MONARCH MILLING GOLD—CROW
CREEK PLACER HAS NEW
PAY STREAK
The Girdwood raining district looks
better for the coming season than it
has for years, according to E. Ayres,
who is visiting in Seward. “The Mon
arch Mines company, which is a
quartz prospect,.is unexcelled in Alas
ka, in my opinion,” says Mr. Ayres.
Last fall the last 22 shifts run with a
one 500-lb. stamp, took out 94 ounces
in gold. Clyde Brenner, William Mur
ray and Harry I. Staser are the prin
cipal stockholders, Staser being presi
dent of the company.
“The Crow Creek placer group op
V
erated by John Holmgren and Ernie
Erickson, looks good for the coming
season. During the last season they
opened up a new channel on the bench
about 100 feet above the present
creek bed, which shows better pay
than the old creek had.
“Henry Bamberger located some
quartz at the head of Crow creek late
last fall which showfe considerable
free gold. In all, I predict a very
busy season.”
Mrs. Chris Eckmann, wife of the
Mayor of Anchorage, will be among
those arriving tomorrow, it is report
ed, en route to the States.
James Kennedy, member of the
Kenedy Brothers' clothing store at
Anchorage, will arrive in Seward to
morrow en route to Seattle on the S.
S. Alameda.
