Wholesale Thievins From Suice Boxes on tn
Rich Gold Producing Creeks.

Dawson. Aug. S0.-A number Of big
robber!es have been carried on by thieves
on the gold producing creeks back Of
Dawson this month. They have com.
mitted seven big thei,s. taking in the
aggregate more than 5000. OF this
all save $500 was in gold dust taken from
the sluice boxes Of big mines.
The police have been utterly unable SO
far to accomplish anything definite. One
arrest was made on suspicion. but the
case failed in the preliminary hearing
1t is thought perhaps that the robberie>
are being made by an organized gang
working on some regular system. 1t is
"A strange feature that nearly ali the >luice
box robberies have been committed At
midnight while the night crews OF min
ers have been AT their midnight meals.
The ordinary custom OF the camp has
been followed in leaving the sluice boxes

WILL USE TENINO STONE.
Substituted for Chuckanut in New State Capitol
Building.

Olympia. Sept. 6.-This morning the
capitol commission gave Contractor Goss
authority to use Tenino stone instead OF
Chuckanut for the two upper stories OF
the addition on the capitol building.
The present building is constructed OF
Chuckanut stone. and there is enough OF
il here and on the way to build the new
addition walls to the height OF the first
floor.
In authorizing the change to Tenino
stone the dilemma that presented itself
to the commission was the construction
OF two-colored building or no building
at all. The contractor and the stone
men had come to a hopeless deadlock
and the contractor notified the commits.
sion that unless he was permitted to
change to Tenino stone for the balance
OF the building he would consider his
contract void. would discharge his men
and retire from the work.
