Ireland has fairly won the right to
the wearing of the green. AS one
might say in the language of the
country, all noted Englishmen are
Irishmen. Gen Kitchener is Irish,
born on the coast of Kerry; Field
Marshal Roberts is Waterford man.
His title is Lord Roberts of Water
ford and Kandahar. Gen. White is
an Antrim man, French is from Ros-
common, and Kelly Kenny from
Glare. The minister of war, Lord
Lansdowne, is Kerry man, and Mr.
Wyndham, under secretary, is a
grandson of Lord Edw. Fitzgerald.

FROM CAPE NOME.
Reports of Ophirean Wealth in AL
askan Sands.


Nome is waking up to spring ac-
tivity, and prospecting will be done
this season on wholesale plan.
The city already has a population Of
5000. An expert fer the Seattle
Mining Record has just reported
visit to the town and the surround
ing districts in which he says:
''The more | see of this country
the bigger seems the opportunity to
make money. | had 1t lately dem
onstrated that the tundra for miles
bids fair to be as good as the beach
The tundra was all beach once and
is now filled in from three to five
miles back to the hills. 1t looks
like the biggest mining proposition
on earth. This is not one-year
stand. Bering sea will be the Bal
tic sea of the west, and mining
towns will dot it shores for POO
miles. 1t is difficult for one who
has not been here to realize what the
prospect is. Stalking of claims is
very active. Dog teams may be
seen hurrying in every direction.
Cape York and the Bonanza district
seem to be the favorite ground at
present. Every one is determined
to have claim somewhere. Wheth-
er there is sufficient pay in these dis
tricts to warrant the expense of
trip of eighty miles to one place AID
forty to the other, is the question.
1t Is certain that coarse gold has
been found in both. Schemes fer
obtaining gold from the beach san6s
at Cape Nome are as leaves in tie
forest. Amalgamaters, patent rock
ers, gold saving sluice boxes and
similar devices innumerabe are on
display in Seattle shop windows,
and III the workshops of inventors
all over the land are yet others.
They run all the way from chem
ical device for saving the gold from
sea water to deep sea dredger for
scooping mp the gold-laden sands
from the bottom of the ocean 1T
Nome Near low water mark bed
rock is reached at a depth varying
from eight to eighteen inches; back
toward the tundra the depth to bed
rock runs from four to six feet.
There are three distinct kinds of
bedrock, first sort of quicksand-
clay formation near the sea; next a
gray sand clay bedrock, and, third,
a blue-clay gelatinous kind which
has a strong odor somewhat resemb.
ling bilge water. The richest de-
posts are found on h. latter bed
rock. 1t is mistake to suppose
that ruby sand is distributed every
where, 1t is not, and some of the
richest sands do not carry the ruby
variety at all. One thing is certain,
the beach from Cape Nome to Port
Clarence, a distance of 70 miles, is
gold bearing. The gold either
came from the interior or was cast
up by Neptune in his angry moods.
