MRS. F. T. HAMsHAW
 AN OUTBOUND PASSENGER

Mrs. F. T. Hamshay was an ar rival from the westward on the Northwestern yesterday on her way outside after a summer and fall spent in the Chisana gold fields with her husband, who is working the original discovery claim and others in that camp under lay from J. J. Price ana his partners, who purchased the property from James, the discoverer, last spring
 Mrs. Hamshaw says that Mr. Ham shaw has done very well during the past summer, although he has been greatly handicapped in many ways, principally by lack of fuel and timber, but this has been in a measure remedied through the re- moval by him of small saw mill from Chisana city to the mouth of Wilson creek, where it is now turn ing out about $500 feet of lumber daily.
 Nearly a mile of wagon road has also been built from the location of the saw mill Up the creek, which adds greatly to the facilities of working.
 Mrs. Hamshaw says that she feels assured that by next spring it will be fully demonstrated what the camp is going to amount to as a producer.
 The summer there was cold and disagreeable, with a good deal of rain.
 She left the diggings on the 18th of this month and had an eX- cellent trip out. Considering that she laid oyer two days at McCarty, nne day at Chitina and another day at Cordova, she, has made exceed lngIy good time in reaching the coast.
 Mrs. Hamshaw will in all Hkeli- hood return to the interior camp early in the spring.
