amount of dirt banned out between s and 10 cents.
 An association claim has been staked and the proposition will be prospected. It is thought all of the gold banned by MT. and Mrs. Dundas came from the handful of dirt taken from the face of the hill. The streak from which it was gouged has for long time been known to contain gold and it has been believed by some that an old channel extends through the big ridge from the Yukon to Hunter creek.
 It is at least beyond question that the outcrop of gold-bearing gravel on the Yukon has shown enough of the yellow metal to justify thorough prospecting.
 Two men have been put to work. The work at present being carried on is merely of a superficial nature. it can not at present be stated whether boiler will soon bc Pu, on anal work be begun In earnest or not.

The steamboat man said the telegram was only sent after he had talked to dozens of prospectors, and he thought it would be kindness to keep others from going there. He met boat loads of people, most of them headed for Nome, who are leaving the country for good.
 The Times learned that there is but one man in the country working for wages, and he is employed on discovery, Gainas creek. A little gold is being taken from Is below, on the same creek. Some of the other miners are working the rimrock in the hopes of securing enough to pay their passage out of the country. One man from Nome located 83 claims and after prospecting some of the most likely left the country dis gusted. Folger creek is a frost. The steamer Tana met boat after boat load returning down the river, and they all shouted to those struggling up stream to go back.

Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Dundas, of Illinois, came in on the Sarah last Fri day and are the guests of MT. and Mrs. Heeter. The visitors were in Rampant and made many friends last summer.
 Mir. and Mrs Dundas had an interest ing experience last Saturday, and one that may result in great financial bene- fit. They went up to the high bluff on the Yukon above the Indian village. Mir. Dundas climbed up the steep bluff to the place where the prominent dark streak shows in the face of the hill. He had heard that the streak contains gold, and with a sharp stone he gouged out q double handful of dirt.

James Langford is showing some of the most singular mineral specimens that have been found by any prospector in this part of the country.
 The specimens were obtained in a creek about l25 miles down the Yukon. They are indigo blue, about the consist eney of chalk, and make marks similar to those of blue pencil when drawn across board. Small glistening white particles may be seen upon close exam ination. No one who has seen the specimens has ycnturcd an opinion as to what they are. It Is NIT.

When James Langford arrived from Panama and lower river points Monday morning he was asked about the Innoko
 ''It is generally considered frost" he said.
 The little steamer Tana arrived at Panama last week from the Innoko and Captain Langley gave very gloomy account of conditions in the country. Mir. Langford could see no reason why a steamboat man would knock the coun- try unless the facts warranted it. He said the people of Panama generally took the same view of the matter.
 However, Commissioner w. B. Ballou, who came up from Panama last Friday, had heard that work was beiNg carried on from l2 below to 20 above, Gaines creek. According to what the commis sioner heard, the men were trying to get water onto the bars, and some money was being taken out.
 The Fairbanks Times of July 20 states that many of those now leaving the Innoko doubt if the district will ever make good. They say there is no mica schist formation, that nothing has been found worth while, and that even the quartz found is likely to prove blow

 When the deputy marshal approached the soldier ''ducked' behind building and emerged frem the other side, with the evident intention of getting the drop on the deputy also.
 Nautier was on the lookout for this move and shot Upchurch through the left side. The wound is painful, but not dangerous.
