 Some day we believe that there will be operations in that section as are in progress about Juneau. There are big leads of low-grade gold quartz running all the way from $1 to S6 per ton.
 At the present time the main difficulty to the development of this camp is the lack ot transportation. It is now rather difficult to get supplies up the Stikine river.

BASKET SOCIAL

On Saturday evening a basket social will be given at the Rink for the benefit of the Wrangell Athletic Club basket ball team. In connection there will be big dance. Music will be furnished by the band.
 This social is deserving of most hearty support, The basket ball team is the pride of Wrangell. It has never been beaten, and is therefore the champion team of the north. But without funds it can neither issue nor accept chal- lenges. It requires money to make a trip no further away from home than Petersburg.
 There are already prospects of games with Ketchikan and other points. It is probable that one or two games can be arranged here next week with Native teams from the West Coast which will be here in attendance upon the Fourth Annual convention of the Alaska Native Brotherhood. Don't fail to attend the social Saturday night, and give a boost to a healthful and entertaining sport. The present reputation of the Wrangell basketball team should be sustained.
