MARSHALL WILL saT0aoaHA
 Hug BE BUSY CAMP

Parties arriving from Marshall on the Sea Lion Friday report that there was little mining work under way at the time the vessel left although con- siderable preparatory work was in progress on Willow creek, the princi- pal producing stream. Practically all the operators along this stream were busy at dead work of various kinds and there will probably be Q consid- erable increase m mining as the op- orators will be far better equipped, than was the case last year. Considerable prospecting was done during the win ter and much attention was paid to Marshall creek, situated about eigh teen miles from Willow. on which likely prospects were found.
 A number of other creeks in the vicinity were partially prospected but httle pay dirt was located. It is stated, however, that prospecting is exceed ingly difficult as most of the ground is permeated with water and bedrock was reached only in a few cases. One claim showing pay was found on Dis appointment creek, a stream running in the opposite direction from Willow and located on the. opposite side of the divide from that stream Prospect ing on Elephant creek also developed a few claims which are said to show up good. It is said that man named Pelcher is installing a urge hydraulic plant on this creek and will mine extensively.
 Willow creek a str.sm Line miles in length. on which the first discovery Of the district was made, will also receive considerable attention during the sum- mer, prospects having been located in several places during the winter
 Owing to the great difficulties en- countered in prospecting. many miners are reported quite willing 10 give a half interest in their claims to parties possessing drilling equipment in order to get the ground prospected. The demand for drilling is said to be such that the Guggenheim representatives in Iditarod. who visited Marshall dur

ing the winter. were contemplating bringing a drill from the lditarod section. Provisions were plentiful at prices considered moderate, during he winter. Potatoes sold for SS and $S per hnndred, flour q to B and bacon and ham was quoted at 40 cents per pound. Reindeer meat was plentiful all winter at 25 cents per pound: Jack Sherwood. we'll known in this section. was the principal pur- veyor of reindeer meat and is reported to have made q nice little stake by bringing deer from the upper Yukon and Kuskokwlm. There vas practical ly no game in the district. even the
 ;armisan failing to appear, so rc1n- deer formed the only source of fresh meat supply.
 Wood was plentiful at $l2 per cord
 ai lhc principal portion of the win ter payroll was derived from wood
 utting. About two hundred and fifty wintered in the district and the population was considerably increased during the early spring by arrivals from the Yukon and Iditaord.
 The mining outlook at the tune the Sea Lion left, June 2, was good. About ten outfits were preparing to work on Willow creek, one on Disappoint- ment and one on Elephant while much development work was contemplated. On the trip to Nome the Sea Lion stopped at Dime. landing eight men at that point.
 No new developments are reported in that section. Preparations for the spring clean up were under way but little mining was in progress owing to the inability to get wood combined with shortage of food. The arrivals state that Rube creek "a tributary of Peace river. was attracting much attention from the miners owing to the finding of prospects during the winter at several points on the stream. The new creek is located about eigh- teen or twenty miles from Dime.
