On the outgoing steamer Vic tOria this week was shipment of gold bullion aggregating about S125, 100000 in gold bullion This does not look like all the gold in the Nome section has been mined out. Nome was the largest gold producing section in Alaska last year and the year before, and we prophecy that this year will beat the last years output This is the kind of advertising that pays Nome or any other camp that can produce the gold. Everyone should boost these gold shipments in their letters to friends outside and show that Nome is not dead but very much alive, instead of trying to keep the matter of gold shipments secret just because some insurance company or ex- press company has real gold to insure, which makes money for them as well as others.

RICHMOND, Va, Jan. 22-De-
spite the crying needs due to the
unemployment situation and the
drought of 1880, relief measures
have been virtually sidetracked
by the State legislature to give
way to congressional redistricting
proposals, repeal of the short
ballot and measures relating to
salary cuts among State employees
and public school teachers.
The first redistricting bill Is
sponsored by Senators N. B. Early
of Ruckersville, T. Russell Gather

Inspiration for the architecture
of the White House is traced to
the ancient temple-palace of Tell
Halaf, a recently excavated city
of Upper Mesopotamia, by DR..
Baron Mox Won Oppenheim, noted
German archaeologist.
Baron Won Oppenheim, who is
in Washington to lecture to
day at the Freer Gallery, believes
the White House and all colonial
architecture Is derived from the
Greek. and Grecian art had its
inception in the halls of Tell
Halef, built some 5000 years ago.
The baron was a member Of
the German embassy staff here
in 1902-4, but deserted diplomacy

JUDGE LEN|ENT
To PEDDLER

Ignorance of the law may be
no excuse, but with Police Court
Judge Charles w. Woodward in
Rockville, good intentions have
influence.
This was shown yesterday
when he dismissed a charge of
driving on dead tags against Sol
Cohen, of Brooklyn, N. Y, and
suspended sentence on a charge
Of peddling without a license.
Cohen, who had 1881 District
tags, proved he had made sp-
plication for his new plates.
Judge woodward said he believed
the defendant did not realize he
was violating the Maryland law.

has conducted the greater part
Of his researches.
An interesting resemblance be.
tween the art of the people OF
Tell Halef and the Mayan In
dians Of the United States leads
him to believe there may have
been some cultural connection
between the two countries at one
time. He says:
There is no inter-racial con-
nectiOn but it Is well known
that at one time Alaska and
Asia were in contact with each
other and there may have been
some adventurous soul Of old

ROW At. DANCE
ENDS IN COURT
1t all started at Rockville

It all started at a Rockville
dance.
The wife of Clarence Jones,
colored, was approached by a
young man who wanted to dance
with her. When she refused he
pushed her aside.
Clarence, though separated
from his wife, resented this &C.

ate struck Mime Mason, also col
ored. Clarence was stabbed in
the ensuing Scuffle.
Judge Woodward, of Rockville,
dismissed the case against Jones,
saying that he had been suffi-
