ALASKA EXPECTS
BOOM COITIONS
IN COLD DISTRICT
NEW DISCOVERIES IN VIRGIN
AREAS BELIEVED FORETELL
ANOTHER GOLD RUSH
Judged by new discoveries in
hitherto unprospected placer reg
ions and others where the areas of
older zones have extended, some
thing akin to a boom will strike
Alaska with the opening up of op
erations in the spring.
Among the most recent and im
portant finds is that made by Matt
Hamburger and Joe Kroskey in the
Fairview Mountain region, approxi
mately 70 miles west of the Alaska
Railroad at Mile 128. A number of
holes sunk last fall revealed an av
erage value of $2.70 per yard in
ground ranging from three to six
feet in depth. Sufficient holes
were bedrocked to block out op
proximately $60,000 in pay.
To Install Hydraulic
Hamburger and Kroskey are tak
! ing a hydraulic outfit in over the
! snow and will take out a ditch and
get set up for operations by mid
summer.
The pay is found in foreign wash
which covers a wide area of terri
tory, and which is cut by a number
of creeks, all of which show values
of sufficient richness to pay to
work by hand or hydraulic method.
In addition to roadways for 50
miles of the distance from the rail
road, the region is reached via the
Susitna and Yentna rivers, from
the head of Cook Inlet, which per
mit shallow draft boats to pene
trate a distance of 130 miles into
the Yentna valley, while boats car
rying several tons may be taken to
the mouth of the Clearwater river, j
connecting with trail into the Fair- |
view region a distance of 15 miles.
Although gold has been known
to exist in the region for a number
of years, practically little prospect
ing has been done, especially on
the larger creeks of which there
are five ranging from six to 20
miles in length and all cutting the
gravel beds.
Other Strikes Made
In addition to Hamburger and
Kroskey, Matt Hugger, prospecting
on Mills Creek, has opened pay and
C. J. Lincke, who owns Cotton
wood Creek, last summer discover
ed pay in one bedrock drain which
ranges slightly above that of Ham
burger’s strike.
All will prosecute development
work next summer.
Additional development in Cache
Creek, which has produced many
millions of dollars, has opened new
pay streaks and many prospectors
are entering that field in the spring.
Valdez Creek, another old region,
is undergoing a more extensive
search with the result that more
areas carrying pay have been dis
covered.
Holmgren and associates, who
have been operating on Crow Creek,
some 78 miles north of Seward,
have struck bigger and better pay
than for years, and Holmgren an
nounces at the close of operations
last fall that he expected to clean
up in the neighborhood of $75,000,
000 next season.
Discovery that gold-bearing grav
els extend well up the Yentna, Ke
chatna, Squentna and Nokoshna
rivers is attracting considerable at
tention and many outfits will go
into the region next summer when
it will be possible to reach the most
remote precincts by_outboard mo
tor and river boat. Fred Gagnon,
trapping on the Equentna, reports
many evidences of gold, and at one
place has recovered nuggets valued
at 25 cents each. During the sum
mer he will prospect a creek enter
ing the Squentna and which prom
ises to return pay.
WHAT’S THIS?
ALIQUIPPA, Pa., Mar. 30.—An
aged gypsy woman undertook to
cure Nicholas Ceccarelli’s headache
by playing for him on his banjo, he
reported to police today. Under the
spell of the tunes, Ceccarelli fell
asleep; when he awoke, the wo
man, his banjo and $78 were miss
ing. He claimed his head ached
worse than ever.
The Elim correspondent of the
Nome Nugget reports that radio
reception there is still good with
programs coming in from New
York City, Montreal, Chicago, Lon
don, Buenos Aires, many other sta
tions in the States and also pro
grams from New Zealand and Ha
waii. KFQD is heard every night.
