SWAMP CREEK DISTRICT.
a Newspaper Correspondent Rehorts His
Investigations.

a correspondent of the Seattle Post
lntelligencer who was sent to the
swamp Creek district. near Mount
Baker, to Investigate the reports of
discoveries of gold quartz, which re-
ports stated assayed as high as $40, 900
To the ton, has returned, says a dis
patch and sums up his Investigations
as follows:
"On August 23rd last, Jack Post dis
covered n ledge of white quartz on
SAD mountain. In the debris at the
foot of the cliff was very large
amount of quartz which unmistakabiy
came from the ledge. When pieces of
this quartz was broken up with ham.
mer, considerable percentage of thin
lake gold was seen, with an average
OF about one color in the place where
the fracture was made Post and his
associates, Lambert and Van Valken-
burg. located forthwith three claims on
the ledge. Four cross leads We're also
discovered by two claims.
Selected specimens assayed as high
as Sl,5OO a ton. Lambert and his assoc
GATES about two weeks ago made
known their discoveries and the result
OF their assays. and the rush to the
new fields commenced.
Since that time there have been dis
covered two other small lodges OF the
same character of quartz. All of these
ledges are of white quartz; from all of
them specimens can be selected which
show specks of gold where fractured,
and from all of them assays can be
had of any desired magnitude. depend
ent solely upon the relative size OF the
pieces of quartz to be assayed as com
pared with the speck of gold which
appears on each piece.
Claims have been located since, COW
ering practically every foot of the
mountains in the immediate vicinity of
these discoveries at and without the
slightest surface indications of the ex-
istence of any ledge or of any mineral
lied ore in them. Not one dollars
worth of development work has been
done on claim in hte districts, and
not single drill has been stuck in 1t,
and not ashot fired.
Aside from these groups of claims |
referred to above, which cover every |
inch of free milling quartz yet discov- |
cred, there is not n claim located in |
the Swamp Creek section which is |
known to contain mineral of any |
value, and the actual value of these |
quartz lodges Is a matter which can
only be determined by actual develop
ment work, and by thorough mill
test of rock from all the exposed por-
tlon of the lodges"

Placer Ground which Shows Plenty of
Coarse Gold Nuggets,

Charles Lockermnn was in the city
yesterday from Pearl and reported one
OF the richest strikes ever made in
the camp, says the Boise Statesman.
This time 1t is placer ground that has
given up its hidden treasures. While
the banks of the creek have been
more or less worked for some time, the
miners have never reached bed rock
until lately. During the past week
dirt taken from bed rock has shown
coarse gold, and nuggets ranging from
the size of grain of wheat to that of
bean, have been plentiful
This placer ground extends along the
creek right through the town and a
mile and half below. All the ground
has been located and the men are
working as much ms the water SUNNY
VIII admit. The richest spot seems to
