 Here's how the national list shapes up:

ProspectOr Founded State
Capital; Christened Helena

Here Is the story Of Robert Stab

discovery Of gold In Last Chance
gulch, which led 10 the founding Of
the city Of Helena: EFT was In the
spring Of 1854 that the KOOtenai
stampede from Alder gulch took
place. During the winter many
reports Of the discoveries at kOOtenat
circulated in Virginia City and other
camps, and every miner, not in pos
session Of q paying placer claim, was
keen 70 reach the new EidOranO.
Among these were four miners
Cowan, Crab, Miller and Stanley, at
forwards credited as the discoveries OF
Last Chance glllch, who had been pros
pecting in the Hell Gate country. While
on the way to the KOotenai country
they met miner named James Cole
man, who told them that the Kootenai
was not what it was reported He
was on his way back to Alder.
However, the Cowan party had
three months supply Of provisions. and
they decided to keep in the open and
continue prospecting. They prospected

and this name and Tomah went before

Of the capital Of Montana would have

OF the discoveries, John Cowan, af-

placer claims, went 70 Georgia, the

Approaching Last Chance
Next morning the descent into the
valley began. A game trail was found,
and this made the progress Of the lit
tie expedition fairly easy. Game
abounded on every hand, so tame as to
afford no sport in the killing. Cowan
and his men made their first camp in
the valley at what was afterwards
known as Seven Mile gllch, the first
gulch north Of Last Chance. They pros
pected on Seven Mile gulch for some
time, but found nothing more than

parlance, gold enough In the pans to
shine, and give forth color. Following
down the gulch they descended into the
valley Of the Prickly Pear, and turning
to the right they camped for their noon
