the gold rush came in 1899. the little

called Anvil City, adopted the name
of the cape, II miles to the east.

boards to combat the almost bottom

town sprang up. There has always
been an autumn exodus from Nome

the towns life when the proportion
of fair-weather citizens was large.

on the north coast of the icy, storm

circle, and is frozen in and showed
in for about seven months of the
year. At times the snow drifts up
to the caves of the houses. Since

industry, depends on the use of wa

water congeals. Nome's last boat
usually leaves for Seattle about Oc-
tober 10, and none arrives until the
middle of the following June.
"Gold was discovered in one of the
creeks inland from the site of Nome,
in the autumn of 1898. When the
ice released its grip on the Boring
coast the following spring, thousands
of gold-seekers rushed in. Then came
the astounding discovery by United
States soldier that he could pan gold
from the sands of the beach.

News of this paradise for the
poor miner, where it was not even
necessary to file claims, spread rap
idly over the world even in those
radioless days. Miners in other
Alaska settlements and western
United States, dropped their picks,
store clerks quit their jobs, seamen de-
serted their ships, gamblers left their
old haunts, laborers laid down their
tools, and even women left comfort

the Nome sands.
''In two years Nome became the

habitants. They came from all parts
of the world-a colorful group who
emblazoned Nome's name indelibly

Life in Nome was at once glamor-
