Ever since his residence here he has shown himself fully m sym pathy with the needs and wants of the territory and has not hesitated in usin. his best endeavors for any measure beneficial to the country and it is not thought an appeal will at this time be made to him in vain. He will be wired protest of the most vigorous charac- ter which will doubt less be followed up by a monster petition begging that in justice to q new territory that has yielded in revenue to the federal gov ernment the riches of Pandora, this monstrous blight, this worse than pestilence, be not allowed to longer exist

WILL TAKE OFFICE
 ON APRIL 24
New Council and School Board Will Assume Their Duties on That
 Date-A Special r1eeting.

The board of election rendered their official report at the regular meeting of the city council on Monday evening. The report showed that total of 1850 ballot, had teen cast, out of which 2l were spoiled and thrown out. leaving 1929 ballots counted.
 The report also stated that where there were more than seven marks for councilman and only three for school board. or vice versa, they had counted the portion that was correctly marked and thrown the incorrect portion out.
 A resolution, introduced by Council man Valentine, ratifying the report of the election board was adopted, declar- ing Tierney, Valentine, Geiger, Good rich, Archer, Jourden and Stevens elected to seats in the next council and Call, Sawyer and Butler elected school directors. The clerk was in- structed to issue certificates of election to the same.
 According to ordinance, which pro- vides that ten days after the report of the election board the newly elected councilmen shall take the oath of office, a special meeting was called for Thurs day, April 24. The compensation of the election board and three special patrolmen was fixed at $50 each, they having served 24 hours.
 The ire chief reported that the dam- age to the Claflin building, on account of Sundays fire, aggregated $500.
 Nome's finances are rather slim. As shown by the treasurer's report, only $6S.79 is left in the school fund, and Sl5. 75 in the special street fund. The attorney fund boasts the largest amount, having reached the $l22.9O mark.

been terra incognita,' namely. the upper Kuskok vim, Mulchatni and Lake Clark watershed.
 "Various misleading reports. from one extreme to the other, have from time to time come out in regard to that country, but the facts are that several who were in there last year and went through to Nome have returned from Seattle and are in the country.
 ''I may name J. R. Evans, Elliott and two others. who are returning into that country with l4 dogs via Toyoo- nok, Sushitna station, Yeutna river and East Fork Kuskokwim. That is a feasible way as long as the rivers are open, but with base of supplies in the Iliamna lake country far easier way is from there.
 "As have said before, I deprecate booms and rushes, for the results are always the same but the country that is now being made accessible offers many attractions for men of experience and moderate means, the same as the upper inlet country does for intelligent capital and investment.
 But in neither place should weak brothers or shell game men on any scale come, for nothing but disappoint- ment will await them.
 'ln the near future I hope to give you an article on the oil interests of this section, which lie just above and below Iliamna bay, but to do that half justice would require volume in itself. and no part of the real wealth of Alaska has yet been gotten at"

San Francisco, Jan. 24.-The Yo- semitelclub decided tonight to indef- nitely postpone the proposed Jefrics- Sharkey fight.
 The chief reason given is the un- satisfactory ending of the recent SharkeyMaher fight at Philadelphia. The fight was tame affair and the referee stopped it in the second round, the audience being disgusted at the poor exhibition.

REVIVAL IN SCHOOL.
Pupils Begin to Pray and Sing
and Work Closed.


Selma, Ind, March ia revival has
been in progress at the Methodist Epis-
copal church for some time and in the
list of new conversions there We're sew
eral of the high school pupils. While
the school was getting down to the
opening work today the newly con-
verified students began praying and
singing. The teachers endeavored to
restore quiet but failed.
The pupils from the various rooms in
the building began congregating and,
books and lessons We're quickly put
aside. Then a mourners bench was
constructed and a student hastily dis
patched for a minister. Three min
listers responded. with several church
workers A meeting was soon in prog
ress and before the school was dis
missed fifteen students had become con-
Verted and were shouting like mad.
The church people consider it a great
triumph. The school will stay closed
until the pupils become calmer.
