The decision of Judge Moore in re the right of eminent domain" reference to which has already been made in these columns, is already bearing it's fruit. Several important ditch enter. prises have been abandoned, because the promoters state that they do not propose to invest their own money and that of their friends in enterprises which, under existing conditions, must be classed as uncertain, indeed.-Nome Nugget.
 The Gold Run Mining Company, which owns a majority of the claims on Gold Run Creek, has brought suit, against Belinda Carbonneau and some twenty-five other defendants, invoIv- ing property valued at S1,OO0,00O.

The property was shut down for a year, but on the areival of Mrs Carbohneau with power of attorney from the company, operations opened up on all the claims. Hence the in- junction.
 Unalaklik, July 23.-A mining dis covery that started in a tragedy and that may bring unto 1 wealth to the natives and mission here, has recently come to light. It appears that in 1902 two miners left Besboro island, near this place, with a boat full of quartz. and were watched by some natives. Shortly after the miners left the island a squall sprang up, capsizing the boat and drowning the miners. The natives reported the matter among themselves, hunted until they found where the miners had been working. They found stringers with free gold visible to the naked eye. The matter was kept quiet until the island was pretty we'll staked, and then the story gradually leaked out. A couple of white men have re- gently visited the island. It is under stood that some of the surface rock has been assayed and showed 80 to the ton free milling ore.-Nom9 Nugget.
 There are no fewer than five north pole expeditions in prospect or in being at the present time. The most import ant is that of the Russian, Baron E. Toll, who left the island of Koteinoi, in the New Siberian group, year ago, and has not been heard from since. The new Ziegler expedition, commanded by Capt. John Haven, left New York last spring and reached Thomsoe near the end of July, but on attempting to make Franz Josef Land met with obstacles so great that it had to pause. A further attempt is to be made next spring. An other expedition projected by Capt Drake was to have sailed for Point Bar row, in Alaska, and, having established a depot there, was to have made a dash for the pole. That also has been defer red till next year. Then there is Lieut.. Peary's coming venture, which will start in September, and, lastly, there is the Norwegian Amundsen expedition, which is believed to be somewhere among the islands of British North America, searching not for the pole proper, but the magnetic pole.-St.Paul Dispatch.

 About 12 miles out from Seward while the workmen were engaged in making a cut through one of the low hills, seepage oil was struck, which is creating some little excitement. The amount of seepage shown would seem to indicate a large body somewhere nearby.

 Judge Wickersham believes Alaska should be treated as other sections of the United States have been treated. He wants the people to be given terri togiaI government and then statehood, but he urges that here is a serious question as to whether or not the con gress will want to do that
 X An eskimo found dead near Council City is described by the News as fol- lows: "He was dressed in a summer suit, brown felt hat, had corn cob pipe with wooden stem, and white bone mouth piece. There were $2.25 in his trousers, and a diary of 1900 The deceased had a splendid set of teeth, and both arms and legs are missing"
 The KIondike is more in need of labor this summer than at any time since the rush days. The biggest oper- ators have suffered through the rush to Fairbanks. Men have left good paying jobs and hastened down the river to the new gold fields. It is estimated 1,5O0 to 2OOO people have left Dawson and vicinity for the Tanana this sea- son.
 Large developments in the Juneau gold district are promised for the near future, says Walter Clark in the P-I. The existence in Southeastern Alaska of one of the most profitable gold mines in the world has frequently raised the question: If the low-grade ore of the Treadwell can be worked to advantage, why not other large bodies of ore in the Juneau district? It was established some time ago that the great body of gold bearing rock on Douglas Island is not an isolated in- instance of valuable deposits in South eastern Alaska. Some intelligent prospecting and the investment of capital, properly applied, have been the only factors wanting. Well-known mining men and some of the most in- telligent members of the geological survey agree that Southeastern Alaska, in the region around Juneau, is des- tined to produce many times as much gold as it produces now, and that the  famous Alaska Treadwell mine can be probably, in several places. The development would have taken place earlier, but the rush to placer gold districts in other parts of Alaska and in the Klondike invervened, and the quartz deposits of the Alaska pan- handle have had to wait

TRIUMPHs OF MODERN SURGERY.
Wonderful things are done for
the human body by surgery.
Organs are taken out and scraped
and polished and put back, or
they may be removed entirely !;
bones are spliced; pipes take the
place of diseased sections of veins;
antiseptic dressings are applied
to wounds, bruises, burns and
like injuries before inflammation
sets in, which causes them to
heal without maturation and in
one'third the time required by
the old treatment. Chamber
lain's Pain Balm acts on this
same principle. 1t is an antisep-
tic and when applied to such in-
juries causes them to heal very
quickly. 1t also allays the pain
aud soreness. Keep a bottle OF
Pain Balm in your home and it
will save you time and money,
not to mention the Inconvenience
and suffering which such inir-
ries entail. For sale by Ward,

ture was delivered and the price
agreed upon paid, would threat
