 Statements made by Chester and Mollie Dexter are to the effect that not in the history of Golovin bay has there been such a phenomenal run of herring, and the many fish ermen engaged in putting up this tocthsome and wholesome fish for the outside markets are working night and day with very gratifying results. The shoals are literally in myriads and the fish in just fine condition. It is safe to say that there is no herring in any other sec tion of the ocean equals these that are now being caught. In view if the food value of these herring and the demand for them in a var iety of centers, it is regrettable that the government has not seen fit to aid in the exploitation of his splen- did fish and the resulting relief would follow in market where it, like every other product, is some what short in supply considering the immense demand.

Mir. Eide who returns on the Ram to the Domedes is now going on his third year in that desolate region. He has an interesting col lection of photos taken on that somewhat bleak and desolate spot, and if the camera does not belle nature, it would be hard to discover it's equal for desolation. There is only one point where boats can land and the native villages are close by there There also are the native school houses and the Bureau of Education'5 establishments. Mr. Eide does not find it all rose water in teaching the aboriginal minds and he is far from observing that they are the unsophisticated crea- lures they are usually supposed. The first year teacher is there they are very nice. because the teacher does not know them and they trick him into a belief that they are starving and poverty
 stricken. The teacher usually opens up to their stories and gives pIent- fully from his store. He later dis covers that he is imposed upon and the natives seeing that he is wise to their moves the second year show no interest in their friend and Mentor. Then they try to rid them selves of the teacher so that an other man may come to minister to their needs and incidentally to fall for their hard luck stories. Mir, Eide crossed from the DiOmedcs to Wales in a 20 foot skin boat fitted with an evinrude engine and propollor There is a current aver aging between three and eight knots running in the straits with usually q heavy wash and sea. He was almost wrecked because right at the critical moment the engine bucked and he was only able to reach ShOre some nVe miles north of Wales where he was carried by the current and the wind He bucked it for several hours when the engine broke down and he thought it was all over. He is not sorry to return again to the Diomedes with his wife and family. This makes soma Companionship and is not under such conditions as intolerable as it might be for a single man. The Diomedes natives, mostly former whalers and their descendants, from their intercourse with such whites are far from the fine people that arc encountered in other sections. at least that is the local reputation among these who are acquainted with the charges which fall to this teachers lot.

Nestor ayers that Caspar, Wyo., re- minded him of Nome in the early days when everyone had money and appeared to be making money. It was described as q wonderful country with oil everywhere The principal town Was C&spar where there were then between seven and eight thousand people. It was To- cated about the center of pfoduc- tion where the Northwestern and the Burlington railroad met It was still booming wbcu he was there and oil w&s being found all over the county. Men were going there from oil countries in every section and he himself had bought shares in the Wyoming Eastern and Allen Oil Go. which he would not take ten for the one dollar in veatod. He had reached there on June Is and since then had ob- tained good leases. some five thou sand acres close to the productive lard having been obtained by his interests. In this connection 1t may be stated several other p~rt:es in Nome have had a6yices concerning this great oil strike and the conse- quent boom that was proceeding.

superintendent has recommended
the purchase of new equipment,

The two units now in the plant
are rated normally at 500 Kilowatts,
and are guaranteed to carry an over
load under normal conditions OF ov-

experts Who tested the generators
after their installation, that they

words, that they were .under-rated.

Miss ROsalind Cook is tile gdaugh-
ter Of Mr.. and Mrs. w. H. Cook and
her inherited musical ability has
been, -andsis now being supplemented
withts Iard musical training. Miss
Cook is a graduate Of the Ellsworth
|Conseryatory4of Music and sisfnow a
pupil HI piano Of Allan Spencer in
the American Conservatory Of Music
in Chicago. As an accompanist she
has that uncommon quality Of SYM
pathy without Which no pianist is a
true accompanist. AS a pianiste, she
belongs in the first class, having
combined genius with hard. work
with gratifying results. It is a real
delight to listen to Miss Cooks in
terpretations and her two Chopin
numbers were artistic renditions.
Especially the Prelude in D Flat, in
which, the piano was literally made
to sing the theme. Her third solo,
Dancing Gnomes," by List, was
charmingly given and she responded
to the. ENCORE with an old English
hunting song written in the. seven
teen hundreds,
Miss Cook accompanied every vo-
cal selection upon the program and
considering the range and quality Of
seleotionss performed with delicacy
and ~finesse, a thing possible only to
a skilled accompanist.
The reader upon the program,
Mrs. Louise steele-Phillips MRS. r.
S. Phillips) is seldom heard in pub
tic programs in this city, although
she has been the power behind the
throne in several medal contests
here. having drilled the successful
contestants in various instances.
Mrs. Phillips lis i graduate Of the
oratorical work in Emerson College
In Boston, where she also has taken
post graduaxe work and is a reader
OF a class justly dignitied by the
name-artiste. Everything that goes
to make up a perfect reader seems to.
have been impaired to Mrs. Phillips
by the kind fates, for she has per-
sonality, charm, stage presence,
voice, and unites these with a sym
pathetic Interpretation rare indeed.
Only one number was upon the pro-
grama-kipling's. Ballad Of East and
West.ibuts the reader %graciously re-
sponded with an encore.
One who had never heard Mrs.
Phillips before and hearing her only
in Kiplingt poems, might we'll say
that here was a perfect Kipling read
er who ought Y give anything
else. But the hint Of latent power
and sympathy there, would indicate
there was nothing this reader could
not with ihipunity attempt. Her nunl-
bers wefea given to raptIy intent
audience and were the productions
OF a splendidly developed talent.
The program as a whole was q fit
ting finish to a, four number musical
doing the impressarloi w. H.
Cook, Einmeasurable credit-with
one exception-the size OF the audi
ences. ieThese were in no instances
worthy OF the quality n always
finds at a Cook concert. Musical
good taste will grow by the develop
ment Of lit. and hope still springs
that the time will come when the
Cook courses will be a financial as
well as q reputable success to the
promoter.
