BEN DAHL'S
POKE Of GOLD

From recent activities in and about

Norah Moore is not the only one who

thing is clear. Ben Dahl had the

from the ground. This is indisputa-
Bile. The rest is more or less hazy.
But 1t seems that he fell in love or
something of the kind. Any way. he

young woman. which is prima facie
evidence of it, as the lawyers say.
He gave her the gold to keep. She
kept it. She ran away with it. but

SEVERE WIND STORM MAKES
VISIT TO TANANA VALLEY

One of the worst wind storms in
the history of Fairbanks hit the camp
about midnight Friday and lasted I'M
til Saturday evening. The wind was
accompanied by the loose snow which
drifted the roads and trails in many
places. Although the weather was
warm the frosted wind had biting
effect upon all those who were out
doors. AS is usual the storm had
it's origin in the States and had spent
its velocity when it reached here and
even though the velocity of the wind
was recorded at over 40 miles an hour
no damage was reported except to
rattle a few stovepipes.
Reports from the creeks are to the
effect that the late windstorm has
blocked the trails in places five and
six feet deep and for as many miles
in length.
