The earliest placer mining in the
Alaskan part of the Yukon basin was
done on the bars of Fortymile river in
1885, and during the next two years
hundreds of miners came to the scene
of the discovery This event opened
up inland Alaska and led to the dis
covery of the famous Klondike placers,
on the Canadian side of the boundary,
some ten years later. Over $200,000,-
600 worth of gold has been taken out
of the KlOndike and the Alaska
Yukon placer camps in the 80 years

ical survey, department of the interior,

Measures spesd Of Clouds.

The comb nephonscope is device
for measuring the speed of clouds. It
consists of an upright brass rod about
nine feet long, bearing at its upper end
a crosspiece to which a number Of
equidistant vertical spikes are at
tached. The observer turns the cross
piece until the cloud appears to travel
along the line of spikes and notes the
time it takes to pass from spike to
spike. This forms a basis from which
he reckons the speed.
