lNFLIX FROM RUBY
 BEGINS IN EARNEST

Billy Han.on, Dan Mckenzie and several others arrived from Ruby during the week. While they are reticent regar ling Condi- tions there it is easy to discern that the outlook is none too bri 2 ht, al though a little money may be cleaned up next summer.
 Bear Pup seems to be the most promising locality, some very good spots having been located there, and Long and Trail creeks will also produce a little money.
 Linn, Pierce & Nelson threw uL their lay, and have gone to Fair banks. Their ground has been taken over by another outfit.
 There will be employment for comparatively few men next sum- mer, so there is likely to be a big move ill the direction of Fairbanks and Iditarod before the breakup

LADY SLAPS HER
 AT10RNEY'S FACE

Kansas City, Mo, January 10. Women's card parties conducted under the names of clubs, not re- ouiring membership card nor a special invitation, were branded a violation of the gambling law by Judge Burney ill the municipal court today.
 The case in court was that Of Mrs. Laura Stetzer, charged with disturbing the peace following a quarrel with Mrs. Frances Tnomp- son at a meeting of the Progressive High Five club at the home of Mrs. Connie Stewart, a teacher i'll China painting.
 The court room was filled with women. Witnesses contradlcted each other continuously, some say ing that Mrs. Stetzer gave Mrs. Thompson the first slap in the face and others testifying vice versa The climax was reached when Mrs Thompson administered a resound ing slap upon the cheek of her at tornev, to attest to the severity ot .l 1, ,.l1 .a1a,,,oI
 Pandemonium reigned for awhile but order was eventually restored and the women discharged with a severe repfimaud.

OTTER BRIDGE
 HAY BE DESTROYED

Unless something Is done before long 1t appears that nothing will be able to save the bridge across Otter creek from destruction when the ice goes out. The glacier i> already within two feet of the foot way of the bridge, and may cover it before the winter season is over. Tn order to save the structure 1t would be necessary to cut chan nel so that the water can run of when the thaW sets in.
 Glaciers on the Iditarod Plat trail have been far more trouble some this winter than ever before; the tramway being completely cov- cred ill some places, although it Is some feet above the normal level ot Cottonwood creek.

MAIL TROUBLES IN
 THE EARLY DAYS

Speaking of the delay of the present mail service, says the Nome Industrial Worker, recalls the fam ous delay which occurred when Kimball, then chief clerk for the railway mail service, dispatched the mail via Iliamna bay-in 1902. How the Iliamna route came to be chosen has never been explained, but the mail reached Nome after a hard time. It was dispatched over Iliamna divide to 1liamna lake, thence across the head of the Nush- agak, up the Tikchik and over the big divide, down tributary ot tue Kuskokwim, then over the portage and thence to St Michael.
 Captain s. s. Johnson was the man who brought i'll the mail, hay ing been sent ill search of it from St. Michael.

GEORGE II. BRINKMAN DIES
 IN EMERGENCY HOSPITAL

George H Briukman died at Emer- gencv hospital, Flat City, last Thurs day morning at G:3O o'clock. The cause of death was valvular trouble of the heart. liver and kidneys. Dr. Wort mann says that death was absolutely painless-the deceased passing away without a struggle or spasm.
 Nlr. Brinkman had been very sick for many weeks previous to entering hospital, and it was only at the insist ence of his friends that he eventually took refuge in the institution. He re- ceived every care and attention, and all that was humanly possible was done for him; but from the day he entered hospital it was clear that he would never leave 1t alive.
 A son survives him in the East, and also Miss Brinkman, who may either be daughter or sister.
 Among the effects of the deceased at the time of his death was found So22 in cash, aud promissery note for the sum of s400.
 The funeral takes place from the Smith undertaking parlors next MOn- day at pm.

 Mir. MantelIa confirms. the finding of pay, although he says 1t is low grade. Jack EsteIman. the Takotna roadhouse man, has gone to the scene of the strike, taking along boiler and hand drill. Bill Hunter and partner, and several others are on the creek, and more are to follow.

