FOR THE FAMINE FUND.

The Utah fund for the relief Of famine
Sufferers in Norrland and Finland Is
growing at satisfactory rate, as re-
ported by Mr. A. W. Carlson, who re-
celves the contributions. Tomorrow an
entertainment win be given In the
Theater by University students, for the
benefit OF the fund. and we hope the
generous public of Salt Lake win fill
the theater both at the matinee and
evening.
According TO the reports urgent calls
FOR speedy relief are reaching the CEN
trail committee. Terrific snowstorms
and 4O-below-zero weather have added
more horror to the already pitiful con-
ditlon Of the famine-stricken population
Of the north, especially in the more re-
mote regions fringing the arctic circle.
Unless relief arrives In greater album
dance and with greater regularity 1t Is
feared that terrible epidemic viii

The reports say that already the over
crowded unsanltary huts are full OF
shivering, starving babies and children
who cannot much longer endure the
strain. Medical treatment and medi-
cine are unknown IN the famine district
Everywhere one encounters deformity
and disease, Paralysis and spinal COM
plant are common, Congenital blind
ness consequent on the hardships at
tendant on motherhood in the arctic
climate is frequently met with.
Such are the reports Of the conditions
especially in the most northern parts Of
the famine district. Generous responses
to the appeals for aid have come from
this country, from Russia, and some
other countries. But with all this, more
Is needed before the winter Is over

 AWARDED To Import Reindeer
 From Siberia. THE COMING SEASON
The Northwestern Commercial Company Will Buy and
 Deliver the Deer.

Seattle, Feb. 4.-One thousand ad- ditional Siberian reindeer are to be transported to Alaska the coming sum mer. Such d contract has been award ed by the government to the North- western Commercial company of Nome.
 The negotiations were concluded in the nal ional capital d few days ago be- tween Col. w. T. Perkins and George T. Williams, representing the company. and the government. Col. Perkins who is auditor of the company, and Mr.. Williams, it's vice president. returned from the East yesterday morning.
 The contract company will not only transport the reindeer. but will supply them. Several hundred of the number are now wintering at the Northeast Si- beria company's station, Vladimir, East Cape and St. Nicholas. They are own ed by the Siberian concern to which the Northwestern Commercial company is closely allied. The rest vii be rounded up from the Siberian wilds during the spring and summer and put aboard the transport vessels.
 The reindeer are to be landed at such government stations on the Boring sea coast of Alaska and the islands as the United States may direct. By far the larger number will go to the Teller station. All told there are now in A las ka about 10000 head of reindeer. Last years increase amounted to 1900 or 1900.
 Col. Perkins says the chief aim of the government in propagating reindeer in Alaska is to aid the nativeS-to supply them with meat and to facilitate trans portation. Save in cases of dire neceS. sity the miners are not permitted to use the animals for food purposes
 Last year several hundred head of Si. berian deer were taken across to the Teller and island stations by the Unit ed States revenue cutter Bear.
 Col. Perk ins visited Washington city mainly for the purpose of urging the 1 treasury department to make Nome a support of entry, which was done sev- eral days ago.

FATE OF THE ESKIMO

Friends Mission, Kotzebue, March l9.-Thank you for papers just re- ceived. In THE NUGGET recently noticed that the statement is made that the Shunnak river, where the supposed strike has been made is 450 miles up the Kowak. The record of government surveys that we have here in the mis- sion gives it's distance as being 23l miles from the mission to the mouth of the river.
 don't think myself that any reason exists for stampede in that direction as yet. Titles to claims will be some what unsettled. It is reported here that some one claiming to be mining recorder for Kowak was doing q land office business in recording but no claims in that region have been recorded in the office of Mir.

REINDEER
For Carrying Mail to
 and From Katmai.

J. T. Linseth, the well known rein deer man is figuring on the possibility of securing an experimental contract from the postot1ice department, to carry mail between St. Michael and Katmai next winter. In the event of securing the contract Mr. Lindseth would use reindeer. He knows all about those animals and what they can do and he is confident that mail can be delivered at St. Michael from Katmai in 20 days or less. Of course he would establish stations at convenient distances. As the government has the reindeer in this section and will import 1000 more this season, it would seem that the postotfice department could do no bet ter than give the deer and the route a practical test.
 In the winter of l90l-02 Mr. Lindseth had the mail contract between Teller and kotzebue. The service was per- formed with reindeer, the trip. $50 miles, being made in eight days.
