WALKED FROM CANDLE
 TO CATCH VICTORIA


 Oscar Swanson, a. resident of Can dle, arrived in Nome Thursday after a nine days mush from Candle. MT. Swanson was one of the unfor- tunate northerners who found it impossible to procure passage on the Valdez. With MT. Swanson came Louis Hammock fellow unfortun- ate. Three members of the COrdo- vado camp were left behind and possibly they too have started to walk overland. For several days they tried to enter into teiephonic communicable with Nome to learn further boat movements for the North, but as the line was down they had no success and likely started to walk. However the contingency re- mains that they may have decided to remain north few days longer in which case they will be fortunate enough to catch the Ram or the Nokatak and possible the Sea "oif' the latter boat having determined to go as far as Teller. Truly 1t IS an unfortunate circumstance that forces these pioneer northern min- CTS and business men to walk sev- oral hundred miles to reach the port 0. Nome at this time of the year.

TRADER HERMAN HAS
 SUCCESSFUL FUR
 GATHERING TRIP


 The Liebes trader Herman. Capt
 C. T. Peterson, left Nome July 14th, !! 1922, bound for Coronation Gulf in | the Arctic and returned to Teller Sept. 2s and left for Frisco Sept. 25. ~Leaving Nome the Herman pro- ceeded as far as Point Hope and there encountered ice conditions which held her for over month without being able to make much progress. During this time the boat crused back and forth in the neighborhood of Cape Lisburne. From Lisburne to Point Barrow an ice barrier for six miles off shore prevented landing or even approach to the shore. At Barrow she and the Bear arrived about the same time an dfortunately wind sprung up opening a lead so that both boats could approach within short dis tance of the shore. The Herman landed her mail and some little freight.
 Leaving Point Barrow the boat started for Herschel Island. trading along the coast as she proceeded. The Lady Kindersley left Barrow about one week later than the Her. man and arrived at Herschell Island two days ahead of the other boat.
 From Herschell Island the Her man got as far east as Bailey Island. about 2SO miles east from Her schell. As her destination was Cor onation Gulf with freight for Mir. Klinkenberg she was unable to make that point and after stopping "A hrs at Bailey Island returned to Teller. According to reports from the na- tiyes Klinkenberg had some 2OOO fox skins which were intended for the Herman. but as she was unable to reach him the furs went to the Hudson Bay Company.
 At Bailey Island the fur catch was phenominal, one man caught S6 m three days, while a certain family had caught over 800 prime skins. all of which were obtained by the Herman. As he traded along the entire coast. wherever he was able to land. Captain Peterson had most successful trading season. not withstanding the unfavorabie weather conditions.
 From Tangent Point, on the way to Herschell, the boat encountered newly forming ice and for miles were forced to employ an ice break CT consisting of boom with three anchors attached. swung from the bow. About { miles an hour pro- gress was in this way possible.
 No whaling was possible this year on account of the weather con- ditions.
 Captain Peterson will return to these Northern waters next year with a new boat to take the place of the Herman: boat larger and more modern than the present one.
 Captain Peterson reports that the Lady Kindersley got no farther than Herschell Island she too was bound for Coronation Guif- and was forced to leave her freight at that point. According to Walter Marks Teller Scout the Kindersley was forced to beach her freight and accordingly lost all of her per- ishabIe goods.
 Fred Walkie was passenger from Nome on the Herman and re- mained with her until her return trip to Teller, from which port he returned to Nome Monday on the Nokatak.
