He has retu rn e d very

"T h e re are probably u o t less th a n

d octot, " a n d claim s have been tak en

and no one know s w h a t is b en eath
them . M ining and pro sp ectin g is im ­
possible, and it w ill be six w eeks yet
before th e snow w ill h a r e le ft th e

is concerned, it is difficult to te ll
A
prospector can find color an y w h ere
along th e creeks, b u t it is very h a rd , in

T he ex p erim en ts w ith gold m ach in es
have proved failures.
" T h e m in in g co u n try is located alo n g
th e creeks. Both R essurreetion and

Som e

Dr. Dunn sta te d the h e a lth of those
