NOMES DOG RACE All Alaskan Sweepstakes Dog Race to Be Run Soon OVER 800 MILE COURSE It Will Be a Big Event— Facts About Dog Racing Nome, Alaska, Feb. 2. —Nome’s annual dog race, the All-Alaska Sweepstakes. which has risen to be known as a sporting classic the world over, will be run this year over an 800 mile course, from Fairbanks to Nome, instead of the 400 mile route originally planned. This is the latest scheme of the sport lovers of Nome, who have offered a >IO,OOO prise to the winner and $5,000 more in smaller prizes. Last year the sweepstakes was run from Nome to Candle and return, a 400 mile jaunt, which occupied five days and was travelled by the racing dog in a fierce blizzard. The plan to race from Fairbanks to Nome would involve a ten days' trip over snow and ice, most of it on the frozen bosom of the Yukon. The trail i-> a good one, and barring storms, the journey might be made by the racers in nine days or a little less. The Fairbanks to Nome race, say the promoters, would be a more strictly All-Alaska affair. The new plan will also be a boon to many of the entries who have their teams in Seattle this winter, and will bring them north fn the spring for the race. To reach Nome they must take the trail at Valdez and come over the ice byway of Fairbanks. If the race is started at Fairbanks they will be saved part of their long (preliminary journey. All of the big dog owners of the north will have teams in the race, and many of them are conducting regular training stables here this winter, some having scores of dogs hem which to pick a team of ten or twelve for the big race. The date of the canine derby is April 1. The winning team, in addition to the big cash prize, will leave Nome on the first >boat in the summer and be exhibited at the Alaska-Yukon-Pa-cific Exposition in Seattle.
