 Sound Copper

Developments in Prince William Sound during the present season have opened the eyes of the min- ing world as never before to the richness of the copper deposits.
 There has been more legitimate mining done within. the past year than in all the years previous; a great deal of ore has been uncov- cred and the permanence of the deposits proved to satisfying de- gree. Mining experts and eastern capitalists are hocking into the country and many properties of promise are being bonded or sold.
 A tour of the Sound at this time will prove of great interest to those engaged in mining. Leaving Valdez. Glacier Island is first en- countere,l. A great deal of develop ment has been done this year on properties which have been located for some time, the new stimulus being given by the general pros perity of properties in the district; few or no failures having been

Wreck of Oregon

The Oregon went ashore on Hinchinbrook island east of Cape Hinchinbrook Thursday night at II o'clock and will be total loss All of the passengers were saved, leaving the Oregon in small boats and being picked up by the light house tender Columbine, which brought them to Valdez Satur- day. The mail and baggage was all saved.
 Second mate Kinney, quarter master and three sailors left the steamer soon after she struck and came to town for assistance. The cutters Rush and McCulloch left immediately for the scene.
 There was no panic at the time of the wreck, the best of discipline being maintained by the captain. Owing to the heavy swell which generally prevails where the Ore gon struck there is no chance of the boat being saved. Her bottom is partly broken off now and the first swell which raises will break her up entirely.
 The Rush visited the wreck Saturday and the officers spent several hours aboard, securing the second class mail and the safe which was in the purser's room. At that time the water was within four feet of the saloon deck, cover ing most of the freight.
 Passengers on the i'll -fated boat say that there was no confusion when the boat struck. The crer', under orders from the captain, got all the people in the saloon, counted them and then gave the women quarters in the captains room, where hot coffee was served The only hardship experienced by the passengers was in going to the Columbine in the small boats when some were wet by the spray
 No attempt was made to launch the boats until daylight, though everything was got in readiness As soon as it was light enougl to see five boat loads were started out to find place to get ashore and they went several mile. along the coast before sighting the Col umbine, which picked them uI and then proceeded to near the wreck and took off the balance O. the passengers and the crew in tn, small boats.
 Resolutions were drawn up anC signed by all the passengers thank ing Captain Chas. Richardson, O. the Columbine and Captain Soul' of the Oregon, for the care and attention given them and ths measures taken to insure theil safety.
