Late arrivals from the Tolovana |
country state that then is a stain- !
pede on in the West Fork country, the i
discoveries having been made on the |
Fork itself.
At the present time about ten out
fits are engaged in sinking to bed
rock and it is stated that about half
of Brooks is going to be on the!
ground before many days. Some time
ago it was prognosticated by mem
bers of a geological survey that gold
would be found in this vicinity as all
indications of a gold bearing strata
had been found. The late discovery
bears out the statement. Those who
are interested in the new discovery
believe that another good paystreak
will be uncovered.

THIS EVE IS
ONE OF MIRTH
This eve is Hallowe’en. Upon this
night mirth and revelry among the
younger people is supposed to pre
tail In tin past it has been tin
custom of those more mischieviously
inclined to remove gates, wagons ci
anything movable, to distant parts
from their original location, leaving
the owner the pleasant task of find
ing and restoring them to their prop
er places.
Hallowe’en is the name popularly
given to the eve or vigil of All Hal
lows, or festival of All Saints, which
falls on the first of November, Hal
lowe’en being ihe evening of the 31 st
of October. The fireside revelries
usually observed on that evening art
the survivals of the festival of Po
mona, on the first of November.

BALL PLAYER IS
AMONG MISSING
Among the names of those identi
fied of the dead recovered from the
wreck of the Princess Sophia appears
that of William Albert Smith. Smith
will be remembered by tlie people of
Fairbanks as the peppery young
catcher of the Fairbanks '.earn, bet
ter known as "Smithy.” The young
man was on his way Outside to en
list.
The identifying of the young man
helped Tl ear up the doubt existing
as to whether the "George liowey”
mentioned among the missing is not
John Oowie, the Fairbanks carpen
ter. Howie is the grandfather of
Smith and took the same boat out
of Fairbanks as did the .voting man.
It is assumed that they traveled to
gether to the stitles and undoubtedly
both were on the ill-fated boat at the
time of the sinking.
