SAVE THE BOYS.

A reader of New Orleans Picayune
suggests in a communication to thai
paper, the establishment Of a house
or farm of correction for boys. The
idea is not new by any means, and
though it is most excellent and very
wise it seems to involve an expendi-
ture which places it beyond the
means Of Louisiana or Mississippi to
maintain, As a place for the deten-
ton Of boys and young men guilty
of their first offense against the laws
of the city, county or State, no bet
ter plan could be devised. The
penitentiary is not the place for a
boy or even for young man, who in
a moment Of dire extremity commits
an offence against the law, The
State prison is inhabited by men of
the most vicious tendencies and men
OF this character take an extreme de-
light in training young men to fol-
low the crooked and dark ways
through life.
The penitentiary is really a school
for the youth to serve an apprent-
iceship in crime.
If an arrangement could be eff
fected by which the two States could
cooperate in this work it would be
much better than they are now do
ing, Lack Of jurisdiction for one
State or the other could be arranged
by an agreement with the parents or
guardians of the boys who have
strayed from the strait and narrow
path.
A place for the hayward boys
would be the means of redeeming
many and it would save many a
heart ache for a sore distressed
mother, who can not control the boy
who will not appreciate her love or
the duty he owes her until it is too

Slate Creek

II, R. Leslie, who reached town from Slate creek Tuesday. reports that camp to be in hourishing condition. The season opened about May 20th, with plenty oi water, and every man in camp is at work. Ten claims on Slate creek, and all the claims on Miller gulch, with the exception of Miller's, are being worked with results equal to those of the best years, and it is figured that this season, because of its promised length and the num- Der of claims working, will show Il larger production than any previous year. Kramer has made the largest cleanup ever made on his claim. Rob Coles, Jacobson, Garrett and Pulley have found pay on a bench claim above Miller gulch. They are using but two boxes, and their first cleanup, after two days work was forty-twO ounces. Reports from Wildhorse and other creeks in that vicinity, which were staked last year, are to the effect that pay has been found, and the outlook for good camp there is bright.

Alaska Tin

Recent development of the Alas kan tin deposits is exhaustivelv treated in an article by Arthur J. Collier, appearing in the annual report of the progress of investiga- tions of mineral resources in the northern territory, just issued by the United States geological survey. Mir. Golfers article Is considered of such importance that the compiler of the report has seen fit to cali special attention to it and has recommended that the report be published in q bulletin.
 Mir. Collier says:
 "The tin deposits of Alaska which give promise of some economic inn porIance are situated in what is known as York region, which com prises the western end Of Seward Peninsula, though in small quanti- ties is more largely distributed. The tin ore of the York region occurs in both lodes and placers. distributed over an area of aDout 45O square miles. Stream tin was discovered in the gold placer mines in the Anikovik river, near York, in 1JOO, since which time prospec- tors have found the ore at many other localities. These deposits have already been described by tn, writer in some detail, so that only brief statement of the geological conditions is here required.
 "During tie season of 1904 the writer examined many specimens of tin ore and collections of miner als at Nome, made by prospectors who were searching for tin in vari- ous parts of Seward peninsula, and later spent a few days at Cape mountain and Lost river, the two points where systematic develop ment of tin-bearing lodes was in progress. The tin placers of Buck creek were not again visited, though considerable mining was in pro- gress there during the season. 1t is the purpose of this paper merely to describe the development since 1903.
 ''The prospecting and develop ment of mineral-bearing lOdes is necessarily slow and expensive as compared with the rapid develop ment of the placers, and it is scarcely reasonable to suppose that the work which can be done in a short Alaskan season will be sui hclent to demonstrate their value. On the other hand, lode deposits have the advantage over placers that they can be worked throughout the whole year in Alaska as we'll IS in any other part of the world. During part of the season oi 1904 development work on tin lodes was in progress at Lost river and Cape mountain, and new dis coveries were reported d. Brooks mountain, Ear mountains, and in the Darby mountains, all in Seward peninsula.

Whraves to be Improved,

As soon as the piles can be brought up from the sound the kinghorn wharf will be thoroughly repaired and extended about twenty feet to deeper water. The extension will be in the form of triangle, with its base at the southern end of the wharf. This extension will give ample depth of water for any steamer coming here at any stage of the tide, and will permit of yes sells leaving without the necessity of warping out the bow. Later the new wharf will be extended along its entire front for about twenty- five feet.
The Alaska prospector., 1905-07-13

'The whole rc.;on around Lost mountain has been thoughly searched for croppings of tin bear ing lodges, with the result that a number of porphyriiic dikes, some of which are mincralized with gaiena and arsenical pyrites, have been found in the region southwest of Cassitrritc creek. Ore from one of these is reported to yeild an assay of fifteen ounces of silver per ton.
 Cape mountain is situated in the extreme western end oi the penisu'a, and takes its name from Cape Prince of Wales. IL is ess h. tialiy a granite boss surrounded by iimestones and slates. in which it is intrudcd. investigations made during the past season show that the contact of limestone and gran ite are very irregular and that around the margins masses of lime stone are often included in the granite, while the granite often penetrates the surrounding llme- stone in d fringe of porphyritic dikes."
