Tint he will recommend to the Ca nadian government that the future supplies for the Stefansson expedition be purchased at Nome as he believes that Nome can supply the goods need ed for Arctic work better than and other city on the continent is the statement made by George Phiilips. the fiscal agent who represented the Dominion in outfitting the party that left Nome some time ago.
 MT. Phillips also expressed himself as more than we'll pleased with the reception the people extended to him and the members of the expedition while they were in Nome. Apart from this, however. he has declared that Nome is in possession of more of the things needed for the Arctic than other towns because of its geograph- ,cai location and the trade constantly carried on here.
 The articles purchased for the trip prove this clearly. Fifty dogs of the best kind were purchased here. The price paid for them. by the way. was $50 each.
 The distillate purchased amounted to S6.O00 and the hardware bought from Darling and Dean amounted to ss,000. MT. Phillips said that the

NEWS NOTES

The large amount of coal which ar rived recently is not being sacked now. It is said that the reason is the claim of the men that for sacktng the coal they should receive the wages of lonGshoremen. which is one dollar per hour. The company, 1t is said. consid- cred the work not that of "longshore- ing and would pay 76 cents an hour. The sackfng of the coal would mean about Ss,OO0 or $1oooo in wages. These facts are got from neither side. hut from a third party.

Charity House to Reopen.
The Charity house on South Camp
bell street, which had to be closed dur
ing the summer because of lack of
means to keep 1t in running order, will
be opened again next Thursday.
The work of the association is di-
vided into four departments; the tuber-
cular work. of which Mrs. U. S. Stew
art IS the chairman; the baby camp, in
charge of Mrs J. G. McNary as chair
man; the relief work under the care OF
Mrs ". L. FOXWorth, and the office in
care of Mrs. Hooper.
Through the kind efforts OF Mr
Stewart, number of business men of
the city subscribe generously to the
tubercular fund annually, and this
helps lift the burdens almost too great
to bear when one is i'll and pennileSS-
IHeSe patents are visited frequently

Clothing Sent From Myndus.
Last week, in answer to an appeal in
the papers, Mrs. Hooper received a let
ter from a resident of Myndus, n. NJ,
asking how to send a box of clothing
to the association; the necessary direc-
lions were sent and word came back
that two boxes of good clothing were
on the way. Among the daily donations
acknowledged are Il loaves of bread
from the Purity bakery.
The sources of revenue by means
of which the association is enabled to
carry on its splendid work of helping
men and women to help themselves
are: funds derived from the Charity
ball, dues of members. city and county
contributions and donations from gen
erous citizens.
