NEW river discovered
(Continued from page 1)
may turn easterly and flow Some
distance parallel, with, but contrary
to the Tanana; or it may be a
"blind" river—that is, it may Ios'j
itself in lakes and sloughs and have
no fixed and concentrated outflow
Into the Tanana. Several persons
suggested to Mr. Eajtin that the
new stream be designated on the
map as the River of Doubt, In'
r honor of Colonel Roosevelt's cele
bratod Brazilian discovery.
The object of tho trip was to
secure both topographic and geo
logic data, and the results in
both branches of the worfc were
very gratifying. After getting out
or th« silt terraces high ridges with
{ expose' rock formation wer« found
i aud conditions were favorable for
geological investigation. The party
touched the watershed of the North
Fork of Kuskokwlm and reached
th* Nowitna above the canyon. Two
weeks' more time would have been
sp?nt in that country, only the
cond'tion of the horses would not
admit of It.
Mr. Eakin was accompanied by
Claude Beck and Forrest Welborn,
both of Salem, Ore. These young
men were new to the North, and
in some instances were up against
a pretty hard graft; but both of
them were delighted with their ex
perience and hope to return to the
country. *

siderable shipment of ore was made
to the Tacoma smblter during the
past summer. The owner of the
Fairbanks mine Is reported to be
investigating the possibility of bring

large auto trucks.
Capt. Peabody is fortunate in hav
ing his transportation problem
solved by nature as hia mine Is
right on the coast, surrounded by
good timber, and at an altitude of
less than 2000 feet.
Dr. Brooks, chief of tho Alaskan
