BIG BLIND VEIN FOUND
 IN RIVERSIDE MINE

A blind vein of practically solid galena, said to be eight cen inches in thickness was encountered in the 44O foot level of the Riverside mine late last week, according U arrivals from Seven Mile. The find is said to have been CT tirely unexpected, as there was no known surface indicat- ion of it's existence. Those ae
 quainted with the mine assert that all present indications
 point to it's becoming a most prolific producer when the
 mill, now in the course of con-
 ,truction, commences operat- ion. Some of the ore recently encountered is said to carry exceptional values.
 An interesting feature of the present operations is that they
 are being carried on at a con-
 siderable distance below the evel of the Salmon River Val Hey and at no great distance above sea level.

REGENT VISITOR
 DIES SUDDENLY AT KETCHIKA AN

Private messages from Ketch- Iikan Monday morning an |nounced the sudden death at that place of w. w. Casey, Democratic candidate for rep |resentative in the Alaska Leg Iislature, who left Hyder Satur- day night, after addressing a local political meeting.
 According to the telegram, MT. Casey dropped dead, from heart failure shortly after his arrival in Ketchikan. The messages contained no fur ther details.
 The deceased was apparently in robust health during his visit here and his sudden de- mise comes as a great shock to local friends. He was aged about 65 years.
 In addition to serving two terms in the Territorial legis- lature, MT. Casey was one of the foremost citizens of the Juneau section and prominent ly identified with practically every important movement in that locality for many years.
 During a large part of his residence he was in the real estate business, the Casey-Shat- tuck addition to Juneau, one of the prominent residential sect ions of the capital city, having been successfully marketed by MT. Casey and associates.
 He was a staunch Alaskan, a man of sterling qualities and fine personality and his death lis a distinct loss to this section and the Territory as a whole.

5. s. WATSON ARRIVES
 ON FIRST TRIP OF SEASON

The Admiral line steamer Admiral Watson arrived late Saturday evening from Seattle with a large consignment ot general cargo, several passen- gers, and a good sized dis patch of first and second class mail from the States.
 The tonnage for this port amounted to a total of Al tons, 54 tons being for the Riverside mine, and including Ia complete heating plant, in addition to mill machinery.
 The mail shipment was some ting of a surprise to most Fly |derites. It happens however, that the Watson is regular mail carrier, to Alaska ports and will probably bring mai ton all future trips. Owing to the lateness of her arrival Postmaster Hill staid up most of the night to distribute the consignment, -an accommo- dation to the public that was greatly appreciated especially by the business clements. The vessel also took the outgoing mail on hand on leaving fol EKetchikan Sunday afternoon.

ANOTHER RICH STRIKE :.
 BEAR RIVER DISTRICT

A strike of rich ore was made Friday in the Glacier Creek mine in the Bear River area, according to authoritative in formation from Stewart. $.
 The strike was made in what is known as the north drift of the 500 foot cross cut tunnel, of which the last 200 feet or so was driven during the pres ent season. The rich ore shoot is said to be better than two feet thick at the point of con tact and shows considerable quantities of native silver and argentite.
 The strike was, not unex- pected, as three of the rich ore veins found on the Dun- we'll. were known to extend through the Glacier Creek properties. Surface assays from these leads also indicated the possibility of their devel- oping into high grade bodies with depth, samples averaging from $2 to $1O n gold, in ad- dition to silver values ranging up to 35 and 40 ances, togeth. CT with considerable values in lead.
 During the extension of the long tunnel this summer a fif- teen foot vein of well mineral ized quartz was encountered at 440 feet from the portal, in addition io the ore zone i:l which the present rich vein was encountered. The latter was first picked up about AIS feet from the portal. The vein at this point was about four feet in width, with values av- eraging around $15 in gold and silver. After cross cutting the zone, which proved to be something over forty feet in width, the management start ed drifting along the northerly extension, with the object of exploring three cross fractures known to intersect the main vein in that direction.
 The property comprises six claims and several fractions and is one of the most access ible in the Bear river section, being located only four miles from Stewart, within a short distance of the Dunwell trail, and at an elevation of less than one thousand feet. Power for operation is obtained from the Dunwell compressor system on the Portland Canal. The latter property adjoins the Glacier Creek group on the south, with the Dunwell in the north.

Additional machinery for the new Riverside mill arrived on the Admiral Watson. Although most of the machinery is now here, bad weather and other untoward conditions have de-
