TARPON FASTEST FISH.

Great Speed.

Much has been written as 10 the

stronger fish than trout. and in n
race between the two l should say that
the mackerel would be the winner.
Other things being equal. the larger
a FISH the more rapidly II can swim. a
10-pound salmon can give a very good
imitation OF tornado. Even when
hooked and dragging "a line against a

terrifying.

According to J. J. Walsh mail from the States should arrive in Nome on or about the 18th of Mo- vember, coming via the government railroad to Nenana and by dog team to Unalakleet and Nome.

Joe DeRosie, the Teller mail car- Tier left Nome Nov. 1st with about 12O pounds of mail for the north and returned to Nome Nov. 9th, carrying about 25 pounds of mail and one passenger, MT. F. Miller.
 On the trip north his dog team had hard pulling as there was no snow until Cape Wolley was reach ed, four days were required to make the trip to Teller. On the return trip more snow was encountered and travelling was easier. The la goons were overfiowed and it was necessary to take to the foot hills. but even so the return WAS made in three days. From Sinrock down the trail was in fine condition and no doubt by this time the new snow has placed the entire length of trail in excellent sledding condition.

BELT BREAKS AT

 The plant is supplied with both steam and gas engines. The gas engine is the one constantly in use. the steam being retained merely as an emergency. As the gas engine Is most reliable and seldom requires repairs or attention the other units have been unused for many months and as is the case with unused ma chinery. parts become set and when first started up many times fail to respond. In this instance the smaller of the two au1!llary units burned out a bearing throwing 1t out fcommission. and leaving but one unit remaining to supply the demands of the city. From Tues day until Friday this generator run be steam was the only availahle source of power and consequently lights and motors were in commits sion intarmittently.
 The broken belt is an IS inch endless leather belt and when 1t parted tore itself to pieces to such an extent that ten feet of leather had to be cut on and replaced. Belt mending or repairing is an art in itself and requires more than ordinary skill. however. Mir. Jam sen proved equal to the emergency. The town was secured for leather and cement to repair the damage and by taking odds and ends the large leather belt was finally com pleted and the gas engine is now humming her former tune. supply ing all the power that is necessary tc keep the community supplied.

SCHOOL BOND ISSUE DEFEATED.

The $4,000 bond issue for an ad-
ditional school building, submitted
to vote of the citizens of Paris
Saturday at the polls, failed to re-
ceive the necessary two-thirds ma
jority, and was defeated. A total of
465 votes was cast in the election.
267 being in favor of the issue and
1913 opposed.
1t is claimed that the failure to
carry the proposition was due for
the most part because the members
of the City Board of Education
would not make a definite promise
to erect the proposed building in
the south end of the city. A large
number of school children live in
that section who have to come a mile
or more in all kinds. of weather to
reach the present City School build
ing on Seventh street. There has
been considerable friction from the
start in regard to the location of
of the proposed new building
While many wanted it located in
South Paris, many others contended
it should be made part of the build

vancing plausible arguments in be-
half of their contentious.
