of this old moraine, and believes he has found it. Next year, when the Flam- beau River Ditch is in active operation it will do much to develop and settle the question.
 The line of the Flambeau River Ditch will be about 100 feet above the highest benches, on the west side of Hastings creek and Saunders creek, this giving from 100 to 200 feet of pressure. The company, of which w. II. Lang is man ager, owns or controls about COCO acres of placer mining ground under the line of the ditch.
 In fact, this season for the first time in it's history, the immense possibilities of the Seward peninsula are just being grasped by miners and capitalists alike. In the past, handful of especially rich claims have been crudely worked by old-fashoned methods. At present, people are awaking to the fact that the cOuntry-is one vast hydraulic proposi- tion, and on every hand conservative experts say, unhesitatingly, that with in the next five years Nome will be the greatest placer mining camp in the world.

B|G0UTPUT
Of Gold Larger Than in
 Previous Years.

''Since the discovery of the Klondike and the establishment of the govern ment assay office at Seattle, period of five years, the total receipts of gold. dust and gold bullion amount to S73,3 790, or more than Sl4, ,OOO, ,OO0 per year.
 Of this amount $ll ,2S5, ,97l came from the mines of Nome, $54, S42, IA from the Klondike, s3,42s, 7SO from British Col. umbia, $2,654, ,O37 from Treadwell and other Alaska mines, $l,l53,S56 from mines of Washington and Oregon. The receipts of this office so far this season are in excess of any previous year in its history, the Klondike showing up bet ter than last season, while Nome re- ceipts are third larger"
 The above from the New York Sun of Aug. 3 shows how carefully Alaska is watched in the east. It is reported on good authority that Nome has so far this season sent out more gold than she did all last season This means that Nome is rapidly forging to the front.

 THE koBuk 4 Wash0ut in the Candle Creek Country Does Much Damage
 And Stops Work.

Minert Isaccson, of Candle, is in Nome getting supplies ready for ., few months stay in the Kobuk country. He reports that the severe storm of August l9 caught many of the Candle creek miners, washed out their dams and ditches and did great damage. Most oi the seasons work was washed out for many of the miners, with the result that they had to begin over again from the ground up. This. and the fact that many of the creek claims are worked out, settled the matter, and most Of the men leave either on the Corwin or Saddle for the Kobuk coun- try. Many of the men came to Nome to get their supplies, though some of them start from Candle. The Saddle and Corwin will carry large numbers of the Candle creek miners to the Ko- bulk country, while only few camps
 will remain at Candle creek this com-
 ing winter.

MANY FAILURES
 IN THE EAST
The Panic Seems to be Confined to Wall Street, But Has Its
 Effect on All Markets.

Six brokerage houses have failed in New York in the past thirty days, in- volving losses approximately s2O,OOO, OCO, mostly secured, but the securities depend largely on the value of the par ticular stocks they were handling. The cause for the failures is general shrinkage of values in stocks. The following are some of the declines for the year in the more important stocks. the low prices having been made in dealings in New York Aug. 6.

DALE JUSTIFIED IN
WELDING THE KNIFE

Charles Dale was Yesterday after
noon in Justice Schriver's court re-
lieVCd of a menace that has been
hanging over his head since the night
of Nov. ,, when he. while acting as
guardian of the effects of the l.. OPP
penhcimer Carnival company, stabbed
Henry Whitaker.
1t will be recalled that at that time
the carnival people had been deserted
by the manager and proceedings were
begun to attach the property for the
rental of the grounds at Twenty
fourth street. Coroner Eckhart, who
had the papers, placed Dale on guard
at the gate of the grounds. Late at
night Whitaker and companion
came along and attempted to enter
the grounds. At the hearing yester-
day before Justice Schriver. where
the case was taken on change of
venue from the court of Justice

,ler attacked him. twice, the second
time with stones. Dale accordingly
drew his knife and cut Whitaker in
the chest. inficting wound that sent
him to the hospital. Then Dale fed
and remained in hiding 4 couple of
days.
Whitaker showed no disposition to
prosecute till Yesterday, but he deriv-
ed little satisfaction from it. for the
justice dismissed proceedings after
hearing the stories of the parties i'm
plicated. Assistant States Attorney
Olmsted prosecuted and John Looney
defended.

MONTH OF DECEMBER
BRINGS FEW CLEAR DAYS

The most striking feature of the
weather of December just passed, ac-
cording to the monthly summary got
ten out by j. --. Sherier. of the local

sence of clear days. There were but
nine clear days against 10 cloudy
ones and three that were partly
cloudy. The total precipitation for
the month was 1.SS inches. or an eX-
cess over the average for the past %
years of .25 inches. The average tenn
perature was 81. deficiency below
the average for the past - years of
three degrees.
The highest temperature was 40
Dec 1 and the lowest was seven below
Dec. :. The greatest daily range of
temperature was 80 degrees Dec. 2i
and the least was four degrees Dec.

