millionaire and will soon return. lie
went to the klondike three years ago
with 3OOS A waive of ill fortune
brought him wealth. Two miners had
staked out claim on FL Dorado Creek.
They heard Anderson had money, ana
not having sufficient means to begin
work went to Anderson and offered to
sell Anderson refused to buy, so the
owners of the apparently poor claim
Drocee1ed to make Anderson drunk.
The strangers made out deed for
their claim, turned it over to Anderson
and relieved him of his money. When
he discovered the action he was bro
ken hearted. Finally he concluded to
make the best of his hard lot, and went
to work on the claim without hopes.
He sunk shaft and month later he
cashed out zoos. The men who
forced him to buy then demanded a
fourth interest. Anderson secured
help. The first year he cleared 24O,OOOS
aud the next 25O,OO0S and the mine
promises better results this year. John
Berger and MIcCreary worked a claim
next to AnderSou's and found nothing.
They then went to work for Anderson
at 6S per day.-EXchange.

One CT the Richest Strikes.

One of the most exciting and pleasing
items of mining news which has ever
been received in Juneau has just come
from Berners Bay. We have the report
from a most trustworthy authority and
can therefore vouch for it entire truth
fulness The Ala ka Gold Mining
Com pany of Indiana, one of the best
known mining corporations operating
in Alaska, and which has large interests
in the territory. has within the last day
or two met with an exceptional run of
good fortune. At Bprners bay the
company has for number of months
and at a large outlay of capital been eX-
perimeltilg with a quartz propO sition.
The "uever venture, never win motto
has proved "A success. 1t yenturei and
won. At a depth of seven hundred
feet vertical aud nine hundred feet III
the tunnel quartz ledge has been
struck which is undoubtedly one of
the richest ever opened in Alaska. 1t
assay showed lO4.745 per ton. The par
ties representing this mine in Juneau
are Colonel Darrow and II. Il. Snyder.
They were naturally greatly elated
with this stroke of good fortune. This
l. only one evidence of what capital,
enterprise and scientific mining can
na,,,n,,I;-E -, l,e
We believe tha, all over this territory
there are hundreds of equally rich
auriferOus deposits which await de-
velOpment, and that the coming year
will witness the greatest boom in the
quartz mining industry which this or
any other country has ever eXper-
fenced. Our citizens are receiving
communications almost daily from the
business men of the east stating that
other tourist parties to Alaska during
this past summer there is an almost
unlimited amount of eastern capital
ready for investment in the develop
ment of the mining industry in this
district. We do not yet know the pos
oibilities of our country. We are only
beginning to realize them.-Alaska
Miner
When an English court recently gave
the decision that the word mineral
included every substance which can be
got from underneath the surface of the
earth for the purpose of profit" the
decision was certainly in the interest
of the miner. But an American min,
ing editor, of large appropriate ability
objects to this definition of the term as
it possibly did not include potatoes, as
they can be got from underneath the
surface of the ground, but, unfortu
nately did not give better definition
of the word.-M. & NJ. Journal.
