Miner Patents Piece of Ground Over
looked by Famous Company.

Sioux Falls, S. D.-John Johnston,
a former resident of western South
Dakota, according TO letters which
have been received from Juneau,
Alaska, where he now is, has Struck
it rich" and is in fair way to be-
come millionaire.
He at present is having a contest in
the courts with the famous Treadwell
Mining company over a strip of valu-
able mining ground which the COM
pany was supposed to own, but which
it is alleged was never properly loca-
ted. Johnston located the strip under
the mining laws of the district and
applied for patent. but this was held
up and delayed by various court pro-
cesses until recently, when the appli-
cation for the patent was granted.
The railroad of the Treadwell COM
pany, par( of one of the company's
great mills, and some new oil tanks
belonging to the company are all on
the strip of ground to which Johnston
has obtained a patent. The strip is
between the big dividend payers of
the Treadwell company, and It was a
serious proposition to the company to
learn that so valuable piece OF
mining property had been overlooked
In addition to this strip, Johnston
has received patent for a group OF
copper claims on Kouperinoff island
for which he has been offered the sum
of $4,000. He also has recently con
cluded a sale of some property on
Douglas island for $l50,000. Johnston
announces that he will make visit
to his old home in South Dakota this
summer

a well-known skin disease, which the
physicians found difficult to cure. Her

foolhardiness of buying sweatshop

at once apparent.

wonder that one-seventh of the entire
