R. F. McRae, better known Gs''SlinI" McRae, end ROoerick Mcdonald 70 ,turned yesterday from a mushing trip to the Norton hay country. They left Nome on December 13, last, having re- .ceived information of a strike of some magnitude in.thal section.
 Mr. McRae, when seen yesterday. re- fused to talk of the exact locality of the strike, but it is probably the one to which reference has already been made sby the NUGGET Both placer and quartz has been found say the wise ones, in .the section drained by the .QuOick and .other rivers which empty into Norton sbay. This includes she district presided .over by Frank w. .Dunham as United States recorderand commissioner.
 McRae and Mcdonald experienced a hard trip, being caught in blizzard. They were forced to go into camp, where they remained four days and a .half without food. Their dogs jared even worse, for the poor animals were eight days without food of any kind, four days of which time they were buried in tine snow. The-wind blew a perfect hurricane and the mercury dropped out of sight.
 -"I would not make the trip aga'n under the same conditions for $30.D0O, y said Mr. McRae, yet ] would not take $2O 900 for my prospects.
 McRae states that William Walton, known in Nome as Billy the Pig" is believed to have perisbed on or about January , on Norton bay. Walton left Moons road house, at I>aac's Point, on the morning of January for Cooper's, at the mouth of Bonanza. The mercury was very nearly 60 below, aud he has mot since been heard from.
 McDonald's right ear was badly frozen and it is still very sore. Both .men will. ,return to the scene of the strike.

Sea Was Not There.

Mr. Picard also discovered anotha or interesting fact which goes to show that the sea never at any time SO far as these deposits show. covered what is now the tundra back tO the hills as has been generally supposed.
 After an elevation of 60 feet i, reached back on the tundra there are no indications of sea sand. Below the 60 foot elevation sea sand is found. According to Alr Picard's opinion the tundra deposits are the result of glacial action. Instead of the ,6aa reced4ng through some other reason, it has been forced back a cOn1idera ble distance by glacial action which tore apart the mountains back from the coast. grnu- ing them down and rounding them off as they now appear, and the gold con tained in tbe quartz of the mountains Is now found deposited in the tundra. and the gold Is therefore moro evenly distributed than it would otherwise have been.

Unlimited quantities of gold lie con cealed beneath the surface of the vast tundra plains which skirt Boring Coast.
 Practical investigation has proved this. and there is scarcely d shadow of a doubt thatifrOm the tus,dra fplaips of this section hundreds of millions of dol lars in gold will be mined in the years to come.
 This is the statement made to representative of the NUGGET by J. |. Picard, mining engineer of high standing who has been in Nome since the spring of 1900. Mir. Picard repre- sents d. New York syndicate, one of its members being George D. Roberts, d veteran mining man well a4atl favor ably known in all the mining states of the Union.
 Ever since the summer of 1900 in vestigations of the tundra deposits have beea quietly prrsued under Mr. Pcard's direction. He made no noise about it: in fact the work that he has been doing has been kept extremely quiet. Mr. Picard is man of affairs and he wished to prove for himself whether the tundra contained gold in paying quantities. This he has done and the results of his Ia bOrs are, as he expresses it, startli9g.
 And so they are, as this story will show. The report of his work has been forwarded to his company and when a NUGGET representative saw him the other dsy Mr. Picard said:
