GRADE COPPER
That Will Clajson, with bla family,
will go south on tha next trip of the
Jefferson has bi-an announced, bat the
immediate business wblch will carry
him to Butte, Moot., has been only a
ba I open secret. Mr. Clayson, together
with hie associates. A. C Gould and E.
F. Pittmau, are the owners of the
Featherbed group of copper locations
which lie ou t:>e shore of Resurrection
bay . not more than twelv e miles from
the city of Sewatd. They come by the
properly by right of having staked
them. The samples of ore taken from
the surface croppings and which Mr.
Clay. oa has oa view at bis store, and
whic i he w .U take with him for the
as ouish i ent of the men at 3utte who
kcow copper, Indicate a really great
pro,x>;: n. He has had several
a$sa>3 running a.l all the way from 15
per cent, to 2. 7 per cent, copper. The
rock i- a 1 heav ly mineraliied Mr.
CNysoa eoe* to Butte to meet several
parties who are interested and will
there d-termme his course? wnether
to se 1 outright or to form a company
for development.
A po:at of interest, of course, Is as to
how Mr, Cliyson, a merchant, sho:ld
have gone locating mining property and
especially how he made auch a success
of It at the flrst attempt. The answer
is Interesting loo. Claysoo, as is
Icoowo, hu a br<nah store at Seward
tie was given a tip whi'e there las'.
.&st summer about the p>ssibilities o'
certain hills on the shore line. He
engaged his informant 10 guide him to
the plaoa but the party broke faith.
Claysoo took into his oonfidence the
men who are named here as his associ
ates and together the/ took a bo?t and
went down the bay on their own ac
count As they sailed away the man
who should hare led them, but didn't,
chsraotjrlxad them, for the benefit of
the crowd oo the dock, as a lot of
"featherbed miners." So when, after a
week of haz irdous scrambling over the
hilis, the party returned not only with
the stakes ia the ground but with
samples of ore to make the eyes of any
prospector water, they recorded the
claims as the "Featherbed group."
Mr. Claysoa has purchased and put
in shape a 26-foot boat with which he
proposes to cruise to the scene of the
location next spring.

winter time ana wcro
always itchy, and I
could not keep from
scratching them. I
had to keep both
hands bandaged all
the time, and at night
I would have to
scratch through tho
bandages as tho Etch
ing was so severe, and
at times I would have
to tear everything off
my hands to scratch
the skin. I could not
' rest or sleep. I had
several physicians
treat me but they
could not give me a
permanent cure, nor
even could thev stop
the itching, After
using the Cuticura
Soap, one box Cuti

two bottles Cuticura
Riwmlvpnfc for about
