Thomas Ochman has bought the yond the Standard Oil where it has been standing tenantless since the big storm of 1913. Tom bought the building for the lumber it contains and he intends to repair his own dwelling and also to erect with the lumber a comfortable prospecting cabin on his property in the Rodney vicinity.
 According to it's reported position the Umatilla will arrive early on Sunday morning with much freight, a considerable number of passengers and a mail of dimensions for Nome The Latouche is still unloading at St. Michaels. Local agents had no idea when the steamer would be finished although they ventured to some time today. The Latouche will come to Nome to take mail out side, the steamer going from here direct to Seattle. It is not unlikely that a shortage of experienced stevedores may have something to do delaying the steamer as forty men have quit, the company has been obliged to fal. back upon the natives who do not believe in white men or corporations owned by any person extracting more than a de finite amount of surplus value out of their hides at given time. They cannot be rushed and neither pray CTS nor curses are going to excite them to do any faster than the bit that they have laid out for them selves.

ZBY.ZlO CLAIMS The
WRESTLING CHAMPIONSHIP

Nlldek LbyszkO, who defeated Stran-
gler Lewis In the nnal match OF the
three weeks international wrestling
tournament In New York recently, has
laid claim 20 the heavyweight catch-as-
catch can championship OF the world.
Lbyszk0 insists that his victory over
Lewis entities him Go supreme honois
and gives his reasons for thinking so.
Although Zhyszkos claim will not
receive much attention among wrest-
ling experts and sporting men In gen
eral because tho two recognized leade s
I In the heavyweight division, Earl Cad
dock and Joe Stocher, must be taker
into consideration when the ch1mplon-
7 ship Is involved, his manager and the
promoters OF the recent tourney point
% the fact that Zbyszko has received
championship bel; for beating Lewis,
and will be booked as the catch-as-
catch-can tlileholder 10 an tournaments
staged In the future.
Despite such announcement the facts
do not support Lhyszk0's claim. As
pointed out above. championship
competition without Earl Caddock and
Joe Siecher resembles Hamlet" with
The Dane missing. Caddock had beaten
siecher,. former claimant Of the title.
and as Lewis had defeated Olin, con-
queror Of stecher, Caddock and Lewis
were the logical c0ntcnders FOR the
championship with Caddock IN The lead.
lhyszko had lost 20 Lewis before the
recent tourney started. and as Zbyszko
had never met Caddock or stccher, he
was only IN third position so FAR as
the title was concerned, and his VIC
tory over Lewis last Saturday dues not
IN the least alter the situation.
Cadd0ck Appeared only IN two minor
bouts In the tourney just ended and
slecher did not appear at all. The
only way TO settle the champion
ship claim Is 90 get Lewis, Zhyszk0,
stechor and Caddock together IN an
elimination tournament.

from Northern Wisconsin Mr. Calvin
has had the horns IN his Ofllce for sew

found that Cobb had batted 80 in his
i3 years in the American League. while
keelers thirteenth year batting mark
dropped to 3O2 and his i3-year aver
age 90 3G7
Arguing from keeler's record Il
might be supposed that Il Is about
time for the Tiger star 10 hlt the de-
cline After Keller had finished his
twelfth year he never had another
great season.
In 1908 he hit 302. In 1906 hif
AVERAGE was .30i lie dropped to .23i
In 1907 and IN 1903 and 1909 he batted
.263 and .26i respectively. In 1910 he
finished his big league career by bat
ting an even 800
Maybe this record should stand as
a criterion Of how Cobb VIII act after
his thirteenth year, but the way Cobb
"busied 'em up last year doesn't look
like much Of an indication that he Is
likely 90 drop very far for a few years
90 come al any rate.
