ALASKANS ASSERT THAT NOME HAS CHANCE FOR PROSPERITY Nome, the metropolis of Bering Sea. has one chance of being restored to Its former pristine glory ? Plac er mining camp. It has another chance of being definitely placed on the map as one of the world's big quartz mining camps. That It how a number of seasoned Alaskans, who reecntly arrived from the North, size up the situation. Nome's two chances of achieving greatness are based on discoveries made this summer, the first being a | continuation of the fame us third beach line, made at Solomon Ba; by Otto Holla and associates; the second be ; ing a discovery of u tremendous num | ber of quartz stringers. interlaced i through a bed of schist, the whole for mation carrying gold. If the second discovery, which was made on Boulder Creek by W. L. Cochrane, pans out as well as its present development indicates, it Is probable that the source which fed the Nome placers has been uncovered and Nome will become a quartz min ing camp, surpassing the,Wittwater ! strand of South Africa and leaving tho raptdly-doveloping Juneau ore slues behind. High-Grade Ore The schist lying between the net work of quartz stringers is highly mineralized, assays made from it in dicating that It will pay fabulous ro turns on being crushed. Close to the quartz stringers are deposits of oxi dized Iron, which, upon being panned, show plenty of free gold. In fact, this material Is much richer than the con tiguous placer gravels. Pieces of rock, weighing five or six pounds, when pulverized, have re turned about half an ounce of gold to the pan, but theso pieces were ta ken from the points of contact bo twecn the iron and quartz and ure regarded as pockets. The filling mat ter between tho stringers contains on average of about $23 to the ton. The extent of the deposit has not yet been determined. It has been stripped by hydraulic nozzle for a dis tance of 150 feet in width. It lies between w-alls of lime and dolomite. The trend of the deposit indicates that it angles along In lino with the sea coast, and It is the opinion of tome geologists who have examined It that tho ancient beach lines, which yield ed millions of dollars and have been a geological puzzle, were formed by the sea washing,against, this deposit and concentrating the gold in the sands. First Discovery Twelve yearn ago a miner working on Twin Mountain Creek, close to Boulder Creek, found a chunk of quartz, from which he mortared three ounces of gold. The discovery was followed by a stampede, and several small tunnels were driven Into the hill in an effort to find tho vein from which the piece of quartz was shed. The lead was not found and the con clusion was reached that the rock must have been dropped there by some native In bygone days, or that some early Russian prospector had found It In the -mountains and had either lost or abandoned It while on on his way back to the beach. That Russians worked a portion of this country was determined by the Dnding of ancient Russian picks em bedded in tho gravel on Nakkala Gulch. It is now bplleved that the vein from which the rock was shed lies somewhere In the mineralized schist, which crosses from Boulder to Twin Mountain. Noma Excited Nome is excited about the new dts :ovory, and $50,000 will be expended in prospecting it next Bummer. The ground will be stripped by hydraulic lozzles so that the whole bedrock will bo exposed. When this is done .be points whero shafts wilt be sunk will be determined. The 500 or more Nomeltes who ar ?Ived recently on the steamship Vic :or!a are exceedingly enthusiastic lbout the future of their soctlon of Alaska. They say that in addition ;o the discovery of the quartz aud the rontlnuatlon of the third beach line i new placer discovery has been nade on the Koyuk river, which om >ties into Norton Sound about 140 niles from Nome. Practically the en ire population of Council City, which s situated close to the new strike, vas stampeded to the new diggings when the last boat left.?(J. J. Un lerwood in Seattle Times.) EQUINOCTIAL STORMS The widespread belief in the exis tence of an equinoctial storm and In Han summer comes, to a certain ex tent, under the head of popular su perstitions. If the equinoctial storm !s defined as a rainstorm, lasting at east three days and occurring with h two or three days of the 21st of September, then there is very seldom l year when several equinoctial storms lo not occur. The reason for the be lef is an equinoctial storm Is probab y the fact that about this time of the rear the first Btorms of ihe winter ype, with steadily falling tempera uro and precipitation, make their ap pearance. They stand in shurp con rast to the summer typo with sultry weather and thunder showerv The storms of the winter type can occur, lowever, daring any month of the summer. The amount of precipitation rear the 21st of September has been shown by averaging the observations it many stations to bo no greater han before or after this date.?(Met eorology.) TREA8URED HEARTS Before the Russians left Warsaw hey sent away from that city Its Dost prectous relic, the heart of Clio )in, which had been kept In a casket n the Church of the Holy Cross there ilnce 1849. It Is now In a place of tafety at Moscow. Sholly's heart was ilso preserved In a casket. When the >oet was drowned off Leghorn In 1822 lis body was cremated by Byron, -eigh Tunt. and Trelawny, and his mart rescued from the flames of the ast named. When King Robert Bruce of Scot and died In 1329 his heart, too. was reserved In a casket. It was given 0 his friend. Sir James Douglas, to >e buried in Jerusalem. On his way >ut to Palestine Sir James Dongias ell. fighting with the Moors in Spain, ind as he fell he threw the precious ?ellc before him on the battlefield, Tying out, "Now, pass onward as thou vert, and Douglas will follow hee or die."

