TIE LATEST FR0N THE
 CHISANi GOLO FIELDS

Mir. Clarence \, ,hisCu, a young man who first came to Skagway :n 1887 in companT with his parents, is iusl back from the Chisana gold dig gings. He left Atlin, where his father now is, cn August 7th, and after an uneventful trip over the Coffee creek route reached his des- tination about the middle of the month above mentioned. While he was too late to make a location, he wls very favorably imp pressed with the looks of the country, and thinks it will prove a winner when devel- opment work fully demonstrates its worth. He states that for 50 square mes contiguous to discovery the creeks are composed of the same character of wash and gravel as ob tains on discovery creek.
 He estimates that between 5o SAalA OUU DCOpAC "AAl M4llLSl HI IAAS Chisana, but says work for this sea- son, except for assessment. pur- poses, has been stopped.
 There are three new towns now in course of construction. one being on Snag river, and named after that stream, another at the mouth of Johnson creek and a third called H oOdrow, on Wilson creek.
 He says that while at the dig g!ngss he met Dell Cowan and Geo. Barnett, who are now engaged in building a cabin on Johnson creek. He also caught a passing sight of Henry Friedenthal, but did not have a chance to talk with him. MT. Achison says that he was informed that MT. Friedenthal had had the misfortune to lose both of the

hcrses which he took in with him from Skagway, but that otherwis he was getting along all right
 Mir. Achison says dogs are at present of more value at the dig gings than horses, and that just be- fore he left he was offered pair of the latter for $75, while good dog was held at a much higher price.
 He reports game, especially car ibou and sheep, as very plentiful. and on his way out, travelling down the White river on a rafts frequently passed large herds of caribou at feed on the banks.
 MT. Achison brings word that a rumor was current in the interior that two Montenegrans had lost their lives in the White, above the mouth of Snag, a short time ago.
 He also met Chas Peterson, and Joe Stubler, a partner of Henry Friedenthal, who informed him that they had reached the diggings with 211 pounds of grub which had cost them $211 to get in.
 It was reported that man who left Whitehorse a short time ago with a band of beef cattle, had turned back when he reached a point between the Donjek and White rivers, and had taken them to Daw- son, where he had an idea, owing to game being so plentiful in the Chis ana, he would find a better market
 Before he left the diggings, Ach- ison says, eight inches of snow had fallen and the weather was extreme ly cold.
 He is undecided yet as to whethI CT he shall return or not to the dig gings at a later date.
