quarters in Camp.
Information has been received
from Knik by private letter that
an effort is being made there to
have the new diggings at the
headwaters of the Tazlina and
Nelchina rivers taken from the
Knik recording district and a
new one created which would em
brace a portion of the Copper
Center district as well. The pe
tition was being numerously
signed and asked that a recorder
for the new camp be located at
Coulter.
The order talking the district
where the diggings have been
found from the Copper Center
and placing them in the Knik
district was signed last March
by Judge Overfield. The order
defines the boundaries of th4
Copper Center district as fid

Hydrant Juice.
I’ve tried a thousand fancy

thirst away, and some were mix
ed in Iwenly winks, and some re—
iiuirdd half a day: I've taken
drinks frnm Asp inwall In Mrnken
linw, and u11 In Nome; and some
wore served in llagons I all I rum
which I blithely blew the fuani:
I've drunk where healing springs
abound, ami swallowed stuff that
made me jump: and nothing heU
|,er have I found Ilian water from
l!u> village pump. The ’ soda
fountain is a. peauli .when a man
in summer starts to broil, when
■he’s so ,dry his innards scr.eech
like windmills. thaL are needing
oil; the .fouptaiu in the comer
store was once my Cav’rile ,daily
haunt; and this I noticed o’er and
o’er—the more I drank .the more
I’d want. My wife grew tired of
was hing, duds, to raise the money
for; my It/./,, and said, “You’ll
drink siyyc cheaper ,suds, as sure
as my first, name is id/..” De
prived Lhen of the revenue which
long had kept me from the dump,
I shunned the soda fount and
drew my solace from the village
pump. And now I’m boosting
Adam’s ale in seven languages
and more; the. ohtt* drink that
costs no kale, and leaves you bet
ter than before. I argue strong
ly that the man who doesn’t hit
it is a chump, and as 1 talk I swig

Glass Window Suffer.
Passengers on the Alameda,
which arrived from Cordova yes
terday, state that the railload
town had been visited by a wind
and rain storm which came near
putting the place out of com
mission. Many of the big plate
glass windows wore broken and
the rains had washed out the
streets in places. The telephone
and electrict light lines had also
suffered and the town was in
darkness. The power line was i
carried down the mountainside1
by a landslide hut was expected
to he repaired in a short time, i
So great was the velocity of
the wind that the steamer had
difficulty in making a landing
and gelling oul of the harbor.
The Sampson, which is on her
way south, was Lucking a head
wind and was making about four
miles per hour when passed by
the Alameda.
TO THE PUBLIC.
I am going ‘to organize "The
(iranile Mining Company'’ l.o
take over what is known as I lie
Taliim property at Poll Wells.
Capital stock will bd $500,000.0(1,
par value of $1.00 per sluice,
fully paid and non-assessalde;
300,000 shares will he placed in
the treasury; 50,000 shares of
this will he offered at 25c per
share.
What have we lo offer? We
have $300,000.00 worth of devel
oped ore in ‘sight; in other words,
we have 2,000 tons of ore in one
vein and 500 toil's in another
above the tunnel and solid ore
the entire length of the tunnel
125 feel. l''rom oil assays ob
tained this ore should average
$100.00 peli- ton, mill run. The
vein is from ten inches to two
feet wide, lying in the graywacke
in the granite contact. The work
ings are at an elevation of 470
feet and I he mountain rising one
in two above the workings. It is
2,(KM) feel, from tidewater; lim
ber sull'ictieiil for all (purpo'ses
for all limes. Willi a .'t.noo fool
pipe line. 100 font fall can be ob
lained for water jiower which
will lie good I he year round.
Transmission line will be 1,000
feel. II can be worked miirli
cheaper Ilian the (Mill' mine on
account of the advantages of the
limber and water power. On an
average it is twice as large as I In*
(dill' and fully as rich. The prop
erty originially cost $50,000.00.
We have two years to pay for il.
I propose to install a mill im
mediately using gasoline power
for the preliminary, developing
willi -water power nexl season.
This can be made a home con
cern as well as not; $15,000 will!
put it on a milling basis, and
therefore be a paying mine, at
once. Development work so far
consists of 500 feet of flannel
worn lapping one vein from 100
lo 150 feel deep, the end of I he
funnel now following the vein
on Ibis dip 150 feel underground.
I invilt* everybody lo c«mu* in anti
11111 this property un its feet as a
Innnt* affair. So far the money
lias been pul up by three people,
$8,000.00, ami il was not slocked
or any offers of sloek made un
til we had a property.
Seal and stock Jbook ordered
on this boat. Receipts will be
given for money pa,i,d in anil stock
issued when the book and seal
arrives.
. I want lo raise $5,0,00 quickly,
and if ypu desire to conn* iti dp
so at once,
The contractors ftre wiHii,ig Ip

who petyuilt the Cliff mill, is will

A mining deal was coinsum
mated yesterday whereby the
property recently located by

The property has been takqn.
,over by Mr. B. C. Wiltse, of Port
land, Oregon, who has spent sev
eral weeks in the Port Wells dis
trict looking over the properties
there. The property he has tak
en over has a tine mineral show
ing and possesses many advan

'their ores. It is located on tide
water and parts of the ground is
covered with limber suitable for
sawings, from which lumber can
bo cut for the mill and other pur
poses.
Mr. Will so will leave on the
next steamer fo • bis bone, but

be a big proposition.
Mr. A. A. Taubernek will have
charge of the development work.
