A very pleasant entertainment indeed was given in the Eagle Hall on Saturday night where every one of the little performers executed their parts with a grace and ease and cleverness would have done credit to much more experienced and far older artists. The singing was altogether delightful, the May pole dance charming and taken all in all it was one Of the most at tractive entertainments given In Nome for a long time. Lilliputian stars and prima donnas certainly delighted everyone who heard them.

 No one knows anything about the mails this spring. Chief Clerk Fehse received word some time ago that the Bear had not arrived ill Seattle as vet so whether this cutter is going to take up mail or not this summer is a very uncertain matter. It was about May , that the Bear started north In other years with Nome mail It is now doubt ful if the mails will be sent up prior to the regular steamers on the opening of navigation. One can imagine what will be the mail con gestion in the local post office if this is done.
 The difficulty which occurred earlier in the week between the men employed by the Pioneer Min ing Co. and the management over the inception of the summer scale, was on Saturday evening adjusted by Manager Stevenson agreeing to pay the men the scale of five dollars day and board and putting all back to work at this rate. The men returned to their camps yester- day morning at an early hour and the whole friction is a thing of the past. The settlement was a very sensible method of procedure and the action of the management meets the approval of the whole camp. What might have developed into a struggle which left behind, no matter how it resulted, consid- erable hard feelings, is happily dis posed of Public sentiment on- dorsed the action of the men in asking the five dollars a day scale, as the dollar today has at least de creased in purchasing power to such an extent that five today will not buy as much as three dollars would ten years ago, especially of winter now in Nome.
