NOME. July s0.--As the middle of the
season approaches the mining outlook for
this distric. is looking more and more
promising. the discovery Of rich pay In
benches on Anvil and Dexter creeks hav-
ing stimulated prospectors to their best
efforts. Every day reports Of new strikes
como in. and It IL now confidently pre-
dicted that when the rainy season adj
mits of the opening UP OF claims many
creeks will be found to pay as well as
Anvil and Dexter. Best of all is the as
surance now felt that winter work can
be extensively carried on.
The development Of tho benches has
just begun. Mining men say that In this
district prospects have been found which
would indicate II to be richer than the
KIondike. beside being of so much great
err extent.
On low divide between the head OF
Nakkila gulch on the Anvil side. and
Grouse creek on the Dexter side. at least
Atty shafts are now being sunk to bed
rock. and many 50 cent pans have been
taken out What Is known az the Loring
bench claim, In Nakkila gulch. is rich al
most beyond conception. Pans worth 81
and s. are common. and as high as 81 100
has been taken out In one day with n
rocker. For this claim SO. 900 was refused
last week.
Other bench claims on the divide be-
tween Anvil and Dexter are equally prom
Using. Bedrock Is struck at depth of
about forty feet. the ground being frozen
for about nine feet On Erickson bench

at the head of Grouse creek. a tributary
of Dexter. Ave feet OF pay has been struck
at depth of fifty-two feet. II averages
10 cents and Is cents to the pan This
bench will be extensively worked this
winter.
To accoun, for this unexpected deposit
of gold on the benches the theory Is ad-
vanced that an old river channel runs
across the watershed which now separates
the Nome and Snake rivers. The entire
section drained by the numerous creeks
and gGlches which have their sources on
either side OF the watershed Is being thor
oughiy prospected.

ANOTHER MAMMOTH SKELETON.



Special Correspondence Post
NOME July 30.--During the voyage to
Nome, number OF passengers on the
Robert Dollar discovered the remains OF a
giant mastodon near the southeast cane
OF St Lawrence. A party left the shin
to Investigate the character OF the re-
mains. and discovered that the skeleton
was In a remarkable state OF preservation.
The skull was In good condition, and was
ten feet long. while the mammoth ribs
thirty-efght inches In diameter. curved
into the air to height of at least eighteen
feet. The skeleton was about eighty feet
long.
The discoverers say that enough Of the
original bones remain to make repro-
duction easily possible. and express the
hope that the various portions might be
collected and shipped TO some OF the
great museums OF the United States.
The passengers also explored some dis
lance inland. and found the remains OF
a small village. constructed on the Eski-
mo plan. In one OF the huts family OF
