c. J. LINKIE TELLS OF LIFE,
ADVENTURES OF GENE
BARTHOLF
Under an Anchorage date line,
C. J. Lincke. one of Alaska's pre
mier newspaper men, has a col
umn and a half story in the Den
ver Mining Record, which is an
absorbing account of the life and
adventures of Gene Bartholf, vet
eran prospector, who is again seek
ing gold on Hidden River and Al
der Creek. In part he says:
Gene Bartholf is on the trail ol
another gold bonanza. To fix Gene’s
status one must revert to the day;
of ’74, when the argonauts were
storming the ramparts of Colora
do’s towering mountains in searct
of the very substance which toda]
sends this grizzled veteran anc
pioneer of Colorado’s mining hi;
tory seventy miles from the Alaska
Railroad.”
Then follows an account of Bar
tholf’s mining adventures in th<
States during which he discovere<
several camps and made minini
history. He was in the Dawsoi
stampede, went Outside and cam'
back again. The story continues
MADE ALASKA DISCOVERY
“He arrived at an old Russiai
trading post called Knik, acros
the arm from what is now the mo
dern little city of Anchorage, hea<
quarters of the Alaska Railroad
and key to an empire of minera
wealth. That same year he pene
trated what is now the Willot
Creek district, a large free-mill
: ing zone, lying some 70 miles nortl
| of Anchorage. There was no Alask;
l Railroad, and the malamute tear
I was the accepted means of trans
iportation. It is different today:
| travels to within 30 miles of th
; camp by railroad and thence b
| automobile truck road to the hear
of the zone.
! “Bartholf staked the first min
iin Willow Creek. With him wer
Bob Hatcher and Carnegie. Tills
! is now the big producer Gold Bul
lion, which has disgorged its mil
lions and is still going strong. For
this discovery they received $400,
; 000. This, together with. $3,300,000,
'was taken from the Gold Eagle
j claims, completing the group. Re
cently the property was re-vended
and a 50-ton mill has just been
completed, with $2,000,000 in ore
reserves awaiting reduction.
MADE LARGE FORTUNE
“Four hundred thousand dollars
to a prospector is that much bur
den. Gene never cared for money,
altlio he has cultured tastes and
is not a “rough-neck.” His cronies
say he was glad when he spent
most of it traveling around, until
