 In the old days the men mined In the summer time only. and spent their winters in Circle un it was time to freight he summer supplies over the hill. but now much winter mining is done mostly with wood fires, as steaU thawing is not very successful on ac- count of the pay running SO far into bedrock.

Clark and Wilson are drilling away at their East Fork property MT. Clark came in from the Dolly B. mine last night and reports every thing looking good out there. They are now in some distance on the lead and will soon start crossouttng. The ore looks better all the time, he says. and they feel very good over their prospect which is rapidly becom ing a mine
 From the tests so far shown on this lead it promises to be one Of the banner gold producing mines in Alas ka. That the ore is free milling is other big thing in its favor There are other good leads on the East Fors of the Skagway river that will soon be the scene of activity in the way of development work.

train on the Bernice Branch of the
Lehigh Valley Railroad covered
several miles Of rack in about as
many minutes. A short distance
below Satterfeld near the horse
shoe curve the train began to gain
speed owing to defective air brake
connections and in a short time
was going at terrific pace. Brake
men in the caboose endeavored to
crawl over the cars to set the
wheel brakes but were unable to
do so. Before the Dushore trestle
was reached the cabOose was cut
loose from the rest of the train
which in short time had gone
from sight, tearing across the
trestle at about As miles an hour.
A short distance below Dushore the
train was again brought under con-
troll and no damage resulted from
the wild trip.

The Celebration.

The glorious Fourth of July
celebration in Laporte was q de-
cided success despite the fac. that
the new power boat was not afioat
on it's maiden journey owing to
the fact that the engine did not
arrive in time to be installed.
The parade and exercises in the
high school auditorium were car
ried out in a very creditable man
ner by the participants, in the
forenoon. The afternoon was
given to sports at the lake and a
base ball game on the athletic
grounds between Hughesville and
Laporte. which resulted very dis
asterously to the Laporte { >1am,
the score being 10 to l in favor of
Hughesville. Still the game had
many good plays that kept the in
terest of the onlookers. Al
All day the bathing beach was
crowded with those who sought
comfort in the waters of Lake
Mokoma and the lake itself was
we'll covered with row boats and
canoes. The big merry-go-round
furnished amusements for both
young and old and those who pre-
ferred dancing were welcomed to
the dance pavilion by good
orchestra. The Hughesville band
furnished creditable music both at
the lake and in Laporte. The dis
play of fire works at the lake in
the evening was very liberal and
of good variety.
Taking everything into consider
alton the celebration was a credit
to the Lake Mokoma Company
and others who worked to make it
success and it can be truthfully
asserted that those who came to
Laporte for good outing and en-
joyable Fourth on the mountain
top, were given more than the
worth of their time and money.
