LAKE OF GOLD IN ALASKA.

Mayo Lake, adjacent to Stew
art river, in British Yukon, has
it's bottom lined with gold How
to secure its golden riches is the
problem now confronting the en-
gineers of Klondike and adjacent
districts. Five rich gold bearing
creeks are drained into Mayo
Lake. For centuries they have
been sweeping their auriferous
deposits into it's bottom Strang-
ly enough the lake is bottomless,
so far as soundings have been
able to ascertain its depth. It's
shores were prospected this sum-
mer and found to contain gold in
paying quantities.
These facts lead Mr.. Neeland,
the Canadian government survey
or. and other engineers, TO con-
clnde that untold riches lie at the
bottom of the lake. Neverthe-
less, the lake seems TO lie in a
great cauldronor crater Of such
depth as to make gravity drain
age probably impossible. The
lake is twenty miles long by one
and half to two and q half
wide~ The Ottowa government
will be asked to Investigate
through some Of its best engi-
neers.

new YORK CITY DEMOCRATS
WIN GREAT VICTORY
Col. G6OfO6 B. MC6I6IIdR D6f6dtS Seth Low
for MduOr bU a LdrO6 Majority.
Unprecedented Vote Follows a Hard Fought
Municipal Campaign.

New York, Nov, 3.-Col. Geo.
r. Mcclellan, Tammany candl-
date, was elected mayor of Greater
New York by more than 10000
plurality over Seth Low. fusion
candidate for reelection. Nc
Clellan carried four of the five
boroughs Low leading him In
Richmond by 218.
William S. Devery polled less
than 5000 votes for mayor in the
city.
The greatest surprise in the
election was furnished by Brook
lyn, which gave Mcclellan about
1900 plurality over Low. Mayor
Low had a plurality Of 25, 617'
over Edmard M. Sheppard two
years ago in that borough. The
fusion managers had confidently
predicted that Low this year
would carry Brooklyn by from
$4,000 to $4,000.
Comptroller Edward M Grout,
named for re election on the Tam
many ticket, ran ahead of Nc
ClelIan and is reelected by the
largest plurality given to any
candidate tor a city office since
consolidation took place. In
Brooklyn Grout leads Mcclellan
by upwards of 10000, and in
Manhattan his vote was above
that given the rest of the ticket.
Charles v. Fornes, candidate
for president of the Board of
Aldermen on the Mcclellan ticket,
was reelected by plurality of
about 65, 900

met with a crushing defeat.
Despite McLaughlin's appeal to
all citizens that they join in de-
feating a Tammany invasion of
Brooklyn, most of the districts in
which the old leader has been
credited with great strength
swelled the plurality for the
Tammany ticket.
With the election of Col. George
B. Mcclellan as mayor of New
York practically the entire Dem
ocratic ticket has been swept to
victory. His success terminates
one Of the hardest fought cam
paigns in municipal history.
The victory of Col. McC elan
aud the Democratic ticket was
foreshadoved by the party
leaders when the polls opened
this morning. Never before in a
municipal campaign was there
such an unprecedented party

vote. Democratic voters literal
ly swarmed to the polling places,
and by 1920 O'Clock it was
estimated that more than half
the vote of the boroughs had
been cast.
When the polls closed at (
o'clock this evening the citv Of
Greater New York had expended
a trif1e less than $500, 900 To
enable it's sovereign citizens to
register their individual choice
for mayor and other officials. In
this figure no accounting is taksn
of the enormous sums spent by
the managing bodies Of the two
great parties. which must have
approxipated in amount equal

expense of conducting the cleo

A sample Of the cloth from which the coat
was made was enclosed, also the talors

once examined and found to correspond
exactly with the coat missing from St.

This evening E. A. Hart Of st. Johns

BANQUET LAST EVENING

Afternoon Won by Team Of
Captain Badger.

The Spanish American war veterans of
this city celebrated their fourth anniyer-
sary yesterday In manner long to be re-
membered by them as a pleasant one. The

been the source Of much sport and pleas
ure was played at O'Clock yesterday af-
ternoon at Fairmount park and It was all
that it was in past years Ia the way of a
jolly good time.
The captains Of the two teams were
William Wishart and E. J. Badger The
latters team was victorious by a score Of
II to 8. Only seven innings were neces-
sary to show their opponents that their
base ball days were not entirely forgot
ten. The batteries were G0neo and
Cadger for the winning side and Wishart,
Bergeron and Dckey for the losers Wis
hart's left handed twists proved very Ell
fective at first but his arm was not used to
the strain and he gave up the box to Ber-
geron for part Of the game. Henry
Whitaker was umpire Of the game and the
conquered had much to say after the game
about some Of his decisions,
But the most enjoyable part Of this
celebration came in the evening AT S
O'Clock the members met in the armory
aud talked over old times for two hours
and then went to Hawes restaurant where
one Of those suppers for which the pTopri-
etor is famous was served in fine man
ner.
