So Said Dr. Keller When Asked for His Opinion of Atlin and Southern Yukon Districts. Dr. I;. S. Keller, who has returned from a two months' visit to White- horse, Atlin, Conrad and Caribou, is greatly impressed with the bright^ ness of tlie outlook of the country at SkagwaVs back door. He says one of the greatest mineral producing countries in the world is being developed in northern British Columbia and southern Yukon territory. "The great placer fields of the ''"'Atlin district,".' said Dr. Keller, "will yield more gold this year than iihey have produced for many years. There are ��� not so many individual miners at work, but the hydraulic companies are ' doing splendidly. The output of a few of them'will be very large. "Atlin "will get better each year tor years and years. ���Then the development of the Windy Arm country and the prospecting that has been done from leanett on the west \o the Engineer mining property o>n the east have disclosed that there is a great quartz belt lying in that country that will soon be adding its millions to the world's riches. "The work that has been done on the Whitehorse copper properties this year has removed the last doubt imoLn the minds of the most skeptical as to- the richness of that section "I never saw a country with a brighter future assured than that - just across on the Canadian side of 'the.mountains, that-.divide the coast country frona the Yukon ' watershed.''"���Skagway Alaskan. Answered. "Will you allow me to ask you a (question?" interrupted a man in the audience. '���Certainly, sir," said the orator. "You have been giving us a lot of figures about emigration,, increase of wealth, the growth of trusts, aud all that/' said the man. "-Let's see what you know about figures yourself. How do you find the greatest common divisor?' * Slowly and deliberately the orator took a drink of water. Then he pointed his finger straight at the cjjuestioner. Lightning flashed from his eyes, and he replied in a voice that made the gas jets quiver;��� ������'Advertise for it, you ignoramus I" The audience cheered aud yelled and stamped, and the wretched man who had asked the question sneaked out of the hall,, a total wreck.���Tit Bits.

Seventy-Jive Foot Shaft.but-no Bed Rock Yot���Staked Ledges oi' Galena.and" Molybdenum. Messrs. T. Hanna,,J. Cartmcl, C. Gilmore and'C. P. Hickman,' wlio since early spring- have been pushing work on their Volcanic " creek placer ground,'suspended operations at lhe beginning of the week on account-of lack of water-lo drive their pump, and have relumed to,Discovery. Their shaft,., which is 3 ft. x 7 ft. inside of timbers, has been sunk to a depth of 75 feel without sinking bedrock. At a- depth of about 50 .feet some. four, feet of'fairly good pay dirt was encountered; hut sinking ���was.continued and the- bottom of the, shaft is now in a stratum of blue clay and'- boulders. Considerable difficulty was' experienced from water, but with the assistance-of a largo- wator-whoel and ai -Cornish pump this- obstacle was-contended with.' Taking into consideration tiie nature-of the ground-being prospected- and- the many obstacles and break-downs met', and overcome, the amount of work, done and depth obtained speaks volumes for the energy and .perseverance of these sturdy prospectors*. Tlie men are naturally a little disappointed at not having struck bedrock but, nothing daunted, and as their present pump is- powerful enough-, to handle the water lo a depth of 100 'feet, they state-that they will renew operations next spring and "find bedrock or bust."' W-c are of-the. opinion tha'ti the former will- be the- condition! most likely to happen. During the season- these men also located and- staked- a number off quartz claims on what is known as Broken Hilt The ledge, which is several feet in width and extends throughout their stakings, contains .a large vein of high grade' galena which'will prove very valuable with development: In the same locality they have staked a vein which oii the surface averages about four feet in-width and carries a high percentage of molybdenum. This mineral, which contains several- by-products and is also used in the manufacturing of large-guns, is fairly rare, has a steady demand for small quantities, and. is at present worth from 20 to ��5 cents per pound.' ,' If-you want bargains that are bargains, call on Stables & Lumsden. oir m ��� ruFHisnings, ��� ��� Blankets, Boots and 'Shoes. jgJgJP* The'wbol'e Slock mush be cleaied our regardless, of cost before the and of the moi'thi. n roigigm""'**'"' fMKj-jjt^aJiiaiii-i ��� STAHSII ^WtJtf^ p J.
