How Gold Was Found ON T1londike.
The famous Bonanza creek and the
more famous Eldorado creek are very
like ordinary, everyday creeks in ap-
pearance-a little less civilized, per-
haps, than creeks to be met with in
the east. There are men living in Alas
ka to-day who have hunted moose over
these creeks dozens of times shut, as
the old miners say, there were no sur
face indications to lead anyone to sup
pose that gold might be found in them,
SO hundreds of miners passed by in
their boats, going to Forty Mile and
Circle City. The finding of such gold
is always an accident, and the old
hands are usually the last to realize
the truth. "Stick George" Cormack
and his squaw's relatives camped on
the creek for dinner one day, and some
how got to digging, and washed out
some gold. He went to Forty Mile and
made claim for discovery, and soon the
news spread like wi1dfire.-John Sid
ney Webb, in Century.

the very inspiration which has urged
