SINKING ON BIG
 QUARTZ DEPOSIT

Colin Murray and Roland Suth- erland have crew of men en. gagged in sinking on the deposit of quartz which they recently un- covered near the Bourbon creek dredge. The shaft is now down to depth of 76 feet, but as the top of the rock lies at depth of 62 feet below the surface, they have taken out but very little ore. The rock is being sacked ready for shipment to the smelter at Tacoma, where a test will be made this fall. If the returns are satisfactory, considerable de- velopment work will be done this winter. - Nome Nugget, Oct. 23.

four years ago. Above all, it means that if the Chandlar is to become a quartz mining region the ore will be free milling. Though with the attain ment of depth the ore might become base, in the earlier and more trying stages of development it would be of a character permitting quick returns for the labor expended.
 With the success of quartz mining in the Chandlar prospecting for quartz would be stimulated north of the Yu- kon river: especially in the country adjoining the Koyukuk placers, where the possibility of quartz values has never been seriously considered.
 For more than two years it has been known that s. J. Marsh was pinning his faith to the Chandlar as quartz region. He is experienced and has studied the scientific side of prospect ing, being geologist of considerable reputation. He went outside last sum- mer, and it was generally rumored that he will bring in mill next year. He has packers in New York.
 Mir. Marsh became interested in the Chandlar through circumstances con trary to his own will. He went to the Arctic coast to pursue an investigation of locality he had previously visited and which he believed promised pay in gold. He expected to connect with an adequate outfit contracted to be left by the steamer Robert Dollar at Herschel island. The steamer failed to appear and he had to walk to the Yukon river, 800 miles away, to avoid starvation. Late in the summer of 1906 he arrived at Fort Yukon and there first heard of the big placer stampede that had then been overrunning the Chandlar for several months.
 Going on to Fairbanks, Mir. Marsh was appointed United States commis- sioner by Judge Wickersham and es- tablished headquarters at Caro-. When the placer excitement subsided and the population dwindled. he stayed on and consistently prospected.
 900
 The Chandlar as placer field was q disappointment. The ground was deep, sometimes wet, and the erosion appears to have been insufficient to concentrate the widely distributed gold: at least no raystreak was found.

ChandIar Quartz
Mortared and Famed, It Yields Grubstakes and Makes
 Fort Yukon the Lvest Place the River

To spea; of Fort Yukon as the livest place on the river seems Imaginable. Yet that is what they are doing on the upper reaches of the American Yukon just now.
 Tie reason is in the quartz of the Chandlar.
 Allen Jordan, the carrier running out of Panama on the Tanana-Eagle mail service, brought down very flat tering report of the quartz outlook last week, and said people up the river are very enthusiastic over the prospect.
 As is not unusual at this season of the year, upon arrival at Rampant MT. Jordan found that the carrier on the run next above that point (Ed Bieder- man) had failed to get in and he had to continue on up the river At Salt creek he met Carrier Clement Ander- son coming down, who had unknowing- ly passed Bederman going up, so the two last named had to do each others runs. Anderson, being direct from Fort Yukon, knew all the latest news from the Chandlar.
 He said that when he left Fort Yu- kon dozen or more quartz prospectors were there buying supplies and paying for them with gold they had mortared and banned from the big ledge in which s. J. Marsh is interested in ex- plotting on the Chandlar. They had averaged from $3 to $5 a day in this manner for some time. One man hal averaged $5 day with nothing better than mortar 8 inches in diameter.
 The men said the ledge had been traced for several miles, and that there is a working face now opened up fully IS feet wide.
 The importance of this news, even if only approximately true: can scarcely be over estimated. It means that in its quartz the Chandlar may possess q far more valuable asset than was hoped for by the most sanguine of the placer prospec,ors who sta,npeded the region

GRACE EVELYNA IS
 MUCHLY MARRIED

Kansas City, Sept. 23.-Being a bride is no novelty for Mrs. Grace Evelyna Ritter Clancy Oring Wheeler Hout Chapman. She has been at the bride busi- ness for 12 years, having during that time taken unto herself six better halves. If Mrs. Chapman had hesitated before she changed her name from Hout to Chapman on Sep tember 1 all might have been well. As it is, she faces charge of bigamy. She was arraigned this afternoon. Her trial was set for September 30. Unable to furnish $500 bond, she went to jail.
 About a week ago Chapman set about to investigate his wife's trunk. Among other things he came upon five certificates, printed and filled out, much like the one he received when he be- came a Benedict. Chapman took the certificates to the prosecu. tors office. His wife was sent for, and she told the story of her many marriages. The prosecu- tor took her statement and she swore to it.
 My name is Grace Evelyna 1 Chapman. I have been married six times. I am P years old. |
 I married Frank Ritter in Pa. ola, Kan, when I was 15 years old. I lived with him one year. Il married James Chaney in Butler, Mo-, about 1902, and lived with him one day. ..... 1 II married Edmond Oring in Kansas City-don't just remem- Der the year--and lived with him for two years. ...>.:..
 I married Martin Wheeler in Jasper county in 1903, and lived with. him about six months.
 I married w. c. Hout in 1906 in Kansas City, and lived with him two days.
 T married Fred Chapman in Kansas City September 1.
 I am not divorced from any of these men that I know of. I have never been served with any papers for divorce, and have never applied for one myself.
 No more matrimony for me-" said Mrs. Take Your. o Own- Choice. All the men I married were bad bargains. I liked Oring best, but it seems he got mixed up with the chasing end of furni- ture house or something like that and had to shoo. I lived with him two years. James Chaney lasted only two hours. I left him that long after the cere, mony. I was born in Kansas City, and have lived.sm of my life on farms. Most of my hus- bands were farmers or worked on farms at the time we were married. I have done farm work most of my life, having lived in Cass, Bates and Jackson coun ties. My stepfather, Perry Rits ter, used to live in Austin, Mo. He lives now at 721 Independ- ence road, Sheffield.
 Chapman told the prosecutor that he married Grace Evelyne three weeks ago, after an ac- quaintance of three months. He said she told him nothing about her past. He said he would pros ocute the woman.

Not content with the decision hand

in the case of the Walla Walla Meat
& Cold Storage company against O.

to the superior court by the company.
The case is one of long standing
and was precipitated by the plaintiff
sueing Gibson for $685. which it is
alleged he owed for certain goods sup
piled. A counter claim was then filed
by the defendant for $1S3.33. this being
the amount that he claimed was owing

sustained in part, by the justice Of the
peace. who granted his claim for 500,
