A WOMAN'S STORY OF
 CHISANA'S DISCOVERY


 Mrs. James, who pluckily followed her husband when they discovered the Chisana gold fields has told her story to the Dawson News:
 MT. James and I had prospected in the upper White river country l three years, and Mir. Nelson also was in the district with us. We had con ] fined our attention to quartz on the Beaver and vicinity above Snag. Last ! April James, Nelson and l packed our dogs, and made the hard and tedious mush over the divide of the Beaver to was not all off, and we had a hard l trip About the first of May we got down to a point near the mouth of what is now known as Bonanza, and there we banned along the edge of the creek, in the edge of the ice. We got some cOlOrs, and were much en- couraged by the pannings along the Bonanza rim.
 After We got the first gold on Bo- nanza, Nelson said it looked to him as though we could take out wages if we had a Hume hose We had no money with which to make purchases. but he felt sure he could get the hose l if he came to Dawson. He struck out about May 13, and came to Dawson and got the hose, and then returned. We did not have much gold when Nel son left Us. l believe we had banned something like nine dollars at first. After Nelson left. Billy and I went banning up the creek to other points, to put in the time. We had a little tent and camped at various points each night, living on a meager fare. In fact, we almost starved before Nel- son came back.
 When we got to a strange creek running into Bonanza, we followed it up and looked for the run. At one place Billy spoke to me, saying: Let me have the pan; here's little bed rock cropping out He took the pan, and, to our surprise, got five to ten dollars in the bright gold. | had a little frying pan in which we had cooked eggs in those lucky days when we coud procure such luxuries. In this pan l got about five dollars in gold. We then prospected a little further up and found gold, and staked a discovery. A claim where we got the rich pans mentioned we staked as No. 1, and named the creek Little Eldorado. That is the stream on which we did most of our work this summer. While waiting for Nelson to return from Dawson we went over the hill and banned on Gold Run.
 Before Nelson returned we had ta- ken out something like $500 out on Little Eldorado by banning, and we hat it in the pans to show him. When l he came up with the horses laden 1 with grub, others also were present. i We were never so glad in our lives | to see anyone, and gave a wild cheer, | but l can tell you l had trouble keep l ing back the tears. For days we were on Little Eldorado eating the handful ] of rough food, with no sugar, no flour, | no salt. We had wild meat, and, as we chewed on it. we had great wis ions of other good things which gold | would buy in some countries. There before us was plenty of the gold, but we could not eat it. In itself it was absolutely useless"

mite. He is now at the Pioneer hOspi- tai, under the care of Dr. Romig. So far as an examination can disclose up to this time, the unfortunate man will lose the sight of one eye and it is very doubtful if the other eye may not also be lost. Other injuries about the face, head and limbs were inflicted. It is thought that a part of the steel point of a pick entered the victims face and penetrated to the neck. An incision near the nose indicates this. Unless complications set, Carlson will re- cover.
