BEACH A BUSY PLACE
The Work in Progress Indicates
a Busy Season to Follow
Spring Breakup.

Since the first streak of lOw-lying
clouds have appeared upon the horizon,
denOting the presence of open water at
no great distance, local shipping inter-
eSts have awakened, and the sound of
the callers hammer has been loud in
the land.
The lighters, schOonerS and other
craft which line the beach. are all
scenes of great activity, and long before
the ice parts company with the beach,
almost every craft capable of carrying
even q small cargo and limited num-
Der of passengers, will be ready for
business.
Besides the boats which have seen
service here before there will be two
fresh launchings this spring. one of
them, the new and powerful tug re-
Gently built by Capt. Whitehouse, and
now receiving her finishing touches on
the beach. She is fitted with two
twenty-five horse power engines, and is
destined TO make quite a notable addi-
ton to the local shipping.
The other new boa. is being calked
while awaiting her machinery, which
will arrive early this season from the
outside. She is being built by Capt.
Andrews at the Steadman avenue shop,
and is beauty, SO far as her lines go.
Carrying capacity has been sacrificed
to speed, apparently. as the lines of the
hull indicate that that was her design
er's object. She will be fitted with
gasoline engines, and will carry about
IA tons of freight. The route for her
first seasons business is not yet known.
The gasoline schooner Augusta G. is
receiving extensive repairs and under
going many alterations, notably as ap-
plies to her passenger accommodations,
which are being greatly increased. She
will ply between Nome, Tishou river,
Teller and other points, including Cape
York. Her owner, Capt. Bernard, has
built a large warehouse at Tishou
river for the accommodation of ship
pers, which will be very acceptable
Improvement, and one much needed,
as last year considerable shortage Oc-
Cured at that point.
Heavy traffic is anticipated this year
with Cape York points, by reason of
the great activity predicted in the tin
mining district.
The steamer Elk has received her
annual overhauling, and has been
moved far enough out on the ice to
avoid the rough usage always conse-
quent upon launching from the beach
through the shallow water.
The gasoline schooner Louise will
soon be ready for launching, her prepa-
rations for going into commission being
nearly complete, She will go on the
SolOmOn-Chinik run.
Besides the few mentioned, host of
other small craft are being prepared
for service, and it is easy to see that
those interested in the coastwise traffic
are anticipating a very busy season.

Col. Sawyer's Address.

Pupils of the Nome public schools
parents, friends and members of the
graduating class:
1t is source of great pleasure to me as
secretary of the Board of Education to
be called upon by your principal to pre-
sent the first diplomas granted by the
Board of Education in Nome.
1t is an occasion that should be look ed
upon by all of us with great pride. 1t
marks the completion of a years school
work of which we can justly be proud.
In this Northland, where the young
mind is deprived of association with cur
rent progress that is conducive to intel
lectual advancement and where the mad
ambition of man to secure the hidden
treasures causes him to become truly
mercenary, it is consolation to us to
know that we are not neglecting our
duties to our poSterity.
By educating our children we are en-
downing them with wealth that no man
can take from them and capital that
cannot be squandered-a wealth that is
sure to bring returns.
Ny young friends, the hour has come
for which you have been eagerly waiting.
can appreciate the keen anxiety YOU
feel to know something of the world into
which you are going. have come from
that busy world to bring you greeting
and a warning. A graduate is not
finished product. The student who
frames his diploma as evidence of COM
pleted work is like the man from Kansas
who nailed the Lord $ Prayer at the foot
of the bed to facilitate his drowsy devo-
tons. Graduation is second birth.
The graduate is dumped into the world
again, somewhat larger, but every whit
as helpless as when he first made his
debut. | commend to you all the ia
miliar maxim of Socrates, that the first
step toward wisdom is confession of ig-
noranCe.
Vain conceit will not long withstand
the searching tests of business. The
world has no use for man perched on a
pedestal. Sooner or later he must climb
down or fall down. He must get his feet
braced against the earth before he will
be recognized as unit of force.

the Anvil Masonic club, Thursday even
ing, Lawrence Goldspring was intro
duced to the members and presented
with gold medal as mark of respect
for saving Miner Bruce when he fell

name of Lawrence Goldspring and the
words: "For Valor" On the back is
engraved "Presented 10y the Anvil Ma

Bruce for Heroism, May Is, 1904"
Mr. Goldspring thanked the mem
bers, and representatives of Mrs. Bruce,
for the tokens, and being of very
modest disposition, said: Il believe it
is time for me to 60, for you will be
giving me the Golden Gate hotel the
first thing know, and will not be able
to take that with me-"

Humane Society.

At the regular monthly meeting of
the humane society last Wednesday
evening in the city hall, some import
ant business was transacted which has
been on the tapis for 4 considerable
part of the time since the organization
of the societv.
The report of the executive commit
tee showed what steps had been taken
looking to the suppression of one no.
table case of abuse, and upon a showing
made by the other members that the
action taken had proven abortive, it
was decided to proceed to prosecution
forthwith, and the necessary evidence
is now in the hands of the committee
appointed for the purpose of placing
the details in the hands OF the attorney.
AT this time it is not thought advis-
able by the executive committee to
give further details of the matter for
publication, but it is certain that the
first case for prosecution by the society
will soon be before the municipal
court. ~.

General Mishtchento reports
that Ping Yang is occupied by Jap

that Corean carts are carrying their

sumption that China is abandoning
her neutrality in favor Of the Jap
