There came in on the Excelsior some
40 people among them some women
from what is now known as the Clon
dyke district, though only 15 of these
biid been actually engaged in mining.
There were among them men who had
been for mote than 10 years facing the
dangers and hardships of the frozen
North in the hope of making a rich
find but who signally failed. Hut now
they come hack with foi tunes stowed
in their gripsacks and untold millions
to be picked up in the country of w hich
so little is known.
The new Kldorado lies just across the
Aa-kan boiindaiy in Hritish territory.
It is of icceiit discovcty, but already
there are at least 3,0110 people on the

be secured.
The discovery of the Clondyke region
1 resents a story that is uniquely inter- J
esting. Around Forty-Mile, on thr
Yukon, is a tri Ik- of Indians known li
the Slickers, and with them is a man
who years ago was known as (icorgt
Coruiack, but who is now called "Stick
(icorge." In September last at tin
head of a party of Indians, he left his '
hut near Forty-Mile camp and started
in a southerly direction, saying that he 1
intended to lilld a new gold held before
his return. lie came back two weeks
later and startled the miners w ith the
aiinoiiiicement that 40 llll Ici away there '
was gold to be found in picnty. The ;
streams abounded with tiie yellow '
metal, and all that was needed was foi
soinelssly to pick it up.
Many s-rsons (locked to the place,
and in time the word reached Forty
Mile camp that untold riches could bt
found along the Is'ttnni of Bonanza
creek and its tributaries. Men who
had failed at the former camp imme
diately packed their belongings and set
out for the new liel, Is. It was a hard

i It is the opinion of the specialist,
judging fioui the density of the bullet
-pots in the negatives that the bullet
' w -ji lodged about two inches in front of
the spine. If that is ho, and tho ball
traveled in straight line, it must
have gone through the heart. If it did
not g, through the heart, how did it
Let aiouud tlm heart and reach its
present location? That is what troubles
the surgeons. Nelson's heart is direct
ly back of the entrance of the bullet
and surgeons sav the bullet could not
have gone in direct line without pierc
ing the heart. The sciagraph indicate
that the hall was not deflected. It Will
require another sciagraph showing a
lateral view of the patient's chest to
determine whether the bullet has
passed through the heart or not. If it
proves to be back of the heart, the
nnstery will be greater than ever.

I en he began to recover they con
cluded that the bullet hud pierced the
pericardium, the sack enveloping the

the bullet did not drop, but went
straight ahead in its course, after bor
ing its way through tho breast bono.
In taking the sciagraphs, Nelson was
