NEWS FROM ALASKAN CAMPS.
Several Important New Strikes Re
ported From the North.

ported From the North.
The excellent monthly summary of
progress in Alaska, published by the
Alaska Yukon Magazine this month
is optsmistic. 1t says: News of
new gold strikes in several districts
of the territory sounds a hopeful note
In the events of the summer season.
1t is the fulfillment of many conf
dent predictions and its effect seems
certain to be a widely increased area
of prospecting and another rise of
production. This seasons Alaska
gold output will bring the grand to-
tai up to $1S0,00O, 900, and it is al
most certain that in 1911 the two
hundred million mark will be passed.
1t is not too much to hope, in view
of present developments, the next
years production will be larger than
that of the banner year of 1906 when
$22,000,000 was sent out.
Among the strikes reported there
is a considerable share of gold quartz
| finds, indicating definitely the steady
development of this permanent form
of wealth production. Nevertheless
the reports from new placer ground
show that the end of the Alaskan
places is still too far off to be visible
to the naked eye.
''The facts about the Iditarod are
now apparent from the numerous re.
liable reports that have been receiv-
ed. That the camp is a rich one Is

Odd Name.

J. NJ. Shepherd of Knob Noster
writes the Star concerning the origin
of his towns name: Mob Noster is
situated at the foot Of two beautiful
hills. or knobs in the western ver-
nacular. These knobs are green and
grassworn to their SUBMITS and rise
out of a fat prairie. from which they
can be seen for many miles. When
the village was founded in the early
fifties a schoolhouse was built and an
eastern schoolmaster was employed
TO teach a pay-school When he ar
rived at his place Of employment he
was struck with the beauty of the
knobs. and being exceedingly proud OF
his knowledge of Latin dubbed them
Knobs Noster' or Our Knobs The
villagers were struck with the name
and named their town after The desig-
nation of their Lat;l-loving schoolmas-
ter. The process Of time seems to
have worn the $ from 'Knobs.'-Kan-

BABY PLANETS NUMEROUS
Asteroids, All Moving In Orbits Be-
tween Those Of Mars and Jupi-
ter, Number $50.

IT is related that when the one hun
dredth asteroid, or minor planet, was
discovered, many years ago, certain as
tronomers organized celebration of
the event and that while the solemni-
ties were in preparation two or three
more asteroids were picked out in the
sky by the diligent observers.
These bodies, so far as recognized
and Off cially mapped, now number $50.
They all move in orbits between those
Of Mars and Jupiter and may be eth
er the debris of ruined planet or the
results of an abortive attempt Of ma
ture to form a planet
The DEVELOPMENT of astronomical
photography has added large numbers
of these minor planets to our lists. In
the Harvard observatory at Arequipa.
Peru, sixty-four separate asteroids
were photographed between 1898 and
1901. and forty-seven of these were
new discoveries.
As may be imagined. the number OF
these bodies is now so large that It is
a difficult matter to tell whether one
of them is new or is to be identified
with a previous discovery. In several
instances mistakes of this kind already
have been made. The swarm Of plane
toids is a numerous one. and it has be-
come kind of astronomical sport TO
pursue them and pick them out.
As instruments become more power
ful and methods more delicate the
smaller bodies of the group will be de-
tected one by one and added TO our
charts. The exact value of such dis
coveries TO the science of astronomy.
however, is somewhat problematical.
