up enough gold IN month to pay for
their claims and still have a good sum
left over.
When the men arrived here they
found the United States mint closed for
the day, and so they carried their sacks
of gold to the Office of Selby's smelling
works. They were weather beaten and
roughly dressed, but the spectators for
got their appearance when these men
began to produce sacks of gold dust
ranging from $1,000 to $4,000 in value
Some of the sacks were regular buck
skin bags, well made; others were of
canvas, black and grimy from long
handling with dirty fingers. AS fast
as the bags were weighed they were
ripped open with sharp knife and the
contents were poured out on the broad
counter. Then some of the miners
produced from bundles and coat peck
cts glass fruit jars and jelly tumblers
filled with gold dust and covered with
writing paper carefully secured with
Irvine. 1t seems that the supply of
gold bags ran out and this was the only
way to bring the treasure down.
When all the gold dust was poured
out it made nice heap, On which the
spectators gazed as though fascinated;
but the smelling men calmly scraped
it up and cast the yellow dust into a
big pot, which was wheeled into the
smelling room.
A letter from one of the officials of
the Alaska Commercial Company, at
Circle City, gives this account of the
great rush to the new diggings.
"The excitement on the river is in
describable, and the output of the new
Klondike district is almost beyond be-
lief. Men who had nothing last fall
are now worth fortune. One man has
worked forty square feet of his claim
and is going out with $4,000 in dust.
One-quarter of the claims are now sell
ing at from $4,000 to $4,000. The es-
innate of the district is given as thir-
teen square miles. with an average of
100000 to the claim, while some are
valued as high as 100000 each. A
number of claims have been purchased
for large sums on few months credit,
and the amount has been paid out of
the ground before it became due.
AT Dawson sacks of gold dust are
thrown under the counter in the stores
for safekeeping. The peculiar part of
it is that most of the locations were
made by men who came in last year,
Old.timers not having had faith in the
indications until the value of the re,
gion was assured, whereupon price
jumped so high that they could not get
in. Some of the stories are so fabulous
am afraid to repeat them for fear of
being suspected of the infection.
"There are other discoveries reported
a little beyond and on the Stewart
River, but these have not vet been veri-
fled. Labor is SIS day and board,
with 100 days work guaranteed; so you
can imagine how difficult it is TO hold
employees. Men who were looking for
bits last year are now talking and
showing thousands, and the air is full
of millions If the reports are true, it
is the biggest placer discovery ever
made in the world, for though other
diggings have been found quite rich in
spots, no such extent of dirt has been
known which prospected and worked
so high right through"

Cabinet Organs Necessary.

X. G. journal: In the eyes of a
Kansas farmers wife cabinet organ
performs the same fashionable mission
which red lamp shade does in the
parlor Of her city sister. The first
duty which falls upon farmer who
has prospered in the slightest degree
is to buy cabinet organ for his wife
and daughters. He is forced into 1t
with the same desperate disregard for
expenses which marks the city man
whose family is out for social con.
quest, and many apoor Kansas farmer
can trace his downfall to that period
when his women goaded him into the
extravaganza Of cabinet organ.
These few staccato thoughts were
suggested by a deal which was made
at Abilene the other day, by which an
organ agent possessed himself Of one
bull, two cows, two pigs, eighteen
hens and greyhound pup in return
for a cabinet organ which he placed
in the house Of nearby farmer.
