The Chitina leader., 1911-10-07

For years past prospectOrs have been searching for the source of the gold-bearing gold quartz float found in O'Brien Creek without success, but on August IT, Sam Erickson, who discovered the Lucky Strike property at Mckinley Lake. uncovered a true quartz vein about six miles up the creek and the following day another vein farther up was found that prom ises to be the biggest thing in the way of 8 mine that has ever been brought in near Chitina.
 The first vein is six feet wide and extends below the bed of the creek and up the mountain side for several hundred feet A tunnel is being worked in just above the creek which indicates widening of the vein and from the general appearance and surroundings it is safe to estimate that there is an almost unlimited quantity of this rock. A conservative assay showed $15.85 with many pock- cts of much richer mineral This quartz also carries galena like for nation the exact composition of

THE IMPROVED ROAD HOUSE

There is an old boy with beard on his
 face, .-- Who lives upon Chitina H Hei shts He built him a house ir this little,
 old place,
 And there he keeps people Q nights He built and he built and he built
 all day, And he built far into the night; And when he had finished they heard
 him say,
 By lingo, I've got it all right" But this foxy old peter in looking
 around.
 Discovered that something was shy, So he hied him to Tiekel and while
 there he found, The goods that he wanted to buy The goods that he bought-hut we'll
 not speak the name, Now stands in the rear of his place And brings to old Peter both fortune
 and fame,
 For Peter is bound to keep pace. If you don't understand the gist of
 this tale, 4 Just come up on Chitina Heights And visit the house by the side of the
 trail,
 For it's one of Chitina's sights.

which has not as yet been determin- ed.
 The other vien is similar to the first except that it is thirty feet in width and has been exposed by sluicing to height of over three hundred feet on the surface. The assay of this vein, however, only gave $4.60 but the sample sent to the assayer was considered at the time one of the poorest on the ledge.
 A visit to this property will con vince the most skeptical that Chitina at least has a real gold mine that is sure to prove winner. The owners of these mines are on the ground and to drive tunnels this winter ard they invite any and all who care to do so to come out and inspect the property. All who have seen it are sure that this find will mean more to Chitina than any previous discovery. The ground may be reached by fol- lowing the old Valdez trail from mile 126 to the "hog back" and then fol- lowing the new trail up O'Brien creek pr about two miles.

George Henry Lewis was born at
Ely place. April 81, 1898, of Jewish
parentage. His father and uncle be-
fore him were attorneys, the former
founding the firm into which his son
was admitted as a partner when he
left University college, London, in his
18th year. He served the usual five
years as a clerk and was admitted to
the bar in 1856. The most famous
case in which he took part was the par
liamentary investigation of the Times
letter, in which 1t was charged that
Parnell, the famous Irish leader, con-
doned and defended the Phoenix Park
murders OF 1882. With the late Chief
Justice Russell as barrister, and him
self as solicitor. in charge OF the prep
aration OF the case, he won a notable
victory in clearing the name of Par
nell, and the Irish party, from the obi
um of the Times letter. The real cul-
prit, Piggot, committed suicide as a
result OF the disclosures. For the ser
vices thus rendered the party and the
good name OF the English parliament,
he was made a knight by Queen Vic
toria and later was given the rank of
baronet by the late King Edward, who
was one OF Lewis clients.

rectors decided last night to limit the

tivities, the clubs roll has been more
than doubled IN a year.

The weather man now will come in
for more attention than has been
paid 1t for several months. Should
rain fall in the West the bears will
try to make 1t feature of general
interest in an attempt to rob the sta

New Crop il; :;anger.
This, it is claimed. has caused
backward preparations for the new
crop in some sections and is against
the success of the next crop since it
is the general idea that winter rains
are conserved n ihe soil while Sprjng

that unless rains fall soon the cotton
