KODIAK MINE
 LOOKS GOOD

George Moss, an old time miner and prospector, arrived here recently from the westward, and will remain for several weeks.
 Moss came to Alaska in 1893 as representative of a California mining company, and located a gold quartz ledge on Kodiak island that year. He returned to California with samples of the ore, an assay of which gave returns so unsatisfactory to the com pany as to cause them to abandon the claims.
 Returning to Kodiak in 1894 Moss located the claims in his own name, and has been doing assessment work on them every year since that time, with encouraging prospects, the ledge having widened to about eight feet end giving assays of from S2 to $2O per ton in gold-V.aldez Prospector.
