PLACER FIND IN
TOLKAT, 125 MILES
FROM NENANA
FAIRBANKS.—Teddy Gleason an<
H. A. Grant, two prospectors, arrive<
in town recently from the scene of th<
newest placer excitement in the Tan
ana valley, the find made in what ii
known as the Tolkat country, whicl
is contiguous to the Kantishna coun
try. They state that they have noth
ing new to report except that paj
prospects have been found there, al
though none of the prospectors hav«
reached bedrock. There are but verj
few people there at the present time
as the district is a hard one to reach
The scene of the new find, which was
first reported at Nenana by Fret
Houselman, who is said to have taker
$1,000 in gold out during the late fall
is on Moose creejf, which is about 12E
miles from Nenana, according to tht
two recently arrived prospectors.
The shaft sunk by Houselman is
reported to be about 22 feet deep. Bu1
like Gleason and Grant and other
prospectors he did not find bedrock
according to the report.
The shaft sunk by Gleason anti
Grant was put down only 12 feet, but
they are exhibiting a few coarse col
ors which they took out as indisputa
ble evidence that there is gold there
They are of the opinion, however, that
nothing has yet been found which
would warrant a stampede. Thej
had intended to “freeze” the hole down
through the thawed ground which un
derlies the surface and which pre
vents the sinking of shafts to bedrock
by ordinary means, but their grub ran
out and they had to come in for an
outfit. They will stairt back with
their outfit within the next day or
two, probably tomorrow.
