DAVENPORT DOTS

A Davenporter who is not insus-
ceptible to a case of real suffering
has been seeking assistance for
young colored man named viii Col
Inns. whom he noticed on the ferry
boat last night. The darkey has been
employed as a cook, he says, up in Da
kota, but was knocked out by an eX-
plosion of gasoline that left him bad
" burned across the upper part of his
body and head. He started for Knox
vile, Tenn, his old home, but lack of
hospital treatment put him in bad
condition by the time he had arrived
here Further lack of il will prob
ably cost him his life, so the gentle
man mentioned has been trying to get
him into the hospitals here, with the
usual difficulty on account of the
mans non-residence here. 1t is a case
that offers humane Davenporters
chance to help in what seems to be a
worthy cause.

AoNh'ns "ui,N i- litIt lS EluCii excitement here over the discovery made by Jack Filce, a few days ago, of rich ledge of gold quartz. The property Is located on Dry island, in Northern straits. The rock is very rich and it is believed that it will go as high as $2,OOO to the ton. The ledge is six feet wide, and the gold can be seen all through the rock with the naked eye. It is too early yet to tell how permanent the ledge is, on account of it's stringy nature.
 There are number of good quartz properties in this portion of Alaska, and we believe that some day in the near future, it will be known as rich mining country, as well as rich in fish and furs.
 There is q fine little iive-stamp mill at Uyak bay, on Kodiak island owned by Chas. Wineberg and partners. This mine has been worked for several years with good results, and the output will be much larger from now on.
 Mammoth group of claims on Uganuk island will eventually be a valuable property. The owners, J. Mcintyre and H. Wander, have done considerable development work the past year. They have run in tunnel, about 100 feet below the outcroppings, thence along the ledge for 20 feet and crosscut for 10 or 15 feet. The ore assays from 12 to 15 per cent. cop per, besides gold and other miner- als. The ledge is supposed to be 60 feet wide.
 There are several good claims located on Afognak island. Messrs. J. Falstad and II. Wick have four quartz claims (gold) in Malina bay. They have run tunnel so or 90 feet long and have done consider able work on the property. The ledge is between 40 and 30 feet wide. They also have two copper claims in Paramanoff bay. There are also several copper claims To- cated in Malina straits.
 On Shuyak island there are three copper claims located, and it is believed that the ore is very good.
 At Red river beach, on Kodiak island, a number of men gather the black sand, after heavy seas, and run it through rocker, and are making good wages. A. F..
 ELLAMAR LIvENING UP.
 Ellamar, July 27-Things are looking good here at present. All the men in the camp are work ing or can get work ut the mine. The management is contcmplat- ing putting on force of about 15O men as soon as possible. They have been hoisting ore for some time.
 The natives at Chenega brought in five sea otter skins recently and the Nuchek natives also captured the same number. These skins bring from $7O0 to 5000 each in the market, but the natives, who are Outfitted for their hunting trips by white men, only receive $3OOI and a portion of this must be taken out in provisions.
 NJ. V. Edwards is taking a hiyu sit down here at present.
 Considerable excitement was caused here when the Bertha was in port by case of abduction. It was impossible to learn full par ticulars, but it appears that during a reception which was. being given to tie visitors, some bandit abduct- ed a missionary who was a passen- ger on the boat, and it is thought, took her to q hiding place in Ga- lena bay. Great indignation is felt over the occurrence and a posse is being organized to rescue her. It is not known whether the ab- ductor intends to hold the woman for ransom, as in the Miss Stone s.n

INSPECTOR OF FISHERIES AT RENAL

Kenai, July IA, 19O2-The run of "red fish" has just commenced, and the rivers and inlet are vir- tually alive with them, jumping all over. All the canneries are doing well. I do not think any of them ought to fall short of their expected pack.
 The revenue cutter "Perry," "hav- ing on board Col. H. NJ. Kutchin. special agent for the Alaska salmon industry came in on Saturday morning. As they were unac- quainted with the inlet, Mir. c. w. Gompertz, superintendent of the r. P. x N. Co. at this place, kindly offered to act as pilot as far as Tyoonok and back. They left ycs- terday afternoon for Chignik bay. Col. Kutchin reports everything in fine condition around the canneries on the Inlet.
 The steamer Tonquin on her last trip was very deep laden with freight from the Excelsior, the ma iority of it being for Bill" Litch- field, at his trading post on the Shushitna.
 The Northwestern Mining & De- velorment Co. at Kussiloff Lake have about thirty men working at present and expect to have the water ready to turn into the Hume about the 1st of August.
 The Kenai Lake Mining Co, on upper kenai river have their plant running and are doing very well.

 APOLLO MINE SINKING NEW SHAFT.
 Unga, July 20-We are having a wonderful spell of dry warm weather here this summer, and the boys are enjoying swim in the bay every evening. It is not so pleasant for the Unga mine how ever, as they have no water for power and their reservoir looks . like mud pond.
 The Apollo Consolidated Min ing Company are only working q small number of men at the present time. They have sunk new shaft, 75O feet and are now cross cutting for the ledge. They hope to strike another bonanza ledge, and if they do, Unga island will soon boom again.
 One of the Japanese boys em- ploycd at the Apollo mine was ac- cidently drowned few days ago in the bay. While asleep in a boat he was suddenly awakened and turned over the boat he was lying Fin, and fell into deep water and was drowned before he could be rescued.
 Mir. Boulder. the scf Ool teacher, finished his work at this place in May and is now teaching summer school in Belkofsky. We feel very badly to think of his leaving us, but hope that it will be to his ad- vantage. He is, without exception, the most conscientious man who ever tried to teach the young AL ieuts. Pity that such good work has to be wasted on trash.
 The Alaska Goldfish Company has bought the fishing location at Squaw Harbor from Martin Olsen and propose to make that place their headquarters. The harbor is the best one on the west coast and we'll suited for a large fishing plant.
 Mir. J. B. Nelson, for two years clerk in the A. c. Store at this place, has been given a well-de- served promotion>to the headquar- ters of the company at Kodiak. He is a fine young man, and de- serves all that is coming his way.
