narrow escapes from cyclones in the last

frail structure. VIM. Olney's house col
lapsed-the cheese factory was scattered

Fargo Argus: F. B. Chapman, for.
merly cashier of the bank at Thompson,
arrived home yesterday, having came
direct from his mining claims at Sun
rise, Alaska. He exhibited several bags
of gold as evidence that he had been
doing some good work there, and ex-
pressed himself as highly pleased with
the prospects. He is an old hand at the
business, having been mining in the
Black Hills in 1876, going from there to
Bismarck. He left for that country
about a year and a half ago and has now
come back to get his family, whom he
will take back with him. Speaking OF
that part of the country, he states that
there is no suffering Of any kind, but
that not all who are making money. 1t
is no poor mans country, and to be sue
cessful one must have had experience
and money. In the Copper River coun-
try he says there has been much suffer
ing by lack of food and scurvy. His
family is now located in Minneapolis, but
the party will return to Alaska during
the early part of August.
