GENERAL NEWS OF
 NEW CAMP IS TOLD
Citizen Receives Weekly News Letter-Nothng Parcu- larly New in Way of Pay-Joe Eglar and Walter Fisher Abandon Prospecting Lower Livengood and Will Prospect Further Down Tolovana--Brooks Still Buding---McCord to Open Office.

near the divide between Livengo0d and Mike Hess. A few holes have encountered the coarse run, but tha extent Of it is as yet unknown.
 Jack McCord has struck town an, is hustling about contemplating opaa- ing an office tor the turning over of options and other deals as soon a. one may be prepared for his oceu pancy.
 Billy Ward, of Mahan X GiHis' store. has been considerably trou bled with his eyes of late but i5 recuperating slowly to normal again
 The town is still building. trend it's way up the creek. Work i~ progressing rapidly on the Julius Hoffman building in town, and at least half a dozen new buildings are nearing completion at the up- per end of town. Sites in the busi- ness section are practically unob- tainable.
 Everybody predicts a fine thriv- ing supply town on the Yukon One and all talk it. Not Rampart. but 8 convenient feeder town for tn mining property over the divide from here on the Yukon. They say some of the promising creeks ar only IS miles from the Yukon and that if 'o of course folly to car-v stuff clear around to Fairbanks and then here under such difficulties.
 The letter also tells about the bic trail dance instigated by Harry Pat terson, The ball took place Iaat Tuesday evening, two halls, one at each end of Brooks city being used by the dancers, who were taken from one to the other of the places of amusement in sleighs All Of the net profit of the dance went toward the Goldstream trail fund The clever advertising caricature work in connection with the dance was done by Fred Pauli
 On Saturday evening, Jan. & Mr and Mrs. Fd Rust gave dance which was virtually a wedding ro- cention. A fine luncheon was served The new bride and groom were the recipients of numerous pretty wed ding presents.
 The letter also states that the report that 3O-cent dirt had been found on Bear creek, in the Prom ised Land, is erroneous. Good pros poets, however, with pans going as high as three cents in coarse gold, were found there.

The Citizen is recently in re eipJ of it's regular weekly newsletter from it's Brooks correspondent. The letter gives all of the really inter esting news of the new camp in a business and gcssipy way. Extracts from it are as follows:
 While the town is no better, a feeling of future assurance seems to be supplantirg the despondcncy Of the holidays Money was never so tight anywhere. and all the Frcs. pectors are pretty well up against it. Everyone had to do their rep resenting work and could not take time to get GOwn to see what they had; with their grub stake running shorter have talked with the Cascadens and MT. Crook of Ester, MT. keene, the drill man. MT Au- gust Conradt, now working on Island creek, some 20 miles down Liven- good and others from Mike Hess and the Promised Land. and all seem to feel more cheerful, as each hole in shallow ground shows some cOlors and some coarse gold No thing to talk about, but more cheer ful than blank.
 Joe Eglar, Walter Fisher and others have been sinking with their ICovCtOra drill dou-, o, iroDrnD5 but have given it up. They are now going to prospect somewhere on the Happy trail between here and Fairbanks where there ie likely looking country They hope to sink some 100 holes to bedrock and thoroughly prospect tNo ground In the vicinity where they choose to settle
 One of the prominent men of the camn asserts that In the little draw directly across the flat from the town, prospectors are getting from Il to $7 tn the foot Tho ground is all staked and Is being exploited With wood fires
 Mrs. Cochrane, of Fairbanks, is stopping with Mrs, Cascaden. and is locking about for a business loca- tion for office room and a place to settle.
 H. | Miller Is for the present time help helping three men to sink a hole on some ground In which he is interested below the town They are not down yet; hence can- not fathom results.
 Good reports continue to come from Moose creek, long creek

Town Gossip and Stories
B, The Iattler.

From the audience We see a queer look come over the first iHdiridual' $ face. It resembles a look whi l could te stated to be 8 cross between lncredulity and anger. But as the other individual continues to pump his hand the former part of the look gains the ascendency.
 Therefore the first individual says, You certainly did not read that article, did you?" No" says the second. but l heard about it and I've been waiting here for quite a while to be among the first 10 offer my congratulations (stin pumping) Don't forget that job"
 Then it is that the wrath of the
 individual eXplodes. Not at his questoner and we'll wisher Oh nc, But all he says is You'd bet ter read that article It is q scur rtlCus attack. (Fine way to take a personal boosO.
 Our hero, the second individual seems much taken aback by the apparent anger of the first inGi- yidual, who disappears i'll the wings. He stands for a few moments on the stage with mouth open and hand still extended. He then bolts for the wing from which he first made his appearance. He comes out again presently, however, with hls hat in his hand, and. rushing across the stage. he disappears what seems to us in the to te the stage entrance but what really is the front door of the federal building. He Is going to the Tanana club to read The Alaska Citizen of last Monday morn ng.
 The article in question Is on the editorial page and is entitled Rot For Governor Our hero reads 1t through. Then. although New Years is past and gone, he makes his reso- lutlon.

