SKINNER CONFIDENT
HSS GOOD PROSPECT
IN IM BAY FIELD i
|
Assays sent to the Aiaska Col- i
lege failed to return any indica
tion of platinum in the ore but,
still not satisfied, G. R. Skinner, j
who leaves Seward within a few
days for Nuka Bay to carry for- i
ward development work through- j
out the winter, stated he then
had a second assay made else
where. The result of this deter
mination report was that there;
appeared to be a platinum reac
tion.
Sending ore samples back to
Denver Mr. Skinner asked for a
complete analysis and the check
up returned was to the effect the j
ore did not contain platinum:
however, it was stated, they did
not give the ore a complete anal
isis. The ore ran from $6 to $25
a ton in gold; Mr. Skinner figures
that on an average the ore may
run about $18 a ton.
But Mr. Skinner admits that he
does not know whether he has a
mine or not; surface and present
indications appear so, and will |
continue with his development
work and open it up, as it is im
possible for him or anyone else to
know what is in the ground.
He will be alone on his property :
all winter and in all probability,

Li, IS THE 111"
That Alaska has no jury law ex
cept that which applies by act of j
congress to all federal courts was i
held at Ketchikan by Judge Justin
W. Harding. He said the legislative
act of 1925, prescribing the manner
of drawing juries in Alaska, is void. ]
George B. Grigsby, attorney for j
H. S. Oyamada who is charged with
assault, moved that the case be dis
missed on the ground that the jury
had been illegally drawn and not
in accordance with the statute.
The court took the matter under
adviseme-nt for some 30 minutes
and then denied the motion, stat
ing that he believed the law passed
by the legislature of Alaska with
reference to juries is unconstitu- j
tional in that, in his opinion, con
gress in the enabling act, the con
stitution of the Territory, did not
empower the legislature to enact
such legislation.

MR. HAIVKSLEY SURPRISED AT
HIS OWN ASTONISHMENT
Mr. John Hawsley, Indian agent,
was surprised at his own astonish
ment on reading in Dawson’s Sat
urday’s News that he had delivered
a talk on the origin of the natives
of the Yukon at the dance which
wound up the Discovery Day cele
bration. He was under the impres
sion that he was giving a history
of the formation and activities of
the Yukon Order of Pioneers. On
comparing notes with the reporter
the editor of the News has conclud
ed that Mr. Ilawksley was correct.
The Nome U. S. Marshal’s office
was informed that the dead body of
a Mr. Anderson was discovered in
his cabin on Quartz Creek, between
Cripple and Sinrock rivers. The
Nugget was not able to find out
what Anderson it was, except that
he is a rather old man who has
lived in that section many years
and very seldom came to Nome.
The funeral of Dave Vadel who
lied at Wrangell of pulmonary tu
oerculosis, chronic endocarditis
and gall bladder disease, was held
recently.
