gold has poured from the creeks and
beaches of Alaska and been convert
ed into money reckoned into millions.
Hence the sight of gold either mint
ed or mounted at once directs ones
mind to the land of the midnight sun.
What more appropriate then, than
piece of nugget jewelery, either as
a frame for the beautiful mastodon
ivory, stained by the countless years
it has endured, or nuggets joined in
chain work by a skilled artisan. A
brooch or solitary nugget of curious
natural shape is a souvenir which
tells the story of the mad rush to
the Klondike.
The fact that a purchase of nugget
jewelery is in reality an investment
in an article that cannot depreciate
seems to be dawning upon the vis
itors to the Northland and the sales
are rapidly Increasing in this line

11. D. Kirmse has made a study of
the art of nugget jewelery mounting,

The history of mining development
in the Valdez section Is not unlike
that which has fallen to Skagw&y'a
lot as is being proven by the latest
developments In the Skagway valley.
The following story which has been
clipped from the columns of the Val
de<t Prospoctor will be of interest to
Skagway. The Prospector says:
Declaring that Valdez would some
day become the center of a great
quartz mining district, L. T. Shelton,
who came north in 1898, wrote a longi
article in the Seattle Post-Intelllgen- j
eer in 1SHS. on his return to the
states.
His prediction was ridiculed and
the paper shortly after came out
with an article stating that ho was
merely trying to boost the camp
In the interests of the Alaska Steam
ship company.
Twelve years later Mr. 8helton,
who arrived In town last week from
his home in Tacoma. has the satis
factkT of seeing his prediction come
true, i
Mr. Shelton came to Valdez in the
early rush of 1898. In company with
M anker, Magee Bruce, 'Gene Ames
and other.*, he crossed the glacier and
for a year prospected on the Klutina,
Tonsina ajtd other creeks. At that
time he noticed the presence of
quartz and staked several claims.
When he returned to the states he
attempted to raise money to do the
assessment work on the ground, but
failed, as he was told this was not a
quartz country.
Mr. Shelton has since been in the
lumber business in Tacoma. He is
interested In some claims and is at
present here to look over the prop
erty.
UNCLE SAM
GOAL MINER
SEATTLE, July 14? Probably the
first coal to be mined in the much
disputed Alaskan areas will be taken
out by the government. The latest
project is to establish & Naval Coal
Reserve. From this, fuel will be pro
duced for naval operations in the Pa
cific Ocean. Although this will be
a step forward, it will not relieve the
situation with regard to the people
of Alaska who need coal, as well as
those of the Pacific states. As an
indication of what may be expected
if the Northern fields are opened, the
Copper River & Northwestern Rail
way has already declared that it will
build one hundred miles additional
trackage as soon as the government
say# "go ahead." And now all are
waiting on Uncle Sam.

Major D. J. Carr, tn charge of the
United States Washington-Alaska,
cable and telegraph system has been
In Skagway for the past several
days awaiting connections north and
will leave on tomorrow morning's
train for Whitehorse where he will
make connection with a steamer for
Yukon,' river points.
Major Carr inspected the stations
at Ketchikan, Wrangell, Petersburg,
Juneau, Haines and Skagway and
found everything in good condition
so far as the conduct of the offices
are concerned. The sentiment of the
people as expressed to him was also
very favorable as to tie conduct of
the different stations. The men In
charge were giving good satisfaction
both to the public and to the service.
The Major on his tour of inspection
will touch at Egbert, Circle, Gibbon,
Fairbanks, Nulato, St. Michaels and
Nome. He will also Inspect such oth
er stations that can bii reached with

RIGHT NOW
Wm. Canavan, writing to a friend
here in Skagway, is very enthusias
tic about the Seward country to
which be had just arrived after
mushing out of the Idltarod. The
lettei| in, part says:
"I was out on thr McAlplne group
of coal claims and they certainly
have an elegant property, for there
i9 coal everywhere.
"Seward has some excellent prop
erties, both in quartz And placer and
she is bound to develop into the
richest mining camp in Alaska.
"From this place to Susitsa Sta
tion there (s nothing but mince of
placer; and quartz.
"The Parson Syndicate is hero
with a force of men and a big out
fit. They closed a few days ago a
deal for a dredging proposition and |
they have several options on quarta
propositions which they Intend to
close later. They have eighty million
back of them.
"I wish Skagway had a showing
like this place, then we would all i
come back there again."
