JERMYN AND MAYFIELD.
Interesting News from One of Our
Townsmen at Cape Nome Strike
at Silk Mill Other Trotes.
Thomas Boundy, of Jermyn, has re
ceived a letter from his son, Charles,
who Is at the much-lalked-of Capo
Nome. The letter was postmarked at
Nome Dec. 10, so that It has been more
than three months en route. It con
tains much Interesting mutter, from
which wo are privileged to publish the
following: "Winter is fairly upon us,
but thus far it has not been, here at
Nome ut least, an Arctic winter by any
means. The temperature has not yet
been lower than ten degrees below zero.
I am still wearing my leather shoes,
and have worn nothing but summer
clothes thus fur. It is the same old
story of a new country. You can place
no reliance on the tales of old-timers
concerning a new country.
The country all around heie Is being
stampeded nnd staked for hundreds of
miles In all directions, except, of course,
the sea, and even that Is receiving
some attention at the hands of eager
prospectors. One hundred feet from
shore they are cutting through the
Ice and sinking Into the sands of the.
sea. The days now are dark and short,
almost always cloudy, but no wind
prevails such as we had heard of be
fore landing here. Prices of provisions
have come down a little, so that wo
can live for about $50 a month each.
Thanksgiving day wo had no turkeys,
chickens nor cranberries, but we bad
native pharmlgan and plum 'pudding."
Chailes owns a one-third Interest In
the Nome News, the first newspaper
established at Cape Nome. Of this en
terprise ho writes thus: "The News Is
Nome's pioneer paper, but not, as wo
stated in our columns some time ago,
the paper published nearer the north
pole than any other paper. You re
member reading once of the Eskimo
Bulletin, published once a year at Port
Clarence, about one hundred miles
north from here. It Is 'smaller than
ours, is edited by a missionary and
printed by natives. Hut we have the
best and most prosperous paper In
Northern Alaska, and we always have
news enough to fill It. With the first
boat in the spring wo will have a
first class plant and stock for a semi
weekly paper, and then, if the field
wurrants a dally, a flying trip to Seat,
tie will have to be made for the neces
saries. We are not going to be sec
ond to anyone.
About fifteen of the girls employed at
the local silk mill quit work yester
day morning ns a protest against the
appointment of a now forewoman. The
latter has been employed at an out
of town mill, and the strikers were
disappointed, because one of their own
number had not been given the posi
tion. As a consequence of the strike
the mill Is considerably handicapped,
but few of the hands being at work.
It is hoped, however, that the trouble
will be of short duration and that the
difficulty will be amicably adjusted.

A local institute wns held at the bor
ough graded school building on Satur
day afternoon. A number of teachers
as well as directors, patrons and pu
pils of the different schools were In
attendance. The Institute was called
to order at l."0 p. m., by Chairman
Prof. E. B. Rogers, with Miss Inez
Blessing acting as secretary. The
first thing on the programme was the
singing of that grand old Hymn, "Come
Thou Almighty King," led by Prof. R.
H. Martin, with Miss Bessie Bucking
ham presiding n.t tho organ, after
which the Institute was favored with
a most excellent paper on "Primary
Beading," by Miss Inez Blessing, In
which she clearly demonstrated tho
fact that sfle was handling a subject
with which she was thoroughly ac
quainted, and that the little ones who
were entrusted to her care to be taught
this very Important branch, would
surely be started right, before going
ahead. The next number on the pro
gramme, which was a paper on "Order
In the School room," was by Superin
tendent J. C. Taylor. He said his Idea
of an orderly school agreed with the
definition given by Colonel F. W. Par
ker, who said, "order in school limits
the attention of the pupil to the work
In hand," and unythlng that distracts
tho attention of the pupil from
his work makes a disorderly school,
etc. Superintendent Taylor's paper
should prove a rare hel and Inspira
tion to every teacher who heard It.
After a short discussion on this sub
ject. Miss Viola Gonzales gave a very
Interesting' talk on "Busywork," and
she had at the request of tho County
superintendent, brought along samples
of the work done by iter primary
grades, consisting of darning, hemmed
handkerchiefs and fancy work, which
proved that In her school tho little
hands wero kept busy and thereforu
found no time for mischief. After the
song "Auld Lang Syne," by the Insti
tute, Professor It. H. Martin read a
very Interesting and carefully pre
pared paper on "The Ideal Nation and
Its Dependence Upon Moral Training
for Its Realization." He said, In open
ing: "In this paper I wish to discuss
the necessity for morul training to aid
tho student In determining his couno
In life, fixing high Ideals and support
ing him In their pursulti" In closing
he said, in tho words of John Buskin,
"Education does not mean teaching
people to know what they do not know;
It means to tench them to behave as
they do not behave. It Is not teach
ing tho youth' the shapes of the letters
and the tricks of numbers aud then
leaving them to turn their literature
Into lust and their arithmetic Into
raquery." Tho next thing on the pro
gramme, was a talk on "Local deog.
raphy," by Mr. I. S. Turner, of Spring
Brook, who exhibited some very skil
fully drawn maps and proved that he
was thoroughly conversant with his
subject. This was followed by a song
entitled "The Little Red School House,"
by the Institute, Last, but not by any
means least on the programme, was
the beautifully worded paper of Miss
Dougher, of tho Forest Hill school,
on "How to Secure Truthfulness In
the School Room." A short discussion
followed tho reading of this paper, In
which several took part, after which
the Institute closed. The teachers In
attendance were: Miss Vail, Miss Mas-
