MINES AND MINING.

p T. Rowe, bishop of the Episco-
palian church for the territory of Alas
ka, who arrived in Seattle Sunday
from the north on the Yukon, brings
the first detailed authentic information
regarding the big gold strike on Nolan
creek, at the head of the KOyukuk
river, Bishop Rowe was in the Nolan
camp when the strike was made and
washed out $500 pans on the Olsen
claim with his own hands and saw
pans washed out that ran as high as
$500. Nolan creek is only about 200
miles from the Arctic ocean, and there
were only 125 men in the camp when
Bishop Rowe left for the outside. The
strike was made at a depth of about
$50 feet, and about $64 900 had been
washed out by crude operations. II is
estimated that the cleanup at the end
Of this summer will reach 81 600 900.
New strikes and mine development
in the Rawhide district IN Nevada dur
ing the last week have more than
doubled the proved area and pro
ducuve possibilities of that district,
according to later reports.
II is said William ID. Haywood, for
many years secretary and trtasurer
Of the Western Federation of Miners,
has been Ousted from the executive
board OF the organization by the mem
beers OF that body. Announcement Of
this action appeared officially in the
statement that was published in the
official organ Of the federation, the

TOWN SWEPT UNDER
SLIDE HITS QUEBEC VILLAGE
WITH FATAL RESULTS.
Thirty Of the Population OF Notre
Dame de Salette Known to Have
Persisted - Those Who Escaped
Were Found Panic Stricken and
Preparing to Leave.

Buckingham, Quebec. April 2S.-
Half the little French hamlet of Notre
Dame dc Salette, 16 miles from here
on the Lievre river, disappeared Sun
day under a sliding mountain and at
least 30 OF its small population are
known to have persisted.
The river Lievre winds at the foot
OF the hamlet and a mountain towers
behind II. Heavy rains for days have
been melting snow and ice on the
mountainside and streams have been
coursing down to the river. AT 8
o'clock this morning. just as the little
hamlet began to stir for early mass,
part OF the mountain started TO slide
toward the river. IL tore a pathl OF
death and destruction in its way and
those who were not killed when their
homes were engulfed were left buried
under the mass of rock and earth.
Camille Lapoint's house stood first in
the path Of the avalanche. He and
his family OF II are known to have
persisted. Eight others, whose names
have not been obtained, are missing
and the rescuers are attempting 10 find
definitely how many more are missing.
Mrs. Desjardino's cottage also was
swept away and she and her two chill
dren, a domestic and hired man are
known 10 be buried In the landslide.
