CUTTING NEW TRAIL
 YUKON ID DISKAKE7

Dave Lewis is reported cutting a new trail from lis place on the Yukon to Diskalet, hoping ill this manner to provide shorter route to the Iditarod.
 This work is now ill progress, including the building of two road houses which are in course of con- struction OH the new line. "Muk lux" Joe has one of these places. but when last heard from he was shy on grub, wherefore 1t cannot be stated that there is actual ac- commodation ready oil that route
 It will probably be travelled to a considerable extent this winter as it furnishes the shortest route to Fairbanks. and ill addition there is much of the cargo of the Minnea- polls which they can doubtless af- ford to bring here.

MOORE GREEK HAS
 LONG LINE 0F II

According to statement made by Mir. Myers, who arrived in town last Thursday, Moore creek at the head of the Tokatna is now showing pay for about two miles. Prospecting is held up just now as the men turned their attention to the building of winter quar- ters, but the work that was done there last fall is convincing to the extent that they believe they are on live one. Myers is familiar with the creek, having been there with the first. He says it looks very good to him.

ORIGIN OF THIS FIRE
 IS ONE DEEP MYSTERY

After having smouldered in tue wall of the building for space that must have been two hours, a fire was discovered ill Albert Wile'e \ tailor shop Thursday morning, Mrs. Thomas Thurston being the heroine of the occasion.
 Quickly summoning MT. Bag gerly of the Independent meat mar ket next door, Mrs. Thurston tore eff the door casing and applied all the liquid in the shop right where it did the maximum ot good. Bag gcrly also worked with a will for he had visions of roast beef and broiled beefateaks, and he was heard to fervently exclaim that Mrs. Thur stoD had saved all the meat in town.
 The origin of the fire is a mys, tery. The door where 1t occurr,d d is several feet away from the stove, and it had apparently started on the inside of a tight wall. The only possible explanation is that spark from match flew inside the lining in some manner, and then smould cred quietly, between the time that Vile left the place at eight o'clock and Mrs. Thurs,on's arrival there at ten.
 This is another narrow escape as was the fire discovered ill the M & NJ. bank building two weeks ago, when the heat of the furnace ignited the floor, and only goes to show that the utmost vigilance must be employed.

WENT WITHOUT GRUB
 FOR SOME DAYS

The tale of the mush from the Str Minneapolis, now laying supinely at Lewis on the Yukon, to Iditarod city is one of trial and tribuation. G. F. Mayhood, two Slavonians and Finn arrived Tuesday night, but they were seven days between the Yukon and Ophir. Three days their only susten- ance was of the stuff that dreams are made of, and when they dropped in at the Boxcar roadhouse. eight miles be- low Ophir, they ate up everything in sight.
 Mayhood is the man that ran the poolroom in Fairbanks next the Cali fornia saloon on Front street. He now brought along a poolroom outfit in winter quarters with the Minneapolis, He intends to look over the country thoroughly this winter, since he be- lieyes it impracticable to attempt nov ing his outfit during the winter.

TEACHING YOUNG

Undismayed by the fact tha, Harvard and Vasser are trying to get a monopoly on the learning game for ali time, the little ones ot Iditarod have entered hopefully into the race for knowledge al are already deep in the my steries of A B C, Euclid and the Vedas.
 Mrs. Brooks, a capable precep tress of Nome, has taken tue matter ill hand and for some weeks has been conducting school near the corner of Second and Otter, where six children have been in regular attendance. for, as one of them says, it's more fun than staying home.

DOG MARKET WILL
 BE HELPED SOME

According to the reports brought in by late travellers from the Yukon there will soon be fresh supply of dogs in the Iditarod to relieve tue present shortage. Dave Lewis, the roadhouse man who has his place at the Yukon end of the Lewis cut off, is coming with 5 dog. and should be here at any time. An other man, whose n.lme is not known but who lives on the Yukon below Lewis IS reported to be on his way with 75 canines that will give the same result as gasoline if you hitch them up.
 Many of these dogs belong to people i'll the country and were left on the Yukon to be fed during the summer aud fall. They will come in very handy here, as good dogs are practically out of the market and have commanded good, stiff prices.
 It appears that the Iditarod and the Ruskokwim will be dog -1nush- ing countries with the result that some fine teams should be evolved here before tue winter is gone. If such should prove the case, it might be possible to challenge Nome's long held superiority in the matter of dog teams, in other words we might rib up big dog race for the spring.

The travellers are re- ported to have some provisions with them, but it is probable that they will come in over the trail leaving the goods behind them.

The fire dance at Flat city last Saturday night had considerable class. It was a social affair de luxe, and everybody not tied down was there.
 The event was pulled off at the Stanley house, and prohting by the good reports of the first dance held there, many people from far and wide took it in, including bunch of terpsichorean enthusiasts from this city.
 Their intention was to assist the town of Flat to purchase buckets and things for her fire department aud they realized enough to make it several barrels.
