THE RICH MEN OF CAPE MONIES COUNTRY
They Have Made Their Mans in Very Short Time and Have
Wisely Put Them Away For Use in the Future
Some Interesting Facts.

We shall soon have many of the sudden
ly rich in this country. The returning
miners tell great tales of Nome and the
money there. With luck it is possible to
get rich in a season. Without it wealth
does not come in Alaska any more than in
other ends of the world
Yet luck is easily struck"
A few days ago a well known man re-
turned from Alaska with many tales of
princely fortunes. 1.-THE way the newly
made rich men up in Alaska live and
spend their money is, in some instances,
even more interesting than the ways they
came quickly to have princely incomes
said he.
For instance, there is Sandy Flaherty,
the king of the placers on Dominion Creek
in the Klondike country. I suppose that
any one in Dawson would say that Sandy s
wealth is upward of 100000, and is increas-
ing by $4,000 year. Four years ago he
was on chain gang on the streets of
Omaha
Suddenly the news came down the Yu-
kon River that wonderfully rich gold
dggings had been struck in the Klondike
creeks, at the headwaters of the Yukon.
"A score of men at st. Michael started at
once in little skiff up the river to Daw-
son. Flaherty, who had left Omaha, was
among them He had but 81 in his pocket
and the clothes on his back when he
started for the Klondike gold fields. He
cooked for his comrades and did general
work to pay his passage.
ARRIVED at Dawson. Sandy Fbaherty got
a job as cook in a rough sawed pine barn
that answered as boarding house. His pay
was $50 a week and his own board and
lodging. One of the men who came to the
boarding house for meals was an original
Klondiker. He had two claims in Domin-
ion Creek One day he was i'll and Sandy
nursed him to health. To reward Sandy
the old fellow gave him the poorer of his
two claims.
SANDY gave up his job as cook and be-
gan gold mining the next day. He worked
day and night, scarcely stopping to sleep
two hours out of twentyfour, SO anxious
was he to know what sort of claim he
owned. Before the cold weather set in, in
October, 1897, he had dug down to bedrock
on his creek bench claim, and was panning
gold at the rate of 50 and $3.50 pan. He
never spent a dime unnecessarily, and
early Klondikers still tell how hard he
worked with pick and shovel and pan.
Then he got capital put up sluice on his
claim, and built a $1,000 cabin. The old
