wounded in half a dozen places.
He reached for his riue when the.
detectives entered, but was too
weak to bring it to his shoulder.
He was overpowered, and word
of his capture was sent to Hills
vile and caused general rejoicing.
How he escaped from the de-
tectiyes is not known. a mail
man brough the news late this af-
ternoon. He had heard the story
of the escape second hand, but
evidently the willy old noun
taineer had feigned to be hurt
more badly than he was, and then
outwitted the detectives.
Soon after the mailnan's mes
sage reached here, practically the
entire force of detectives here,
sixty in number, took to the.
mountains, determined to run
down the aged leader of the Al
lens. He is supposed to be hiding
in Fancy Gap, deep gully of the
Blue Ridge mountains, in which
there is one of the old under
ground passages used during
the civil war.
A special grand jury convened
here today and returned indie
ment against the Aliens.
Floyd Allen is in Jail here, as
is also his son Victor. Floyd is
suffering from a self-inhicted
cash across his throat and FIVE
bullet wounds. He may live.
There is some fear that his
kinsman will attempt to rescue
him. The jail is guarded night

ESkIMOS CALL
 NOME CROOKED
GIN TIARA zWAk IS THE TITLE
 GIVEN CITY OY NATIVES.

Here Nome has been living in d false paradise for several years never doubting for a moment its own per feet lovcliness of character while all the time a great portion of it's popu- lation called it a name which trans. lated means the very opposite of what we had believed ourselves to be.
 Sin thra zwak is the name by which the Eskimos know our fair city and Sin thra zwak means. purely and sim- ply and literally, something crooked.
 The Eskimo language has been full ly mastered by a resident of Nome and it's grammar arranged and vocabu- lary complied. One very remarkable fact about the language Is that be- sides Greek. 1t is the only tongue which has a dual case. It will say one man." three or four men" but when speaking about two it changes the form of the noun and. as an example. man or men might become mon.
 Snake river has no particular name. When alluding to any stream the Es- kimo simply says the river" which in his own language is kook. Nook puk is big river and by that word they speak of the Yukon. The Kobuk probably received it's name that way also.
 Sledge island is pronounced ia Two words are used for snow. or rath. er two accommodations for the same word. They are apun and avun. See guk is ice.
 No one seems to know how Nome frst got the name of being something crooked. There is stiil hope that our own fellow citizens did not mean the description as a reflection upon our moral character. The name may after all have been suggested by the contour of some of our streets par tieulaFly in the suburb so much ire quepted by our critics.