All They KellenVille, the quartz Need Is mining settlement at the Extremes. head of Fairbanks creek,
 is some town. That fact is not disputed. In fact it is stated by Jimmy Fallon, but recently ar rived in town from the creek, that all that is needed to make kellen- vile a fullfl7dGod and dyed-in-the- wool town are these two extremes which are usually among the first to follow the footsteps of civiliZa- tion, church and a saloon, They even have a parson already staked cut, according to MT. Fallon, in the person of "Deacon' Lyden.
 The two chief establishments at kelenville are the stamp mills. There are two stores, and, as Egan X Griffin own one of them, the miners of the upper end of the creek can get their mail without going all the way down to discov- cry. And there are streets in kel- lenville. The chief one, Broadway, is the regular government trail. Then there arc Druly lane and Ott street an1 Heilig boulevard and Hess avenue, all named after some of the most progressive citizens of the community.
 Yes. Kellenville is some town al right.

Leaped There is on old axiom Before which, many time, has He Looked. saved trouble. It re-
 sembles, In a way, Poor Richards motto, Be sure you're right, then go ahead" It is, Look before you leap" The person about whom this story is about to be re lated, however failed to take either of the above old adages into con, sideration. But he now has them down in his book of rules and is authority for, the statement that never again in his life will he make stab to get anything unless he knows first that there is some chance Of his getting 1t.
 The scene of this little drama is laid in the main corridor in the federal building. In fact the corri- der will be cur stage. The wings of the stage are represented by the verious federal offices, the doors of which open on the stage. We the audience, are viewing the pro cedure from the end of the corri- dor next to the jail between the marshals and commissioners offices
 Enter a pompous individual from the stairs in the rear center of the stage He comes forward, and as we watch, he seems to be coming directly into the audience.
 His progress is halted, however by a hail. Good morning, governor, says the voice. And from one oi the wings there comes another in dividual with outstretched hand. who says again in the same congratula tory tone of voice, Allow me tc congratulate you. I hear you are out for governor of the territory Remember me when you are doline out the jobs"

NOME MAIL MAY
 BE SENT IN BY
 WAY IF SEWARD
SUCH ACTION WOULD HELP FAIRBAN<S-WE WOULD
 GET MORE MAIL.

Tt is stated on very good au- thOrity that the postal department has decided to test the trail between Sewarl and Kaltag with a view to carrying the winter mails to Seward Peninsula over the route now fol lowed from lditarod. The change of route has often been spoken of and it is well known that the routl by Seward is shorter by hundreds of miles, but now, it IS stated. Col Revell may soon make the trip to kaltag to investigate trail conditions :"
 The above is clipped from the Seward Gateway of late December Nothing concerning such plans is known in Fairbanks as far as can be learned but it is certain that such an action on the part of the post office department would be pleasing to Fairbanksans generally, for the reason that it would permit of that mueh more mail being brought to Fairbanks from Chitina
 At the present time between $50 and 600 pounds of mail per weCl goes to Nome through Fairbanks being brough- in over the trail from Chitina by the N. C. stages. And 1t is included in the 4,SO0 pounds per week which reaches this point. Therefore, if the government decided to send the Nome mail by Seward. such action would have the effect of permitting that much more Fair banks mail to be brought.

 George Hamilton is a recent ar rival in town from the Tolovana o"N"try He has been prospecting on Shorty creek with two partners. He reports that they sunk two holes to bedrock only Is feet in depth, and discovered good prospects. When Mr Hamilton returns to the Tolo- vana they will move their prospect i ing plant to Crater creek, in the Promised Land country, where they will do some more prospecting. i Dick Thorne has returned from Brooks, where he gave six moving picture shows He states that busi- ness is good.

Nance Out on Little lIdorado Cure Fer last week mining man Lumbago. became suddenly attiict-
 ed with an attack of lum llye or an extreme soreness of the hack. His friends looked about his cabin for some kind of liniment when they discovered his predica ment with the result that they found a bottle labeled "Liniment."
 One cf them immediately got busy massaging the invalid. In fact he was rubbed antil his hack was al. ~,o.t raw. But with no res ult, for the man became appreciably worse instead of better
 Locking at the label on the bottle once more, the friends of the in valid discovered that the liniment could be taken internally as well as externally They therefore start ed to dosing him up good and pltn.F. but it did no good

 They told the invalid of their mis- take. Then it was that he rose ro ia bis wrath and for moment they began te think that he didn't have lumbago at all, so quick did he move. And they moves (out of ;No cahin).
