who is only two and one-half years of age,
was playing about. The father had left
the room for minute when he heard a

MINES IN INTERIOR
 SHOWING UP WELL

Glowing reports of the future prom ised the copper properties in the in- terior are brought to Valdez by Frank Eccles who arrived last night from the Lathrop property in the Kotsina country. Eccles says that not only is the Lathrop property all that past belief has held for it but that the McCarty property on Nugget creek, the Scotty Crawford, the Sheehan and the Almond properties are all showing up well.
 On the McCarty property thirteen me n are at work and the other prop critics are being developed in good shape. In at the Hubbard and Elliott property great preparations are un- der way for winter work.
 Eccles says that the eleven men who h ave been at work on the Latin rop property have made fine show ing and that his purpose in coming out is to take in an expert as there is now no doubt of the character of the mine. Eccles and the expert expect to start in to the mine tomorrow.

NOW
 FINEST IN ALASKA

After two days of endeavor under or less chaos Postmaster Jefferson
 today is receiving congratulations on
 being the man in charge of the finest
 appearing postoilice in Alaska; and
 those who pronounce this opinion de-
 clare that they have seen enough of
 the territory 10 be certain whereof they speak. There is yet little work
 to be done before everything is as it is intended to be but this will take only d short time.
 The new partitions not only add
 greatly to the appearance of the post office department of the Owl Drug Company building, but make things much more convenient both for the patrons and the office force. Each of the various branches of the postal business can now be handled without
 interference from some other branch. With the exception of the portion of the partition in which are the win dows the construction work was done by the Alaska Construction Company. The company made all the boxes and the face of the partition, which had
 to be matched with the parts brought from the east. There are 900 boxes, twenty of them being of extra large
 size, forty medium and the other 2I0 of the regulation size for individu-
 al business. Formerly there were 150
 boxes and Postmaster Jefferson be- licVcd that in increasing the number
 to 300 he was making ample provision
 for several years ahead. In this he
 made q poor estimate, however, for even now there are only a few boxes
 left untaii"u, bat tn" number can be
 increased With Iii.! t'puDlc.
 Tn" new boxes are provided with
 combination lnr.i1 and now the prin- cipal form of diversion iH to go to the postOtlicc and practice with the me chanism SO that there will be no de- lay in case the combination is left at home.
 The total expense of the improve
 mcnts will approximate $1.00O.

original discovery on this was made by Charles Schlosscr in Juno 1907. He evidently made q tcn-strikc, though he seems to have selected an unnecessarily steep hill on which to plant his bonanza. However it is only 700 feet high and all aerial tram will make it easily accessible. The property is less than mile from tho bay by the trail
 Additional locations havo been made on the Fidalgo-A com pany's hill until the group now cm- braces nineteen claims. Just how many veins are in this group seems uncertain but they crop out at differ ent levels in half q dozen distinct lodges. All these have been traced by tunnels and open cuts under the direction of Superintendent c. w.. Harrington and ore deposits exposed which satisfy all mining men that the hill is full of copper.
 Twelve assays made this week from as many different places in tho ledges show results running from t0.t per cent copper to t.91 per cont, with an average of about 10por cont. Nearly all of these are from veins from Ghreo to seven feet wide.
 Other good properties have been developed on Fidalgo bay, notably that of T. W. 'Blakney, but little work is in progress now.
 The copper orc of tho Sound is practically all chalcopyrite, though occasional stringers of bornitc, glance and blue and green carbonate arc found
