A story of hardsl ip and suffering. such as is too frequently told in high latitudes, is that related by Christian Betsch, who reached Nome from the Innoko river Monday afternoon. With him on the terrible trip were Nj Ike Clarity and " iliiam Wadsworth. The latter was left at Anvill. as he is still ill from the effects of h IS terrible trip.
 Betsch, Garrity and Wadaworth tray eled together nearly the whole Of the way from a point zoo miles up the h. noko river. The men left camp Nov 3, last, with nine days provisions only, as they intended to secure guide at q native village B miles further down the river to take them across conntry to Anvik, the estimated distance being only l3J miles. They could not get q guide. though they offered every ir- ducement within their power. Then they were forced to lIe ep to the river, aS they dare not alone attempt 10 travel overland. Soon they had eaten their last morsel of grub, and for five da, ,~ they tasted nothing. They bal seen plenty of grouse further up the river, but now none were to be seen; one acc!l of ptarmisan was sighted one day ZU0 yards distant. but the now fam,5hiug men could n, get near them. Finally Betsch eyamined 8 iitJpr Saeai Rpa .Lealna on the inside some cakcd tionr. cnly an ounce or so. This he n.adc into small cake and divided it into three parts. He kept his ptrtion until the next day. wien he ate il. Eyen their coffee had given out, and they chewed the-col1ee grounds; they hunted for wild rose bu Is and found none; then they found q dozen or so wild cranherries and ate them with d raVenOuS relish. At the end of the fifth day Betsch sucC eeded in reaching d native village, and the other two men were bre u.ht in. But all the food they could get consisted Of two rabbits and d small white fish. They waited not to cook them, but ate the food raw. The natives were practically } without food, anu, having rested, the men pushed on to another village. some 5 miles away with l5 small fish as their stock of provisions. They travelled all that day. They had no tent and Betsrh pulled a sled on which was his bedding
 
 doned hut and cache. Eagerly they searched it in htpa of finding food. They were disappointed. A furious blizzard came up, and they took refuge m the hut. They were without fire, having broken their axe. Next morn

Wild Geese or Ducks Seen Last Mem day lowering Over the Ice Out
 On Boring Sea.

Although it is but February ], there are people who profess to already see "siAn' Of sprine.' Eldie Adams milkmen says his COWS and horses are shedding their coats: last year they did not do this until late in March.
 w. J. Keene and others aver that nn Monday they saw a flock of geese or ducks, lowering over the ice out on the sea. as if looking for open water. The birds came from the south, the men say.
 Last Sunday was Candlemas day. and if the old saw he true the birds and beasts are simply forcing the season, for it is said: eff Canldemas day be cold and clear, there'll be two winters in the year, And it was both. An other Candlemas cay story Is to the effect that the groanl hog emerges that day from his hole, an If he sees his shadow, he forthwi tn returns to his sleep, as he fee tertain that wint is not yet over. And the round hog had no difficulty in S, eing his shadow last Sunday.

NEAR SNOW GULGH
An Immense Ledge of Rich Ore Has Beeu Developed Sufficiently to Warrant tine Erection of Stamp MilI-The Ore Will Be Quarried.

By July next quartz mill, with capacity of ten st tmrs, will be Il opera tion on the divide be tween Anvil creek and Snow gulch. Here t|erc is a group of four claims, located in July, 1900. by H. IT. Clark, and enough development work has cen done to i stify the erection of Il stamp mill
 Last fall these properties were leased to c. C. Reyno d., the representative of W. $. Stratton, of Cripple Creek, Co.,, for term of three years, Mr. Reynolds undertaking to erect the ma ehinery necessary for operating the mines. The machinery was slipped to seattle, hut it reached that port too late tp catch steamer for Nome before the close Of navjgution.
 Mr. Clark hq~ expended some $3 GOO in development work on the properties. The ledge has been croS>cut for a dis sance ol G feet, but its extent is yet unknown. and about II shafts 30 feet deep have been sunk upon it.
 The ore is rich, and is both free-mill- ing and base. A number of samples which Mr. Clark has in his possession are studded vii h gold. The fragments of piece of quartz about the size of a mans fist, which he broke with ham mer, were kept from falling apart by she wire gold with which they were permeated, and seventeen sample. taken from the surface and sent 10 the outside for assays averaged S9l to the ton. The ledge can be >eassly and cheaply worked as the ore will be auarr ed.
 Mir. Clark is confident that the prop critics will produce large amounts of gold, and that this pioneer stamp mill of Northwestern Alaska will be fol- lowed by many others within a short period of time.
