HOPE OF DIAMONDS IN ALASKA
Geological Conditions StrikingIy SINH
lar to Those of the Kimberley District.

The reported finding of a number of
small diamonds on tributary of
Golofin bay. forty miles east Ct Cape
Nome, suggests that Alaska may ulti-
mateIy become as famous as diamond
field as it now is as a producer of the
precious metal. The first microscopical
examination of the ruby sands of Cape
Nome. in which the auriferous deposits
in that district lie, was made by ex-
State Mineralogist Henry G. Hanks,
who at the time declared his belief that
some small lustrous crystals contained
in the sand were diamonds. These
crystals were microscopically minute,
but they bore all of the characteristics
of the precious gem in the rough. If
diamonds have been found in the
neighborhood of Golofin bay, and the
crystals discovered by Hanks i'll the
ruby sands of Nome were gems also,
then the presumption is strong that a
diamondiferous deposit exists some
where within the watershed of both
localities.
There is nothing improbable in the
finding of diamonds in paying auanti-
ties in the Territory. Some travellers
have noticed strong similarity be-
tween the topography and geological
formations of the Yukon Valley and the
Misunderstanding veldt of South Africa.
The diamondiferous soil in the latter
is found in the chimneys of extinct
volcanoes. Alaska is volcanic coun-
try. Most of it's volcanoes have been
long since dead; those still active are
dying. Diamonds and the matrix in
which they are found are of volcanic
origin. Why should not diamonds exist
in Alaska as well as in South Africa?
PrOspectOrs in Alaska have so far
confined their search chiefly for gold.
A few have been interested in it's coal
and copper deposits. Other minerals
have been neglected. And yet there
may be a store of greater wealth in
some other mineral than any yet OBJ
tanned by the prospector for gold await
ing the miner who. is intelligent enough
to understand the signs leading to ma
lures secrets and profit by the
knowledge. The diamonds discovered
at Golofin bay and in the ruby sands OF
Cape Nome may be of no direct COM
mercial value, but they may stimulate
the miner to search the country for
their source, where deposit may exist
| to amply enrich him for his labor and
enterprise.-San Francisco Chronicle.

that the ruins were the work OF pre-

investigations on the spot for the last
| five years-while embodying the in
formation gained by their predecessor
in the field, make important and
valua BILE additions to our knowledge, as
the result of elaborate examinations,
many of the ruins described by them
having been brought to light for the
first time through their unwearying
labors. They modestly refrain from
theorizing on the antiquities referred
to. preferring to present the reader
with a clear and readable account Of
the finds discovered, and to let him
draw his own conclusions. An instance
in point is the veXed question Of the
Identification of the Solomonic Ophir
Chat there was one Ophir in Arabia is,
of course. beyond all doubt). 1t seems
clear that Ophir was a collective name
for certain distant southern countries.
But antiquarians, leaving out eccentric
opinions, such as the idea of Josephus,
who plants Ophir in the Moluccas,
have generally located the auriferous
region in India, or in Ara bia or on the
east coast Of Africa, in the vicinity Of
SOfala.
Those who identify the old Ophir
with Rhodesa, as, for example,
Quatremere, urge in support CT their
conclusion the quantity and purity Of
the East African gold dust. the large
supply of ivory. and the well-known
fact that the Phoenicians, according
to Herodotus, circumnavigated Africa
at a very early date, and established
hundred settlements on the African
west coast. Carl Mauch, who explored
the ruins Of Zimbabwe in 1871. and
held the curious theory that the ruins
had been built. under the direction of
the Queen of Sheba, by Phoenician me-
chanics, in imitation of the Jewish tenn |
pie, claimed to have discovered the |

while he maintained that the |
word peacock" an animal which is, of |
course. not found in Mashonaland, was
a mistranslation for ostrich
An alternative explanation of the |
"sandalwoOd and peacock difficulty |
was that they were brought to South |
African Ophir and thence exported with |
the native products. 1t may be worth |
while just to mention the opinion of |
Mr.. Selous. the famous hunter of big |
game. He is of opinion that the relics |
are the remains of an ancient temple |
for the worship of Baal, and of a strong

mother having been Madame
Loewenthal of Vienna, who played a
considerable role in connection with
