8U8lTNA TO THE FORE
 GREAT ACTIVITY DISPLAYED
Continued from page 1)

Continued from page 1) ent season, according to a state- ment of one man who has just re- turned from there, will be Bubb & Barenberg, operating on Dollar creek. They are working two giants and handling more ground than anybody in the district. They have found some very rich pay on their benches, two distinct pay streaks having been uncovered. There is heavy overburden with this but all of it carries sufficient values to pay for the handling. Their output has been estimated at anywhere from S50,000 to $tOO,000 for the summer, but it will probably not exceed the form CT figure, according to statements made by the owners themselves. Five men are being employed on this property.
 Doc IHerning, Jacobs and part ncrS, on Nugget creek, are report ed to have struck the best pay that they have ever found on their ground, which, up to the recent season, has been the banner pro lducer of the district. About four weeks ago pay was struck in the creek bottom which has been yielding about $40 a day to the shovel and with ninc men at work their cleanup should be one of the biggest in the history of that creek.
 Raymond and partners arc ground Sluicing and shnveling in on lowrr Nugget and making bet ter than wages.
 The Cache Creek Mining com pany. which has expended so much money in that district on trails and equipment, is working eight men and is reported to br taking out good money.
 Exceedingly heavy rains have been falling in the Cache creek district for the past two weeks and in several instances have greatly retarded mining. Cache creek and all of it's tributaries have been the highest in the history of the coun- try, with the result that dams have been washed out and mining suspended through necessity.
 Sam Blowers, operating at the forks on Falls creek, has com pleted enough stripping and ground sluicing for the season and has begun shoveling in the boxes. He is reported to have un- covered some very fair pay and he states that he expects to have a good cleanup by fall.-Seward Gateway.
