not enough fish along the entire Yu-
kon to supply one village.

The body of Ed Fournier, employee
of the Arctic pool room at Juneau,
who has been missing since Septem-
Der 8, was found last week floating
in the Gastineau channel The spot
where the body was picked up was
about 200 feet from where Fournier
was last seen on the Pacific coast
dock. There was large bruise on his
forehead which is supposed to have
been caused by humping his head on
the piling. A gold watch was found in
his pocket which had stopped at z
o'clock. Little was known of the
mans antecedents. He had been in
Juneau for some time but had re-
ceived no mail there and had but
few acquaintance.
Recent arrivals in Nenana from
the lower Yukon river bring the re-
port of new discovery of placer gold
on Buster creek, a tributary of the
Kako river which empties into the
Yukon on the right limit about eight
miles above Russian Mission. Details
of the strike beyond the fact that gold
has been found on five claims were
not obtainable by the passengers who
brought the report to Nenana, but of
the discovery there appeared to be no
question. Kako creek, as it is shown
on the maps, is short stream head
ing in the hills at the western end of
Ilivit mountains. Directly across coun-
try, to the west, is the Marshal dis
trict, comparatively short distance
overland, but a considerable num-
Der of miles away by river route,
probably rs to 100 miles down stream.
Kako creek is said to be navigable to
within short distance of the creek
where pay is reported to have been
found, offering an easy means of tran
sporting supplies into the district.
Buster creek is a considerable dis
lance up stream from the mouth of
Kako.

Mr.. McCandIess sustained a com
pound fracture of the skull. He
has lost considerable blood since
the accident and this has tended
to weaken his condition.

cycle driven by Santee stated to-
day that the accident was unavoid-
able and that no blame can be at
tached to either party. The auto,
