of contents of the January-February
number of Things & Thoughts, with un-

philosophical quality is too FAR above

latter-day prophet of human brotherhood

Solomon City, Sept. PC, Many i'm provements are under way here in an ticipation of the quartz developments next year. The town is lively, and the citizens confidently expect that com mercial center will grow up here dur ing the next few years.
 The Solomon quartz lodges, on a number of which active development is under way, are the most promising ever found in Northwestern Alaska. The Hurrah mine, owned by Mrs. (. D. Lane and her son, T. T. Lane, is bound to be winner. Work of development is actively under way, and as the work proceeds the better become the pros poets. Some phenomenaIly rich quartz has been found. Samples taken from the ledge are literally alive with gold, and the work already done demon strates the permanenCe of the ledge. When 50 good d quartz miner as Chas. D. Lane says that if the Hurrah mine is not mine it has missed the best chance of being ono that he ever saw, it augurs well for this country. It IS stated that the ten-Stamp mill which Mrs Lane has ordered will be erected this winter, and early next spring 1t will be dropping stamps. Old-timc quartz miners who are on Solomon, and who have located claims, are en- thusiastic over the outlook. Mrs. Lane is dearly loved all over Northwestern Alaska for her well known liberality, her goodness of heart, as well as her business sagacity and enterprise, while Mr. C. D. Lane himself has q friend in every miner who has ever known him.
