Day of Triumph for Chi
cago Amateur in Open
Title Play.
CHICK MAKES TWO
ROUNDS IN 1919
Wilfred Reid in Second Place
PEBBLES and Barnes Tie
for Third.
BY FRED HAWTHORNE.

Minneapolis. Mimi. June 29.-Play-
ing one of the greatest games OF his
brilliant career on the links, Chick
Evans, Of Edgewater, Western ANA
teur champion, led the field of sixty
four professionals and amateurs here
to-day in the first two rounds Of the
national open golf championship. Ev-
ans went around in the morning in a
fawless 70 and in the afternoon
chopped one stroke of his first effort,
making a SO, for a total of 1879 strokes.
This led Wilfred Reid, of England,
representing the Wilmington Country
Club, three strokes, the little Briton
doing 70 in the morning and 70 in the
afternoon, for a total of 142.
Neck and neck in third place were
Rob PEBBLES, Of Shawnee Heights, and
tall jim Barnes, of Whitmarsh Valley,
both of whom had totals Of 145.
George Sargent, Of Minneapolis, came
next with 146, the same score credited
70 Robert G.. Macdonald, the stalwart
Scot from Buffalo.
The first Of the homebred profess
SIGNALS 70 show was young Jack Dow
ling, Of Scarsdale, who had a total Of
l47 strokes for the double round.
Day Of Triumph for Evans.
II was a day of triumph for Chick,
who has been trying year after year
TO win one of the two major titles, the
national amateur or the national open.
Tonight 1t was the ruling opinion
Evans has better than an even chance
to duplicate the feat accomplished only
once before In the history of the game
in this country when Francis Ouimet.
in 1913, and the only Jerry Travers'
last year at Baltusrol. led home the
greatest pros playing to-day.
II was a matter of clubhouse gossip
before the start Of play this morning
that the professionals entered had made
stern resolve TO stand firmly against
the entertainments of the amateurs. IL
did not much matter who it was who
led the field, only provided the man
who did was one Of those who make
their living on the links.
When Evans's morning round was
posted on the board by Frank L. Wood
bury, president of the L. s. G.. A.. il
was freely predicted by certain of the
pros that the afternoon would tell a
different story, and that the slender
Chick had shot himself out on that
first round. In spite Of the cheering
forecasts of what was to come, a heavy.
opaque air of gloom settled over the
money chasers, and il was not until lit
tie Reid. the stocky Briton came romp-
ing home with another 70 that they
took heart again.
Promising for Reid.
For a time. in the afternoon il
looked as though Reid would beat out
the amateur. Chick reached the turn
in par SO, but fifteen minutes later
along came Reid three strokes under

 RICH ORE FROM
 CLAIMS AT TElkELL.
 Joe Mccoy is spending a few days in town, having come in re gently from Teikell, where he is developing gold quartz property owned by himself and others. He brought with him specimens of ore from the property, which is certainly good to look at and most encourag- ing to the owners, as it carries val ues well into the thousands, being literally studded with free gold. MT, Mccoy and three men have been working for several months past in developing this ground and have run tunnel to tap the ledge at depth of about 120 feet, and are now within six to eight feet of it.. During the driving of this tunnel they cut a small vein of extremely rich ore. ranging in width from three to eight inches, on which a drift was run for some distance, and which yielded high grade ore for the entire distance.
 On the main vein, which varies ! from nine to eighteen inches in width, the development work con- sists of an open cut about twenty feet in depth. and from which the average of the samples taken give a yield of better than $60 per ton. The tunnel now being run is ex- pected to tap this vein within a ew feet at a depth of about 12O feet MT Mccoy had run out of coal and powder and was compelled to return to town for supplies. He expects to return to the property | within a short time to continue the | work of development. The claims are situated about one mile. from | the Teikell station, or about 58 miles from Valdez and are only one and ne-quarter miles from the gov ernment road, with good trail leading to the mine. A number of tons of rich ore have already been taken from the upper workings, and MT. Mccoy expects to bring this to town and have if milled during the summer
 l The work so far done on these claims has proven so encouraging that MT. Mccoy and his associates will continue the development dur, ing the summer, and before fall ex- pect to have one of the best proper ties in the country opened up Valdez Prospector

MAY FIND NEW MINE
 AROUND BERNER'S BAY

The opening of another large mine in the Berner's bay section is one of the near possibilities if the ex- pectations of H R Shepard and Grover C. Vim are realized.
 The two men have been shown rich samples of ore from the sec tion by "Berner's Bay John," the old native who has lived there for many years The Indian claims to have discovered a ledge of ore, back several miles from the beach and has offered to show the two men where the ledge is located if they will give him a sack of flour a sack of sugar, side of bacon and $2O a month for the remainder of his life.
 "Berner's Pay John" first showed the samples to H. R. Shepard sever al years ago and for the past four years MT. Shepard has been trying to get the native to take him to the ledge. He has made three trips to Berners bay already this sum- mer, and is there now.
 Grover Winn, who went out the last trip, was forced to return. but will leave again tonight for there, The first time MT. Shepard went to Berner's bay this spring, Old John, for some reason known only to him self, refused to take him to the ledge The next trip John had blood poison and was taken to the hospital in Juneau and cared for until he recovered This time MT. Shepard has been absent for the past two weeks, and Grover Vim, his partner, feels confident that he is getting results.
 "I don't know what the proposi- tion is," said Grover Vim. Der ners Bay John has some wonderful samples which he has shown to us ledge several miles from the beach I don't know whether the ledge will prove to be worth working or not on account of it's location, but we are investigating MT. Shepard is there now and I am going out soon We will probably know when We get back whether we have a mine
 "Berners Bay John" has lived al Berner's bay practically all of his life He first had his hunting lodge there and later claimed Berner's bay as his home. He says he dis covered the ledge several years age while following bear trail, but has
