MAD WAC"
 HAS A JOKE
lie Thought to Aid Local GrOcerS in DiSpOSing of "COrn on
 the Cob"

The other day some mad wag. as Shakespeare says. rang up on the tele- phone several of tbe grocery stores about town and ordered each of them to send case of canned corn to Dr. (. A. 5an.hart'o residence. Presently cases of corn began 10 arrive, and Mrs.
 }anghart began 10 speculate. One case of corn did not phase her. but when delivery wagon after delivery wagon continued 10 dump corn on the cob" at her door it was too much. The doctor was called up al his office, and he denied strenuously y that he had Se- cured corner on corn on the cob. Then it developed that the good-na- tured dentist had been made the vic tim of practical joke.
 For the past week or ten days there has been d sort of war on between local grocers over the price of corn on the cob The price has been cut and cut. d. readers of FHE NUGGET know, until can wa, offered as q chromo with every liVe-dollar purchase. And still the war goes on.

THE CARE OF THE ESKIMO

selfrespect is raised, and the first step towards usefulness is made.
 Thirdly. Establish drying houses for fish. By so doing the natives can save all the fish they catch and probably be able to supply the local demand for dried fish At present they must dry their fish in the open, and if it rains during that period, as it did last summer, the fish are lost and their food supply is limited for the ensuing win ter Dried fish being their principal stock m trade, they have nothing to trade for flour, tea, etc, and must exist as best they may. The cree ton of properly constructed drying houses would remedy that evil, and would also, by increasing the supply, reduce the cost of dog feed along the coast, making it possible for mu,her to make trip without costing him fortune for dog feed. FOurthy. Erect q sawml upon Unaaklk river, where there is plenty of growing spruce Send a competent man here to teach the natives how to run it, also a shipwrght to teach them how to construct small schooners, and there is a great stride in the solving of the Eskimo problem There are a good many natural mechanics among them, as their schooners, often in Nome bear witness to. Guide their natural mechanical intelligence and the result would be d surprise to those who know the Eskimo from the streets of Nome
 The reindeer were supposed when brought here to be a solution of the question. Everyone knows now that if not a failure it is not by any means a success. The reindeer certainly in creasing in numbers, but who are benefited there by: Certainly not the Eskimo. As whole, the LappS are paid by the government fed by the government and are in possession of a good many deer Was this the intention of the government when it made special law to admit the Lapps :? Not if 1 understand it right, The Lapps were to teach the Eskimo how to take of the deer. Are they doing it ? In few cases yes but for the Eskimo as whole there s screw loose somewhere. Where is it:
 While not in accord with the policy pursued | by the missions in their handling of the Eskimo and the reindeer, must certainly commend the good work done by the mission here under the active and intelligent help of MT. Edwin Engel stadt Nowhere along the coast are the natives as prosperous or intelligent. The homes of the natives educated by the mission marve> of cleanliness the department and morals of the women are equal to and compare favorably with other small communities, and their honesty is un- questioned They are also industrious, frugal and temperate. The mission has done noble work but with the advent of the white people something more is needed. The mission has done it's work, but stronger and more capable hand is needed to direct the future of the Eskimo.
 The government is, through the mission, build ing school here capable of comfortably accom- modating about hundred pupils. The teachers are partly natives and partly half breeds, super vised by the mission. The instruction of the na tives is naturally rudimentary but that is not really material so long as the groundwork of use fitness is laid. SIEX

THE NUGGET has received large number of names of the pioneers of 1898 and 1899, in answer to it's request. It is desired that the list be made as con- plete as possible. The name of every man, woman and child who came to this section of Alaska during the above years is wanted. The list of names will be published in the near future.
 THE NUGGET also wishes to receive the names of all children born of white parents since 1898. Do not fail to send in the names of the young Alaskans. The list will soon be closed.

I hear that recently an exhibition
was given of the practical working OF
a new device called The ACQUISITION"
at which were present several we'll

its were tried upon a young lady who
had been deaf and dumb from birth
For the first time in her life she was
enabled to hear the human voice;
then musical chords seemed to charm
her. At first she appeared TO be
frightened, but gradually evinced de-
light, and it is represented as being
particularly touching to have watched
the emotions produced by her new
found sense
Mr.. Wilder was requested to tel her
a story, which he did, selecting the
first that came TO his memory. She
listened attentively. and at its con-
clusion a faint smile overspread her
features, showing her appreciation.
Then the Senator essayed the same
experiment At first she exhibited
the greatest interest, but suddenly
pushing the instrument aside she burst
into a food Of tears. When tenderly
asked the cause of her emotion, she
seized a pad and pencil and anxiously
inquired:
