking the boat a number of times. He hoped for time to be able to rescue the young man, but at last returned to Teller.
 Four boats immediately started out for the place of the accident. A buCv was dropped near the place where the body sank and several hours were spent in dragging for it, but to no purpose. The next day the Diamond K and two other boats went out with giant powder, which was exploded in 30 or 40 places without success.
 The deceased was a son of Mir. F. r. Baldwin, now at Nome and formerly manager of the A. F.. Company. Young Baldwin was greatly liked by all who knew him. He was about 10 years old and has been employed with the Beau Mercantile Company about two years. He spent last winter on the P. J. Abler. which lay at the mouth of the Agiapuk : river in Salt lake. The sympathy of the community is extended to the be- reaved family.

1.-The Tan From Nome |"

During Frank Biggs' soiourn in his old home in England, last winter, he was royalty received by his friends. At a dinner given in his honor one even- ing, friend. George H. IStainton, read the following, which will be appreci- ated by NUGGET readers. It is entitled "Ihe Man From Nome." He's pious and subdued-nay. in fact he's quite
 pruae And you wonder how he ever crossed the foam He'll reprove you if you grin. he's been never
 known to sin, For they're very strictly proper up at Nome. Should you venture on joke, you'll be sorry
 that you spoke, For adown his nose the bitter tear will roam: With uplifted hands and eyes, and an air of
 shocked surprise. "Oh! we never do such naughty things at
 Nome.' For the fair he has no eye, and he heaves q
 modest sigh, Should some syren need his escort to her home. If you wish to kill him quite you can teke him
 out at night u In that quite ideal spot, man can realize his lot And his philanthropic works would fill tome: Hes provcrbially sedate, he'll convert you -whiie
 you wait" And you'll bless the day that took you up to
 Nome. His propriety's sublime, while he's sober to
 crime, And he never does beano in the glome; With his creed he's quite "au fait," he pursues
 his heavenward way, Aud 'tis paradise reflected up at Nome. Now, that's his account-oh. my! but I'll ask
 you to rely For sober fact on this veracious pome;' Don't believe this perjured youth, for the plain
 unvarnished truth, Is-they re devils undiluted up at Nome.

A Lively Scandal Unearthed in Dawson.
GRAFT OF $50,Cco
Collector Of Customs D. w. Davis Forced to Tender fiis Resignation, After Having Been Suspended An Inspector Also Resigns.

Vancouver. E. C., June 23. A special l from Dawson says: One of the biggest sensations Of the year culminated in the resignation today of D. W. Davis, collector of customs of the port of Daw- son, who had been suspended on Satur- day night. Alexander A. Cook. for merly of Vancouver, has also resigned and has severed his connection with the customs department.
 The upheaval in the government office was the result of an examination of books and papers and entries made by 5. w. McNIichael. chief inspector ot the Canadian customs department. and by his assistant, Mr. Belton. Messrs. McMichaels and Belton arrived in Daw- son twoweeks ago, and since that time have been making expert examinations of the affairs of the office. The charge is made that Davis received a large sum of money from the Alaska Exploration cOmpany, and as a result, that the gov ernment was defrauded out of large amount of revenue.
 While it is impossible to obtain de tail of the official figures, the claim against the company, with penalties. is said to be in the vicinity of s50, coo. F.. $. Busby, formerly Canadian inspector at Skagway, and later inspector for the entire district, has been appointed tenI- porarily to fill the vacancy. and it is probable that his appointment will be made permanent
 Other charges in connection with the discovery of the alleged frauds may be made, and it is expected that some fur ther sensation may be unearthed. Both men affected are well known in the de- partment. Davis has been here holding office since 1898.
 The mounted police will be with drawn from Dawson at the end of this month. Mai. Z. T. Wood has written a letter to the city council of Dawson, stating that this action had been decid ed upon by the department at Ottawa, and he requested that arrangements should be made for the establishment of a police force in the city, the same as in outside municipalities. This is being done, and on the first of July new chief of police will take charge of the department.
 Inspector Starnes, of the mounted po- lice, and one of the oldest officers in the Yukon, has been ordered to report to Regina, and will probably be in Van- couver within ten days. It is understood that he will receive good post in the territories. Inspector Walk. now in the Porcupine, will take Inspector Starnes' place in Dawson, and Inspector McDon- nell is promoted to the Porcupine dis trict.
 The rate war in Dawson has resulted in the quoting of a rate of S32 from Daw- son to Vancouver.
