GOOD LOOKING
QUARTZ

Some samples of rock brought to
Cordova by DR.. Chase from the head
of the Kotsina, towards Mt. Wran-
CELL have created a sensation in min
ing circles.
1t contains silver and lead and as
says over $500 to the ton in silver
The rock is a hard, glare white
quartz streaked with dark and what
appears to be deep ultramarine blue.
The doctor traced the ledge a dist
ance of $500 feet and put in blast
of powder from which the present
samples were taken and he has Sc
cured an option on the property.
When DR.. Chase passed through
Chitina on his way there and was in
terviewed by a Chitina Leader re-
porter, he would say nothing about
his mission. He carried the samples
in a pack over 80 miles, and soon
after he reached the railroad at mile
LAG received a telephone about the
fatal accident at Chitina and i'm
mediately proceeded there without
rest or sleep.
The rich samples and the appar-
ent extent of the ledge is but an
other indication of the mineral
wealth tributary to the railroad.
Even with the small amount of pros
pecting done, when the extent of the
territory to be covered is consid
cred. sensational finds have been
made which will certainly cause a
mining boom sooner or later.

Rains in the valleys, snow in the
mountains and the elements playing
upon the glaciers have raised the
Copper river higher than known be-
fore in the memory of white man.
AS a result of the high water, ten
bents of the bridge across the Cop
per river the other side of Chitina
have been washed out and the bridge
is in danger unless the high water
recedes. Cars of rock were moved
on it to help hold it down. 1t will
be impossible to get any trains over
the structure until it is repaired.
Above Abercrombie canyon the
Copper river forms an immense lake,

BOSTON CAPITALISTS
OPERATE ON BIG SCALE

A special train arrived from Ken
in a party of Capitalists and excur-
sionists. Among them were c. r.
Beresford, Maurice Cockerell, of Lon
don, C. H. Kearney and Mrs. Kear-
ney, of New York, Mrs. Cresson, of
San Antonio, Texas; Murray F. Cros-
settle. of Chicago; Miss Dora Keen,
and Albert Andres, of Marysyille,
Cal.
Messrs. Kearney and Cockerell
stated that they were in the north
simply as tourists, having been on a
visit to the Westward as far as Sew
ard, and they did not care to leave
Alaska without seeing the advertis-
ed wonderland along the line of the
Copper River & Northwestern rail-
way. They stopped off at Miles
glacier long enough to watch the
giant glaciers perform, and were pro-
nounced in their praise of this mar
vel of nature.
Mr.. Crossette is of the opinion
that there will be a large tourist

ANOTHER SHIPPER OF
HIGH GRADE COPPER

George ]. Love, accompanied by

critics known as the McCarty group,
passed through here recently on their
way to Visit the property. The COM

Spirit Mountain and Nugget creek.
The men will examine the property
with a view of determining the
amount of money to be spent in
further opening it up so as to be-
come a shipper. They expect to ship
some of the high grade ore this fall
and winter, but it will be at least an
other year before it can be opened on
any extensive scale for shipping.

Copper Exploration company, &C
companied by his wife, arrived
on the first train for the interior to
visit the properties of his company.
Mr.. Di.lman was among the first
to send prospectors to the Copper
river valley to locate, stake and pur
chase copper claims and during the
past six years has expended vast
sum of money in the development OF
these properties. The company owns
seven groups three of which are 10

VISITORS
VISIT BONANZA MINE


George w. Sias, of Boston, mana
ger of the Valdez Creek Consolidated
Mining company, arrived in town and
will leave for the interior in a day
or two. He is accompanied by H. K.
Summers, of Cleveland, and J. c. Nc
Donald and Melvin L. Stickney, of
Boston, VINO are making a trip to
this country for the purpose of look
ing over its mineral resources with a
view to investing.
Mr.. Sias' company has some good
property on Valdez creek, where de-
velopment work has been carried on
since 1908. 1t includes large body
of placer ground as well as some
promising quartz. Over $4,000 mas
already been expended and force of
six men and three giants have been
at work. Ten more giants are to be
installed this fall. and Mr.. Sias is
taking six more men with him. 1t is
the intention to dredge the delta next
season and the company plan on ex-
pending from 100000 to $3.50, 900
during the coming year.

