NEW PAYSTREAK LOCATED
 IN FAIRBANKS DISTRICT

FAIRBANKS, April 2S.-With the discovery of pay dirt on the lower end of above Fairbanks creek claim, few days ago, by the Gustafson-Glrif- fin drill, the paystreak of Crane gulch has been located again, and promises to add some tens of thousands of dol lars to the present total chalked up to Crane. Four holes have been put down on the lower end of 3 above by the Griffin brothers, working the drill. Three above is owned by Larson x Meehan and is worked under lay by Gustafson & Griffin.
 Crane gulch enters Fairbanks creek from the left at about the center Of 8. In the early days of Fairbanks creek, considerable work was done on Crane gulch. Carrall & Parker took out in the neighborhood of $SO,OOO from one small cut, the pay being ex- tremely rich.
 The Crane gulch run on FalrDanKs creek has never been found, and it is believed by mining men that the dirt lined up with the drill during the last week is from the tributary. The drilling was done 400 feet downstream from the last open-cut work of Gus tafson & Griffin. Three of the holes landed on pay, the fourth being a blank. In one hole some very rich dirt was found, estimated, from the pannings, to average $2O to the square foot
 The three holes demonstrated that the streak had a width of 175 feet, and an average of $4 to the square foot. Plans for further prospecting are being formulated.
