OHIZ CLAIMS BEING STAKED
DAWSON, Aug. 1? Klondike never
saw such prosperity in its quart* pro
perties as today. The quartz record
ing office has been so crowded of
late with applications, -renewals
and the like that an extra clerk has
teen put on to assist Ben Brown,
the quartz recorder.
Last month 110 quartz claims were
located, and this month nearly 1.10
have been applied for to date.
Each quartz claim is 1T>00 feet
square. Taking this area ISO times
one will see that the quartz proper
ties located during the present month
? ill cover an immense area.
Ono beauty about the quarts act
t.lty is that the new staking is not
confined to any ono locality. The
boom is on in every part of the dis
trict, from Twelve-mile to Sixty-mile,
from the high ridge dividing camp to
points along the Yukon, from Dawson
to Whitehorso: ; in fact, everywhere
throughout the territory.
Harold G. Beddeson, manager of th
sales department of Kelly. Douglas
and Co. of Vaneouver. arrived from ,
Atlin yesterday and will sail south i
on the Princess Royal. Mr. Beddeson i
who has travelled north for years,
states that everybody is busy at At
lin and the indications are that the
town will have a permanent future.
