OLD RIVER CHANNEL DISCOVERED
 ON SUNSET CREEK

f Many old timers who have mined in Nome since 1899, hold the theory that a channel will be found to ex- tend from Sunset creek to the sea, passing their opinion upon the fact that Gold Point, which was the rich es, spot ever found on the Nome beach is directly opposite the point at which the creek emerges from the hills. At Gold Point Jack Edwards took out over five thousand dollars in eighteen days, and other miners iii that locality, averaged from one hundred to a thousand dollars a day working with rockers So strong was this theory held at that time that several miners who remained in Nome during the winter staked tundra claims, in that vicinity and sunk shafts at various distances back from the beach in the hope of pick ing up the supposed channel.
 Sunset creek itself was thought to be a rich stream, but development work failed to reveal any pay, but strengthened the theory that the gold had been deposited in the fiat op- pOsite the mouth of the creek. Shafts were sunk in the benches in 1900 to d depth of fifty feet, and gravel was found, but it contained no sedi- ihent, having been washed clean Coarse pieces of gold weighing as much as a dollar were found at in tervals, but it would not pay to work ghe theory then evolved was to the effect that the gravel has shed it's fold, and that it had been deposited .-amewhere in the fiat adjacent tc the foothills.
 Whether or not this theory is fal- lacious will be determined in the next few weeks, as a number Of shafts are nearing bedrock, and if the water can be successfully com. done.

HEALTH OFFICER RusY.

During the last week Health Of ficer Hill has investigated a number of complaints in regard to the con dition of certain back yards, and in an instances the owners of the prop. erty have been requested to clean up the garbage under threat of ar rest. The doctor has spent a very busy time in Investigating back yards on his own account, and as a result of his visits several people have cleaned up. A dumping ground has been established at the mouth of Snake river, and another near the warehouses of the Standard Oil Com. pany.

The so-called third beach line dis covered in the Oakdale claim near Sunset creek, still continues to be a puzzle to the miners who are sink ing in that locality with a view of picking up a continuation of tIC streak. As was told exclusively in this paper some time ago the pay streak is as crooked as the trail of a snake, and while it can easily be followed when once found, it is im- possible to judge with any degree of certainty, where 1t can be picked up on the adjoining claim.
 Experts who have visited the claim hold the opinion that the streak is not iI reality a marine deporlt, but that the gravel was washed by some ancient river. They hold the opin. ion that river formerly flowed from Sunset creek to the sea, and wound it's course along the foothills, proba ply emptying into the sea at a poin' about three miles up Snake river The ancient stream thory is also borne out in the fact that the gravel il nearly all places has the appear ance of river wash and slide, and with the exception of a few isolated places, does not show any of the characteristics of beach grave. l
 The miners who are ehdeavoring to pick up continuation of the pay have been digging on the continual tiol of line drawn from the Ma rine association claim to the dump on the Oakdale claim, but several shafts have been sunk, and it is found that the bedrock Is below the. level Of the bedrock on the two claims on which pay has been dis covered. It is now therefore gen. erally conceded that the streak does not follow in a general straight line, but trends along the contour of tho foothills.

He is ac- companied by H. O. Butler, Arthur Whitehead and pr. Banghart, and as they are all dressed in grass suits they look like so many bales of hay walking along.

Pimples and Blotches.---Dr B. E. Walker, writing in The Ladies' Home Journal, states that facial blemishes come mostly from improper bowel ac- ton. First of all, the cause must be removed by the use of the cathartics and laxatives that the individual has found effective and applying a lotion from the following formula: s'Pre- cipitate. of sulphur, one dram: tinc- ture of 'camphor. one dram; rosewater, four ounces: aply several times day.

We did so, and 1t has now been about four years, and she has never had sign of eczema since. She also used them both about year ago for her scalp. She had very thin hair and Cuticura helped her hair greatly. myself used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura 0int- ment some time ago for falling hair. ! now have a very heavy head of hair and it does not fall out. We used Cuti- cura Remedies. for our baby. who was nearly bald when young. She has very nice hair now.

(Continued From Page One.) was Sweet White, yellow, one-legged negro. who is under constant suspicion by the Montgomery police. White has one of the worst police records in Mont ogmery, and is held by the department to be one of the most dangerous ne- groes in the city, notwithstanding that he is only able to walk with the aid of crutches.
 Coleman and Finley knew each other when they met in the bar. The negro had been in the place throughout the early part of the night, while the white man had been going over other portions of the city. The negro, as he saw the white man enter and recogniz- ed his drunken condition, went to him in an ingratiating and servile manner. He brushed imaginery dirt from the shoulder of the white man saying:
 Boss where have you been? You have got dirt all over you"
 The whiSe man, recognising the me- gro as one he had known. had the bar keeper serve him with drink. Three separate times, Finley bought drinks for the negro, and each time he took drink himself. As Finley disappear ed, staggering out of the front door of the bar. the negro who had been eontented to remain with his negro S1H'P1h'OhSs oitpPto Out oi thS estE door.

 The police of Montgomery yesterday r1nr1ipor O. at A O'r a 1it- tie house on Corhett street. an obscure street filled with negro houses. a short distance from the blood stained clay on which the white man was found
 The police had been looking for Cor hin Coleman. Tho finger of justice had already pointed at the negro who had slipped out the side door of the bar the negro whose reputation was so bad he was thought capable of crime as diaboIicaf as that shown by tho Sunday morning sun. Captain Miles Smith with a detail of policemen had throughout the night, been working on the ter rfble case
 Patrolmen Swearingen and Russell located the house in which Coleman lived. With Patrolman Russell guard ing the rear door. Patrolman Swearing en broke open the front door of the suspected mans home. The supposed murderer a fitful sleeper on that night, heard their stealthv approach. and spranR from the bed in which he was sleeping.

Tn paying for the drinks, Finley pulled out three s bills and a fifty cent piece. The fifty-cent piece dropped out of his hand and rolled on the floor of the bar. He and the negro looked for 1t, but the money was never found. Finley then stuffed the three s5 bills back in his pocket.
 He went out the door shortly after wards. He staggered as he walked :. At the same time Finley went out the front door, the negro went out the side door of the bar.
 "one of the negroes who works In the bar, a negro called Sacks saw Coleman the next morning in res taurant across the street from the bar. Coleman had a bucket of stew in his hand which he had bought at the res taurant. Sacks said to him:
 "NiggerJ the white folks done got dat killin' fixed on you. and you bet ter get away from her. if you kin.
 coleman was so scared he dropped the bucket of stew out of @his hands to the floor. and his knees knocked together"
 B. Helbern. with whom Finley work. ed for four years, positively identified the watch and watch charm which was found on the negro's bureau when he was arrested early Monday morning "The charm was not an emblem of
 
 The charm contained a representation of Worlds Fair building at St. Louis. My little boy gave it as pres ent to Finley. He brought it back with him from a trip to the Worid's Fair and gave 1t to Mir. Finley as q memento of the trip. Mir. Finley was accustomed to take off the watch and the charm and put 1t here In the cash drawer while he was at work. I have seen 1t here in the drawer many limos. and did not hesitate about identify l ing it, when I saw 1t at police head quarters this morning.
 "Mr. Finley worked for me four years. I brought him here from Au- burn. He was industrious, attentive to his duties. and an excellent clerk. He was not habitual drpnkard. I never saw him drunk in my life. and never knew of him to be drunk. l have known of him taking a drink, and he would show in his speech and manner the effect of ono drink.

I discharged him several | times and took him back several times when I was short of help and had to have an additional man. But he was liable to give trouble at any time.
