known of Alaska "Sourdoughs," and

Alaska Still Has
Wide Open
Camp
The only wide open camp in Al
aska just now is l)ime Creek. Keek
ing wi'ii consolidated drunkenness,
gambling and dance tails, the row
camp k.is dug itself a nice little
ulcer on the tributary of the Koy
uk, says the Nome NNuggeu
A little log cabin shelters tie
game/Ts, where the gamblers have
« inch old time and rake»ffs mount
as high as three hundred a night,
furruicy run* short and checks en
dorsed by a dozen different people,
mudstained and tobacco odored pass
for tht chipu when the gold and sil
ver fail. 11'a.ngiggl, black jack., pok
er or such other games as separate
a man playfully from his money axe
to be had for the a^^king. The o&mp
is without a deputy, and when the
commissioner shows up in the vicin
•y everything is innocent looking.
But that's not all. They have a
Monte Carlo, where a couple of
ladies have initiated the lights of
dance hall, popularly known as the
Dime into the terschorean &nd| other
bacchanalian mysteries that may be
referred to only &$ generalisations.
Here th* tyro reaches that stage of
sociability wherein he is willing to
whoop it up. and whoop, it up he
does, with the help of the steers
man who guides him to the cabin
where the real games are played.
The delightful condition of thing*
has iaised 'he mischief with the
camp, but some of the sharks are &
lot rlcher by their visit and it is
a pretty prosperous field. No gold
mine along the deposits of Dime
creek have produced the wealth that
that c-abin has returned to those
who nave operated the games,.and
the figursu are prodigious as to the
limits played. It is evidently no
place for pikers. One man lost
high as fourteen hundred, another
four hundred and another% couple
of hundred within a shoit time. If
this keeps up the green cloth will
be able to buy steam yachts. So too
with the ladies. A recent fair one
from the direction of St, Michaels
Js said to have amassed a fortune
in the dance hall, and put her sis
terhood from otherwheres In the
shade.
It's a pretty easy camp with the
lid off and the limit throws into
the creek. That's the statement
of fact which returning DImeltea
briny to Nome.
