FIFTEEN HUNDRED MINING CLAIMS
HAVE BEEN STAKED AT MAYO
Ill summing up'the Mayo districi
the Duwsou News states.
The wail received yesterday by the
mining recorder at Dawson brought
55 more applications for claims
staked in the Mayo district. This
makes approximately too claims in
that area applied (or this season,
raising the total mineral locations
now live in the Mayo area to l.SOv
The greater number of these claims
are oil Kena Mill and most of the
others on hills adjacent to Keno.
Quartz Kecorder Gillespie and oth
ers of (be gold office are busy re
reiving and tiling tlie applications
and diagrams and issuing "grams
Of the applications received yes
terday about two-thirds are for lo
cations made on Galena Hill. Some
tiling like titty claims have been
slaked there. A few staked last fall
and others since the snow went off
this spring.
Arrivals yesterday from Mayo
brought word thatthe first sinkings
on (ialeiia this spring were on the
Duncan Creek side, hut that since
the middle of this month a new
find has attracted attention on the
westerly or t'.alena Creek side, to
ward the JlcQuestion valley. About
thirty men are said to have joined
in a stampede over the hill from
Duncan Creek and Keno City be
tween July 17 and 20. and lo have
staked, and others were reported
going over to stake at the time she
last advices were received from
there. Kd Klwell, old-time Hunker
Creek miner, who arrived on the
Xasutlin yesterday, was one of the
stampeders and stakers. He says
the trail from Keno City over to the
point where the r-ore recent staking
began was about four miles long,
and through the timber and brush.
The discovery he states, is on the
face of a bluff on what Is known as
Porcupine Creek, which enters Ga
lena Creek three miles above the
old Silver King mine. The Silver
King several years ago was discov
ered by Harry McWhorter and sold
to Torn Aitken. and later was held
for a time by frank G. Marley and
E. J. Ives. Mr. Ives is now in Daw
sou. It is anderslood t lie Silver

that plans are beinjt made 1o take
out some of the ore for tests this
