SULPHUR MINES

Tacomsa, July 2l.-And now it is
phur-pure sulphur in tons, in car.
loads, in shiploads-for which Alaska
is to become most famous. Hitherto
the worlds supply of sulphur for the
making Of powder and the industrial
arts has been coming for centuries from
the island of Sicily, where dozen ves-
sells at time are seen loading the yell
low material. But Sicily is not cir
cumstance Tor the deposits of pure sui
phur on Mount McCutcheon. on Una
laska island, is the report just brought
down by George Carlson, who is at
present and for years has been in the
Swedish government employ as min.
ing engineer. He was for years located
at the Sicilian Sulphur mines as an
expert, locating new beds of the stuff,
and experimenting the workings. 1t
was on this account that the gentle
mans annual vacation from the Swed-
ish service was eagerly taken advantage
of by the New Workers who hold a
claim to the new sulphur discoveries of
Unalaska island. and he was secured
and sent up there at once. He spent
one month on the island with a force

without Equal in the World.
The Swedish government expert finds
that for vast deposits of the purest sul-
phur the Alaskan discovery is without
equal in the world. The beds lie in
blanket fashion over the most of the
mountain. thinning out as the level of
the sea is reached, but everywhere
prevalent in almost unbroken strata.
He found the mountain to be $500
feet above the surrounding ocean, and
covered more than half way down from
the summit with eternal snow. The
summit reveals an extinct volcano,
with crater half mile wide. The
interior OF the crater is sunken some
hundredso feet, and the sides are all
honeycombed, affording sheltering caves
for Mr.. Carlson and his men for many
nights. Owing to there being no tim
Der at all on the mountain, the month
spent in the SHOWS was spent for the
most part entirely without fire or hot
food, but the wonderful revelations
more than compensated the traveller.
In one spot the removal of thirty feet
of ice and snow and some twenty feet
of broken shell rock let the workers

An Ugly Climate.

Mr.. Carlson brings out with him sew
eral hundred pounds of the sulphur, all
OF which looks exactly as does the drug
store sulphur, which, mixed with mo-
lasses, used to form SO large part of
the family medicine chest in grand
mothers days.
OF all The variations of climate along
the Alaskan coast Mr.. Carlson declares
the climate in the neighborhood of this
mountain is the worst. In twenty. nine
days on the mountain it was never pos
sible to see the surrounding ocean few
miles away. A dense, wet, climbing.
driving, chilly unwholesome fog envel-
oped the mountain constantly, causing
distressing semi darkness at all times.
The moisture in the air over the Japan
current is condensed by contact with
the snow into vapor, the supply never
failing the year around, and the sum-
nit Of the mountain only on rare occa-
sions being visible from Dutch Harbor,
only few miles away.

Two Men Arrested at Pail
sade For Forgery-Lamb
Requests Description

A cattle buyer who arrived from the
east this morning brought the infor-
nation of the arrest at Pa,isade OF two
men who are charged with forgery.
Sheriff Lamb at once wired the Off
cials at Palisade for a description of
the two men, thinking one might be
Jas. Creegan Crane, wanted for the
crime of forgery here. Up to the time
the Silver State went to press, the
Palisade officials had failed to ans
wer the telegram.
Regarding the man brought from
California yesterday, and afterward
'eleased, the parties interested admit
ting that he was not the man who
passed the bogus checks, Sheriff Lamb
stated that after he saw and talked
with the fellow, he was pretty we'll
convinced that he was not the man
wanted; he told a straight story, and
seemed to have no knowledge of the
forgery, protesting that he knew moth
ing about it, He admitted that he was
arrested by Constable LaVoy and
spent a night in Jail here, and further,
that the name he gave at that time
was one assumed for the occasion.
His arrest occurred while Sheriff
Lamb was ont of the city on business
hence he had never seen the suspect;
but knowing it would be less expense
to bring him to Winnemucca than to
have man go from here to Calllor-
MIA and back for the purpose of identi-
flying him, brought him back to be
sure.
