 tha Tufts.
Were Imprisoned On Siberian Coast for About Two Months, but Finally Reached the Out side in Safety.

It has been learned at the customs house that the gasoline schooner Ad miral which cleared this port last fall for Siberia, and which was sup posed to be lost, arrived at Victoria, B e., early in March last. After leaving Nome the Admiral proceeded up the coast to a point where a load of whisky had been cached. Here the whisky and Captain Nelson, a man who was out on bail on a charge of selling intoxicating liquors to the natives, were picked up and a start was made for the Siberian coast.
 When reaching a point near East Cape the vessel was caught in the ice, and after being imprisoned for nearly two months and enduring much privation, the captain and crew managed to extricate the vessel from it's precarious position, and reached Victoria at the time above stated.
 The schooner Martha Tufts. well known in the Nome trade was also caught in the ice last fall and reach ed Seattle early last February.
 If the Admiral returns to Norle this fall she will be seized by the customs authorities for violating the maritime laws.

Our Tin Mines Carry Off
 All Prizes.
Portland Fair Judges Recognize Value of Both Placer and Ore Tin On Seward PeninSuIa--J. D. Thagard Gets First Medal.

The first one of the many medals that were awarded to Nome residents for exhibits sent from the Seward peninsula to the Lewis and Clark exposition was received in Nome on Saturday last by J. D. Thagard, who as president of the Seward Tin Min ing Company, was awarded the first prize and gold medal for tin ores. The sample, which weighed nearly 400 pounds, was taken from the com pany's claims at the Cape Prince of Wales tin fields. The ores were judged by a corps of experts com posed of the government mining in spector of the different states and Dr. Day, the eminent geologist, who was sent to Portland by the govern ment to make tests of the black sands of the Columbia river.
 In the connection it is interesting and gratifying to note that all of the prizes for both ledge tin ores and placer tin concentrates were awarded to the mine owners in the Seward peninsula.