This is Gov. Yates final demons ira
tion of power as factor in state pol
itics, so far as the state machine is
concerned, and the report is out that
he will not barter away patronage
term without an understanding as to
his status in 1904.
Lorimer Rules the Roost.
Lorimer, it is agreed on all hands,
Will hold the balance of power in the
senatorial contest. Legislative men,
bers controlled by Yates are instruct
ed for Congressman Hopkins. where
as the Lorimer members are unin-
structed and therefore could be de-
| ilvered at random in case of clash.
Herein consists Lorimer's power. and
he information is that Yates not only
viii drive bargain with Lorimer be-
fore he mortgages everything in sight
for Miller, but also will make a con-
tract with Mr.. Hopkins on the score
of federal patronage. Gov. Yates
probably remembers that Senator
Cullom ran rough shod over the Tan
ner machine in 1901 and made state
patronage mere bagatelle compared
~ 'hC iiNHCS OI S1eT-
man adherents claim 40 members for
the MacOmb man. Mr.. Lorimer claims
80 men signed for Miller and says
four others are ready to afliX their
names To his pledge.
Mr.. Lorimer says he will remain at
springfield most of the time until the
senatorial fight is over. He will make
& trip to Washington, however, be-
fore the senatorial convention is
held. Mr.. Lorimer is the admitted di-
rector of the Miller campaign. Mr.
Lorimer and &. W. Hinman dincd with
Gov. Yates last night and held "a
lengthy conference with the state en-
ecutiye.
State Patronage Bartered.
The Shermanites assert that state
patronage is being bartered right aud
left for Miller votes and that threats
have been made to discharge state. of
ficeholders who fail to deliver their
district members to the machine.

NEW SAYINGS
OF THE SAVIOR
WONDERFUL DISCOVERIES MADE
IN EGYPT BY ARCHAEOLOGIsTs,
WHO FIND ANCIENT PAPYRI.

LONDON, November 4.-Many hith-
erto unknown sayings OF Jesus Christ
have been discovered in Egypt by
archaeologists. who have dug up
papyri buried since the second century
100 miles south Of Cairo. DR.. Bernard
=. Grenfell, who has been engaged in
! Egyptian excavations since 1894, at the
general meeting of the Egypt EXplora-
ton Fund, held yesterday gave the
following details:
Accompanied by Dr. Hunt, DR.. Gren-
fell found a rich Ptolemic metropolis
at FL Hibeh. The bulk of the docu-
ments from the one mound consisted
of a collection of sayings Of Jesus.
They are all introduced with the
words Jesus saith" and for the most
part are new. The ends OF the lines,
unfortunately, are often obiiterated.
Apparently all the sayings were adj
dressed to st. Thomas. one of the
most remarkable Is:
Let not him that seeketh cease
from his search until he finds, and
when he finds he shall wonder; Won
dering, he shall reach the kingdom,
/. e., the kingdom he shall have
rest"
DR.. Grenfell remarked that enor-
nous interest would be also aroused
by the discoveries on account of the
variations they disclosed from ac-
cepted texts.
one variant of mystical saying re-
corded in St. Luke, THE kingdom Of
God is within you" was of great
value, as the saying in the papyrus
appeared in quite different surround
ings from those attributed to it by
the evangelist and extended far into
another region. According to DR..
Grenfell, these sayings formed the
new Gospel which is traditionally as
ISOLATED with st. Thomas.
An interesting variation of the Cos
pei according to st. Luke, eleventh
chapter and ffty-second verse, Woe
unto you lawyers, for ye have taken
away the key of knowledge; We en-
tered not in yourselves and them that
were entering in We hindered," reads
in the papyrus, Eye have hidden the
key of knowledge, we entered not
yourselves and to them that were en-
tererng in We did not open"
Another fragment contained a dis
course of Christ closely related to pas
sages OF the sermon on the mount and
a conversation between Christ and his
disciples. in which Christ answers a
question as to when his kingdom will
I be realized saysing:
when We return to the state Of in
nOcence which existed before fan
4 valuable find was found written
in Latin, giving the text of the epis-
ties to the Hebrews and epitOme of
! Liyy's six lost books This with other
papyri, covering the period 1j0-137

| light on the history Of the world and
marked the recovery Of hitherto classi-
cal literature of Egypt A quaint in
