NEW COLD FIELDS
IN FSB NORTH
SEATTLE, Wash., July 19, (hi
stories of a rich new placer strike
on the banks of the South Fork of
the Iskut, “the River of Death,”
known thruout the gold fields of
the north as the “Hoodoo” or
“Ghost” river because of the great
toll of life it has extracted from
Indians, gold seekers and trappers,
has reached Seattle from Wrangell
The Indians who made the strike
have sought to keep the discovery
a secret. Walter Julian, one of
the oldtime trappers and prospec
tors, reported at Wrangell upon
his arrival there from the new
district, that a stampede has
started from Telegraph Creek to
the new diggings.
The Indians were traveling
down the South Fork, according
to Julian, when they came to a
new slide on the banks. Investi
gation showed heavily loaded
* gravel, course gold being found.
The Indians panned out two
ounces, and at Telegraph Creek
told their friends- More than two
score Indians silently stampeded
to the new fields and filed locat
ion before the rush began..

I DALLAS, July 20, (/P)—Dallas
:sees an industrial renaissance in ;
the reclamation of 10,000 acres of |
land near the geographical heart j
of the city.
It is costing $11,000 an acre to
reclaim that area in the Trinity
river bottoms, where floods have
forbidden industrial expansion. En- |
gineers estimate that $25,000,000 i
will be spent in improvements with
in five years after this project is
completed.
Until $11,000,000 in bonds was
voted to reclaim the Trinity’s basin ,
Dallas industry had been forced to
stop at its edge.

Thunderstorms in the afternoons
seem to becoming a habit in a

has been visited with these storms
several afternoons. Oldtimers say
it is unusal and some profess not
to like it.
Mayo is a thriving community, ;
it is reported, and the mines are j
shipping lots of ore- There are I
hundreds of tons piled on the
