It is proposed to issue a circular con
tainiosj the two splendid articles writ
ten bv Mr- Frank J. Cotter concerning
AW
the NelcUiua gold diggings, lhe first i
of these articles deals with the gold j
discovery, the creeks upon which j
coarse gold lias been found, toe forma- j
tion, etc. The other tells of trail con-1
ditions, etc The two combined make j
the best information which has been j
gained about the new camp, destined, :
in the opinion of many, to oe one of i
the greatest ever found in Alaska, j
The information as to the diggings is
tirst hand, reduced to writing by a
trained observer and iaciie newspaper,
writer. The story of trail conditions
is from actual experience, Mr. Cot ter j
having just returned from there.
That the Seward-Knik route to the
Nelchina is the l e»t and most feasible j
is evidenced by the fact that stamped-,
ei*s from both Cor dova and Valdez are i
on board the Sampson, enroute to the
camp. _
Deputy lr. S Marshal Harry R. |
Brown passed through on the steamer j
Admiral Sampson, enroute to Knik, '
wheae he will relieve Deputy Marshal
J. B. Dyer. Mar shal Brown is a young j
man of sterling worth and good ability,
lie is the son of District Judge Fred!
M. Brown. The retiring deputy wiilj
go to the Nelchina district, where he j
lias mining interests.
Deputy U. S. Marshal William Furs-1
man pus>ed through on tne Admiral
Sampson, enroute to the Bristol bay j
country. H i will land at Iliamna aid J
mush overljfnd. Deputy Fursman is a
prince of good fellows. He relieves
Marshal J. J. Cavana.
The rumor has been persistent that
the steamer Admiral Sampson would
make another trip this fall to Knik
anchorage. B. F. \\ atsnn, general
agent of the operating company, who
is in town, assures the Gateway that
this is not the fact; that the present;
vovage is the last this year.

American rail
roads are the fastest
and safest in the world.
• The American trainman
counts his time in seconds.
Foreign railroad men carry no
such watch as the HOWARD.
Official inspection of railroad
watches exists in no other country.
HOWARD Railroad Watches(/erer
setting) arc officially certified and adopted
by the time inspectors of one hundred and
forty of the leading railroads of America.
Better than that, their daily performance
is finer, more accurate than the most exact
I ing railroad requirements.
I The balance-wheel of the HOWARD
{V Watch is made of special hard-tempered
steel—will not knock out of true with the
jar and vibration of railroad service.
Every HOWARD is made and ad
justed as a fine watch. Cased and timed
in its own case by the HOWARD watch
makers.
The price of the HOWARD is fixed
—railroad models $50 to ^140—and a
printed price-ticket attached.
We carry this distinctive watch and
would like to show it to you. ^ ^
