DEXTER GREEK A Prominent Citizen De.
 parts Abruptly. THE SEASON CLOSED The Most Prosperous One That Dexter Creek Has Ever Seen
 ....Winter Work.
THE SEASON CLOSED

Dexter Creek, Oct. This week the quiet atmosphere of the creek was dis turbed by the intelligence that K. E.. Forth, one of our respected citizens, had taken French" leave, leaving in his wake train of creditors to ruminate on the folly of not having the Marconi system of telegraphy installed on our coast. Almost all of the citizens of Nome have a vacant place in their hearts which can only be filled by the return of the aforesaid Mir. Fortin to our hospitable shores. Not single gun was fired to announce his sudden departure, but such will not be the case if some of his victims overtake him on the outside.
 The summer season has about closed and with it probably the most prosper. ous one that Dexter will ever see. All the claims have received working that made their owners, if not rich, feel pretty comfortable. On Nos. l and ? much work has been done; on 3 and 1 nothing has been accomplished ex- cepting assessment work; but on and 6 the Pioneer Co. are doing an immense amount of work.

Steamship Meteor Loses
 Her Wheel.

Steamship Meteor, bound for Nome from Seattle, lost her rudder early last Monday morning near St. Lawrence island. A jury rudder was fixed up, but shortly afterwards the rudder post fell, breaking the wheel and shaft. The vessel was anchored, and Fred Hartman and three sailors started for Nome. After incredible hardships they reached Hastings creek Thursday. The steamer Eureka was dispatched to aid the disabled Meteor. The Manau- ense also went in search of the steamer, but returned and reported that she was unable to find her. It is possible that the Meteor may have been picked up by the steamer Valencia and taken to Dutch harbor.
