VISIT TO NO. 8
 BIG MINOOK CREEK
Party Went Tanning for Gold and Were Pleased With
 the Prospects.

Last Saturday a party consisting of Mir. and Mrs. Frederick Dundas, Mrs. Stanley, Stockstead, Heeter, Miles and Hudson visited Mo- 8 Big Minook, the ground on which the A. F. Schmitz Alaska Dredging and Mining Company's steam scraper will begin operations. Mrs. Dundas and MT. Heeter were on horseback, the balance of the party going afoot through the mud of one of the worst pieces of trail in the district. The trip was made i'll order to inspect the ground; and Messrs. Dundas and Stockstead, as we'll as Mrs. Dundas, were much pleased with the results.
 Pannings from the dumps of the old prospect holes ranged from 5 to 6 cents to the pan. Dozens of old shafts are on the claim, the dirt from which IS overgrown with moss, and from all of them pros poets were taken which greatly surprised and pleased the strangers of the party. Mrs. Dundas had never banned gold before, ard the bright particles contrasted so beau tifully with the black sand that the lady was delighted with her novel work.
 MT. Dundas is fully convinced of the value of the ground. He esti- mates that the scraper will handle 600 cubic yards of dirt in ten hours. Cut this in two, and then cut it in two second time, and 1t Is plain the profits of the enterprise will be enormous. Tue richness of the ground Is thoroughly proven, no less than thirty-seven holes having been put to bedrock, and MT. Dun das has such confidence in the capacity of the machine that he feels the success of the company is assured.
 Mir. and Mrs. Dundas left Mon day on the Hannah for Nome and the outside. They will return to Rampant on the opening of naviga- ton next summer.

and 485 children. There were
1913 family season tickets sold,
81 adult season tickets and g

cts numbered 81. and 81 adult
tickets for the same time. The

one in the history of the assoc
citation, especially when the
length of the assembly is con-
sidered. The sale Of lots was BY
far the largest Of any year since
the association was incorporated,
and everyone was purchased
with a view to building a cot
tage thereon for next year.
The total receipts from all
sources will reach the snug total
of SIS, 900 approximately. If the
present outlook is any indication
ofthe work, there will probably
be more than a hundred cottages
erected in the park before the

Mill Machinery 6; i il
Is Purc cllased

An Inter- Ocean representa-
was shown the plans for The
farmers mill the other day and
was surprised at the splendid
equipment which has been pur-
chased for the plant. John A.
Van LieW, who has a record of
seventeen years as miller, was
the guiding star in selecting the
chinery which was purchased
entire from the Willford Manu-
featuring comp pany The build
ing will be 32x42 feet, three
stories above the basement, with
an engine and boiler 70 om 30x32
feet, and a large warehouse in
addition. just what the build
ing will be constructed of has
not been fully decided. but will
probably be built of cement
blocks. The boiler room will
have fire walls and be oroughly
prot tected. The ma chinery is
complete, and is an exact dupli-
cate of one Of the sections in the
large Minneapolis conc cerns..
The grain will pass through the
same machines that Pillsbury s
Best does. There are five stands
of double rolls one of which re-
ceives the grain from the clean
ing machinery where it passes
through three processes COM
pletely removing any impurities.
After the first roller processes
are completed the grain goes to
the polishing machines which
clean it Of all brand, shorts and
by products. tt is then return
led to the rollers where the ker-
mel is made into -four. The bolt
| ing process is che latest and most
improved design, and is the
same as is in use in all the large
mills. There is machinery for
soaking and steaming the grain
just as are found in the twin
lefty mills. The whole building
lis dust proof, chinery being
fused to take up and carry away
eyery particle Of dust and i'm.
purity.
Subscriptions to the stock are
Ibeing rapidly taken, the farm
ers showing much interest in
the matter. And when it is re-
Imembe bered that the freight alone

SHOT UP A SALOON
IN MONTANA STYLE

William Ryan spent three weeks in
the Montana, harvest fields and returned
to Minneapolis yesterday thinking he
was "real bad man.
Out west he had heard how saloons
were shot up when the fre-eaterss felt
hilarious, so he started the new fad in
Casey & Halloran 3 saloon, 200 Henne-
sulting, and when ordered out he drew
his revolver and began shooting holes
in the ceiling.
"'Im a revil and don't you forget
it, he yelled. ct IN the man that has
been holding up those trains out west
SO look out for me!'
Patrolman George Dahl, who likes to
meet real bad man now and then, was
called in and Ryan was soon disarmed
and locked up in Central station. HI
pleaded guilty today and was sent te
the workhouse for five days. J
