BOHEMIAN GIRL
 PROVED 4 WINNER

Saturday evening Eagle Hall was filled to it's seating capacity by Nomeites anxious to see what the local talent could do In the way of produc- ing a real grand opera. and no doubt many believed the affair would devel- op into more or less of a farce. But not so. IL was the genuine affair. the Bohemian Girl. was rendered from start to finish in a very pleasing manner much 10 the surprise of all. In fact we doubt If the opera was ever performed by amateurs with greater skill than exhibited by the local tal- ent last Saturday evening.
 Grand operas are supposed to be rendered by two or three stars, and We had them Saturday evening. Mrs. Bornholdt was a start of the first magnitude in her acting and singing, and the support given her by Dan Jones, Frank Kiesele.

FIRE IN GOOSE HEATING
 PLANT BUILDING

The fire department are so used to making dashes to the corner of Lanes way and Front street. to extinguish fires in the heating plant building of the Wild Goose Mining and Trading Company's building. they do not re- celve a telephone alarm. but what they think of it is that place on fire again.
 Ninety pine per cent of the fires in Nome during the past two months have been in this particular building, and the property owners in that vi- cinity can congratulate themselves Nome has an efficient fire department otherwise that portion of the city would have been burned down long before this.