D. Grant and others and recontly sold to J. G. Calvin and associates for $100,000. Of this sum $10,000 has been paid. The Wrangell Sontlnel, of Oct. 21, speaking of the development of the property says: "J. G. Calvin, James Yracy and W. D. Grunt, returned the first of the week from their trip to tho mining property in the Goundhok Basin. Mr. Galvln, who recently purchased the property, and Mr. Tracy, a well known mining engineer from Seattle, are very enthusiastic over the prospects of the new district. "Mr. Tracy left on a late boat for Seattle and Mr. Galvln went back to the claims taking eight more miners with him. Work will be started at once driving the tunnel Into the ere bed. Two crews will bo worked un til the oro body Is opened which will probably take about six weeks. If ev erything Is a9 expected by these men when the oro Is opened a large crew will be put to work and niachlnory taken In to develop tho property." The Sentinel of Oct. 28 says: I. G. Galvln arrived in from the mining property In Groundhog Basin the first of the weok. In speaking of the development of th< property, Mr. Galvln has to say: "We are driving the tunnel night and day and working three shifts and we expect to cue the 12-foot vein of ore which shows on the surface at a depth of 210 feet within the next 20 days. We are working twelve mon at present. In driving the tunnel to tap the main ledge we have cut clear through one ore body three feet In width and another four feet In width, which runs very high In load and sil ver ore. On the opposlto side of the creok from the present tunnel we have picked up two ledges, and tunnels have been started to tap the ore bodlos; one of which we iave already cut through and tho other one Is expected to be in a short time. Tho assays we have made of the different outcrop pings havo been very satisfactory and Is very encouraging. The twelve-foot vein of ore we have traced for about two miles, the cross cuts and stop pings in different places has proven this beyond a doubt. As soon as the" lake and trail freezes, we are going to cut a winter trail to the property, and will establtsh a winter camp, and then take In a diamond drill and other necessary mining machinery to block out and determine the extent of tho large ore bodies." Mr. (ialvln is planning a power plant on Mill Creek and also ten miles of an electric road and other necessary large scale tnd If tho ore bodlos con equipment to operate tho mine oh a tlnuo as they look now, operations will Increase." SIBERIAN "PINK" PACK IS HEAVY According to Oscar B. Kuorrlng, who recently returned to Seattle af ter having spent the season at one of the Siberian salmon cannories, tho Kamchatkan canneries put up 160,000 cases of fish, of which output 120,000 were "Pinks," or Churns as labelled In this country. Red salmon wero few In number and only 30.000 cases were packed. The Russian war department purchased most of the "Pinkn" at $6 per ease. About 50,000 tons of salt salmon were 3lso prepared.?(Pacific Fisherman.) DR. FANNIE WAITE Eyesight specialist?Valentine Block.

He says on a cer tain night when a Zeppelin was doing its worst over London there lived in the huge outlying sections of the city vast numbers of people who did not know what was going on, and whose neighborhood was Btlrrcd by scarcely more than a ripple from the distur bances which temporarily wero caus ed In placeo where bombs fell. The British casualty list published since Oct. 1, total 2285 officers and 50,072 non-commissioned officers and men. These figures show an average loss of nearly 2500 a day, considerab ly In excess of the casualties earlier In the war?and reflects heavy losses of the British in the rccont fighting in Belgium. During the summer the total losses averaged about 1500 dai ly. In April and May, when the heav iest fighting wns going on In the Dar danelles, the daily average was in the neighborhood of 2,000. Cardinal Ametto, archbishop of Par Is, Is In Rome on n secret and very Important mission. He has confided to friends that the obstacles against a reapprochment between tho French government and tho Vatican no longer exist, and has hinted there is a possibility that diplomatic relations will soon be resumed. A further contraction of the Ger man food consumption has limited the use of meat; none is to be sold on two days a week, and the supply re stricted on threo more days; a card system such as previously applied to bread lias now been applied to but ter, eggs and milk and also to some cereals. David Lloyd George British minis ter of munitions, announces that wo men 18 years or age and over engag ed in munition work receive a mini mum wage of $5 weekly. When do ing skilled work, on time or by piece, women get tho same pay as men. In response to requests from for mor citizens of the United States "to bo allowed to fight for their new home," tho Canadian goneral staff has issued an order for the raising of a "crack" batalllon of the new citizens of Canada. Petrograd advices say that tho loss es of the German air fleet In the Bal tic region since the beginning of tho war have been two zoppellns, four Albatross. 12 Taub aeroplanes and one seaplane. During the week ending October 29 only one British steamer, the Saler no was sunk by a German submarine. This is the lowest record for months in British vessels sunk. The Amestordam Telegraf says the workmen are building a new front be hind the Scheldt to provide for the eventuality of the Germans being ob liged to retreat. What shipping men believe to be the auxiliary yawl Eclipse, on which six of the German officers who were interned on board tho Kronprlnz Wil helm ot Norfolk are said to have man aged to make their escape, was sight ed overturned 75 miles northeast of Bermuda by the officers and crew of tho Italian steamship Labor.

About the font thing we can afford now U to get tbo national "big head;" to think that tho world Is at our feet and that wo have It on the run with a down hill shove. While wc have every rea son for gratltudo at our altered condi tion In the financial world and may rcjolco with soborness of spirit in our financial strength and In the fact that others owe us who are able to pay, Instead of our owing them, we must hot forget that the machinery of our modem business operates like an insurance company, to distribute loss es. that it Is Inevitable the vast losses of this war shall bo in time distribut ed nnd that we must pay our share. To speculate, thereforde, as If tho present hour were all, as If our abound lug wealth wore usver to be subject to strain, is to promote disaster. Rath er is it to remember that we must pay, be thankful that wo have the means with which to pay, conserve those means so that when the day of reck oning shall como It may bo easy. If wo are thus careful wo may take ad vantage of the fact that while all na tions, ourselves Included, must share in tho losses, it Is quite possible that In the sharing those who share may change places relatively ono with an other.
