!ANCHORAGEITES ARE
: STAMPEDING TO HYDER
A number of Anchorage men who
i stampeded to the Portland canal dis
trict have joined in locating a group
1 of lode claims on Texas creek, a tri
butary of the Salmon river, on the
American side of the boundary line.
1 Assays from samples of the quartz
found on the surface give as high as
$48 per ton in gold and better than
a hundred dollars in silver. The lo
cators found the prospect too late to
do any work last year, but will start
development when the snow goes off
|in the spring. Among the locators are
i .Tack Sutherland. Capt. Max Nelson,
. Billie Nevell. George Foy, F. E.
I Kruse, Thomas Harrington and
I Blondy Charlton. Knowledge of the
prospect was gained from an Indian
L packer, who has lived in the country
for a long time. The boys treated
him right by locating him in on the
group.
The coming religious cult and one
' that will attract about 99.98 per cent
of the population to its banners, is
1 one that preaches a special hell for
1 food profiteers.
If you have a sense of humor that
; , never fails, you’re wealthy and don’t
-1 know it.
