FROM THE
 KOYUKUK Mushers Have Tougl,
 Experience. LEFT LAST AUGUST Duncan and Griggs Said to Have Worked or Squirrel R!yer--
 SeIawik is Rich.
LEFT LAST AUGUST '

A repetition of the suffering, rriva tion and unrold hardships of the aver age Alaskan musher is exempt fled in the vivid experience of two muer~ named Frank Banta ana Robert B. chan. who left he Koyuliuk last August and arrived in Council this week, says the Council News.
 They started from BetteS on August 24 with canvas boat and ten dogs to the lIogatze;aket river and thence up thi, stream to a portage across the di- vide to the Pah river. They followed the Pah river down to it's junction vii h the Kobuk, and continued on to Selawik lake. where the wrechiug of their beat clu-ed a delay of l5 days in building raft and hunting grub, getting almost nothing.
 To add to their discontinue a hiy freeze-up overlook them and they at tempted portage of 4SO miles to Hot ham inlet and ape Bl, ssum, but nearly lost their lives from breaking through the ice. They back-tracked, find ing no ice: thence ever portage to Esth, ltZ bay. crossed the mouth of Buckland to the mouth of the Keewalik, where |. ey went into camp and got some birds al d fish.
 Coming down the Kobuk, prior to this. they met 10 prosPectors on the kakaluktuk, 50 miles below Puh: at the mouth of Tutaksuk, l50 miles from the mouth of kobuk. they also met d party of l5 prospectors.
 A number of prospectors were met at the mouth of Squirrel river, 60 miles furth IT down; these had sent out an Eskimo to Candle City with d letter stating that they had found pay on two creeks, but were out of grub. The steamer John Riley was seen ly- ing apparently abandoned way up the kobuk. high and dry on a blr at least 400 miles from it's mouth.
 It was after leaving Selawik that the real hardshjps of these two hardy mushers began anu there was period of 24 days, during which they nearly starved to death, having little or 10 food. The climax was reached when within three days of Cape Blosso IF, II n and dogs being completely eXhau. tee. |. Of the remainin. five dogs, one Was killed and eaten to sustain the arty. At Blossom missionary kindly cared for them until they were able to con- tinue the hazardous trip.
 Banta and Buchan are stepping with their old Koyukuk friend Geo. Rice. of the Totem Music Hal. It is given out, however, that they contemplate another stampede to that region. but just to what point they are extremely reticent about. They admit having met Duncan and his partner named l GriggS at Candle. A native whom they met reported that th' SC two men had been working a summer on d tributary of Squirrel river ne r the headwaters. Plenty of natives t the mouth of Squirrel reported miLer, al work farther up.
 A man named Cahill, formerly mate of the lark Alaska, of the Captait Coogan party also reported arich strike in the Selawik country, but that pro visions were scarce and that there was little or no game in that section durn. the winter months
