Mir. W. H. Whittlesey on behalf of the Fraternal Club welcomed Judge Wickersham. In his excellent ad- dress he reviewed the early history of Alaska and presented many facts that were new to many.
 Judge Goodell in an eloquent and witty address welcomed Judge Wickersham on behalf of tbe citi- zcns of Valdez. His speech was full of bright and witty remarks and he was often interrupted by loud applause and laughter.
 Judge Wickcrsham responded to all in masterly address. which won the hearts of his hearers. Many had wondered what man. ner of man" this was that had been sent to administer justice to our people, but after his eloquen' speech on this o,casion, they ar, convinced that we have kinu friend, Il progressive citizen. q broad minded man and an abl, and just jurist in Judge Wicker sham. Those who had any doubt, as to what the Judge thought oi Valdez as the headquarters of tn, court and as the coming metropolis of Alaska. had these all removed as he spoke in very glowing terms

other court officials will spend most of their time here and this will be the real headquarters of the court
 On February 2nd the first regu- lar term of court will be held in Valdez, when grand and trial jury will be impaneled.
 In March Judge Wickersham and Clerk Heilig will leave for Eagle in the Forty Mile country, over tn, all American trail and will later go down the Yukon, holding court at various points, returning to Val dez via St. Michael, Unalaska, Ko- diak and Cooks Inlet.
 Mrs. Wickersham is now in Ari- zOna where she has gone for the benefit of her health.
 The PRosPE,"roR desires to extend a hearty welcome to Judge Wick ersham.
 One of the largest attended and most enjoyable receptions of the season was that rendered Hon. James Wickersham, Judge of the U. $. District, by the Fraternal Club association at the Moose Hall last Tuesday evening. The club extended general invitation to the public to be present and meet Judge Wickersham and early in the evening the hall was crowded with the representative people of Valdez and vicinity.
 A. R. Heilig, President of the Fraternal Association acted as chairman and in his happy man. ner spoke of the organization of the club, the occasion for the present meeting and referred to the fact that Judge Harlan and himself had been compelled to be here on forty days probation before they were given reception. Judge Wicker sham had been here hardly that number of hours and should feel congratulated that he had been re- ceived without probation.

X letter received by MT. Hcilic, Clerk of the L. S. Court from <. Nj. Eraff, Commissioner of Forty Mile District. contains the following statements:

 The strike Was first reported here .bout three weeks ago and was to he effect that quartz had been Hruck on the divide between Chick n and Lost Chicken creeks and hat the rock was very rich. Later developments prove this. Over an 'rea of about fifteen miles bv four niles, as evidenced by large 'umber oi holes. there l. dyke 1T cap of quartz that will go from
 we thousand to one hundred thou and dollars per ton. These fig res l know are startling but the 'ght of the rock dispels all doubt. It, or rather some of it, is more than half gold. Of course this lo- cality has gone crazy and already the vanguard of the stampeders rom Dawson are arriving. There no powder here so We know 'othing as to the depth of the de- i'osit but if it is but few feet deep t is marvelously rich. I will try and get sample or two and send you them. It looks very much as II within the next twelve months here would be in the neighborhood of Chicken Creek, town of from me to two thousand people, in which event that would be the place for this office.
