 a definite line dividing mines from prospects is the fact that practically every mine is in part prospect. Until all the ground included in mining property and likely to contain com- mercial ore has been opened up and de- veloped, the mine is prospect to the extent of it's undeveloped ground. There may be, and very often are, good reasons for expecting to find ore in the undeVeloped ground, but this ground is nevertheless prospect, and that part of the price which the undeveloped ground represents is a more or less speculative venture.-Minlng Science.
 The most striking example of what railroad transportation can do for Alas ka, and will do in the next ten years, is furnished by the Copper River & Northwestern railway, which is pio" neer in the field of Alaskan develop ment and has already constructed 1O2 miles of high class road, and will have completed 198 miles by the close of the present year. Not only has this rail- road constructed one of the most beau- tifuI scenic lines on the American con- tinent, but at the same time it is build ing commercial railroad, with water level grades, light curvatures, fully ballasted roadbed, immense steel bridges, and all of the best working de- tails of railroads to be found in the Western half of the United States.
 The official visit of Judge Cushman and his party to the west, Alaska's long neglected region, has had splen- did influence for good, according to reports which reach Seward. Many petty cases were disposed of which would not justify the large expense in- volved in trying them in Valdez. New citizens by the score were taken i'll un" der the American flag, adequate in- structions given to United States com. missioners, and the voyage of the of-
 icers of the law has had a wholesome effect generally. This is not meant to imply that residents of the west are less orderly and less law abiding than those living in other parts of the coun- try. On the contrary, considering the cosmopolitan population of the region and it's remoteness from courts and court adjuncts, the prevalence of crime is very small indeed. Seward Gateway.
 The Cordova North Star, in it's Ka, talla notes, says: Chief Engineer Gabriel, of the Ryan company at Pile driver point, has doubled his engineer" ing party within the past week and is now working in the vicinity of Still water and the Cunningham coal prop critics. It is generally believed here that the Ryan company is subsidiary Morgan Guggenheim company. The local company, in addition to building a railroad to the coal fields, plans to dredge a deep channel from Kanak harbor, which, according to U, s. chart issued March 10. 1910, is second to none on the Pacific coast, to the grass flats opposite Chilcat. This will do away with the building of three-mile trestls and the materials removed will prove of more value for filling the terminal grounds than the cost of dredging. It seems to be the prevailing opinion that the government will soon inaugurate 8 more just policy in Alaskan affairs, hence the renewal of activity ip ths Ryan camp.

Mir. c. B. Walker, register of the U. s. land office at Juneau, and Miss Maud Thornton, of Lane, Idaho, were married at Juneau, Friday evening, August 26th.
 John Rosene, former head of the Gug genheim interests in Alaska, is cOntem plating constructing sixty miles of railroad into the territory lying north west of Skagway.
 The Tanana Leader says that on the occasion of their first pay day, soldiers shipped from Arkansaw got full on booze at 25 cents per, kicked in doors and swore like thunder.
 Unless the canneries of Southeastern Alaska make some increased packs, the salmon output of Alaska will be con- siderably less this year than last. The pack of the nineteen canneries in Bris- tol bay was 834, ,OOO cases, against 1,147,- 595 cases last year.
 In the case of Phillips vs. the Copper River railway and the Guggehheims, tried at Seward, the jury brought in a verdict awarding Sl5OOO damages to the plaintiff. The case grew out of the Keystone canyon racket, in which Phil lips was shot in the heel.
 Louis Johnson, young electrician of the Tanana, has invented and prac- tically perfected system of wireless telephony. He has interested Edison in the contrivance and is now on his way East to perfect bis invention in Edison's shops at Newark, N. J.
 Nellie Waters, whose real name was Nellie Meyer, who died recently in San Francisco, wilIed her property and ef- fects to her brother, Daniel Franklin Carlton. The deceased had two cabins on waterfront in Seward, diamonds of much value and other jewelry.-Gate- way.
 Twenty seven families of Indians re- siding at Metlakahtla have decided to withdraw from the Father Duncan colony and establish settlement of their own. They have appealed to the superintendent of native schools in Alaska for teacher, saying that their children are growing up in ignorance.
 Joseph E. Hubbard, a boy of four teen, left his home in Dorchester, Mass, with the avowed intention of do- ing missionary work among the h. dians.

 There is rumor that the steamer Oorwin may change hands. Since she left the North, residents of Nome, St. Michael and Kotzebue have already sent letters of inquiry regarding her future movements, declaring that they miss her regular To-day mail calls. The Corwin has carried the mails between Nome and Kotzebue for five years.
 Sir Wilfred Laurier, premier of Can ada, paid Prince Rupert visit on the 10th inst. He was greeted by five h. dian bands playing and coco citizens of Northern British Columbia. The new city, which owes it's existence to the railway policy of the premier, who de- clared that the building of the Grand Trunk Pacific was the cTowning dream of his life, was handsomely decorated in honor of the visit.

Historic Bonanza creek is presenting greater activity this season than for years. Not only are all of the giant gold saving machines of the Yukon Gold company, which means five dredges and three of the finest modern electrical elevators at work, but more of the company hydraulic properties are being operated than at any time heretofore, and, besides, there is no small amount of individual mining be- ing carried on.
 l.. l.. Bales, who boasts an exhaustive knowledge of the Northland, writes ! the Seattle cham Der of commerce that the Kuskokwim river is naVigable at the present time for ocean-going yes. sells of 1000 tons burden, and will be open to much larger vessels when the river is properly surveyed and marked. He reports several new strikes in that country this season, one sixty miles above Bethel. An immediate survey of the river is urged.
 The street rumors that the Copper River & Northwestern railway would likely close down this winter since the price of securing coal from British Columbia and the outside would cause it to run at considerable loss, was put to route yesterday by Chief Engineer Hawkins declaring that the road would operate every day, weather permitting. The company expects to get the mail contract to Chitina. It is building ad. ditional snowsheds and does not an ticipate any serious trouble in keeping the road open all winter-North Star. 1 The fool statement being made by General Maus, of the United States Army, who made trip of inspection down the Yukon and to all the posts in Alaska, since returning to the outside are wonderful to contemplate. Among other things he says 5000 people will starve in the Iditarod the coming win ter unless they are aided by the gov ernment; also, he advocates pensioning Malamute and Husky dogs worn out in the army service. Taking his Vaporings as a whole, people who do not know that General Maus was in the Philip pines for a season, would infer that his military training was obtained from the Scranton, Pa, correspondence school. His stories sound like the cheehaco yarns of l3 years ago.-Whitehorse Star.
 AS the result of an interview with an official of the Alaska Treadwell Gold Mining company, O. J. Jones, traffic manager of the Alaska Steamship com pany, says that there is no truth in the report that the mining company is to establish boat service to handle all it's own traffic and compete for the Alaska business. It was rumored that the Alaska Treadwell company was to absorb smaller line, presumably the Humboldt, and add several new boats. "I talked the matter over with MT. Bradley, of San Francisco" said MT. Jones. "I have mislaid his card, but l believe he was vice president of the the company. At any rate, he controls considerable stock and is an official in the company ranking above the general manager. He assured me that the com pany was not contemplating going into the steamship business, had not even considered it, in fact,"-P.-I.
