HILL IN ALASKA
PURE SULPHUR

Ono of the most important finds re-
ported from Alaska during the past sea-
son is the discovery OF mountain OF
sulphur on the Alaska peninsula. H.. L.
Bales. a we'll known Seattle guide, has
Just returned from Alaska bringing a
large number OF samples Of the sulphur.
which when analyzed is said 10 have
shown almost wholly pure sulphur. Mr..
Bales, with a party OF hunters. had gone
into the country 10 hunt bear when they
stumbled on this find, Immediately all
sport was forgotten and the nimrods de-
voted the entire sunmcr to locating their
find.
While in one Of the most inaccessible
points of Alaska. the location is given as
200 miles from Unimak Pass and about
forty-five miles from Sand Point. both OF
which points located on the narrow
Alaska peninsula. lying between Bering
sea and the Pacific ocean. Copper. iron.
coal. oil and gold have heretofore been
found on the peninsula but this is the
first reported find Of sulphur.
A company Is being formed In Seattle
for the purpose OF developing the de-
post and utilizing the material in the
manufacture OF sulphurous products.
The deposit is fifteen miles from the
route OF the Steamship Dora. which
serves the Alaska peninsula. but good
harbor has been located near the deposit
which will permit ships entering and
loading without trouble,

among the several heirs OF the original
owner have resulted detrimenrally 10 the

the property and the inaction or the
widely scattered heirs. Within the past
ten days Superintendent Phalan has

is native copper with a CLINT as bright
