TREASURE FOUND
 NEAR OTTAWA, CANADA

Horace w. Boucher has received q clipping from the Ottawa Press telling of lucky find of money made near his old home. The village of March is four teen miles from Ottawa. Says the clip ping:
 We are in receipt of the following report of find of hidden money in March, which no doubt has recently "leaked' out, and We give it to our readers just as our correspondent gives it to us
 ''There is an old saying that the early bird catches the worm, but the late one gets it this time About twelve months ago one of our highly respected residents, who is noted for his hard work and industry, was caring for the comfort of his livestock in the way of providing comfortable quarters for them by banking up his outbuildings to keep out Jack Frost, late in the evening when the stars were twinkling, and thinking 1t would be the last opportunity he would have to use the spade and shovel for that season, as the north wind was very keen. After completing his work on the outbuildings he thought of sec ond house on the farm that would need banking for the winter, although not occupied at the time, thinking some one might drop along and rent it before spring, he would secure the cellar and make it frost proof While finishing up his work at the northwest corner of the building where there had formerly been q kitchen or woodshed his spade turned up q wooden box about 10 inches long by four inches deep. The end fell out of the box when small paper parcels rolled out. It being after twilight, he lit match and to his astonishment gazed on ten rolls of paper money, each roll con taining $l00 in $l0 and B bills, neatly tied up with woolen yarn. He made no delay in gathering up the greenbacks, and shouldered his spade and shovel and made tracks for his house, where most of the family had retired for the night when he disclosed the find to his wife. When the rolls of bills were un- fured there were in one roll $45 useless, as the bills had got wet and the num- bers were gone, caused by the cave drop of the house coming in contact with the box in the ground, as it was in a slanting position"

WHY NOT?

If Rampant citizens mutt be taxed to the utmost anyhow, why not take steps to incorporate the town and keep some of the money at heme?
 Ohena started in the new year with $l2,00O in the treasury every cent of which would have been lost to the com munity if Cinema had not incorporated
 It would appear that the camp has everything to gain and nothing to lose by incorporation. Will residents think the matter over?

LIFE OF PLACER CAMPS
Erroneous Impression That None But Hapd-Roek Mines Give Sta
 bility to a Country.
tFrom the Slxagway Alaskan

the SkUENtN AIaSkhh.l
 Juneau tories, in their effort to belittle every part of Alaska except their own door yard, say that Fairbanks and Nome are erhemeral They call them "ay-by-nghts, '" and predict their downfall in a few short years. it is favorite expression with them that the life of placer camp is but five years.
 How unwarranted by the facts are such statements Is clear to any one W ho examines those facts.
 California has many placer camps that have been active and thriving towns for more than half century. Their gold out put is several times greater than the quartz output of southeastern Alaska. The placer camps of Oregon were not discovered as eariy as were those of California, but many of them are still good towns. and they are still putting out gold ip great quantities, as they have been putting n out for forty years.
 CaFihoo and C1ssiar, discovered decades ago. are stiil producing camps. Only recently ths GugEsnheiW- invested more than sl.o .oaa- eeo in some Cassiar placer properties that have been eorksd fur a third of a century snsl thea snms.
