 0F N0ME: A Well-knOwn Lawyer and Mine Investor
STATES HIS 0PENl0N
Room in Northwestern Alaska for Both the Individual Miner
 and Corporation.

". II. Nelson. the well-known attor- ney of Nome and San Francisco, left for the outside on the Senator. It was Mr. MetsOn's intention to remain in Nome until the close of navigation, but important business called him un- eNpectedly to San Francisco.
 1t may not be generally known, but nevertheless Mr. Metson is largely in- terested in mining ventures in this section. Besides being d successful legal practicioner, he is an extensive mine owner, not only in Nome but in various parts of the United States.
 Mir. Nelson is largely interested in Topkok mining property and also in Nome district. One of the best paying claims in this section was purchased through his foresight and advice. Be sides his mining speculatiOns in Nome, Mr. Nelson has also made fortunate investments in Tonopah, Nev. One of the best payin. mines in that section reckons him as one of the principal owners.
 The old-timers of 1900 will always re- member MT. Nelson. He was foremost among those who made the fight againt receivers for mining claims: his life was threatened many a time, but he never swerved from the plain line of what he considered to be his duty. He won the fight, for he is good fighter, a loyal friend and an honest enemy. He conceals nothing when it comes to "man and man. His friends know him and trust him, and his enemies, and he has them like all men of force and character respect him.
 As stated above, Mr. Nelson came to Nome in 1900. He has studied con- ditions thoroughly and Nome has no more loyal friend than he. He does not believe that Northwestern Alaska is to be gobbled up by few corpor- ations. There is room for all, he says. The individual miner will flourish alongside of the big corporation, for there is no country on earth which presents the same opportunities to in dividual effort as does the Seward pen insula of Northwestern Alaska.
 Besides being q lawyer of repute and mining man of experience, Mir. Met son is a rancher as well. He has a fine ranch in California, and some of the best known asparagus is cultivated on his California farm.

The phony $j piece was probabl. one of the many that was fabricated ol the outside for distribution in the rusl of 1900, but the plan failed, for only limited amount found their way int circulation.

LOVE Is UNIVERSAL.
Prince and Pauper Acknowledge Its
Mighty Power.
Some Royal Proposals Which Were
Based Upon Mutual Respect and
Admiration and Ended In
Happy Marriage.

Many people are possessed of the
Idea that, as royal marriages have
generally to be arranged as affairs
of state, the prospective bridegroom
has no occasion to WOO his bride as
the average man would do This,
however, is a totally erroneous idea,
as will be found on reading the fol-
lowing authentic accounts, from Lon
don Tit-Bits. of how and where some
royalties proposed TO those who ulti-
mately became their wives.
1t was at Rosenberg, the palace of
the Danish royal family, that King
Edward VII. proposed to and was ac-
cepted by our gracious queen. bis
najesty-then, of course, prince of
Wales-frst saw his wife in the
was so impressed with her beauty
that he determined TO secure an in
PRODUCTION on learning who the prin-
cess was. The result of that intro
duction was that a short time after
wards the prince went over to Den
mark and made a formal claim for
the hand of the princess.
A charming story is that told re-
garding the manner in which the late
Emperor Frederick of Germany, then
crown prince, proposed to the prin-
cess royal (the late Empress Fred
erick). The two became separated
from the rest of a royal party, who
were taking a walk over a Scotch
moor III the vicinity of Balmoral-
Suddenly the crown prince spied bit
of white heather, and picking it up
gave it TO the young girl beside him
for the princess was barely is
years of age at the time. She knew,

and then drew a lesson from the par
able.
The next Sunday another minister
came. He, too, decided that the prOdi-
gal son episode offered the best op-
portunity for a discourse, and he used
the story as basis of his talk. So did
the other ten preachers, and for II
successive Sundays the inmates of the
reformatOry heard with patient fOrti-
tude of the young man who left hong,
who ate husks with the swine, and
returned to the paternal roof and
caused the slaughter of the fatted
calf.
Then the chaplain returned home.
He had little time TO prepare sermon,
so he fell back Oh the prodigal son, a
theme with which he was familiar, and
which was always appropriate. He
did not know that hrs listeners had
been treated to a dozen dissertations
on the subject, but the roar of laugh
ter that greeted him when he an
nounced his text told him that some
thing was wrong. He appealed to one
of the prisoners for an explanation,
and was told:
Back up an change cars, boss.

you've been gone. Tell us about Jonah

gift, and whispered ''yes" loud
enough for her companion to hear.
During the remainder of their lives
BalmOral always had great attrac-
tions for the emperor and empress.
White Lodge. Richmond park, was
the place where our present prince
of Wales woOed and won the heart
of Princess May. The prince went on
a visit for few weeks to his sister,
the duchess of Fife, who lived at
Sheen house, near the park gates.
Every day his royal highness could
be seen strolling down Sheen lane,
leading to White Lodge, and it was
in the gardens round that mansion
that he put the all-important ques-
tion.
In describing how the marquis of
Lorne, now, of course, the duke of
Argyll, proposed TO Princess Louise.
one cannot do better than quote the
record made of the event by Queen
Victoria in her Leaves from the
Journal of Life in the Highlands"
The queen wrote:
This was an eventful day. Our
dear Louise became engaged to Lord
Lorne. The event took place during
a walk from the GlassaIt ShieI to
Loeb Dhu. We got home by seven.
Louise, who returned some time aft
er, told ne that LOrne had spoken of
his devotion to her and proposed to
her, and that she had accepted him.
knowing that should approve
1t was at the same palace, i. e.,
Rosenberg, the seat of the Danish
royal family, where our king pro-
posed 10 the daughter of the sea
kings" that the present car asked
Princess Aliz of Hesse in 1894 to be
his wife. He had made up his mind
long before that if he married IL
would be to whom he pleased rather
than one commended TO him by his
counSellOrs for state reasons. His
choice fell upon Princess Alix. and a
party wns arranged at Rosenberg to
allow Nicholas to meet this roval
lady. Accounts differ regarding the
actual spot where the proposal took
place. Some say the car proposed
during an evening party: others that
he did so in the gardens round the
palace whilst ont for a walk with the
princess. The latter account. how.
