Discovery claim on Little creek, Nome, is claimed by many mining men to be the richest mining claim ever found in Alaska-in fact in the world. Some of these men state that it is rich.

Every one familiar with mining can realize what it will mean to do away with the melting of snow or the hauling of water for steam, and the cutting of wood, should the electrical thaw point prove success. Already the wood and fuel question is serious problem along Cleary creek.

Resume of the Weeks
Proceedings.
Thursday.

Washington, March 8. - The house
yesterday passed the Indian appropria'
ton bill, carrying s7,7S5.52S. It then
proceeded to tangle itself up over the
bill to abolish the grade of lieutenant
general in the army. The result was
an adjournment for lack of quorum
after members had been locked in the
hall for half an hour and the assistant
sergeant alarms had been scurrying to
the various hotels in search OF mem
bers. The vote to consider the bill
showed an overwhelming sentiment in
it's favor, and as it is the pending
business under call of committees, it
will probably be. reached and passed
in due course.
Yesterday afforded the last oppor-
tunity for general debate in the senate
on the statehood bill and the entire
time of the session was devoted to
that order of business. The whole
time was occupied by three senators,
Mr.. Beveridge, supporting the bill, and
Messrs. McCumber and Patterson OPP
posing 1t.

when sickness overtakes them. Mr..

nected, but the benefit has been OPEN
ed to all the collar workers of Troy.
