Freeze-up Prevented Development Work This Fall, But, All Will
 Return Early in Spring
Cordial Spirit of Comradship Prevailed Among Stampeders = Claims Were
 Selected by Lot and Staked Without
 Any Pickering or DifficultyWhatever.

More than dozen Wrangeii stampeders returned on the hazel 5 No. Sunday afternoon from the new gold diggings Ill the vicinity oI Eagle creek. The freeze-up came before they reached the diggings, and it was therefore too late to do much except to stake claims.
 Among those arriving from the gold diggings were J. G. Calvin, Stephen D. Grant, George R. Syl- yester, James McGlinn. William H. Bitters, George Drapish. Jess Plat ter. Chas. Olson, Hugh R. Chilberg, Chas. Benjamin, Elmer Carlstrom, and Carl Carlson.
 There is little wood in the vicin- ity of the diggings and the little prospecting that was done was car ried on under difficulty, but evil dences of coarse gold were found along a stretch of ground represent ing more than sixty claims. The Wrangell stampeders are wildly en- thusiastic and will return to the diggings early~next spirng. ts5
 Plans are already under way for opening two stores and a restaurant ill tents at the diggings in the spring. Gold camp prices. will pre- vail It is estimated that flour will be sold at forty dollars a hundred and other commodities in propor tion.
 Considerable whip-sawed lumber will be taken into the diggings this winter and offered for, sale in the spring at the rate of $360.0O per thousand feet.

Road Survey
 To Shoemaker
 Bay Approved

For more than a year the Wran- eell Commercial Club has been be- seiging the U. S. Department of Az riculture with letters petitioning for road survey from Wrangell to Shoemaker bay. distance of four or five miles.
 A road to Shoemaker bay would open up a section of land which is admirably adapted to farming and truck gardening. but which is be- ing held back for lack of a road.
 The Shoemaker Bay region in- cludes more than 1000 acres of Gov ernment land that could be easily cleared; it is we'll watered, we'll drained with two permanent streams. The tract is we'll sheltered from northerly winds and is surely most desirable location for a small farming settlement.
 Today J. W. Pritchett, secretary of the Commercial Club, received a cablegram from District Forester Chas. H. Flory which reads as fol- lows:
 Secretary Agriculture has ap-
 proved road location survey to
 Shoemaker bay. Expect work
 will be done this fall"
