 During the past three years there has been shipped from Nome about three tons of Scheelite, tho principal consignments having been made by the Pioneer Mining Company. Taken in conjunction with it's gold content it yielded about $400 per ton. There is q large amount of the mineral scattered through the gravel on the creeks trih- utary to Snake river above Glacier creek, and small amounts of it have been found on Dry creek and on the beach lines
 Several prospeetors have attempted 10 locate the vein from which the pieces found have been shed but so far their efforts Have been unsuccess- ful.

A letter received by Peter Esch, the .Well-knoWn assayer, from Colonel F. $. Harrison, indicates that the task of finding a market for Nome minerals is not always as easy as it would appear on the surface Last Fall Mir. Esch sent out about half ton of calcium tungstate, more generally known as Scheelitc, after it's discoverer, ard used m adding hardness to steel
 Colonel Harrison undertook to tiad a market for the mineral, but after having it assaYed, and finding a large gold content, he was able to to pla :e it only through an agent, who wanted $50 for handling the metal. Apart from the gold value. the rock, which assayed about 90 per cent tungstic acid, had q value of only $197,5O per ton.
 The letter also states that an elec- tI.ical smelter is about to be opened up on the Sound. and that when this is completed there will be less trouble about treating many of the new ores

CHARITY DAY
 APRIL 2I

In order to have some funds at hand in case they should be needed, the Nome Benevolent Association, which was organized about a week ago, has arranged to give a charity ball on April 21. The dance will be given at the Eagle Hall and, although the ar engagements have not yet been com pleted, 1t is probable that the services of the Nome Brass Band will be sc- cured for the occasion.
 The committee in charge of the af- arranged to make April 23 Charity Day" and the whole day will be given ur, more or less. to the work in hand. The F'raternal Order of Eagles has kindly donated the use of the hall for rhe dance, and several leading cu- zcns are helping out the movement
 The funds raised by the dance will be used in relieving the sick and in digent and a system has been evolved under which nobody except one or two officers of the organization will have any Knowledge as to the names of the pel sons to whom relief is afforded.
 Inquiries made by members of the organization have disclosed the fact that during the winter, now happily al- most past, there have been one or two cases where d little assistance would have been appreciated.