 RIlH QUARTZ

Some exceedingly rich quartz IS now being developed OH tue divide between Yankee and Canes creeks Charley Lindfos and Swan Ring wood are the owners and they have bonded the property to Out side capitalists i'll the sum of Sloo,- 900.
 The value of the property may be judged when it is stated that they have one 9-inch vein which assays oil an average Sl,7oo to the ton, and another vein 24 inches wide which runs all the way from S5o to S2oo 10 the ton.
 The ore Is similar to that four d in Cripple creek, Colorado, and Go!dhcld, Nevada.

SS25O,OOO DEAL
 IDI THE THE IuuOk0

Fred Levy, who was interested in mining on C!earv creek in the early days of the Fairbanks dis t1ict, arrived from the old Innobo diggings Thursday night. He ie here on business connected with some options on Canes and Yankee creeks, and from the way he speaks there are booming times ahead for the IditarCd InnokO kuskokWim section.
 Options have been taken on some 30 properties on Canes creek and about I6 on Yankee, with a vie" to the installation of dredges, and Mir. Levy says there is no doubt at all about the deal going through The purchase price amounts to S250, ,o0o, and owners will receive sums ranging from 2,5oo 10 over S1o, 900 for their interests.
 These deals are distinct from the options taken up last year, the final payments on which have since been made.

CAHP AT CRIPPLE
 IS NOW ASSURED

A camp at Cripple City is assured, according to Fred Levy, who recently visited Cripple and Colorado creeks, although whether it will make a large camp or only small one cannot yet be stated with certainty. One thing is known; pay has undoubtedly been lined up for three miles on Cripple creek, and fer four claims (not less than two miles, on Colorado creek. Good pros poets are also being found on another creek in the district.
 Fred Anderson writes that John the Greek and John A. Cameron have pay on Cripple, and Tiffany and OSten have pay on the Oregon association, Color- ado creek. The paystreak on Colorado is now proved to 8 width of 6 feet

uLAnIY ARE NOV
 GOING OUTSIDE

The usual spring exodus for the Out. side will begin n earnest next week, when several weIl-kn0wn residents of this and surrounding camps will hit the trail for Seward.
 Dick Button, of the Miners 6c Mer- chants bank. expects to getaway about February 26. This will be Mir. Button S first trip Outside in nine years. He goes partly on business and partly on pleasure: but assures us he will not let the business part interfere with the pleasure. After visiting in Colorado, and taking a look at the old Kentucky home, he will hie him once more to the North, either coming in over Lake Le- barge, or over the trail to Fairbanks Mr, Buttons departure will leave a gap in the A. B. basketball team that will be difficult to fill, but all join in wishing him good time.
 Dave Edwards, the Ophir and Grip pie merchant, was expecting to get away about this time for Seattle, whither he goes 10 purchase supplies for the coming summer season.
 J. w. Kempf, formerly in business here, will leave early next week for Cripple He will size up the district from a business standpoint, and expects to continue on to the Outside over the Seward trail. Mr. Kempf will also bring in stock of groceries if the new camp looks sufficiently promising.
 Howard fl. Porter, of Crowley X Porter. will leave for the Outside some time next week. He goes to replenish the stock of the House of Quality, and will travel by way of Seward It is possible he will get away in time to accompany Dick Button.
 The amount of goods to be shipped in to this and nearby camps this com ing season is exceptionally large, and there is likely to be regular boom among the river craft.

WOODEN PLUGS IN
 TURKISH SHELLS

Constantinople, February 20. - Shells that would not explode, picked up on the baItlefields, prove beyond a doubt that thousands of rounds of ammunition supplied to the Turkish army by German con- tractors contained wooden plugs skilfully painted to initiate real shells. This accounts for tue in effectiveness of much o: the Turk '1sh artillery fire.
 The startling disclosures had the effect of precip;tating hurried inspection of all ammunition of German manufacture stored iii the arsenals of powers whom Germany may be disposed to regard as possl- ble future enemies.
