Tom Gaffney arrived in the city last nigh. from an extended trip down the coast and into the interior Council section. Gaffney states that Dime creek is sure winner and that all men who have stayed by the camp are in a fair way to make little stake.
 Wood for fuel is the greatest draw back which the camp has to contend with according to Gaffney who states that Lars Gunderson has paid as high as s17 a cord for wood laid on the claim. Lars has shut down on that account.
 Another great drawback in the Nor ton bay camp is short road from the landing to the creek This is but six miles of haul but costs the opera tors three cents pound which takes Bonanza ground to offset such ex- pense.

 This will about wind up the no- torious career of Thaw. who has kept himself in the limelight since his kill ing of Stanford White in 1906.
 For years he fought for his release from the Mattawan asylum where he had been placed through the action of District Attorney Jerome, and while he spent fortune in this fight he was unable to get any results so he conspired to make his escape which he did successfully.
 He remained in New Hampshire for several months fighting extradition and finally returned to New York. shortly after which he committed an- other crime and fled to Philadelphia. When found he attempted to com init suicide and was placed in the hospital from which he has now been taken, and where it is believed that he will spend the rest of his days.
