Advertisers Give Information
Figure It Out For Yourself
You wnnt a home of your own everybody
does. Vou want to know about the cost or
how to finance the building. Perhaps you
Vvant to buy the lot, or it may be to inquire
about the furnishing of a room. Just ask the
advertisers they'll know.
The chances are good that if you have been
keeping house' in an apartment or a cottage
you have paid out enough in rentals since you
have been married to have built a good
home, and you don't have a thing .in the
world to show for it. Just figure it out.

C. C. Hurst, a well known resi
dent of Hoseburg and a former
Alaskan gold miner, is visiting bis
old haunts in Yukon Territory. An j
article in a recont issue of The
Unwson News, tells of Mr. Hurst's
visit an follows:
Still the lure ot old Bonanza1
beckons to sourdoughs of yester
day. At least that Is the way it is
with C. C. Hurst, erstwhile Bon
anza creek miner, who Is back In
Dawson after an absence of twenty-three
years from the Yukon.
In 1893 the venturesome miner
hiked for tho Yukon, at tho time
when the newly-discovered gold
camp was at Its zenith. Like many
other business men from the out
side, Hurst knew little or nothing
about the mining gnme.
However, tho gold was there, and
that's what he went after. Staking
a claim at 45 Bonanza, he dug in
like all the rest. Then tho seeth
ing mass of humanity that was
Dawson during its wildest days.
Iu the dance halls and gambling
dens everyone talked "gold." The
yellow metal became an idol, a
weird fantasy, something that one
had to dig Into tho ground for and
shovel up iu pokefuls.
"Ground that did not run at least
50 cents In gold to the pan was
considered barren. No good at all."
"I heard that remark," states the
former sourdough. "Heard.. 11
many times,, and, not knowing,' I.
belioved it. My ground was good Ira
for 35 cents for every pnn Hint I
took out, but I sloughed It. Sold
it to a lucky Swede who cleaned
up on what I left and then beat it
for the outside.
"Then a new location 52 Bon-
anza.-the Fairbanks stampede,
and away again. After prospecting
and mining on Dome and Gold
stream creeks, in the Fairbanks
district, I packed up and hit for
tho Iditnrod: eventunllv Hie Knsk-
okwlm, back to Iditarod, on to
Marshall, Nenana, and finnfly tho
outside." '
And now the old-timer is back In
the Yukon ngnin. Back nftor hav
ing re-established himself in busi
ness on tho outside, after his cam
paign in the northland. For tho
time being his prune ranch nt
Rosoburg, Orjgon, has been forgot
ten while the early-day miner
idles through the Yukon.
On tills trip lo the north the
optimistic sourdough Is nccoinpan-
o Dy nis nepnew. u. H. Hurst, n
young geologist, who is connected
with the American-Hawaiian
Steamship company of San Fran
cisco.
"My nephew has always longed
for a-trip -to the Yukon," nttests
the uncle. "He wants to hunt and
fish and explore this gold land.
Now he's on his summer vaca
tion he has got his chance."
yesterday the former K omllkor
nnd his nephew took a trip as fnr
as jacKson guicn.
' "The old' , plnce has certainly i
changed," exclaimed the sour
dough, "and such a vast change
has a depressing effect. However,
there is. plenty of gold in this
country, and I am sure that things
will pick up. At any rate, I'm glad i
to be among the northerners again, '
and before we leave my nephew
and I are going to visit the old
claim and see if wo can locate a
few colors even at this stnge of the
game." -