from the Tanana, from Nome and all
interior sections of Alaska, the town
necessarily should be in position to
accommodate this trade. Besides, the
place is becoming supply point and
headquarters for not only growing

orators who are opening up extensive
mines, and then too, hardly week
passes but tourists and capitalists

Mr. Palmer is an old timer in Alas
ka. He was with one of the first
mail pack trains running out of
Skagway. Later he worked at Sew
ard and was employed by the Cop
per River & Northwestern railway
at Katalla and has been in the en-
ploy of that company ever since un-
til recently.
Oscar Freedman will hereafter de
vote all of his time to the MacCor
mac hotel. He plans making num-
Der of improvements. Among other
things hot and cold water will be in
stalled and a ladies parlor will be
added.

GETTING RFADY
To SHIP

In addition to the shipments be-
ing made regularly by the Bonanza
mine, there will be considerable ton
mage secured by the railroad from
otneI properties along the Chitina
and tribntarv rivers this fall and Win
ter Nearly all OF the upper opera
tors in that section of the country
intend to send Out as much as pos
siDle OF their high grade ore. Some
of this will have TO b, hauled over
the winter horse trails, and some
packed on the back of back horses.
The Copper River & Northwestern
Railway, besides having quoted an
extremely low rate on ore from
points along its line to the Tacoma
smelter, stands ready to build spur
tracks to any of the properties
where tonnage is offered. 1t is I'M
derstood that one of the first spurs
likely to be built will be to the

mines.
The little driblets of copper 10
come from these various sources this
fall and winter will swell into a con-
siderable volume in short time, and
in another year or so the much ad-
vertised copper district will realize
its promise.

the pressure of loose dirt from be-

foreman in charge of the carpenters,
was short distance away measuring
timbers, and Engineer Forester
who has general charge, was in the
open cut on the other side making
measurements. Another carpenter
near Settlers warned him not to cut
away the support, but he paid no
heed to the warning, since it was in
his way.
The carpenters have been re-tim-
bering the tunnel as fast as the
muckers removed the dirt from the

kept a lean-to projection of heavy
timbers' over the heads of the muck

cidents. Just to the rear of this

BILLY TIBBS TO START A
FINE MINERAL DISPLAY

Realizing tnat a mineral display
the mineralized district surrounding
Chitina, William Tibbs has started
gathering specimens.
He will have special cabinet
built to hold the samples, and hopes,
with the cooperation of mining men,
to soon have a display which will
attract attention. Almost weekly
visiting capitalists and others seek
ing investments pass through Chiti-
ma and eagerly look about for samp
les indicative of the mineral charac
ter of the country.
Almost every day samples of rock
are brought to Chitina by prospec
tors which would make the eyes of
chechacoes bulge with excitement.
Were enough of these gathered to
make a fairly representative dis
play, they would prove one of the
best advertising features that could
be devised for advancing the inter-
ests of this part of the country.
Mr.. Tibbs, realizing this, will lose
no time in getting his cabinet start
ed. The rock from each creek or
locality will be carefully labeled.

The risks and tragedy of railroad
construction was brought forcibly to
wind by the cave-in accident in the
Chitina railway tunnel last Monday
morning, in which w. A. O'Neill,
John Settlers and Antoine Sabate were
killed and eight other men suffered
minor injuries.
Considering the dangers and diff
culties encountered by the builders of
the railway, together with the fact
that there was no precedent in rail-
way construction for the conditions
to be met and overcome, the loss of
life has been less than for any sim
liar line ever constructed. This has
been matter of congratulation to
the builders, the operating men and
owners, therefore. the tragedy, be-
cause of its uneXpectedness, proved a
double shock to the community.
All of the men killed, as we'll as
those injured were we'll known in
both Chitina and Cordova. At the
first news of the cave in practically
the whole population of Chitina
turned out to do what was in their
power to render aid A special was

sible. Antoine Sabate was the last
