Alaska's Output
We are running today a portion
of the advance statement given out
by the U. S. Geological Survey of
the department of the interior,
which has been sent to the press of
Alaska.
The statement will be continued
from issue to issue as it is too long
for one insertion:
In 1921 sulphide-bearing lodes
were discovered in the foothills of
the Alaska range 2") miles southeast
of Kureka creek. I.i the K intlshna
district. These deposits we e found
by O. M. Cram and F. B. J.los, both
experienced prospectors, who slaked
22 claims. They he some 14 miles
from timber, but 'ignite beds are
close at hand. The y are readily ac
cessible to pack horses The con
struction of about 50 miles of wa
gon road would connect the locality
with the Alaska railroad at Riley
creek. Uranodlorite is the prevail
ing country rock of the region and
is found both in large areas und as
dikes. Banded and massive quartz
ites with some limestones and slate
cut by granodiorite dikes constitute
the formations In which the ores
have been lound. The sedimentarj
beds are much deformed and trend
a little north of west.
The ore bodies are distributed
through a zone thdt trends a little
north of east and thus apparently
cuts across the bedding of the sedi
ments. It has been traced about 2
miles and is reported to be longer
As determined by present discover
ies. its width is frgm one-fourth to
one mile wide. Tuts zone is char
: acterlzed by an abundance of sul
| phide minerals, concentrated in
1 more or Ies3 well lefined ore bod
I ies. Some of these bodies have de
finite walls; In others the ore grades
into the country reek. They occur
chiefly in the quaitzites, but some
are in the granodiorite and others
at the contact between the two. As
no excavatlort has been done it is
difficult to give exact statements a>
to width. At some places there is
evidence of sulphida mineralization
over a width of 1(0 feet, but in
these places the rioh sulphides ap
pear to be limited to "certain shoots
Most of the lodes »re much smal
ler and consist of snoots In zones 10
to 25 feet wide. The ore consists
chiefly of galena, chalcopyrite, zinc
blende, iron pvrite. and bornite.
Among these minerals galena ap
pears to dominate. A granular in
tergrowth of galenx with chalcopy
rite appears to form the typical ore.
but larger masses of pure galena are
also found. The gangue consists of
quartz and of country rock chiefly
quartzite. It) the absence of samp
ling or even of cits exposing the
ore, a definite statement of metallic
content is not justified. The grab
samples taken by owners of claims
have yielded from 0.20 to 270 ounc
es of silver and from a trace to 58
in gold to the ton. Three samples
carried from 1.17 la S.S7 per cent,
of copper.
No work had been done on the
Grant & Jiles claiins when they
were examined, nor on the other
prospects reported .n the same gen
eral region. Their value can there
fore not be predicted, but the sur
face exposures fully justify careful
1 prospecting.

CRYING FOR HELP
l^ot* of It In Skugway, But Haily
Growing Lrss
The kidneys often cry for help.
Not another organ in the whole
body mora delicately constructed:
Not one more impoflar.t to health.
The kidneys are the filters of the
blood.
When they (ail tie blood becomce
fonl and poisonous.
There can be na health where
there is paisoned blood.
Backache is one of the frequent
indications of kidney trouble.
It is often the kidneys' cry for
help. Heed JL
Read what Doan's Kidney Tills
hare done for overworked kidneys.
Proof of merit in the following
statement:
Z. H. Brott, Elgin. Ore., gays: "I
had kidney complaint and suffered
from a doll backache and sharp
pains across my kidneys. Mornings.
I was lame and stiff and the action
of my kidneys was irregular, being
at times too free. I read of Doan's
Kidney PiUs and nsed them. They
rid me of the backaches and put my
kidneys In good order. Three box
es of Doan's cured me."
