FISHER HAS NEW
 GOAL BILL READY
Special Nugget Service.

WASHINGTON, D. c, Aug. l0.- Walter l.. Fisher. secretary of the in terior. has new plan for the ex- plotting of the vast coal deposits in Alaska, which he believes will prove satisfactory solution to the compli- tdted problem.
 The new scheme proposes to allot to cities within the territory allotments of coal lands. in order they may se- cure a supply and maintain a muni- cipal coal yard for the benefit of the masses.
 The first step in the measure pre- vides for congress to pass d jaw granting coal claim or eombin ltioa UT to 64o acres. to prevent monopp'y and allowing any four claimants to pooi their hundred and sixty acre tracts. to expediate exploration upon an econom- ical basis.

SEEN AND HEARD


 The Nome baseball team has been practising every evening getting into shape to pull of a game tomorrow afternoon between two local teams weather permitting. The boys have not had sufficient practice of late to take on the Ft. Davis nine, but as soon as a collection of players can be gotten together 50 a good team can be had. the players of which will remain in this vicinity long enough to pull of a game. a challenge will be issued to the Fort Davis baseball team.
 The team will play tomorrow after noon at three o'clock if weather proves favorable.
 Tomorrow the respective candidates will rest up bit. to be in trim for the final lap of the campaign. Gilmore will wind up his campaign in Eagle hall. and the place will be crowded. for no person will close an engagement, other than will allow them to be free Monday evening to attend the Gilmore rally. other candidates may hold rallies. but the crowd will be in Eagle Hall. for Eomeites are anxious to hear Gilmore answer the speech of Dan | Sutherland's and take our hunch. he | will not only answer it but inform | the people the workings behind the scenes. which prompted Dan to go the limit. in taking fall out of every official in the land from the judges tJ the republican candidate.
 The telegraph wires are working in good shape once more. and the local operators are as pleased as the news paper men, to have business sent with ! dispatches. and answers received in | short order of late the boys in the | down town office. and up at the wire less station. have not been able to eat regular. owing to the condition of the lines in different sections of the territory. forcing them to work double shift most of the time.
 The local boys are to be commended for their patience and courteous meth ' ods of handling the business under such stress.
 The Bourbon power plant was knocked out for nearly an hour last evening by being struck with light ming. and were it not for the efficient | force working at the plant under the able management of Mir. Mcconnell inc superintendent. Nomeites wou'j have gone without their evening paper yesterday.
 The plant was struck twice from the thunder storm. and two trans- formers burned out. doing considera- hle damage to the power plant When the Bourbon plant went out of com mission. the Nome plant was started up and the plant would have been generating juice in. short time hao not Mack" gotten the Bourbon plant in working shape as he did.
 Thunder and lightning are rarely known In this section. although a thunder storm visited the Seward Peninsula some five or six years ago. about the same time of the day. and if was then remarked upon by even the Eskimos.
