place here today, with a large num- 1
ber ot ousiders In tthe city who came ]
here for the purpose of investing in

off briskly with lots going at a muc

two hundred lots sold at this time.

Mr. John M. Rudd, of Nanaimo. I
came up on the May this morning !
and is staying over In Skagway for s
a day before continuing his Joumej j
to l>awson. Mr. Rudd is Grand j
Master of the Masonic order for j
British Columbia. He advises ua
? hat there will be a shortage of coal J
from the mines at Nanaimo, and th?'
persons who are wise will take ad [
vantage of the present prices to lay j
in their winter's supply.
The funeral of Joe I)osc alio took j
place this morning at ten o'clock
A short service was conducted lit th i
Ichurch by Fr. Turnell, after which
the casket was carried to the train

the last sad rites were performed.
The friends of the dead man had
brought a profusion of flowers whlc j
more than covered the casket and
were placed on his grave Joe was
a happy, good natured man in this
life, and will be missed around hid |
favorite haunts and among his fel- 1
low workers.

Thousand* of gold seekers who
Joined In the mad rush to the Klon
dike hurried over ground contain
ing that very treasure which they
expected to find at the end of their
journey Many of these gold seek
er*. Indeed, must have passed in
sight of the quarts vein near the
V ii.Sv Ul.vier which 12 years later
was developed Into what is now
known as the Cliff mine This vein
iias been averaging about $50 a
:-.?n, mostly In free gold with little
change in depth, the concentrates
running about seven per cent and
carrying about $100 vrorth of gold
to the ton Thi* i* probably a fair
measure of the gold content of the
ore* of the district, though many
property owners report contents
ranging from $75 to $200, or even
higher The Cliff mine became pro
ductive in 1>10 and proved to be
very profitable Tt* success greatly
stimulates prospecting by local min
er* and also attracted the attention
of nonresident*, who quickly reoog
n;*ed the possibility of developing
here a new mining district. As a
result, several hundred lode claim*
were staked and considerable devel
opment work was undertaken In
, 1*10 and 1S11.
The most encouraging feature of
the district Is the fact that one lode
ha* been profitably mined to a
depth of about 400 feet and for
about " f?*H along the strike So
far as can be seen, there are no
geologic conditions at the Cliff mine
which rre not found elsewhere In
the region Although, as In all
mining camps, much the larger num
her of the claims staked give little
promise of developing into mines
ye? a number show results that ful
ly Justify farther exploitation. The
facts at hand Indicate that It will be
a distrii t of small, rk h veins rather
than of large low-grade deposits
Some larger deposits cf low grade
ore which wore not visited are. how

south side of the bay
