A touching incident of fond re- membrance of Alaska Is illustrated in a little story told by Mrs. Mamie

They are living on Q little ranch and have neat bungalow. where the latchstrinE always hangs outside of the door to all old Ala ska friends who visit. they are both enjoying good health and have not waned one iOta In the hospitality for which they were so famous in Nome.

 home: these consist of Alaska for

The Silver Wave returned from
 Teller Friday after being locked in
 the inner harbor by the ice foes of
 Port Clarence Bay. for nearly 4
 week. To those who gre new corners to Nome it is not easy to understand
 why a vessel leaving Nome for Tel Ter, a distance of approximately 100 miles by boat. should not be able to return within at least 4S hours. But to the sourionghs of many years ex- perience. 1t is easy to understand. Teller Is one of the very few places along the Alaskan coast north of Golovin that has harb0r. In fact il has two harbOrs. namely Port Clarence Bay and also Grantley har- bor. The two harbOrs are joined by very narrow neck and any ves- sel not drawing over six or seven feet Of water can safely enter the inner harbOr. This the Silver Wave on her first trip Of the season did, entering lead in the Ice off Point Spencer, the little vessel safely made her entrance into the inner harbor
 hut no sooner had the vessel gained 1 admission to her desired docking place, the wind changed and forced iihe ice field towards the marrow neck thus blocking the escape of the Silver Wave to open water and the sea, until late Thursday. By gOO'l
 navigation and the assistance of s
 little change in the wind 1t was pos
 sible for Capt Walters to buck hi,
