 note with interest your recent edi- tOrial re. the furnishing of nets, etc. to the EskimOs. The |. $. government certainly owes something to this people and do little enough for them. Last fall the Friends mission furnished a sufficient supply of net twine to natives about here and the result has been that they have caught d sufficient supply Of food fish to keep them this winter. So far not single instance of hunger among navives has existed here that am aware of.
 One thing the government can do and that is the prohibition of canneries north of Berlng strait, because of the short season and the difficulty and ex pense of transportation. 1 don't be lieve there is to be much financial gair to any one in establishing fish canner ies this side of Boring strait, and i, would undoubtedly result in the exter imitation of the native race: 1900 native. on rivers back of here depend upon fist as theire principal article of food. anG they haven't a fish too many. Little use in the government spending thOus ands of dollars in the introduction O. reindeer for the natives benefit, if they are to starve to death for lack of fist before the reindeer have increased enough to help them.
 Reindeer do very we'll here. although we have had temperature of 54 below and at present snow lies to depth o more than four feet on the level, thes, little animals thrive and increase DANA THOMAS.

FROM THE
 |MMACHUK Good Prospects Found
 Last Winter. TEAWE RS NEEDED In Order to Prospect the Gronnd Thoroughly. --Stampeding
 is Discouraged.
TNAWE as NEEDED

Dr. Buck returned Wednesday after noon from Old Glory creek and 1nma- chuk, whither he went three weeks ago with supplies for his mining claims. Dr. Buck states that on the Dashley group of claims, DeBuhr, Renard and West have done some thorough pros pecting, the lowest of the group of four claims, having received the most at tention. The best pan found was worth $9.75. A wide paystreak has been To- cated and although no pretensions of taking out a dump were made, still the boys will probably clean up S70o0 this spring. The paystreak is at least 50 feet wide. MT DeBuhr advises anyone who contemplates prospecting Inma- chuk claims to take a thawer, for wood is scarce and prospecting can only be done by thawing the ground by steam. There is not enough fall on the river to do ground-sluicing.
 Fred Ruhl, at the mouth of Pinnell, has struck pay. He has steam thaw. CT at work. Fox Bros. x Shipsby are prospecting about midway between Ruhl's claim and the Dashley group, but as yet they have not located inc paystreak. On Nelson gulch, a tribu- tary of Old Glory, Andrew Nelson has been prospecting all winter both on tho left limit of Nelson and the left limit benches of Old Glory. He has found a strata carrying four or five feet of pay dirt, running from 30 cents to 60 cents on bedrock.
 THE NUGGET is in reciept of a letter from Dr. G. NJ. Morris, of Nelson gulch, Old Glory creek, dated April l7 from s.1shich the following extracts are made: "& "We are getting along nicely here and are mainly employed getting ready for the spring. We have spent the winter, which has been an extremely hard one, in prospecting mostly and are quite satisfied with the results so far. There has not been much work done in this section, we, the Dashleys and the Fox Bros. and Fred Ruhl being the only workers. The Dashleys you <now about, except that the last pan they took in their drift was $9.75, $S. 70 of which was one nugget of solid gold, no quartz.
 ''There are quite number of tents down the Inmachuk, but nothing much is being done. suppose there will be quite rush to Deering in tho spring,

OCCURS ON CENTRAL PIKE STREET
AT LATE HOUR LAST NIGHT.
Four Persons Frightened by Appearance
of Copper Make Frantic Run
to Cover.

The peace and quietitude of Pike street
in the neiehborhoOd Of the Manhattan
restaurant was greatly disturbed last
evening along about half an hour after
the play was over at the opera house.
An unusually squauy affair occurred on
the sidewalk right in front of the res.
taurant, and for while it looked as if
an ambulance call would have to be sent
in to one of the city hospitals. Two well
known young gentlemen got mixed up
with two gentleman of African descent,
and for a short space Of time things were
living around in the air like unto small
boiler explosion. Whether the two white
gentlemen were trying to mop up the
sidewalk with the two eolOred fellows, or
the two colored fellows we're trying to
wipc up the walk with the two white
gentlemen this dcponent aycth not. 1t
would be hard to tell. Things were get
ting pretty interesting until two of the
contestants happened TO look up Pike
street towards Pat slancy's saloon and
saw policeman coming. Then there
was sudden dispersement. Within the
space Of two short seconds, the sidewalk
was as vacant as the smiling face of
Fairmont young lady. BY the time
the policeman had reached the spot, the
participants in the afray were within
a miles distance of the spot.
