NUGGET HAS SENT FOR COMPLETE PASSENGER

The Nugget correspondent has been instructed to wire the entire passenger list of the Victoria as soon as the boat leaves Seattle.
 This is an expense of no small item, but the Nugget has always in mind the duty it owes to it's sub scribers and is willing to conduct It's columns in a manner commen- surate with the support and en- couragement given by the citizens of Nome, more particularly it's sub- scribers and advertisers. To obtann telegraphic news requires an outlay of funds that must be met by rev. enues of the business and conse- quently the more subscribers and advertisers a periodical has the more news can be published
 The increase in business the past week 1ustifies the management in mourning this and other expense.

One always feels as if they were hit in the pit of the stomach, or the bottom had dropped out of everything. At least that is the way Stubby described his feelings to Billy and Button when they all three were talking over their sensations and experiences after their flight.

ANOTHER MEETING.

Between Miss Joyce Wethered, new British women's golf champion, and Miss Cecil Leitch, the dethroned 1 champ, may take place in the United | States this fall. according to word from abroad. The new champ and former queen are expected to come to this country next September to play in the East and in Canada and it is possible they may meet in the American women's championship tourney.
 Miss Wethered's spectacular vfc-
 tory over Miss Leitch in the British
 title meet after Miss Leitch had
 reigned eight years. was a, surprise but cannot be consid cred a flash on
 Miss Wethered's part. Her achieve ment is the reward for years of care- ful study. perseverance, and the de- velopment of a masterful style of play.
 Miss wethered had held the Eng fish mpionship, a closed event, two years. She met Miss Leitch in the finals of the British tourney last year but lost oiGt four up and three to go. When they met last month in the finals most critics believed that Miss Leitch still was unbeatable. But Miss Wethered led the cha mDion around the course in the first trip and in the afternoon play completely outc1assed Miss Leitch so much so that Miss Leitch conceded defeat at the eleventh hole when she saw that she was about to lose that after ap- preaching it eight down
 Miss Wethered comes of a golfing family, so to speak. Her brother, Roger Wethered. ranks in the fore ground as golfer and has written interestingly on the game.

 The brakeman went forward, but when he came to the tramp he found himself gazing into the barrel of a gun. and was ordered back to the rear and informed he might as well stay there and save himself some trouble. The brakeman returned to the ca- boose.
