A report was received in Nome re gently that another new strike has been made in the Buckland district. Andrew Saao, the native who made the first strike on Koupuk creek, which is tributary of the BQcklaud river, is the man who made the new discovery, which is located on Howe creek, above Koupok. Sano, it is said, notified the natives at Unalakleet of the strike, but cautioned them not to let the informa- tion out to white men, as the latter were not wanted at the new strike: but with the true instinct of the sourdough prospector and miner, Tom Moore was hot on the trail of the five dog teams of natives leaving Dime for the new dig gings. No definite information as to the value of the strike has been re- ceiyed.
