Among the recent arrivals in Ne mana from the lower Yukon country, en route. to the states, was N. r. Johnson, a we'll known oldtime pros pector and miner who has earned for himself the enviable reputation of being a sticker in the prospecting game, undeterred by reverses cau- culated to discourage the average man, and this quality and the ac- cidental discovery of float as the incentive, enabled him to locate the paystreak on Long creek, in the Ruby district, of which he has the distinction or being the original dis coverer A great many prospectors and miners were later able to bene- fit by his find, resulting in the pro- duction of large amount of gold in that locality.
 MT. Johnson has been in Alaska for score of years or more and during the last three years has been prospecting in the Novigaget a tib- utary of the Yukon river a short distance below Ruby. He is pros pecting in this region in partnership with Bob Deacon.
 The oldtimer owns ranch in the Yakima valley, which is being look ed after for him by his brother and sister, and he is now on his way to visit them.
 Last winter he discovered new pay on Bear Pup, in the Ruby dis trict and his present trip to the States is partly for the purpose of purchasing a hydraulic outfit with which he intends to develop his discovery.

cabin in the Koyukuk wilderness and it was there, many miles from aid, that his misfortune overlook him. He had built fire in the stove and placed some Crisco in pan preparatory to cooking his evening meal W'earjed by hard days mush, he threw him self on the bunk to await the melting of the Crisco and was aroused sometime later to find the stove red hot. As he approached the stove in the dark, he tipped the pan of grease over upon him and in an instant both he and the cabin were ablaze. Un- mindful of his own peril, Josephson first set about putting out the fire in the shack, after which he ran out doors and rolled in the snow. But in the meantime, he had been terribly burned about the face and body, and particularly about the eyes. He nursed himself as best he could alone and was about to start for the nearest settlement some time later when he was discovered by a chance traveller. But for the timely arrival of aid, he undoubtedly would have died on the trail for he was practically blind and in no physical condition to withstand the hardships of winter travel. After nursing Josephson back to partial health, Koyukuk friends gave him what money they could spare and started him on his way to the States for expert attention. Fairbanks Pio- neer and citizens generally have also contributed to the fund for the relief of the oldtimer.

Alaska, at one time called the land of vast silences and mystery, still re- tains it nomenclature.
 The latest addition to the list of mysteries is the utter disappearance of two trappers who were operating in the Black River district, near the boundary line on the Porcupine river.
 From the information it appears the two men, named Smith and Rice, were operating on different sides of the boundary line, and in some manner an i'll feeling sprang up between them. Whether they engaged in a duel and both were killed, or one had done away with the other had not been solved up to recent date.
 Those who investigated report that they had found the fur cache of Smith and also where he kept his dogs. The animals were in an extremely starved condition-one had broken loose and was missing. Nothing was seen of Rice, although an intensive search was made to find his camp or trap line. The cabin occupied by Smith was in perfect order; the food sup plies arranged in order and covered over with a tarpaulin in the middle of the floor and other indications pointed to his making a trip. The dogs were found one days mush from his base cabin
 Until one or both of these men are found, alive or dead, another mystery must be tallied against that vast and little known region lying north of the Yukon river.
