LARGE LEDGE OF ASBESTOS
 DISCOVERED BY R. E. BURNS

What is believed to De the lsrg- est and most valuable ledge of as bestos in Alaska, has been discovered on the ridge on the East Fork of the Chulitna river. about a mile and a half from the Governmen rail- road, at Mile 293. The discovery was made by Robert E. Burns, of Nenana, who returned to town this week with samples of his find, which he will send Outside off expert ex- animation.
 Mir. Burns left Nenana about a month ago, on a prospecting and exploration trip which took him to the coast. He ran across the asbestos on the trip home. He was two days locating the ledge after he had found pieces of float indicating its pres ence in the vicinity. He had no tools with him at the time, and the samples which he brought to town were taken from the ledge by hand. The ledge has a width of about a foot where MT. Burns found 1t, which is very exceptional and in- dicative of great value. The dis covery caused considerable excite ment along the railroad and many claims are reported to have been located. MT. Burns recorded his claims at Talkeetna.
 During his outing, MT. Burns visited Anchorage, and reports that the discovery of a new oil seepage within three or four miles of the railroad town has aroused new in- terest in prospecting in that locality and the indications were that at least two outfits would install rigs within short time. Interest is also keeping up in the Cold Bay region end 1t Is expected that drilling will be under way by several parties within a short time.
 The Anchorage company, which installed a small drill last summer, is now raising additional capital to buy a regular rig and the outlook for further development in the near future is very bright. This company has a location about four miles from town.
 MT. Burns says he stopped at the roadhouse which is being con- ducted by Frank Tondro, in the Southern division, and says the place is being conducted in profes- sional style. the ''Malamute Kid" having developed into a regular hOtelman. The Kid now has 79 dogs at his place, for use on the trail next winter. @.::*:. #"
 Mir Burns met .'Dr" Brooks on the trail, headed for the Kantishna, and was informed by the geologist that he had only ten days at his disposal for the trip, it being his intention to return to the coast as soon as he returns to the railroad from the Kantishna. ~. ..>- --.--~

Travellers from Morgantown and

wake an atmosphere filled with life.

The storm which had been threat

was seen at its best at townsville.
Shortly after s o'clock heavy drops
Of rain began to fall at first perpen.
dicularly, then as a wind arose and
tho rainfall increased the rain was
driven down the river at an angle
Of about 45 degrees. Then as II to
show what a good old fashioned
storm can do when on a rampage,
after blowing steadily down stream
for about half an hour, the wind
suddenly yeered around to the op-
poslte direction and blew a hurrI-
cane upstream, lashing the waters
OF the river into foaming whltecaps
and driving before It everything
that was not well moored.
The rain was accompanied by
continuous thunder and lightning,
and some hail but not enough to
cause anyone to hunt up goose eggs
Tor purposes of comparison.
After the storm had subsidized at
about quarter to seven some Of the
freak stunts that usually 90 with
such atmospheric disturbances
came to light.

About a half hour later the gov

muttering that he'd be doggoned If

A young lady bound for a party in
Fairmont stood In the waitingshed

the 5:S4 train pull in and depart
without making any effort TO board
It for well she knew that IL she
made the attempt her fluftiness
would be very much like the pro.
