The recent session of the Alabama
Land congress has already borne fruit
that promises much for the gulf section
of the state. The exhibit of Satsuma
oranges that was made by Mobile in the
hall of the congress attracted no little
attention of itself but a leading firm of
distributors here was induced to make a
small trial order of that fruit, and the
result was so satisfactory that four sue
cessive orders have since been made by
that same firm for that species of orange
and now there is a market here for them
that promises to take large numbers of
them hereafter. 1efI ts1lts
And Mobile was so we'll pleased with
the result that the Chamber of Commerce
has decided to pack and send 100 boxes
of that fruit to 100 Chambers of Com
merce, boards of Trade and commercial
organizations throughout the United
States with the statement that they were
grown in Mobile county, and that there
are thousands of acres of idle land in
that vicinity that will grow these oranges
to perfection, and only awaits the thrifty
planter to bring him untold wealth.
One man in Mobile county few years
ago homesteaded a small tract of land
near the gulf, built him a little home,
gradually cleared and planted it in Sat
suma oranges and pecans and last year
he realized an income from it of something
over $4,000, and his trees are compara-
lively young yet. The land congress will
vouch for the correctness of the foregoing
statement, and will furnish name and ad-
dress of the party upon application.
The Mobile Chamber of Commerce is
starting the new year with the determina-
ton to build up Mobile. Beside it's bu-
reau of farm organization work, it will
have fund of $4,000 with which to aid
In the locating of manufacturing plants
in and around that city.
The manager of one of the largest land
companies in Alabama stated to the. man.
agement of the land congress a day or
two ago that prior to the present year
his company lost more or less settlers
in removals to Texas, but that this year
they had had none. 1t will be recalled
that at the recent session of the land
congress it was made one of the fixed
policies of the organization to search out
land find all who were thinking of re-
moving from Alabama and bring all pos
sible local pressure to bear to keep them
here as a farmer who could not succeed

Sjate Crock Miners and Road house Keepers on Way to
 New Diggings.

Jod Stanton, the interior mail contractor, reached Valdez yes
 tcrday, bringing the last mail
 from Gulkana, of the season, on
 the Fish contract. He reports
 much excitement at Copper Gen.
 ter and all along the line from there to Valdez about the new strike on the Nelchina, and he himself saw and spoke to the In- dian (NicholD who brought the
 news to Copper Center. Two men working with two lengths of sluice boxes had taken out two handfuls of gold, according to the Indian, but he had no way of expressing to the people at Cop per Center the value of the clean up.
 Between Beaver Dam and Tick hell MT. Stanton met the Valdez stampcders headed for the new diggings with all manner of con- veyances and pack animals and few with packs on their backs. Some will go via the old cutoff at Quartz creek, and others to Copper Center and up to TaZlina lake.
 Jim Simpson and Pete Snyder, the Tazlina roadhOuse keeper, left as soon as the news was brought to Copper Center and are in the new diggings by this time. Ncls McCrary and Denny Witt also made an immediate start in order to get in on the ground floor. The Slate creek miners and operators, now on the way from their summer work to the coast, also stampcded for the new camp, all loading up their horses at the roadhOuses and making as fast time as possible.
 The Indian who brought the news said that fifteen men and one woman were ill the new camp when he left and ali were work ing to take out all the gold pos sible before the freeze up.
 MT. Stanton is positive in his statement that the route via Val deZ and Copper Center is the best route to take at this time. The trip to Copper Center can be made in four days al easy stages and from there to the diggings in four days more.

WILL s|DON.kN0W 0F. NEW CAMP
Ed. Wood Is at Seward From tho New Camp and WIII Bring
 News Concerning It.

Ed. Wood, the freighter, reach ed Seward this morning from the Matanuska coal fields and will return to Valdez on the next boat from the westward. He sent his pack train of thirty animals in- to the new Nelchlna country load ed with supplies for the miners and stampeders. When the pack train has finished the work it will be brought out to Valdez via the government trail, as that is the shortest and pest route to the coast from the new camp.
 MT. Wood IS believed to have made trip into the Nelchina with his pack train and will be in a position to tell of the con- ditiOns there. He is cOnserva- tive man and his word can be relied upon. He knows the dan gers attending a stampede at this season of the year, which would be sure to result in great hard ship to all who rushed in unpre- pared and might result in more serious disasters.
 The Prospector has wired Mr.. Wood to send statement of conditions in the new camp as he found them, but the answer had not been received up to the hour of going to press.

TRY ID BEAT
 WAY ID STATES

Shortly before the Mariposa left CordOva for Juneau on her last trip an inspection of the ship was made and twenty-eight stow aways discovered in hiding in various quarters aboard the ves- sel. The passage beaters were rounded up and put ashore. much to their disgust. Nearly all of the financially embarrassed group were stampeders who have been to the Chisana gold fields and spent their last cent in getting in and stalking.
 The presence of idle men in Curduva in large numbers shows the low financial state a large number of men were in when they stampeded. Although many of the pennilrss men have good ground they will be unable to work it until spring.

PRETTY WEDDING
 " THIS MORNING
Popular Young People Married EarIy This Morning at tho
 Catholic Church.

A very pretty wedding was soIemniZed at the Catholic church this morning at 8:3O o'clock, when Mary Ellen Meals and William J. Whalen were un- tied in the holy bonds of matri- mony by Father Van der Pol. Miss Spexarth and Owen Meals, brother of the bride, were bridesmaid and grOOmsman.
 The altar of the church had been beautifully decorated for the wedding and showed a most artistic talent in the blending of the colOrs of the blossoms by the friends of the young people, who had stripped their gardens of their choicest flowers for the oc- casion. The altar rail, where the bride and groom knelt to receive the blessing of the father was entwined by trailing vines and dainty white blossoms.
 The church was crowded by the friends of the young couple, who are both well known and are popular among the younger members of society in Valdez. The music was excellent and har- monized beautifully with the im- prcssivc marriage ceremony of the Cathol ic religion. Mrs. 1. B. IIurd sang the Ave Marie. The children's choir, under Mrs. Mill lcr and Mrs. Vim. Kramer, sang the mass and theM sweet voices, blending with the voice of the priest, was very impressive. The Mother Superior presided at the organ.
 After the ceremony the friends of the young couple waited at the door of the church to cnngratu- late them and shower them with rice.
 The prospector joins their many friends in wishing Mr. and Mrs. Whalen a long and happy life.

w. G. Reynolds and R. A. Lindsey Select Sure Route via vaI-
 deg to New Camps.

w. G. Reynolds and R. A. Lindsay, sourdough miners and prospectors will leave Valdez to- morrow morning for the Tazlina or Chisana diggings, taking two horses and light express wag- on with l,700 pounds of horse feed and supplies, and four dogs to be used on the further end of the road.
 The two partners will wait at Copper Center for information from the Valdez prospectors, who left here the past two weeks for the Nelchina country, and if their reports are favorable the outfit will be taken up the Tazlina river to the new diggings.
 The trip into the interior will be made at slow stages until the first fall of snow, when the dog team will be used and one horse and a double-ender will take all the supplies at one trip.
 Both men are experienced min- CTS and prospectors and are go- ing into the country prepared to remain for the winter.
