Prom the lower river it has
beea learned " that on Sunday, July
14, a cleanup was made on the
property owned by Jerry Ford, A1
Walsh and Tom Altken at the head
of Flat creek. The cleanup, which
before sluicing wa estimated at
$35,000, resulted in $80,000 worth
or the shining metal being taken
from *he boxes;
The claim from which the clean
up was taken lies at tha top of a
low hill lh a shallow, basin, the
supposition befog thai during the
glacial period the dust was deposit
ed, Tha* part 6t th® c reels had nev
er been prospected before, and It
wa# a fortunate circumstance'which
led the m«n to sink their shaft di
rectly over the spot where the de
posit had been made, the drifting
now showing tbat th« balance of
the claim doee not carry high val
ues.
Maojr Evans of the Medical de
Darmtent was a Skagway visitor
while the Peterson was lh portt.
Sergeant A. L. Blxby and his wife
were saying farewell-to their many
[friends here today, having come up
on the Peterson. Sergeant Bixby
has a host of lriends as he has been
in Alaska a numoer of times. He
was instructor for the Skagway
Home Guard last year and it is the
hope of many that he will be sta
tioned at Fort Seward when the
war is over. He says he will come
back to Alaska after he retires,
which will be in two or three years
unless the war lasts longer than
that. They do not know when they
will be ordered out of Seward but
Sergeant Bixby will not be able to
come again to Skagway before nail
ing.
i Although the Copper river haa
lowered so that It 'a no longer dan
gerous to the road bed of the Cop-,
per River and Northwestern rail
way, a place at Mile 33, where the
river has changed its course and
swung Into the road is still giving
trouDle, according to Caleb Corser,
superintendent of the railway. He
states that between 6,000 and 10,
000 car loads of gravel have been
flumped at this point to keep the
road oed intact.
The excursion to be run Sunday
by the Copper River and North
western railway for the benefit of
employes will leave the depot ftt
9 o'clock in the morning, go to the
