Nome to be added TO the others which
have been borne in upon this COM

of the Seldom has. there is reason to

by the deaths Of two men who were
well known here and who were of the
kind whose loss is always deplorable.
They were men who worked hard and
faced the dangers Of the sea while
others took life easy or kicked about
their lots. They were men who had
an important place in the scheme for

out. The people of the community

II is very clear by this time that the
transportation companies have tried to
make as much as possible ont Of the
Shishana strike and no one can blame
the Cordova railroad and the other
companies plying the Yukon have ad-
vertised the new strike with most
commendable energy and have sue
ceeded admirably in receiving without
charge very great amount of pub
licity for the country into which each
of half dozen routes was easily the
best. Fortunately the stampeders of
Nome have got some sense-sense ac-
quired by many stampedes and no one
but a few people who have had only
very little experience of such matters
got taken in.
1t il claer now that to go to the
Shlshana at the present time would be
pure folly. This Is not said with any
foolish idea Of holding people in Nome
for 1t is clear to the most ordinary in
telligence that the country that would
have to depend on such tactics would
be badly up against 1t. 1t Is merely
said in the hope that It will help peo-
pie to think for themselves-and this
has been the policy adopted all the
time to Offset the natural excitement

The taking of the soldiers from AL

force has been established to take their

The Sweet Things

A press dispatch from Chicago has
this to say: Handbags for men (?)
is the latest conceit of Chicago bou-
levardiers. The new fad is about to
replace the wrist watch, which found
great favor here.
The innovation had its rise in the
new close form fitting models of
mems attire, which allows no room
for unsightly bulges of pocketbook,
handkerchiefs or coin purses.
The bags contain the handkerchief,
cigarette case, cards, small mirror
and money. Several have made their
appearance. Sleeves have become so
tight that the handkerchief was ban
ished from them long since, and
tight trowsers presented the same
obstacle to carrying anything in the
pockets.

Miller's station.
The district was worked to some
extent years ago and ore shipped af-
ter careful sampling The old work
iugs still contain ore OF fair grade at
number of points. The Highl and
vein has been opened to distance
of about 5000 feet at intervals OF
from 100 to 800 feet, and at each
opening fair values have been found.
Twelve leases have been let on the
main vein. The ground covering the
discovery has been optioned to Tom
Kerns ami w. II. Fletcher. A town
site has been established and lots
have been sold for $3.50 each.
About $50 people are now in the
camp. There is saloon, two res
