NEW STRIKE AT NELCHINA
 LOOKS GOOD TO PROSPECTORS

Glen Names and Ernest Olson, who left Valdez September 23 for the Nelchina camp, returned this fore noon after having spent two days in camp. They made remarkably good time. being only five days on the trail from the diggings to Copper Center and three days and one hour from Copper Center to Valdez The estimate that the distance from Cop per Center to the diggings via the summer trail is about no miles. When Tazlina lake and river freezes the distance will be not more than seventy miles.
 They report that the country is staked for miles around where dis covery was made, but did not stake for themselves. Powers of attorney had been Iiberally used and may lead to litigation if the claims prove to be valuable when develop ed. !
 The miners are well pleased with the formation of the district and state that conditions are similar to those of Fairbanks. The hills are rolling and the valleys wide but have sufficient fall to provide easy handling of the gravel deposits.
 The men state that few of the stampeders from this section of the country were in time to get in oA the ground near the discovery but they are spreading out and locating new creeks and will spend the win ter in attempting to locate the pay streaks. They will both return to the diggings during the winter. MT. Olson declares that he will be on the trail by December 1. He believes the country is one of the best he

RIVER CAPTAIN
 PASSES THROUGH SKAGWA

Captain Patterson, master of the new White Pass river Steamer Alas ka. is in skagway awaiting the sail ing of the Princess May for the South.
 Captain Patterson is one of the oldest sourdoughs passing thru Skagway. He located a plot of ground in Skagway near a big tree, in the early days, when there were but two cabins here and the work men were just beginning the con- struction of the first saw mill. Az ter pitching his tent, arranging his stove and camp outfit, he started for the interior, and was with Rice's pack train which was in charge of Shorty Biglow when it got lost while eudeavoring to find a way out of the country lying east of Log Cabin, through to the lakes. Dur ing the three or four days the party searched for 9 crossing, Captain Pat terson packed R load of 125 pounds. Finally the entire party retraced it's steps, and cut trail through to the head of Lake Bonnet, which

At the meeting of the City COun- ciI held last night, Councilman Phil Abrahams requested that his resig- nation which he had rendered the board at the last meeting be acted upon. There was considerable dis cussion, and the majority of the counciImen were opposed to the ac- ceptance of the resignation.
 Today MT. Abrahams called at thi office and requested that it be made known through the columns of the Daily Alaskan that from this time on he would refuse to act as coun- cilman or to take any part in the Town Councils deliberations or ac- tions.
 This action on the part of MT. Abrahams leaves the Town Council of Skagway with but five active members, as Councilman Friedenthal has been absent several weeks and although inquiry has been made Of a number of the councilmen none of those questioned remembre of leave of absence ever having been granted to Mr Friedenthal

BELIEVES MANY
LOST ON TRAILS

Charles Olson, who arrived from the Chisana two days ago, says the Juneau Empire of Oct. 17th, believe that there have been many lives lost in attempts to get out of the coun- try this fall. Several parties left early in the fall to reach the Yu- kon have never been seen or heard of since leaving the country, al though many others have subse- quently arrived from the outside points. It is a bewildering country to travel over, Mir. Olson says, and many incidents are known of people getting lost. Early in the fall a great many were driven out on ac- count of grub" shortage.
 AIr. Olson left Chisana September no. At that time there was eight inches of snow in the settlement at the diggings. MIr. Olson was one of those to reach the country in Aug ust. He says it will be a big camp and a good one. The pay, he says, has been located on the benchground and that it is very extensive. Boil CTS and supplies are absolutely nee essary before mining can be carried on or even thorough prospecting. These are now being sent in.
 It is estimated that 5000 men wis tied the country during the season and that nearly 1000 are now wait ing at the points where river navi- gation ended to rush in supplies on the snow that has just begun to make the trails passable. According to Mir. Olson the tributaries of Beav- CT which flows into White river will be as good as the streams flowing into the Chisana where pay was first located. Many of the claims have not had the required location work done and these claims will all be re- located by the army of stampeders that is now waiting to get into the country.

JAMES LINDBERG DROWNS
 WHILE CROSSING WHITE

Word was brought out from WhI' horse last evening that Al Cronin, who was one of the first to go into the Chisana country returned to Whitehorse few days ago and told the following story of the find ing by Solomon Albot and James Slaggert, the body of man who had been drowned in the White ri7- CT. ,s- SSN .!
 While on the trail into the Chls- ana, these men found the body of a man on a sand bar in the White River abOutu one mile below Canyon City. From the appearance Of the body it is believed that the man had been dead between two and three months.
 A search of the body revealed the fact that he WAS a member of the Fraternal Order of Eagles, and be- Ionged to Dillon Aerie No. 1897, at Dillon, Mont, and that his name was James Lindberg.
 It would appear that Mir. Lindber was behind his partners on the way into the new strike, and when he reached the crossing where the oth- CTS had forded, the river had raised and in attempting to follow their trail he was drowned.
 In addition 10 the papers found ca the unfortunate mans person, S5l. % in cash, a watch and an F. O. E. charm was also found.
 Messrs. Albot and Slaggert at ouce notified the Royal Northwest Mount ed Police, and members of that or ganization at opce took charge ot the case.

trail was used until the W. P. & Y. railway was built.
 Upon returning to the head of Lynn Canal, qaI seeking his camp site, MT. Patterson could find no trace of it whatever. He finally found the big tree, and then discoy- cred that his lot was the site of one of the early-day saloons.
 Leaving the trail, Captain Patter- son took to the river, and since that time has spent his summers in nayi- gating steamers on the Yukon. He expects to spend the winter in the States, returning to the North in time to resUme command of the steamer Alaska next season.
