DREDCE CAST ADRIFT IS
 WASHED UP BY WAVES

The Ernst dredge, recently cast adrift in a sinking condition few miles from Topkok, while being tow ed to the Bluff section, floated ashore later few miles from the point where it was to have been de- livered, according to members of the dredge crew who mushed back to Nome, arriving there several days after the mishap. They report that the hull and machinery were appar- ently uninjured by the experience, but the housing was wrecked by the action of the waves, very little of it remaining when the derelict landed on the beach,. The men also report finding some of their personal be- longings which were on the dredge when it was cut loose.
 It is considered probable that no attempt will be made to move the dredge this fall, beyond hauling it to place of safety on the beach.

TRADING SCHOONER GOES
 ON BEACH DURING BLOW

Caught in the grip of surf and wind, the power schooner Gertrude, bound from St. Michael to Anadyr with a party of three men enroute to the Siberian coast to spend the winter prospecting, was cast ashore recently a short distance to the westward of Nome. The schooner ar rived in the Nome roadstead from St. Michael early in the day and anchored there, but after brief time began to drag her anchor and very shortly afterward was in the surf, headed shoreward.
 Realizing the futility of trying to get the craft out to sea, those on board slipped the anchor chain and headed straight for the beach, and landed there right side up. The men scrambled to shore with the aid of the coast guard crew.
 During the same storm two light CTS belonging to the Alaska Light craze company were also driven to the beach, landing mile or two to the westward of Nome.

BOATS ARE FROZEN FAST;
 NAVIGATION IS AT AN END

More suddenly than in any season in late years, navigation has come to an end on the Panama and Yukon rivers and all voyages are at an end with the exception of that undertaken by the steamer Reliance, which left for Cinema late this afternoon.
 The steamer Alaska which sailed for Whitehorse early Sunay morning is stuck at Tolovana and has gone into winter quarters there The Yu- kon, which was turned back at the mouth of the river when it was ap- parent that the boat could not get to Nenana and back to Whitehorse, has gone into winter quarters at Gibbon, and the Seattle No. is trying to get to Tolovana before the ice blocks the river completely. It is believed the Panama also will put up for the winter at Tolovana.
 Tho passengers stalled on the several boats will be compelled to shift for themselves and those on board the Alaska probably will be back in Nenana within the next day or two.

The Irish potato at the present time
is soaring in price in this part of the
country. We read that down in Texas
they are worth $l.20 per peck in the
ground, in Baltimore the price is $500
per bushel, and that in Chicago hundreds
of carloads are being held on the rail-
road tracks to make the price go sky

to certain extent for present prices,

J. VIM. PAYNE.
Secretary.
We are publishing in this weeks issue
the annual statement of the business
transacted for the past year by the
Commissioners of Thurmont.
During the year Altamont Avenue.
Carroll street and the greater part of
Main street were thoroughly oiled aud
Clipped making very sEiooth roadway
and rendering the same practically dust
less. The citizens of the. town and also
the residents within the community sur
rounding the town were very liberal in
their contributions toward meeting the
great expense entaied in making this
long needed improvement. This CO.
operation of the people at large is very
much appreciated by the Board of Com
missioners.
The c. & P. Telephone Compa ny has
renewed practically all of its poles thru
out the town and were good enough to
grant to the town the privilege of plac-
ing the Municipal Electric Light wires
on these new poles. This will do away
with quite number of the smaller poles
erected by the town and make much
stronger and better constructed line for
the distribution Of electric current and
also will have the eff ect of eleyating the
wires above the tFaes planted aIase the
SIDE walks and Will do away with con.
siderable of the low trimming OF trees
which has hersioiore been found very
Objectionable. Considerable repairs
have been made on the water pipe line
andsdam strengthening them wherever
found to be weak.
Extensions of distributing lines for
current have been made out side of town
in several different directions and in all
about thirty-five new subscribers have
been added during the year. The R9srt
feels that notwithstanding the high c2sl
sf III, materials AID labor that the state
ment for the years business reflects q
very creditabIe profit,
