located by their friends and co-wor*eis,
Dan Sullivan. Mike Cas.-in, Dan Cree

Donnel. the last two named beinf con
nected with ibe Northwest mounted
police. These about complete the camp,
owning the Wodi. claims that were se
cured by M. Thomson for his company.
The Rainy Hcllow crowd has labored
hard and earnestly since '.he >; -covery
of the district in developing it and
bringini it to the attention of men with
capital. Often they have worked under
adverse conditions and with hard luck.
In fact, they have put up. uncomplain
ingly, with the hardships ami tryir.^'
experiences which seem to follow the
poor prospector wherever be go?s.
But they persevered with '.ha: per
severance and grit that has made A
ka what is? the kind that makes for
success wherever it is displayed.
Year after the Rainy Hollow lvu>
started out in the winter with ti
Mams, over ice and snow, break'tig
trails. For 30 to +?"> da>> .they wot 1
labor at the hardest of hard man-killing
toil, masing camp wherever storm
overtook them, and remaining until
they could move on again. It has !*>en
said by all writers of mining life and
mining development that the prospec
tor is entitled to ail he cets. Tne
Rainy Hollow boys have proved the
saying. They will but receive payment
for labor performed and hardships en
dured when they shall have collected
th? hundreds of thousands that have
been agreed upon e> the purcha-e or.ee
of their properties.
DUcrin tion of C? mp
In speaking of the district, one of tlio-e
best acquainted with it said:
"The Rainy Hollow copper belt
covers a lar;.e area, the claims being
1500 feet square. The new Ixjcdon com
pany will liave about ikK) acres .to oper
ate. That will mean many years of
great activity The sulphide lt-ages
can be t.-aced for a distance of three
miles and the work that has been done
on them demonstrates that they will

Tunnels have been driven in nearly all
the principal ledges to depths varying
from 50 to 200 feet, tapping rich ore
every foot of the distance. It can be
safily estimated that the average out
put will beli? per cent, copper. Thi? does
not include the gold and silver. T jto of
the richest copper ledges that have
been struck on the Kennedy and Burn
ham property show immese value in
bornite which runs high in copper
glance. The ledges are 30 feet wide
The work that has b?en done on these
two claims for the past four years
speaks for itself. There are at the
present time about 8000 tons of solid
j ore blocked out and ready for the smel
J ter, not a ton of which will run less
than $400, Nlartinus Thomson, the
representative of one of the biggest
London syndicates and share holder in
the same. says. 'I have made many a
big mining deal for my people but that
of the Ratny Hollow is of the greatest
magnitude owing to tha vast amount of
aapltal to be invested before they can j
get the property started. ' He also says I
that the ore body is so well fdefined and
covers such an area "that if men and J
money can do it the work will be vigor- 1
usly carried out to make it one of the
greatest producers in the world. He
further predicts that you will see the
Chilkat valley a teeming ma^s of in
dustries inside of five years.

"Tht- consumation of this deal which
brines to the north .one of the ltrfest
mining concerns in the world, one that
is operating in Kurope, Africa and
I America, reflects great credit upon
Martin Conway and Jack Kennedy,
b.i>:ne?s men of Skjgway. They hare
kept themselves in touch with the
min'ng world, especially the copper
producing portion of it, for the last
eight years. They had made up their
minds that Alaska has something to
give up and that the* would show that
fact to the world. They have opened
up * channel for capital and more ii
bound to follow io it. They have work
ed hard to bring this deal to a success
fu! issue. They could have sold out on
two invasions at a good profit, but they
adhered steadfastly to their first inten
tion and hare won out. They have
, proved themselves business men of the
? first ca'ibre. They are the kind of men
?needed in Alaska."
