BIG SHIPMENT
 BOOKSIN NOME
 STILL HELD UP

There were about eleven or twel- we cases of books sent into Nome on the last boat from Seattle, to take the place of the libraries which were destroyed in the fire. The Seat tie Chamber of Commerce sent the books in, which were gathered from many different sources, the public libraries in Seattle, private dona- tions and collections.
 The shipment was consigned to A. W. Kay, but MT. Kay is not here. He was formerly employed as assay CT by the Miners and Merchants Bank of Nome. The intention of stripping the books to Nome was to supply public demand for reading matter.
 Efforts are now being made to re- lease the shipment so that the books will become available to the public as soon as possible. The Alaska Steamship Co.,, local agent Jas. P. Daly is attempting to ascertain where MT. Kay is at present and see if the books, which are now lodged in the Nohalico warehouse, may be released for public reading.
