CU MANAGER
THAU IK FEW DATS!
NEW YORK. June 30. —A few;
days hence, a man by the name of j
William F. Carey, is going to walk!
out of Madison Square Garden and
is not coming back, granting that
the Garden will feel free when the
time comes to accept the implied j
rebuke.
They say he is an honest man
and this must be so, because when
he became president and general
manager after Tex Rickard’s death
he was a millionaire, living at the
rate of $200,000 a year. Today he
is broke.

Home office at Anchorage, Alaska
(Continued from Faye Om)
years ago and from which en
tanglement he is just now be
coming unsnarled. The nuggets
from the ground are exceptionally
large.
On Gulch Creek, Roger and Hol
lingsworth, hoped to be ready to
begin sluicing operations this week.
Three other men, Tony Lanning,
from Oregon; Dick Swartz, from
Arizona; and Mr. Skinner, from
Texas, also are working. They made
a satisfactory cleanup last week.
The newest of mining properties
recently opened up is the Claudia
Faye, on the east fork of Gulch
Creek, the claim having been stak
ed a few days ago by Mrs. Glenn
Rogers, the only woman mining
“man” in the Pass country. Mrs.
Rogers, and daughter Claudia Faye,
have their own sluice box and
are putting in a lot of time.
There are numerous other pro
spects thruout the Moose Pass
Sunrise and Hope district as well
as scores of prospectors roaming
the hills. A conservative estimate of
the number of people now in the
area is 200, almost a 100 per
cent increase over a year ago.
This revival of mining at Sew
ard’s back door not only means
much to this city but to the Ter
ritory’s gold export. For the poor
man, or the man with capital, it;
is doubtful if in all Alaska a more
fertile gold field exists. Hundreds
of thousands of dollars in gold
have been recovered in the past.
Millions will be forthcoming in the
future, judging from the present
stimulating impetus in quartz and
placer gold mining in the Moose
Pa.ss mining district.
PRISONERS RECAPTURED
Means and Fernandez, who es
caped from the Anchorage jail on
June 9, after being sentenced to
a term at McNeil’s Island, were re
captured yesterday four miles out
of Nenana, according to advices .
from the Interior. The men had
been seen traveling North a few
days previously and Marshal Carl
son at Fairbanks was notified. He
immediately sent Deputy Marshal
Miller and another man down to
Nenana where they met the two
men.
The U. S. L. H. S. Cedar, Capt.
Leadbetter, -which arrived in Sew
ard yesterday morning from Ket
chikan will remain in Seward over
the Fourth then continue on to
the Westward.
Bert Sparrow left on the train
today for the Interior with a
party from Texas.
Martin Hansen, of Cordova, who
recently became interested in the
Moose Pass district placer fields,
returned from Cordova on the Yu
kon and left today for the Pass.
