PIONEER W0MEN'S
 B|C DANCE TONIGHT
Demand for Tickets Indicate that Ea- gle Hall will be Filled with
 Dancers Tonight.

The dance to be given at Eagle hall tonight by the Pioneer Women of Alaska, Igloo No. 2, promises to be well attended if the demand for tick cts can be considered a criterion The ladies have been actively planning for the dance during the past month and today announce that everything is ready for their guests.
 The floor of the big hall has been carefully prepared for the occasion, and special music will add to the pleasure of the guests. Luncheon will be served during the evening, and the ladies announce that those who do not dance will find entertainment in the gallery as the Pioneer women will see to it that no wall flowers are allowed.
 The fact that the Pioneer Women kindly gave up their former date to the Valdez Fire Departments dance, has caused the latter to become good boosters for the dance tonight and the department will be at Eagle Hall tonight.

TOMMY RIGGS FOOLS
 UNFORTUNAE CARIBOU

While on his trip, riding along the Nenana, abcut 45 miles up the river, Commissioner Riggs had the good for tune to sight caribou just across the stream. He took shot at him, but the distance was too great to se- cure the result he wished. Both the caribou and the commissioner moved on down the river, losing sight of each other for the time being. Then the caribou decided to take chance anyhow and started across the river. The commissioner let him across and then, Just as he raised his enormous spread of horns, potted him with a net shot. As the caribou jumped back into the river some difficulty was met in fishing him out, about four miles lower down, but the deed was accomplished and the surveying crews were furnished with close to 800 pounds of the choicest meat the North affords.-Fairbanks Citizen.

FALLS CREEK MAY
 HAVE PAYSTREAK
Several Ounces of High-Grade Placer Gold Famed from Rim Dur
 ing Prospecting Work.

Nels Jepson, the Beaver Dam roadhouse keeper, left this morning with a big load of supplies for his station. He has one of the most pop ular stopping places on the Valdez. Fairbanks rad and carries small stock of sr ppi es in order to meet the demands C. miners and prospec- tors in tha; !t ation when their outfits are exhausted. He is not in the mer- cantile business but realizes that miners often exhaust their supplies before starting for town and is pre- pared to help them out for few days.
 MT. Jepson is interested in placers on Falls creek, tributary of Ton sina, and shows several ounces of gold. The gold is of the kind known as "paystreak gold" among miners, varying from nuggets worth two or three dollars to fine dust. The gold is bright and assays high.
 During the past summer he has banned several ounces of dust from the rims but has not been able to reach bedrock owing to the ground being thawed and wet, and has been trying to interest capital in the prop erty with view of having the ground thoroughly tested with a drill.
 Falls creek was one of the first streams in this district to receive at- tention from placer miners and was in a fair way of being developed when the Slate creek dlggings were struck and the miners stampeded to the new camp. The discovery of Fairbanks followed Slate creek and the miners again stampeded to the interior, but many of them have ex- pressed the intention of returning and giving Falls creek thorough tryout, but have not done so. Jep- son and associates now own nearly all of the valley below the canyon, and as the creek is about three miles long it would present ideal working conditions for mining on a big scale

Wm. Glendenning, the Wells Bay copper mining man, left for the mine this morning with number of min CTS to begin development of the ore bodies on an extensive scale. Miners who are familiar with the Glenden- ming property, assert that it is one of the best on the coast of Alaska and will develop into a big mine.

 Small but rich stringers have been discovered on the hills sur rounding Falls creek and as the gov ernment road is but three miles from the property, supplies can be handled very cheaply.
