A Mining Mans Opinion.

J. Sloan Johnson, the well known mining man of Council City, was in town this week. Mr. Johnson is oper- ating on Crooked creek, and he is thor oughly satisfied, not only with that section, but with Nome and other dis tricts. Like many other mining men, Mr. Johnson points to the small amount of work done on the different creeks. The country briStles with stakes, but when it comes to work it is not to be seen. Mr. Johnson is particularly pleased with Council and Bluff City districts, and he believes that the greatest amount of gold will be pro- duced from the benches. There are number. of old river channels that can be traced, he says, and yet, strange to say, few stakes are found upon them. The era of bench mining is just devel- opins, and in the next few years thou sands of paying bench mines will be in operation.

The Standard theatre management announces a grand French bal masque on Thursday evening, Sept. F. It is announced that 'Little Egypt" will appear in native costume and perform the ''disrobing act" before the audi ence. The audience surely will be de- lighted with the performance. and it is to be hoped that none of them will have chills and intermittent fever after the 'act," if it be successfully per formed. Added to the Little Egypt attachment,' it is announced that the French can can, also, it is presumed in native costume, will be in evidence, and that costumes will be furnished by the theatre' for four bits each. IL is cheap enough, and probably the management might be induced to throw in chromo.

UP THE YUK0N
 AS FAR AS EAGLE
Rampant Enjoying Sort of Boom, a New Rich Creek Having Been
 Discovered.

r.. H. Flagg, dep'ity collector of in- telnal revenue for the northern district of Alaska, has returned from trip up the Yukon as far as Eagle.
 All the river towns are showing signs of life, Mir. F'lagg says, and they are forging ahead. Rampant is the lead ing town on the river and is enjoying a sort of boom. Glen creek, tributary of the Panama, about 30 miles from Rampant, is showing mp well. A claim owned bv q AIr. Dillon seems to be enormously rich. From one to two feet from the surface one man shOveled in SIG per day; from two to three feet down $l22 per day was found, and from three to four feet, $226: and from four to five feet. $529 per day with about B feet to go to bedrock. The whole creek prospects well.
 The agricultural possibilities of the Yukon valley were surprise to Mir. Flagg. He travelled for a time with Mir. Georgesen, the agent of the agricultural department in Alaska, who was making a tour of the Yukon country. Mr. Georgensen will make an examination of the agricultural pos abilities of the Copper river country next year.
 At Eagle Mir. Flagg ate native new potatoes and green peas. Back of Eagle fine field of oats was ripening; and at Twelve-mile, back of Circle. one man has raised this year ten tons Oi potatoes. There is government agricultural experiment station Op. posite Rampant and the farm is sue cess. At Holy Cross Mission vegetable gardens were fourishing and flower gardens were in bloom.
 The people of Eagle and the Yukon country speak in the highest terms oi Judge Wickersham.
 Mir. Flagg attached the steamer Monarch for violating the internal revenue laws, in selling liquors, whole sale and retail, without having s license. The fine was paid and the vessel released.

Have Been Commenced in the
 Yukon Country
AND AT COOK INLET
The Beginning, It Is Supposed, of the Trans Alaskan Railroad Scheme, Which Includes Railroads Through This Section of Alaska.

The last issue of the NUGGET con tained tclcgraphic dispatch dated St. Paul, Aug. l. which stated that the 4 AlaskaSiberia railroad would be built. the Bank of France furnishing the cap ital. 1t was also stated that James J. Hill. of the Great Northern, would be interested in the project.
 Private letters received in Nome by the last mail confirm the report. A survey party left Denver, Col, recently for some point on the Yukon, the exact place not being stated, for the purpose of beginning the preliminary survey. In the party was Warren F.. Smith, an engineer well known in Nome. It also stated that the survey will be pushed with all possible rapidity and it is ex- pccted to be completed next year so far as the Alaska portion is concerned.
 The details of the project are not gen erally known, the first intimation that this road was to be built was published in q Tacoma paper few weeks ago and wa. subsequently published in the NUG- GET. The plan as will be remembered, embraces the construction of d railroad from Circle City to Nome and thence to Siberia and on to St. Petersburg. It is more than probable that a good many years will elapse before Boring straits see d railJOad train, but in time it will no doubt be seen.
 That the era of railroad building is about to begin i'll Northwestern Alaska is certain, and men in a position to know state positively that within the next two years large section of the Seward peninsula will be opened up by railroads
 A survey party is also said to be working towards the Yukon from liam ma bay, in the Cook inlet country.

