and, if possible, furnish the North
era Pacific with the desired spuds.
The club officers do not intend +o

of gpudp with especial care and un
der most favorable conditions, so
thaf an especially good quality may
be seeurtxl. The farmer who raises
suitable potatoes for this advertise

DUBLIN GULCH RE
LOCATED IN BITTER COL3J
Daw sea.—Arrivals from the Mayo
district last week report that prac
tically all of the Dublin gulch con
cession, which wag thrown open to
staking February 5, was relocated.
About sixteen claims were staked,
.and men were ou the ground for the
job immediately on the appointed
hour despite the fact it was be
tween 50 and 60 below zero and
they had to travel a long distance
to go* there and wait in the cold
fcr some time for the opening hour.
Tom Burns, old time Ausrtalian,
who has returned to Dawson, was
one o* the stakeTs. He went out
accompanied by Bob Fisher and
J'.m Semple. Fisher was taken
sick on the way, but revived and
managed to get through in time
to stake. Semple "was so used up
br the hard trip he wag not in
condition to proceed beyond Minto
Bridge, so did net get in on the
staking bee. The only ground
remaining open, it is understood,
after the staking comprised about
four claims at the upper end' of
the creek, which were thought not
worth while. Most of the stakera
planted their posts oni the cr§ek
in hopes of getting gcheelite as
well as gold. The creek is report
ed to carry; a good run of schee
ligbt placer, resembling gray sand.
