DOLLS 5000 YEARS AGO.

There Is doll in the British Mu- scum that is more than 5000 years old. When some archaeologiSts were exploring an ancient Egyptian royal tomb they came upon sarcophagus containing the mummy of a little princcsss seven years old. She was dressed and inferred in manner be- fitting her rank. and in her arms was found a little wooden doll.
 The inscription gave the name, rank and aEe of the little girl and the date of her death. but 1t said nothing about the quaint little wood on Egyptian doll This. however told it's own story It was so tignt'y claspcd in the arms of the mummy that 1t was evident that the child had died with her beloved doll in her arms.
 The doll occupies a place in a glass case in the museum. and there a great many English children go to gaze upon it.

At Golovin. Solo mon. Council. Teller, shelton, in fact all inland towns and camps, where 1t IS impossible to get the letters into the puIser's mail. the people are up against the real thing Tor only one mail has departed. and at least two steamers have left for the states within the past week. It seems a shame when we realize all this and yet the mail has been allowed tc re- main in the postofiice and there ap- pears but a small chance of having the same dispatched for a week to come.
 The Nugget hates to assume the role of a winner. but when such great and glaring wrong confronts us. is Haunted in our very faces, and we are given to understand the same is to be perpetuated it is high time to kick. and keep kicking until the wrong has been righted. We will be persistent in trying 10 have our pres ent mail system changed. for it is living disgrace 10 the community and reflects upon every person here in this part of Alaska. It leads one to believe that those having the arranG- ing of the malls in charge labor under the impression that the citizens on Seward peninsula are lot of yum skulls capable of putting up with most any kind of abuse. and they are trying to test the limit. Persistence is the keynote-survival is the prop- lem, and We will adm1 mistakes are written in most every record. but why keep 1t up?
 We know not where the blame should be placed. but We do know that Nome today is receiving the worst mail service. for the summer season in the history of the camp We also realize that instead of get ting better it Is growing worse from year 10 year. and of late has become so rotten something should be done.

OUR SUMMER MAIL.

Ii there is any truth 10 the state ment-knoWledgc is gained chiefly through the process of elimination why Is II the elimination of our malls from certain steamers during the past season or two brought no ray of light to those having the same in charge?
 our summer schedule for mails is without question of doubt. the worst Incle Sam pretends To give to any portion of the United States We be- Ieye the Indians on the reservations receive better treatment by far than that awarded us in the mail line The amount of abuse heaped upon the people of Seward peninsula leads one 10 believe the postal officials are en- deavoring to test the limit and as- certain how much the people will put up with before registering a kick worth taking notice of.
 Letters and other mailing matter are received in the local postoffice under what We may call false pre-. tense. for people depositing letters up there do so with the understanding they will be dispatched upon the first boats leaving for the outside. Such proves 10 be entirely wrong. for steamers may come and steam CTS may go. but the mail? why that remains behind to prove there is something rotten in Denmark.
 We do not know the official upon whom to place the blame of our pres ent system of handling the mails from the local postoffice. but We be- lieye the people should expeience 8 changes in the method of dispstching their mail. or take mp the matter ano in some maner or form see to 1t that no steamer departs form Nome. pro- vided 1t is an American bottom. but due the people of Seward peninsula for the Lord knows vessels are few and far between on the Boring ses run. compared to the number plyini their trade in these waters q fey seasons ago.

Absolutely" the superintendent Of
the largest penal institution in
acreage in the United States. said.
Several months ago we missed one
of the nose desperate convicts, one
of the best TRUSTEES and also our best
bloodhound. for which the trusty had
shown fondness. Three days almost
had elapsed and We had come to the
conclusion that the convict and the
trusty had run away and that the
trusty had stolen our best hound.
Toward the close Of the third day
We noticed two men and a dog APP
preaching by way of the drawbridge
over the Teche. When they got near
enough We recognized in them those
for whom We had been searching so
diligently. II developed that the
trusty had discovered the escape of
the convict at night. Without wait
ing to tell us anything about it, he
got the best hound from the stockade
and went in pursuit It was long
and heart-breaking chase, but finally
he overlook the fugitive, handcuffed
him and brought him back to Hope
Farm. 1t seems to me that speaks
well for the fidelity of the trusty."
