FIND NEW SHOWING
 ON GEORGIA RIVER

JO.Stenbraten (Stampede John) and A. M. Durback have returned from prospecting trip to the head waters of Georgia river, bringing with them samples from a new find which looks as though it might full fill the most optimistic prospectov's dream. The ore is a hard, white quartz, carrying a considerable amount of ealena and a bluish metal, the nature of which can be determined only by an analysis, which is now being made by John Hovland. The find is about eight miles from tidewater.
 Where the discovery was made the vein is cut diagonally by a creek, and Nature has done a con- siderable amount of preliminary development work in showing up the size of the vein, as we'll as it's strike and dip. The vein is four feet wide and stands practically perpendicular. It is a contact fis- sure, lying between granite and greensboro, and exceptionally free, having from four to six inches of tale on each wall.
 Some exceptionally fine float has been found on Georgia river, carry ing free gold and other metals, and a number of years ago the B. c. government built a trail several miles up the river to encourage prospecting. Stampede John has made a number of trips into the district, and now believes that he has finally found the answer to the "hunch" that caused him to persist in his efforts.

JACK MCCORMACK
 MAKES GETAWAY
 ACROSS THE LINE:

Jack Mccormack, who plead guilty short time ago to having liquor in his possession and was sentenced to three months in jail and $500 fine, is free, though forced to remain on the Canadian side of the line. By the simple expedient of pushing Deputy U. s. Marshal Mcdonald from narrow board walk down onto the tidefiats he was able to effect his escape across the line, and the authorities in Ju-' neau have decided to not bring ex- tradition proceedings for the req son, so it is understood, that the offense for which he was convicted constituted a misdemeanor and not a felony.
 On the morning of July Me Cormack had been down town in custody of the deputy marshal to settle up some business affairs. About noon. as they were returning to the local jail, the escape occurr- ed. They had turned from Volun- teer Drive onto the board walk that leads to the upper part of town, and when between the GUS toms office and the commissioners office, Mccormack shouldered the deputy off the walk. There is drop of about ten feet at this point and the mud is soft and sooey. Jack turned and ran back to Vol unteer Drive, only a few feet, and then across the line, being shielded from view of the deputy by the customs house woOdpile. When the deputy was able to regain terra firma, which he was forced o cross the line to accomplish, Jack was we'll on his way toward Stewart.
 He remained on the hillside un- til night and then surrendered to Constable Scarlett of Stewart and claimed protection as a Canadian citizen. This was accorded pend ing action by the United States au- thorities, and now that the latter have dropped the case, Jack is safe as long as he does not return to this side of the line.
 The escape was witness d by a large number of Hyder residents who were waiting near the head of Main street for conveyanctS 5 to take them to Stewart for the Dominion Day celebration, and constituted the chief topic of conversation throughout the day.

ising detachment in Hudgins, who
weighs 225 pounds; Shewell and
Levensky, around 1870, and Schreiner
and Zahm. about 1S5 pounds each. All

FELT HATS ANNOUNCE
FALL SEASONS ADVENT

Despite the ban which fell today on
straw hats there are yet a number oi
males TO be seen upon the streets with
capital shelter of the summer variety
and these courageous ones are, to
tell the truth, little envied by their
more formal brothers who turned out
this warm morning in felt.
1t is noticeable that few of the
younger men on the streets of Anna
polls appear to feel free from the
edict of fashion, which DEGREES that
the obituary OF straw headgear shall
be dated the 18th of September Just
why the young men feel less freedom
from the custom than do their fathers
and uncles is difficult to explain. II
is one of the few points in which the
newer generation appears to take
lead in sustaining tradition, and in
which their sober-minded elders
would seem desirous of razing the in
stitution.
Local hatters report that yesterday
and today have both recorded large
sales of the felts. which are to be had
in the usual new shades which are
provided in the hats of shades
ranging from a vivid black to a bril-.
liant mouse gray.

D|SBARMENT ACTION
AGAINST HARRY B. WOLF
STARTED IN COURT TO-DAY

BALTIMORE, MD, Sept. 15.-Dis-
barment proceedings against Harry
B. Wolf, noted criminal lawyer, who
was presented yesterday with Walter
Socolow and John Keller on a charge
of conspiracy to obstruct justice in
connection with the hold-up and mur-
der of William B. Norris, contractor
were instituted today before the Su-
preme Court by the executives and
grievance committee of the Bar AS
sociation.
Wolf is accused of professional
misconduct, and the Supreme Bench
was asked to appoint a date for q
hearing, at which time the criminal
lawyer will be represented by Samuel
X. Dennis.
Two specific charges are outlined in
the petition against Wolf, based on
evidence of John Keller, following his
visit with Socolow to the Wolf resi-
dence several nights after the killing
of Norris.
He is accused of misconduct in har-
boring Socolow when the lawyer had
knowledge that the latter was a fugi-
tive from justice.
The other allegations tend to show
that Wolf was party to the So
called scheme to break down the con-
fession of Frank w. Alters. who ac-
cuses Socolow of having fired the
fatal shot
