PR0SPECTORS BADLY FROZEN
 ON THE TRAIL

| James Brown and Dan Campbell, two well-known prospectors, were brought to Mccarthy from the Chisana trail Saturday evening by Mail Car Tier J. Mcclellan in badly frozen condition, and are now under the doc tors care at the Kennecott hospital.
 Leaving Chisana December 3, they encountered severe storms in the vii cinlty of Russell glacier, but man. aged to make the relief cabin on this side, where they stayed till the weather cleared sufficiently to enable them to make another start
 Jimmie says that they were mak- ing fine progress until severe storm overlook them on the Nizina glacier, only four miles from Gwinn's old barn, which, though dilapidated, would have afforded them shelter for the night: The storm became so violent that the dogs refused to face it, and as they were off the trail, the men decided to camp for the night on the ice.
 Abandoning the sled and dogs the following morning, they finally reached this barn, where they at- temepted to thaw out, then continued on to the Homestead" where they stayed sixteen days. By burning up the spare hunks and using the mail carriers grub, they managed to keep alive till he arrived, having been de- layed at the White river for over a week on account of storms, the ther- mometer at times registering 60 de. grees below zero. Mcclellan immediately went back to the glacier for the boys outfit and team, but only found one dog alive. Three are believed to have returned to Chisana, and three were found frozen. Though there was plenty of fish and meat on the sled, the faithful beasts had touched nothing.
 Joe Mcclellan and Bill Maher then started for Mccarthy with Brown and

 Just exactly how seriously the boys have been injured can not be ascer- tained for day or so, but it is feared Campbell may lose a foot and Brown some fingers and toes
