! HI M]LFS OVER SNOW
A man to be admired is Jim
Henrickson who, during the latter
part of March and the forepart of
April, saved the life of Frank Chea
tem.
Henrickson snaked Cheatem,
down with scurvy, 200 miles to the
Dillingham hospital with the aid of
vwQ clegs. Jim was almost dead on
his feet when he staggered into
Dillingham with Cheatem but a
two-day rest sufficed after which
he struck out for home.
Cheatem's wife had previously
passed away; what from is now
known, though it is not thought
from the dread disease which al
most got Cheatem had it not been
for the heroic Henrickson.
J. C. LOWE CALLED
J. C. Lowe, well known business
man of the Dillingham district,
passed away on May 31, according
to a telegram recently received
here. Mr. Lowe had been ill for
! seme time but it was not known
it was of such a serious nature.
His many friends here were shock
ed upon receiving the report. Mrs.
Lowe was at the bedside of hus
band when death came.

BETTER TH FIR
Thirty-one years ago Frank R.
Brown opened up the once famous
quartz mines in the Territory, the
Apollo and the Sitka, near Unga.
From these prospects from three to
four ‘millions of dollars were taken.
The ore vein in the Apollo was lost
and the Sitka became flooded; in
the latter hundreds of thousands
jof dollars of ore had been blocked
out
Two years ago Mr. Brown, who j
has remained almost permanently
in that vicinity, has kept up the
quest for the lost vein and when,
last fall announcement was made
by A. H. Bradford, who is now asso
ciated with him, that he believed
the vein had been picked up on
Popoff Island, an adjoning island,
interest has ran high among min
ing men as well as to the residents
out that way for a revival of the
quartz mining industry there
means everything to the country.
Aside from his cannery interests,
Mr. Bradford, who is perhaps one
of the best known of Westward
men, is a graduate engineer. In his
statements to the press to date, and
especially to the Gateway, which
first published his first interview,
Mr. Bradford has been very careful
in cautioning against extravagant
j and misleading statements and in
i his recent interview with a repre
j sentative of this paper two weeks
! ago, at False Pass, he was as con
! servative as he was a year ago, with
■ the exception that, due to an assay
: made some months ago. the propo
sition looks better than ever.
I The Apollo and the Sitka mines
: are situated about one-quarter of
: a mile from each other and were,
: when in operation, connected with
5":
u
E tremendous one. must be scrapped
: and entirely new machinery and
5 equipment installed before opera
tions can recommence. The part
* ners have a lease on them.
E' From the Popoff Island prospect
test assay was made of approxi
i .mately five tons of ore by the Fed
eral Mining & Smelting Co., of Kel
logue, Idaho. The report was that
it was the best separation ore they
had ever seen; that there is almost
a complete separation from the
! various sulphides from the ore by
flotation. It is base ore carrying
lead and zinc in equal quantities
: and some copper; and about $10
| in gold values.
i | Seven men were engaged at work
I on the Popoff vein until Thanks
- giving and it was at that time when
! the five-ton sample was shipped to
Idaho. Since then there has been
four men employed steadily drift
ing on one vein; they are in about
150 feet. The tunnel mouth is some
‘ 20 feet above sea level and the out
I crop is right on the beach. The
I Sitka shaft is down 300 feet but
_ flooded; this. Mr. Bradford said,
[ would be pumped out this summer.
* If favorable results are obtained
i this summer it is the intention of
J the owners to augment the pres
■ ent crew next winter and install
» power drills.

cycle championship of the Yukon j

between Dawson and Bonanza, on !
July 1; distance. 14.2 miles; time i

An Independent Feeling
No matter what their income, every young couple should
have a bank accont.
It is more than a reserve to meet unexpected expenses.
It is more than a means of obtaining more comforts*
and conveniences.
A bank account and a regular method of saving create,
a feeling of independence, a feeling of self-respect.
.Money is not everything, but the lack of sufficient funds
often brings unhappiness. Do not let your life be threat
ened bv financial worries.
