"The negro has no doubt been
mistreated in many ways; posi-
bly he has been lynched occasion
ally for an Offensc he did not com
nit; he has been deprived Of his
political rights now-and then, per
haps; his pretended friends have
forced the responsibilities Of cit
izenship upon him before he was
able TO wear them; spellbinders
have caused him 10 conjure with
the foolish dream Of equality, and
all that kind Of thing" said Sen
ator Money, OF Mississippi, the
other day TO a Washington Star
reporter, ~but these grievances
are small, indeed; they are mere
trashy nothings when compared
TO others to which / desire TO ad-
dress myself for the moment.
"Ofeourse, Icannot say how the
negroes feel about the things ]

ANTIQUITIES OF ASIA MINOR


Journeys Made Last Year.
Col. Yanke, q retired officer. has
just read 9 lecture before the mem-
bcrs Of the Berlin Geographical %
city on the results Of q journey last
year through Asia Minor, undertaken
for the purposos Of historical and
geographical Investigation, says the
London Standard. The starting point
Of the jouTney was AleKandreita, and
the route followed vas first to Smyr-
ma, then by ship to Rhodes, Messins,
and Adana, on the Cilician coast. An
excursion TO Pompeiopolis was made,
as vel as one from Alexandretta 10
Bailan and the Bailan Pass. The lat
ter, lying ESQ meters above the level
Of the sea, afforded a beautiful view
Of the plain Of Antioch and the Kara
su valley. On returning to the battle
field Of Issus, where Alexander the
Great defeated Darius, surveys were
were made, which excited much Gu
riOsity among the population.
Two other pssses, mentioned BY
StrabO and Xenophon, were also yis-
ited, one forming a dehle along the
coast. The battlefield Of Issus is
crossed BY two rivers, and the com
mon opinion was that the river which
proved disastrous to Darius was the
most noteworthy one. The lecturer
regarded this assumption as errone-
Gus, as the river IN question had high
steep banks. The southern river
must, therefore, have been the one
which Darius had in bis rear. Misled
BY his scouts as 70 the movements Of
the MseedOnisn army, be committed
the same mistake which was so fatal
TO him at Granieus, drawing up his
troops on too limited a ground in
front Of the river. The lecturer con-
sidered that the estimate Of 6OO, 600
men as the strength Of the Persian
army was excessive, since SO large a
body Of troops could never have had
room on the battlefield. Thenumbel
was probably only 6O,OOo Alexan,
der, who had recovered from his H.
ness caused by bathing in the CydnuI
more rapidly than his opponent *.
peeted, surprised the PeTsisns il
their unfsyOTsble position and 6e-
feaied them.
From Issus the lecturer continued

GOLD ON THE
 UPPER ANv|K
Capt. Edwin Engelstad Returns From a Prospecting Trip:
 in That Section.

Capt. Edwin Engelstad is m Nome from the headwaters of the Anvik, where he spent the past season pros pecting. Nothing has been found in that section to warrant stampede. Gold was first found on the Anvik as early as 1889 by stampeders en route to Fortymile, and mining district was organized there long before gold had been discovered in Council district. Besides placer gold there are excellent indications of coal, iron and quartz o1 various kinds. As for placer ground, it is largely hydraulic proposition.
 From Unalaklik to the headwaters oi the Anvik is about 50 miles in a direct line. The country is very rugged, being cut by many rivers and creeks.
The Nome nugget., 1903-10-14

Stevens that God loveth a cheerful liar" Stevens still insisted that Hill had made the statement quoted above, and that he, Stevens, was speaking the truth.
 The contract for the city printing was let to the Nome News at B cents a line, the bid from the Gold Digger be- ing at the same rate. THE NUGGET did not bid.
 On account of Chief of Police Wal lingford being i'll, Policeman Sackett was appointed temporary chief, and another man was placed on the force during the chiefs illness.
 The city clerk reported that he had collected taxes for the week ending Oct. F. $6,586.20. He stated he had paid for the fire apparatus and the freight on same, the bill amounting to S1,Ol6.95.
 It was agreed to employ Mir. P. J. Coston to protect Nome's interests and further the application for a patent, and to issue cash warrant for the sum of $75O.
 The finance committee recommended that the city treasurer be authorized to make warrant call for s3,sOO, and that the city clerk be instructed to in- form the treasurer of the same. Laid on the table for another week.
 Hoxsie thought that good many of those werrants that would be paid with the S3,S0O were held by people who were going outside, and he suggested that the council should hold on to the warrants till after boats had departed, so as to keep the money in Nome this winter.
 Hill supported Hoxsie's motion, and moved that the recommendation be laid on the table for another week.
