Further Tests Are
To Be Started In
Very Rich Ground
DIAMOND DRILLERS TO INVES
TIGATE 225 AND 500 FOOT
LEVELS AT SEALEVEL.
Additional machinery and equip
ment is being taken to the Sea-level
properties of the Evis Mining com
pany for additional prospecting of
the ground that is believed to con
tain one of the highest grades of ore
in the Territory of Alaska, says a
recent issue of the Ketchikan Daily
Chronicle.
C. B. Secrest of the Lynch Broth
el's diamond drilling firm arrived
from Seattle with the equipment
and left the following morning for
the mine. He will be in charge of
the work.
The Sealevel ground, which is lo
cated at the head of Thorne arm,
was recently tunneled to tap an ore
body that was located by diamond
drilling and which yielded speci
mens of rich gold bearing quartz.
The present work will be to deter
mine the size of the ore body and
to see how well it stands up in val
ues at different levels.
The immediate objectives are at
the 225 foot and the 500 foot levels.
The values located in the Sealevel
property have been extraordinarily
high and encouraging op the pres
ent time, Secrest asserts. The best
of it, which he admits is encounter
ed only rarely, is what he terms ‘the
richest unearthed in Alaska.’
So far values in the rest of the
!ground have been high enough to
I warrant operations and if the tests
being taken now prove up as well,
machinery will be ordered to start
production as soon as it can be in
stalled, he slates.

These natives of the new world,
which have become serious pests
elsewhere in Europe, have lately ap

been considered a matter for self
congratulation among Scottish con

Old Witch Book
Ordered Burned
By London Judge
fRv The Associated Press)
LONDON, Aug. 14th—Among 80
books on various subjects recently
seized by the police at a London
publisher’s a Westminister magis
trate ordered 18 to be destroyed as
coming under the statute inhibiting
the sale or possession of obscene
bonks. Among them was one on
witchcraft,which the counsel for the
publisher said ‘has proved of great
value to students interested in the
subject,and it will be a serious thing
if the court orders its destruction.’ i
As the court proved obdurate, the
counsel added: ‘I submit, Your
Lordship, that since I have been un
able to have the sentence nolpross
ed, the execution be performed by
fire, as most appropriate in the cir
cumstances.’ The judge smilingly
gave orders to that effect.
