WHALE STILL IS
THE ATTRACTION
AT FORT G!BBON

In a letter received from Tanana
on the last mail dieter dated Dec
ember g. the news is contained
that the Beluga whale is still at
tracing a great deal of attention
at the army town, and up to date
of writing had successfully eluded
capture: 1t would appear that the
quarters on the river occupied by
the whale is growing more circum-
scribed and his food supply scantier
daily, and the chances of his long
surviving the efforts of the towns
people to capture him also grows
simmer
TEAMMATES are looking forward
to fresh whale steaks in the near
future and as much as 5000 has al
ready been offered for the carcass.
The letter states that the whale
is a young Beluga and that it will
probably measure from II to 20
feet in length. He is reported to
be not as fat as when first seen
in the river, owing to the scarcity
of food.
The latest type of harpoon and
the necessary tackle is being got
ready and it is expected that the
next attempt to capture him will be
successful.

was possible, he said, that the quar-
antine would be extended to oper-
ate against the kantishna country,
because of the reported presence
there of migrating natives, and the
danger of exposure on the Kusko-
kwim side.
Chairman Mcdonald spoke in
favor of continuing the quarantine
against Fairbanks, arguing that the
upper town could not, by the meth
DDS adopted, keep strict tab on the
people within their boundaries. In
the absence of such regulations, he
believed, Nenana should continue to

IN
TANANA DISTRICT

Although there are not many
prospectors in the country and
creeks adjacent to Tanana, it is
fairly we'll known that considerable
tin and galena and some gold oc-
ours in the Tozi river country
taries.
Mrs. E. B. Gilmore, of Tanana,
owns the principal, and so far as
is known, most valuable tin ground
on Moran creek. Mrs. Gilmore lost
her husband about a year ago, and
so she knows only what he had told
her about the claims.
Moran creek is a tributary of the
Tozi river, which it enters on the
right limit. At places along the
creek the bedrock outcrorpings oc-
cur at several depths, the deepest
being about IA feet, the average
depth being about 9 feet. The bed
rock is said to slope towards the
creek.
The tin is found all through the
gravel; one crosscut yielding six
ounces to the pan. There is said
to be sufficient gold in the gravel
to pay expenses.
The late Mr.. Gilmore sent sack
, of ore to the American Smelling
and Refining Co., at Maurer, N. Y,
and the return was as follows:
sack tin ore, gross weight 179
lbs; net l7s lbs. S. N. 65.1 per
cent; S. Obs per cent; tin, 116
lbs a 35c, $4,000.
The Moran creek tin is said to
be higher grade and comes in
larger pieces than the average tir
! found in the neighborhood, and as
the ore is by no means smooth, there
would appear to be very gooc
chance to trace it to the vein il
place.
In the neighborhood of the head
waters of Moran creek, the late Mr.
Gilmore found galena ore in place
but he was not a hard rock minel
and consequently did not spenc
much time on the discovery. Man,
an assay, however, made by L. NJ
Drury, of Fairbanks, showed al
average of 112 ounces of silver t.
the ton, while there was from q
to 70 per cent of lead present.

GIANTS WEAKLINGS
AGAINST PIRATES
Defeated in Last Game Of
Series-Their Playing En-
ratio Throughout.

PITrsBuRG, Aug 20--A figure "2"
nesting like an oasis In a desert OF
cphers represents the total result Of the
offensive efforts of the Giants in their
final appearance of the season in this
city. As the Pirates collected ten runs
between lunch and dinner II is not din
cut TO perceive that the victory achieved
yesterday by the McGrawites was only
fash in the pan. So far as actual hits
were concerned me pitchers were almost
on an even basis. but the blows delivered
by the Pirates were conjunctively
placed. while the safe thumps by the
Giants were registered at painfully
irregular intervals.
Steele also was uncertain as to the
direction of his delivery. as witness two
wild pitches. The Giant hurier was be-
set by discouraging bungiing on the part
Of his helpers, who have regulations for
accuracy and steadiness.
Burns, Doyle and Fletcher were guilty
of costly misplays, while steele himself
contributed two reprehensible bungles.
1t therefore Is not surprising that tho
Giants were not in the hunt at any
stage of the proceedings. After the
Pirates had gained Ave run lead the
Giants collected their pair Of lonesome
tallies. This took place In the fourth
session and was tho only point OF the
contest In which the Giants hit the ball
