MONTREAL. Nov. 16--The -'lUst for

can mining expert, who reached here to
day from the north. brought word OF
the death OF at least score Of pros
pectOrs on the trails south of the Por-
cUpine-
Swamps Caused By Rains.
The trouble is due to succession Of
cold rains that have swept the region
for the last month Great deep lakes
have formed south OF Frederick House
lake Hundreds OF feet Of the trails
have been rendered impassabIe. and
what a month ago was solid territory is
today a dangerous swamp land

miners engulfed in the swamp, and
they sank TO a miserable death while
their companions stood by unable 70 get

news OF the rich strikes at Porcupine

These men are the worst sufferers The
country Is rich in gold and nothing else
There Is absolutely no game there, and

the technical side, says the perform

railroad ever constructed. on a track the
length Of the Savannah course, and with
but two turns, could not equal the time
Of the winning car in the race. In COM

try gives his unqualified Endorsement Of
