NEW FIND IN
TANANA VALLEY
Toddy Gleason and H. A. Bryant
two prospectors, arrived in town yes
lerday afternoon from the scene ot
the newest placer excitement in the
Tunana valley, the lind made in what
is known as the Toklat country, which
is contiguous to the kantishna coun
try. They state that they have noth
ing new to .eport except that pay
prospects have been found there, al
though none of the prospectors have
reached bedrock. There are but very
lew people there at the present time
as the district is a hard one to reach.
The scene ol the new lind, which was
lust reported at Nenana by Fred
Itouselman, who is said to have taken
^i.O(K) in gold out during the late fall,
ic* on Moose creek, which is about 12b
miles from Nenana, according to the
two recently arrived prospectors.
The shaft sunk by Housolman i."
reported to be about twenty-two feet
deep. But, like Gleason and Grant
and other prospectors, he did not lind
bedrock, according to the report. The
shaft sunk by Gleason and Grant was
put down only twelve feet, but they
are exhibiting a few coarse colors,
which they took out as indisputable
evidence that there is gold there.
They are of the opinion, however, that
nothing has yet been found which
would warrant a stampede. They hail
intended to “freeze” the hole down
through the thawed ground which un
derlies the surface and which pre
vent the sinking of shafts to bed
rock by ordinary means, but their
grub gave out and they had to come
in for an outfit. They will start back
with their outfits within the next day
► or two, probably tomorrow.—Alaska

Homestead.
A tract in Woodrow is equivalent to more than 12 lots
in Seward.
