RUMORED PAY
 ON NEW GREEK

There is rumor around town that pay has been found on Lemon creek, tributary to Iditarod river on the left limit, twenty miles below Iditarod City.
 The pay is said to have been found at the bottom of a 45 foot shaft.
 A party of Monteregrins have been on the creeks for two or th. ee months, and they came up and re corded three claims about three weeks ago. They speak little CT no English.
 The quality or quantity of the supposed pay, or particulars of tue find, cannot be learned
 The men recently took down a boiler, To an acquaintance they di>clained having any pay, How ever, some people seem to believe they are not telling all they know, and the report was that Jack Ro- nan, for one, had gore to have a look at the ground. That part of the story, at least, is erroneous, for Ranan's $ trip was to Moose creek.
