last report being that it went *7 to the
foot. The exact figures wore not ob
tainable hut it is reported that the
cleanup figured arouud *8000, bringing
the total cleanups from Mading's
ground this season to something over
*40,000. Madiug is working toward
what is believ d to be even richer dirt,
and some banner cleanups will be re
ported from there.
At the same time George Riley on
1-A Otter is haring a pleasant time dig
ging into dirt that begins to look like
the $3 article. He will have a cleanup
about the first of the month, after a
ten-day run, and expects to draw down
at least *15,000 or as much as that
taken in during the first long run.
Those new-fangled sanitary, conveni
ent and odorless water closets made at
the Pioneer Sheet Metal Works are

Valuable Asset
Fred Carter received an express
package from the N. C. C’o. in this city
Friday, finding the express charges
prepaid. Before sending it to ;his
home on the creeks he decided to open
it and was immensely pleased to find
therein 5000 Orr campaign buttons.
Being a good Wickersham man, and
believing they arrived in the nick of
of time, he gave them back to the com
pany. _
Willow street residents near the

DOES ANYONE KNOW
WHERE IS J. E, CLARK?
Inquiring for hor brother, James F-.
Clark, from whom the family has not
heard for the past three years, Miss L
L. Clark, of 159 Effie street, Fresno,
Cal., writes to the postmaster here in
the hope that some trace may be found
of the missing relative.
According to the letter, Mr. Clark
came to Alaska five years ago from Ok
lahoma. For three years they have
heard no trace of him except a rumor
that he was on Knight’s island, in Yak
utat bay, southeastern Alaska, but
l thought it possible that he had joined
the stampede to this section.
Anyone possessing knowledge of this
person will confer a great favor by
sending word to the family at the ad
dress given.

Half the Limit
Although a verdict recommend
ing- extreme mercy was returned
by the jury iu the case of United
States vs. George Smith and Jack
Smith, charged with assault and
battery upon the person of William
Ainsley, who was beaten in his
store on Wednesday morning dur
ing the process of the removal of
the building into the street, Judge
Mal'.by gave the convicted men a
scathing arraignment in pronounc
ing judgment upon them and
wound up by imposing a jail sen
tence of three mouths and a fine of
$200 and ccsts. Following this an
appeal was taken by the attorneys
or the defense and the bond fixed
iii the sum of $2 500 each, the
bonds being furnished shortly after
ward.
i lie evidence was to the effect
ihat the men hail been drinking
preceding the fracas, and Mr.
Ainsley'* testimony taken with his
appearance was sufficient to con
vince the jury that there had been
an assault.
The jury remained out most of
Friday afternoon and it was ru
mored that they stood m for con
viction during this time. They
finally reached a verdict by recoin
mending mercy to the court.
Dod Stewart Losing Health
Believing himself afflicted with dia
betis and considering it necessary to
go Outside, “Dod" Stewart, Fairbanks
manager for the Pacific Cold Storage
company is now negotiating for the
sale of his interest in the Wildcat as
sociation on Flat creak and has already
received an offer of a tidy homestake
for his one-sixth which he and John
Holmgren purchased from Hall last
spring.
Some of the owners are after this in
terest and outside parties are trying to
get in, all of which has tended to some
bidding for this valuable ground.
