REVIEW OF MONIES
 WINTER MINING

A review of the winters operations in the mining industry in the Penin- sula shows a vast number of small dumps out. None of these are nearly as large as that taken out by Mad sen Mebes x Co.,, on Center creek last winter the largest being Chat of the He'd Bros. on the Whale Bench. No new paystreak can be said to have been discovered. Very good pay was located on the Eureka claim on the submarine. near Snake river and itI is now being opened by Madsen and company. But this is not paystreak. for no continuation of it has been located upon adjoining claims The richest pay located so far has been that discovered on false bedrock on the Kathleen claims on Dexter Fill, on which Ohrem and partners are now working This pay caused a very great excitement and number less holes have been sunk trying to discover continuation of the pay, which is believed to be the old Grass Gulch paystreak. So far none of the prospectors have been lucky enough | to locate the pay Nugget Johnson i was supposed to have located a bon anza on the Tundra Lake claim, but the wild congregations thereabout ! have fzzled long ago. Others who | tried on the same claim to locate similar pay have failed.
 Strike Reports Without Foundation
 The discoveries reported have pass ed to the outside with considerable frills. most of which were foundation less. It cannot be said, therefore that any new paystreak has thus far been located

ARCHDEACON STUCK DEFENDS INDIANS
 OF THE INTERIOR

In one of the recent issues of the Iditarod Pioneer there is long arti- cle written by a representative of that paper after a lengthy interview with Archdeacon Hudson Stuck. Archdea. con Stuhk says that the country which he travGed after leaving Fairbanks is sparsely populated disease having carried off most of the natives. There are but few children left among the aborigines. diptheria and measels having done their deadly work. Four teen children died in single night in one village, according to the arch deacon.
 Mr. Stuck says that he favors salaried magistracy for Alaska. He says under the present system it is difficult to get efficient men to ac- cept the commissionerships in the outlying precincts
 savases Not Dangerous
 Archdeacon Stuck met Foster, the man who was reported to have met his death at the hands of Indians. The murder was supposed to have taken place in the Kantishna country. Mir. Stuck says that the reports of mur- ders by Alaskan natives should be thoroughly investigated before any credence is placed in them. Accord ing Co the clergyman the natives are the most harmless people imaginable, of amiable disposition, and not likely to resort to violence even under any great provocation. Speaking of the disappearance of Bob Lagin a well known prospector and trapper at the headwaters of the Kuskollwim. who was believed to have been murdered by Inidans. the Archdeacon says that his theory is generally discrcdited by men with whom he spoke. He says that the belief is that Lagln met his death by accident, probably by be. coming lost and freezing to death.

ANOTHER PIONEER HAS DISAPPEARED;
 NO TRACE FOUND

j FAIRBANKS June 1--Where Is Ho' mer Leonord? The postoffice author ities would like to know, his friends would Ike to know his sister in Portland would like to know Has the earth gobbled him up? Is he dead? Did he meet with foul play /! Did he meet with a natural death? Or what is the cause of his disappear ance?
 Homer Leonard is well-mown old. timer About year ago he left Fairbanks in small boat for Ruby. He arrived at Tanana, and 1t said to have left there for Ruby in the same small boat And that is the last that is known about him. There is money in Fairbanks for him. there are many friends here anxious and willing to do all they can to locate him, his sister has not heard from him. Does the mystery end there?
 Do You Know This man2
 Homer Leonard is about forty-six years of age. He was feet n inch es tall. and walked with a slight stoop. He was smooth shaven when he left here. His dark brown hair was ting. ed with gray. He had been in the North for many years, and was one of the Dawson pioneers. He worked as a shoe clerk in Portland. Ore. and was steamboat engineer in this country. During the season of 1918 he was engineer on the stern wheeler Little Delta. of which Si Atwell is master. The last work he did in this vicinity was in the spring of 1914. He quit work shohtly after the river op- ened up and left in small boat for Ruby He worked for Rowson & Fin lawson on the creeks.
 The Story
 Leonard was awaiting some money here, money due him from the Little Delta. Apparently he fully intended to return to Ruby when he left Fari- banks, for he had advised Si Atwell to send the money to him at Ruby in care of the N. c. Company. He has been traced as far as Panama. In the town at the mouth of the Tanana he got into rather heated discussion with a person in a Japanese restau- rant Shortly after that he pushed off. swung into the current, and as far as known. has never been seen since.
