THE KLONDIKE GOLD FIELDS.

mated, lie along or Immediately about
the waters, whether direct or tribu-
tary, of the Klondike, an eastern af-
fluent of the Yukon, which discharges
into the father of northern waters"
at the site of Dawson. The Klondike
itself, whose upper waters are as yet
only imperfectly known, seemingly
carries but little gold, the main guam
tity of the precious metal and that
which has made the region famous be-
ing contributed by one of its southern
arms, the Bonanza, and by tribu-
tary of this, the Eldorado. bunker
creek, draining a mountainous dis
trict several miles to the eastward of
the Bonanza, and like it southern
aflluent of the Klondike, finds prom
Use of a wealth but little if at all in
ferior to that of the Bonanza. In a
broader or more popular sense the
hlondike region not only embraces
the special district so designated in
the books of the gold commissioner,
but also the entire tract which heads
up to the sources of the streams that
have before been mentioned, and
thereby, with Quartz, Sulphur and
Dominion creeks as tributaries of In
dian river, takes in the greater por-
ton of the Indian river mining dis
trict, and with Baker, Reindeer and
other creeks on the west, the official
districts indicated by these names as
well. With this limitation the region
roughly defines an area about 40 miles
square, whose northern boundary lies
somewhat to the north of the sixty
fourth parallel Of latitude, and on the
west reaches to within about 80 miles
of the international boundary, the
one hundred and forty first meridian
of west longitude.-Prof. Angelo
Heilprin, in Appletons' Popular Sci
ence Monthly.
