RUBY NE " s
Record Citizen, October 4.

About ten days ago L. s. Robe made 8 trip to Poorman creek for the purpose of locating the most suitable route for winter trail from Long to that promising creek. Having satisfied himself, he immediately on his return to town sent the following wire:
 Ruby, Alaska Sept. 21. "Iieutenant G. E. Eagertcn,
 Valdez, Alaska:
 Require fer repairs winter road to Long S7OO; trail from Long to Poorman $500 70 mlles; improvement Cripple trail s4OO Total S2,6O0. On hand and avail able at Ruby, $500. The above is the mini mum and the work is urgently required. Mail contract has been awarded Ruby to Cripple-semi- monthly. Authority request ed by wire. "L. 5. ROBE.
 On September 2S Mr. Robe received the following answer, the delay being caused by the message being sent from Melozi to this point by mail:
 Fairbanks, Sept. 23. Robe, Ruby, Alaska (mail from Melozi):
 Twenty one hundred allotted as per your telegram Edgerton. Send rough geograph- IL al ShClSh Nith iSi'oie'
 Upon receipt of the above telegram MT Robe on Monday morning last started crew of seven men to work on the repair of the road between here and Long. They will fill in the places washed out and repair the bridges destroyed by the forest fires of last summer
 The men will then start on the trail to be cut to Poorman creek, which will cross the Salatna river near the mouth of MOnu- ment This trail will hit Poorman creek near Tenderfoot grade, if conditions permit following the route in view.
 The travel on the Cripple trail will be diverted by way of Poorman creek, making the distance about five miles greater, but having the advantage of being kept open by the mail carriers
 Mir Robe stated that the winter road to Poorman will be completed by October 20.
 Alec Capewell of Trail creek arrived in town the first of the week, bringing with him the largest nugget picked up IT the Ruby district to date was found on the upper end of the Capewell bench.
 The nugget weighed s31375 when put on the scales
 This chunk of geld was picked up on the points of sluice fork, and was about to be consgned to the ta!ling pile when discovered Alec had also another chunk of geld which weighed $9175, both of which were taken from the workings of Capewell, Brice X McDonald.
 Because of the dry season, stated Cape well, last winters dump has not been sluiced up yet, and nothing but prospecting has been done this summer A pump has been installed On the ground and now that water can be returned, dirt will be handled through the boxes until the freeze-up.
 Recent cleanups have been very satis- factory" is all Capewell would say regard ing the amount taken from the boxes

Arrivals from Pooramn creek without ex- ception, are of the opinion that that creek will surprise the most optimistic. That there will be a number of plants in opera tion there next winter is conceded by all also that the showing so far made on the creek is so good that no pessimstic predic- tons are ventured L, S. Robe, who 8 few days ago returned from there, stated: For quick returns, Poorman creek presents the best outlook of any creek in the district today, and it gives much promise for the future"