GOOD CREEKS ON
 THE KOYUKUK
This Section, Once Pronounced No uood, Seems to Be Coming to
 the Front i'm Good Shape.

The Kovukuk country, which iff 1898 and 1899 got black eye, seems to De coming to the front. Prospecting done in the past year seems to have demon strated the fact that there are num- Der of good creeks in the Koyukuk sec tion. Among these are Myrtle and Slate, Emma and Gold, which, accord iny to reliable advices received by the NUGGET, are showing up very well.
 w. F. Burns, who has been in the Koyukuk district since June, 1900, ar rived from Emma creek on Sunday evening, having left that place August Is. He sr.ys that Gold creek has proved to be the banner creek th h'faf, tae round paying from $50 to $So to the shovel. Emma creek is also good, bu' 1t is hard to work, being filled with boulders. McNamer Bros. own gooo claim on this creek, and they are doing well, Other creeks which prospect fairly good are Clara and Porcupine Mir, Burns brought down a good-slzet poke with him. The gold is unlformi! coarse and of dark color. The suppl. of provisions, he believes, will be ampi' this year, the Northern Commercia Company having sent in large amour of supplies to Bergman. The creek being worked are probably fram' to o5 miles from Bettles. Ms~ Burns

M Fair Haven District That sAi Seems Promising.
lT PROSPECTS WELL
Discovered Last June By A. Patter- son and EnOs Thomas Is 22 Miles Long and Every Claim Has
 Been Located and nany Jumped.

Candle, the new creek in Fair Haven district, is said to be promising one. The creek was prOspected in June last, the original discoverers being Alex Patterson and Enos Thomas, who have been continuously in that section since ls99. Patterson and Thomas are backed by s. A. Pepper. of Nome, and the re- ports that he has received are most encouraging.
 H. 0. BlankenShip, who came down from Candle creek few days ago, as told in the last issue of the NCGGET, says that very little work had been done when he left there on August 23 Twelve or II men, however. were pre- pairing to sink holes and go to rocking Recorder Tom Moves had five men there with rockers.
 Candle creek is a tributary of the Keewalik river, which enters kOtZebue sound about 90 miles east of Deering. The creek is about 22 miles long and has as tributaries on the left limit Jump, Patterson, Willow, Thomas, Potato, Ptarmigan, Blank and Rain creeks. Candle enters the Keewalik F miles from it's mouth.
 Eighty claims have already been staked and many have been jumped. The tributaries on the left have also been staked, but little stalking appears to have been done on the streams on the right limit of Candle. Mr. Blanken- ship says that he prOspected Candle for 13 miles and "never got skunked.' " He located many claims on that and other creeks, and it is said he has bonded his interests to Humboldt Gates, who left last Saturday for that section.
 John Taylor, who came down from Good Hope a few days ago. says that the beach strike at the mouth of Alder creek was all right as long as it lasted. Sixty-tive dollars in all was rocked and banned, and the most diligent search thereafter failed to reveal any more pav pockets. Taylor also states that Candle creek prospects at the surface from 10 cents to 65 cents to the pan. Whether the pay dirt will hold out to bedrock is another question. At any rate the creek is a promising one, and something more definite will be known about it by the time the season closes.
 R. X. McArthur is also in town from Good Hope bay, where he has been since early last spring. At one time he was bitterly disappointed with the prospects, but later developments caused him to change his opinion. There are some good claims on Old Glory creek. Hannum promises well and so does Cunningham. The upper Inmachuk also contains some promising

TINE STRIKE ON
 THE INN0K0
The Find Said to Be Genuine Little Is Known as to It's Exact
 Location or Extent.

The strike on the InnOkO river Is said to be genuine one, although little is known as to it's extent. News of the reported strike was published in the NUGGET some time ago. The lnnoko river is tributary of the Yukon and has two mouths, one entering the Yukon just above kofereski, the other, which is said to be the main stream, enters the Yukon about 40 miles above Anvik.
 w. NJ. Williams recently received q letter stating that two men had come down from the InnOkO from the scene of the strike, about 23O miles up the river, and bought $2.OOO worth of pro. visions at Anvik, which they took back How many creeks have been found or how rich they are has not been learned The InnokO river according to the maps, parallels range of mountains called the Koiyuk. Mir. Williams will take cargo of general merchandise uE the Innoko on the steamer Los Angeles which will sail next week for the new diggings.
 The Innoko is said to be navigable fol small steamers for distance of 2Ot miles.
