CITY MAY PASS UP
 SMITH SITE OFFER
Col. T. 0. Smith Agrees on Other Improvements, But
 No Decision

Smith park as an auditorium site will not be accepted by the city com
 mission at it's short meeting this morning, according to reliable infor- nation at city hall. W
 In a conference with the city com
 mission yesterday morning, Col. T. o. Smith, is said to have agreed to the
 paving of half the block surrounded by the Smith heirs in addition to 70 acres in the center of the park for the auditorium site.
 Despite this concession by the don- ors of the property 1t is understood that the commi ssioners believe that smith park is located too far from the business center of Birmingham to make a logical site for the audi torium.
 Commissioner Harrison will not be | present at the Wednesday meeting, being called to Montgomery to ap- pear before the public service com mission and conimi ssioner W. E. Dickson announced he would bring 1 the auditorium site proposition ups l It is not Known whether another

Last Sunday morning NOmeites viewed the approach of q strange looking craft from the eastward. It looked like lighter with a pilot house and was proce eding under it's own power at the rate of from to 8 miles per hour. By noon it was anchored in Snake river harbor and proved to be new device for min ing beach gold.
 The Sea Mining Company of Seat tie is the name of the company own ing and operating this machine and ct, sists of three members who con- stitute the crew. they are Wilhelm Niedergeseass. Glen Petterson and Bernhard Killian, all of Seattle.
 The boat and it's supplies were shipped on the Cordova to GOloVih and unloaded into the water. In fifteen minutes after launching from the freighter the dredge was under way to Nome. using her own motive power, a 32 h.p. N & s engine.
 Ten tons of freight and mining supplies were crowded into the hold and on her decks giving her but few inches free board. Without accident the sturdy craft made the trip from Golovin to Nome and now is being rigged for work in Bering Sea beaches.
 The object and purpose Of the owners and operators of this ma chine is to prospect and mine the gravel deposits under the waters or Bering Sea, demonstrating either that claims made by old timers In this community are real or once and for all times disillusionizing sup porters of the theory of gold de posits in the sands of the sea
 When once operations begin the boat will work in water as deep as twenty feet The boat will first prospect the sands off he old grave yard on the Spit.

NEW BEACH GOLD DIGGER ARRIVES
 IN SNAKE RIVER

Unlike many other crafts that have undertaken to mine Boring Sea this machine will be able in ff- teen minutes to pull up and scoot tor Snake river harbor and escape the storms that may arise.
 As to the particular method to be employed in mining the owners are reticient. They say that they have worked out plan of saving the gold but don't care to say what it is. If they are successful a larger machine will be built and operations proceed on a bigger scale. If their method is failure they will leave for the outside and no one will be injured but themselves. No stocks or bonds have been sold to finance the yen- ture.. The men are workmeu from the States who have staked their own poke on the venture and feel confident of success.
 Two of the men are Alaskans Whlle the OtueT Has never eApeiichS ed Alaskan conditions. Bernhard Killian was here in Nome in 1913 and 14 with the Polar Bear and again in 1916 on the Great Bear Mir. Peterson worked on the Yukon for several years with the Y. N. Co. Mir. Niedergeseass is the new conner. All express themselves greatly en- thusiastic over their proposed ven- ture.
 Nomeites who have seen the many failures attending the mining ot Bering Sea will watch this new process with great interest. IT these men are succe ssful a new min ing field will have been opened for the future development and reha- bilitation of our camp.

Unless a feasible means by which

next meeting, there is possibility
that the organization will be dis

Thought of abandoning the or
