Long Journey Made by ~ Two AIaskans.
STARTED FEBRUARY
From Cooks Inlet to the Head. waters Of the Kuskokwim
 --Great Section.

A journey through an entirely unex- plored.snd unknown country was that performed the past winter and spring by Capt. D. 5. Libby and L. F. Melsing, both pioneers of Council City, since . lSSJ. M g..se
 On Feb. 9 last they left Cook islst and with dog teams went up the Sush- itna river to it's headwaters, and thence across the divide to the headwaters of the KuskOkwim. The trip was an un- eyentful one until the rivers broke, and they built raft and attempted to float down q branch of the KuskOk vim. All their belongings, including some fine samples of quartz, were placed on the raft. It was wrecked and they lost everything. even their ammunition and some valuable papers. Being without ammunition or food the situation was not altogether pleasant. An Indian village was reached, however, before the men suffered much for want of food. ! Both Capt. Libby, who wintered at Port Clarence in lsG6-67, and MT. Mel sing are highly pleased with the country they trayersed. Tt IS mineral coun- try" said Capt. Libby. ''and has a great future. Fine samples of quartz bristling with native gold were found, but as stated, these were lost in the wreck of the raft.
 Game is abundant, especially moose, mountain goat, bear and smaller game. The country also is well timbered. Capt. Libby and MT. Melsing will re- turn to the new country next fall by way of TyOonok, on Cook inlet. During the trip they covered a distance of 1900 miles.

IS LOUSY"
 WITH GOLD Quartz Found in a Solo. mon River Mine RICHEST YET STRUCK On a Claim Owned by M. J. SulIi. van and Others at Solomon
 River
RICHEST YET STRUCK

The news of the rich strike in the quartz mine on Trilby mountain, Solo mon river, published exclusively by THE NUGGET in it's last issue is con firmed by E. H. Flynn, a we'll known quartz expert. It was NIT. Flynn and not MT. A. D. Mcqueen who visited the mine feN days ago, and who brought to Nome large number of samples fairly "lousy" with gold, visible to the naked eye. Mir. Flynn is an expert prOspector of 2 years experience in the Black Hills, $. D., and is therefore fully competent to express an opinion.
 In an interesting interview on Thurs day with NUGGET representative Mir. Flynn, among other things, said
 "The quartz locations of NJ. J. Sullivan and others, situated on Trilby moun- tain, where Solomon river and Big Hurrah creek unite will soon explode the assertions that we have no free gold quartz in Northwestern Alaska. The shaft on the above property is 2S feet in solid and paying free gold ore with out particle of refractory elements. The shaft is on the footwall and the ex- tent of the ore body cannot be deter mined until the ledge is crosscut, but from present indications it is in a very large body.
 "This find is 1000 feet from Lane's mill on higher point, and in rear of the mill. The railroad from Solomon to Council will pass at the base of Trilby mountain, across Trilby creek and Little Hurrah.
 "The ore brought to town by me is the richest found in Northwestern Alaska, and in mining parlance is lousy with free gold. The owners have been offered large sum for their group Of six claims, but they refuse to sell. All future developments and finds upon this property will be faithfully reported, as it now promises to be the coming Bonanza quartz country in this section and will give new impetus to quartz, which in course of time will be the staple gold resource of Alaska"
