General Mining News

ports from which were responsible for the latest rush, had practically all been stahed. However, the re ports of the rich find on Boob creek encouraged them to stake on that creek, as well as on Hurst creek, another tributary of Mastodon, and on Ledge creek. a tributary of the Tolstoi Mastodon was staked at most entirely by Ophir and Ruby people There are said to be many persons from Ruby now on the way 10 the scene of the discoveries.
 When the news Of the strike waa first heard in this city and district there was the usual amount of skep- ticism displayed but es fnrtAer re- ports came in the excitement grew until scores of persons soon were un the trail and other scores were making frantic efforts to secure tn" outfits. It is safe to say that the number leaving here was limited by the number of dog teams avail able In fact, many left for the new district on foot. Throughout the week as the returning mushers arrived with confirmatOry stories ol the richness of the find, many more left for the district, and more are to follow 1t the trails hold up. The soft weather has played havoc with the trails, and much of the distance 10 be traversed is now bare ground.
 In spite of the poor trails, how ever, many outfits are going in. Bob Roberson left on Tuesday with a boiler and complete prospecting out fit, prepared to make an extensive stay, and Jerry Baker likewise took in boiler for Fritz Walters. Rob- ersons outfi. will be transported as far as Fritz's roadhouse by horses. Many others who made the trip last week for the purpose of stalk ing returned and took in such sup plies as would enable them to coll duct operations until the opening of navigation, when supplies will be landed near the mouth of Boob creek by boat,
 The discoveries have been the one topic of conversation through cut the city and district during the week Each returning stampeder i3 buttonholed and questioned for con frmation of the reports. which is invariably given. All alike agree that there are no new developments 10 report, as the miners are usually arranging for transportation of sup plies to the new camp.

ONe.kRMED BOY IS
 GOOD BALL el AVER

Dick Hooper, of Texas tniversi- ty. has only one arm, but is enc of the best college baseball players in the country He is captain o' his team.
 Hooper is an outfielder He wears glove on his right hand the only one he has. After he catches ball he losses 1t into th" air anG slaps the glove under what remains of his left arm Then he grabs the ball out of the air and throws it.
 Hooper gees through the whol" operation with such speed that he can get a ball started toward the diamond after making catch al most as quickly as an outfieldtr with two hands.
 Last season Hooper threw out ten men at the plate He lad lQ5 chances in the field and did not make an error
 He is good batter He uses a short, thick bat Last seasCn he hit safely in sixteen consecutive games. making a better record than moot ss his IIlN F Hooper's last year at .nXa& Uni ve1sity. He plans to enter Dart mouth next year.

That there is strong feeling that Percy Haushton, the great coach of the Harvard football elev. eus. will nor return to coach the Crimson eleven next fall is admitted by one of the best players who wore the Crimson last fall. Richard Harte Jr., Harvard's best allaround athlete and the end who was re sponsible for the victories over Yale and Princeton last fall, is the liar ward man who expressed doubt as to whether the Harvard coach would return
 We are counting upon Haugh- tons love of football and Harvard" <" said Harte He has not announced that he will not return. The stories to that effect have come from peo- pie who are well acquainted with him, but he says nothing. However, in the past he has been the first 10 spike such stories However, if the wish is father to the action, he will return, for every loyal Harvard man is pulling fog him to return.

 Yes, our games last year were proof of that. The amazing amount of detail which he teaches a foot ball squad can hardly be appreCiat- ed from the side lines
 Harte was asked whether Watson. the brilliant little Harvard quarter back actually had a pocket in his football trousers in which he car ried instruction cards. Yes. Wat son did have a pocket in his foot ball trousers and 1t contained cards upon which were written signals and certain instructive points that ne needed occasionally to refresh his memory You know Harvard had an amazing number Of plays to carry last season, and a great variety of shift formations

 IDITAROD. April Seldom, If ever, in the history of the numel- ous gold discoveries that have eX cited the residents of this territory during the past few years, or since the sensational news of the kl0n- 1 like discoveries caused the greatest "stampede" in decades have the so universally favorable as those brought to Iditarod this week D" the men who joined the rush to the new dIggings on the Tolstoi Invariably it has been the case. even where fabulously rich placers have been uncovered, that among the first returning prospectors there were some who deprecated the cx- tent and value of the find anl genuneness. So far, although scores of men have returned from che scene of the discoveries on Boob and Mastodon creeks, not one has SO far been heard to belittle the first reports Indeed, with each returning musher comes news U even greater possibilities than were suggested by the first reports.
 Among the first of the Idiiarod . I Strandberg, the well known opera tor, who was one of the first to leave for the scene from this dis triCt MT. Strandberg says that the outlook for the opening up of a promising mining district is excel l lent. He made pannings on No ? below, Boob creek, taking three pans from the dump and three pans from the bottom of the shaft. These gave total of s1S0, which, Dave says, would indicate value of $250 to the foot. The gold is coarse, and there is about three or four feet of gravel. Pans taken by Earl Byers and Herb Riley from the same prospect gave similar re- suits.
 i A letter received in this city ] from J. S. Pitcher says that he has l pay in two shafts, one on the up- per end of discovery and one near l the upper end of No. 1 below. and on the Emmet fraction he says they have better than s3 per foot. and re- ports say it is getting better, but nearly all prospecting is at stand still. The letter was dated April |2
 When the first stampeders from Iditarod arrived on the scene they | found that Mastodon creek, the re

who had decided 10 await develop mcnts before joining the rush could not resist the pressure. and as the frosty weather of the latter part of the week made travelling possible the exodus stllI continues
 Already local business men are making tentative plans for taking in stocks of goods as soon as river navigation opens. A townsite has been located by W. A Vinal. of Ophir al the mouth of Mastodon, and has been named Cooper IL is said the trip to this point can be made by launch There will be no attempt to transport merchandise to the new district until navigation opens. now ever.

 From all appearances the news of the strike has been scattered broadcast, and the indications are that there will be tremendous rush to the new diggings with the departure of the first boats should the news received continue favor able The original stakers on Mas and Ruby people, and it is pre- sumed that these conveyed the news of the find to interested persons located in nearby camps prior to the rush which started from this city At any rate. stampeders TO- turning from the scene the latter part of the week report that num- bers of persons are arriving from Ruby and Long creek and points along the Yukon.
 Already preparations are being made for the dispatch of vessels from Iditarod with the opening of navigation and Earl Byers announc- es the departure of a launch at the earliest possible moment Other river men also are making similar preparations.
 The route from Iditarod by Wa ter is down the 1ditarod to the In noko, up that stream to the mouth of the Ditna which is few mics above Dlskaket, up the Ditna to the Tolstoi and thence up that water way to inc mouth of the Boob.
