afternoon from an uneventful trip

Sheldon's only inbound passenger
was Fred Robinson who has been
engaged in repairing one of the

The parts were brought in for re-

will then be fully equipped for oper-

That every prospector in the TolJ-

WINGED that Livengood creek car

future before it as a producer is
the report of J. c. Kinney. the well
known Ester creek and koyukuk
mining man who returned to town
last night from the new diggings.
Accordingly. all are working hard
expecting that every thaw will show
them bedrock carrying pay similar
to that already located on at least
two claims.
The ground on which pay has been
discovered, according to Mr. Kinney.
is Discovery and Number above
On Discovery, Hudson Brothers and
Jay Livengood have been prospect
ing, and have uncovered ground
which is estimated as going about
1925 to the square foot of bedrock
In fact the last four feet of dir;
goes from one to ten cents to the
pan.
The prospectors have not yet dis
covered the width of the payatrea6.
they have taken but two thaws fro
each side of the shaft but it is b.
lieved to be extensive as the bed

the right limit as the work proceed
The depth to bedrock on Discovery
is 20 feet
The other claim on which pay has
been discovered is Number > above

Emil Nelson. their prospecting show
ing that they are in the same kind
of ground as that on discovery. Il
is Is feet to bedrock in their shaft.
They have done no drifting as yet
but expect that their tunnels viii
show the same pay as they uncover
ed in the bottom of their shaft
On number A and IA above Gus
Conradt and associates have five
holes to bedrock. 1t is rumored that
they also have pay, but they are
saying nothing. Several other out
fits on Livengood from the abe
named claims to the head of the
creek also have likely looking pros
poets.
Below discovery there is no sign
of bedrock yet although some oil

a depth of over 100 feet Marsh &

Asked concerning the report that
pay has been located on Mike Hes
creek, Mr. Kinney stated that he
knew nothing about it He had
heard something of the kind. bu
says that he has no authentic in
formation concerning it.
Mr. Kinney was one of the first
stakers in the Tolovana district. He
has every confidence in the future
of that section, giving the formation
found there as his reason and stat
ing that black sand and rubies
which have been proven to be essen
tial to paystreaks in nearly all
northern camps, are to be found
there in abundance. He has just
completed all of his location work,
and will return to the Tolov.w
within the next few days to start
prospecting on his ground.
