PICTURE ROCK AGAIN

If the same jewelry qwaiftz which was brought into
Seward from Nuka Bay yesterday by. Tom Babcock to- j
gether with the 25- pounds of gold that he had with him
could have been shown in Nevada there would be stam
pede overnight. The stuff is so rich thak it fairly spark
les with gold and it is pleasing to note that there is three
feet of it on the Babcock & Downey ground in this min
ing district of the Kenai peninsula. 1, '
Babcock had the cleanup that had been taken from i
the little ball mill which they have been running on their i
ground, since they ran into the high-grade on June 18. He ,
estimates that there is $7,000 worth of ore on the dump j
and with the three veins on the property now stripped !
along the surface, it will be necessary to put in a larger
stamp mill and a concentrator.
The Babcock-Downey showing is one of the most
significant that has come to light in this part of Alaska
for several years. Coupled with other finds that are be
ing made by other miners in the district, the conviction
is forced home that the camp 80 miles South of Seward
now gives promise of being one of the leading mining
districts of the Territory, justifying the faith and
patience of the men who have been putting in their time
and money there for several years past.
Among the beauties of the district, which seems to
be an ideal one and of such conformation as to promise
deep-seated ore hoodies, are the timber and water power
that are available right on the ground. Deep snows are a j
drawback but with deeper workings this difficulty will
be minimized, and it is possible that some central point
may be selected by a cooperative movement among the
prospectors where a custom mill might be erected to han
dle the ores from the various properties.
Mrs Brooks-Aten of New York offers $6,000 for a
new national anthem. Well, that “land of the free” line is
rather out of date.
