A QUEER
 REWARD Received By Chief Clerk
 Kimball, TRANs.ALAsKA co.
DispIeaSed With kiniball, Who N--4 Is Removed to Another
 Division

As told in the last issue of iHIiE NUGGET, F. C. Kimball, for the past three years stationed at St. Michael as chief clerk of the mail service faas-this section Of Alaska. has been transferred
 to the sixth division, with headquarters in bk ago.
 The removal of Mir. Kimb2ll to Chicago is not, as might be expected promotion for. meritorious services. in view of the excellent record he has made in Alaska and the complete satis- faction that he has given the people.
 Mir. Kimball' successor is c. J. BQSle who will also have his headquarters ut St Micl ael. He is from San Fran cisco, and visited Alaska last year, go- ing, up the Yukon as postal agent OF enc of the river steamers.
 Mr. kimbal las been an indefati4a- ble official. It illbe remembered t&at last winter he succeeded in bringin@..i the very much belated mail from Lliain- ma bay. And cause be did so, may bc found the reason for his ,remOya' rom g section where his services are needed by reason 0. his i-.t.oroush acquaintance with the.country ancf the 
 Last winter Mr Kimhsll, after comiGc to Nome, returned to St. Michael, and on March 6, with d dog team, started out to look for the.4nissing -,nsil.f Ke found it .stalled" on the Kuskokwjm, and caused it to be forwarded, tp Sita destination after himself making a-tri2 of nearly 500 miles For this great ser vice and for the enterprise and courage that he exhibited, he is removed >to another division.
 Nr. KlnbaIl cainsover on the ORW on Thursday en route to San FranciSce and Chicago. He was reticent about talking concerning the matter, |. but some facts concerning the department's action have been nevertheless brought to light
 The .Ilianna coptIact was let to the Trans Alaska Co.,, which agreed to transport the mail from Hanna bax.to Nome in F days. receiving as conpen- sation a a5out 800 day. ;,They attempt ed to use horses and as everyone knows they failed miserably and utterly. wbile they were auaChematized by every resi- dent of this section. It would seem, from recent derelopment. that the Trans Alaska people resented the. fact that MT. kimtall found the nail and brought it ip Having in some way, influence with the department their wrath seems to nave been wrecked upon Mr. kir1nll, and the department, which has been the dupe of nearly every Alaskan mail contractor for years, aided and abetted this j.aot air" con cern, and removed an efficient and honest official.
 On his return from his KuskokWim trip, Mr. Kimball received a written endorsement signed by 100 rcsidentS Ot St. Michael and that section, thanking him for the energy displayed, and con- mending his action The trip was made at great personal inconvenience to MT. Kimball, aud he was also compelled to advance some fG00 out of his own pOcke: tothe special mail carriers who brought the mail to Nome.
