RICH STRIKES NEAR NOME.
Many Fortunes Quickly Made at Topu'
kuk and Vicinity.

Many Fortunes Quickly Made at Topu'
kuk and Vicinity.
More complete and definite returns
have been received concerning the rich
strike at Topukuk, ffty-fve miles below
Nome, Alaska. There seems no reason to
doubt that this is one Of the greatest
strikes ever made in that vicinity-as i'm
portant as the strike at Nome before.
Though the discovery at Topukuk is of
comparatively recent date, many have
struck it rich already, and several indi-
vidual fortunes running as high as S2o,-
600 have been taken out. Parties of two
or three, working with ordinary rockers,
it is said, are taking out 81 900 day. 1t
is reliably estimated that one stretch OF
beach 600 feet long by an average of
ninety feet in width, has yielded $475,O 600
within the past few weeks.
