NEW STRIKE
NoYikafeat River Becomes
Prospectors' Mecca
A strike on the Novikakat river is
attracting attention in the interior.
Many people have gone there from Ram
part and Tanana and even from Fair
banks. The river flows into the Yukon
from the south some distance below the
mouth of the Tanana. It heads in the
district where the Kantishna and Kus
kokwim have their sources.
Recent arrivals from tke interior
have great faith in the results of the
Novikakat strike. It is thought it will
lead to the opening of a producing
country of great richness.
SEWARD DINES
ON DIG GAME
A recent Seward dispacth says:
"Seward eats as much moose, venison
and mountain sheep as it does beef
these clays. The flesh of all these ani
mals is in prime condition and is much
relished. Tt is usually tenderer than
the beef which comes to Alaska, and
ihe waiters at local 'hash foundries'
take great pride in offering it to cus
tomers."

DOXESRODDED
The sluice boxes of Messrs. Lambert
and Cairnes, on Sprue- creek, Atlin dis
trict, were robbed of the gold dust of
three days' sluicing last week. Toe
