GOLD OUTPUT PLACED
 AT $135, 600

Tho future prospects of Chisana as a producer are very discouraging un- less more discoveries and new pay isI found than that which is already be- ing worked. Up to August 12th the James-Nolson properties had only yielded S155.71As5. with only 25O feet feet of ground left on No. G, which win probably bring the full production of these properties up to about $780, 900. These figures are still lower than the estimated production which was placed at S175.OOO Taking the production of the James-Nelson prop critics as 30e6 of the total production of the camp, Skoolzum Gulch and No. 9, Litle Eldorado creek excepted the total production for the present year will be about S135,OOO Had it been possible for aRnge on Skookum and whitman on Little Eldorado to put in @ good sluicing season, instead of being handicapped for want of water, these figures would have been materi- ally increased bringing the possible output for the season up to $175,0O0.
 The James-Nelson people are going right ahead with their ditch with an idea of going over the ground which Hamshaw worked as we'll as figuring very strong on the side pay. They have stated at different times that 1t was possible to get two-bit pans in Hamshaw's tailing piles, but Ham, shaw's foreman, with m enyiable re- cord as a miner in the lower country and considered one of the best if not the best, in the Chisana district has never been able to obtain the results which the James-Nelson people claim. All of claims Mo- 4, 5, 5-Fraction and 6-Bonanza Creek as well as No. and No. 1-Fraction Little Eldorado will be worelz out This is the ground which the James-Nelson people figure on hydraulicing next season. As virgin ground, and the best of 1t at that, ilt produced less than S175,OOO. They will also find as Hamshaw found 1t that there is practically on "side-pay" The creeks are 80 narrow in that dis trict that in some places, and not a few at that, the cuts run from rim to rim. but where the cuts do not run from rim to rim, the pay cuts of short and does not gradually peter out as is most often the case and where there is anything about the Hamshaw old workings that will jus tify the installing of a hydraulic plant is one which the miners of Chi sana feel very skeptlcal.
 It will be surprising if there are more than 30 people who will winter there this coming winter, the ma iority of those who are leaving are buying or building boats and floating down the Chisana and Panama Rivers into Fairbanks, though many plan on going outside coming out by way of Mccarthy. The reason for the river trip is easily seen as those who SO that way figure the cost per person does not run over S2O. besides their getting a greater amount of baggage moved than would be possible were they to pay 25 cents a pound to have 1t taken to McCarthy.-(Cordova Times)

TWO YEARS FOR PERJURY.
Charles F. Provost Sentenced After
Confessing Guilt.

Charles F. Provost was sentenced to-
day by Justice Siddons in Criminal
Division to serve two years in the
penitentiary, following a plea of guilty
of perjury. Provost made an applica-
ton to the civil service commission
la st September for a position in the
navy yard, and in answer to the ques-
tion on the application whether he
had ever been indicted or convicted
of a crime, responded in the negative.
The mans record showed that he had
been twice indicted for forgery, but
the cases had never been pressed.
His counsel claimed that the answer
was made out of gross ignorance. as
his client was under the impression
that he had not been indicted be-
cause he had not been called on to
appear personally before the grand
fury. Provost had been convicted sew
eral times in the Police Court Of minor
offenses.
