NOME MINING MEN
 COME OVER TRAIL

Among the arrivals in Cordova on today's train were J. H. Miles and A. w. Stevens, two mining men of Se- ward peninsula, who are en route to the states. They travelled from Nome to Fairbanks with their own team of eight dogs and made the trip in one month and one day. Owing to the fact that the bay was not frozen over when they left Nome, they were com pelled to go around Norton sound, which caused them to be on the road several days longer than would other wise have been necessary.
 Conditions along the Yukon river are reported to be quiet, and at no place did they see anything exciting. The trail is in bad shape for the great CT part of the distance. For finish ing touch, the mushers made 55 miles, from Minto to Fairbanks.
 MT. Miles is manager of the Seward dredge, on Solmon creek. He did not take the last boat Outside as he was anxious to work the plant as long as possible.
