ANOTHER TAKU GROUP BONDED Sum of $135,000 Paid for Property on South Fork of River, Says Fremming The bonding of another mineral property group on the south fork of the Taku River was reported here today by Elliott Fremming, Tulsequah man, who is in Juneau for the Fourth of July celebration. Fremming, who is with Capt. William Strong in Tulsequah busi- ness enterprises, reported that Van- ver capital has paid down $135,- He was unable to announce 000. whose group was taken over. Tulsequah, the townsite, accord- ing to Fremming, is busy, as is the entire district. The Alaska Ju- neau now has about 50 men at their camp, the Stapler interests expect to have about 25 men on their property soon, and there are be- tween 40 and 50 individual pros- pectors in the region. The heavy mineralized zone on the south fork of the Taku looks better every day, Fremming declared. The Canadian authorities are contemplating a trail to Atlin from Tulsequah, he said. The govern- ment will probably make a pre- liminary survey this fall. The route of the trail is” expected to be up the Taku Valley to canoe naviga- tion on the Sloko, then over a small divide to the automobile road 20 miles from Atlin. Another trail, to the Tulsequah Chief, Stapler property, will be built this year. ‘Tulsequah and the south fork of the Taku will also be connected by trail. Two parties from the Canadian government are already in the Taku field, one under Mr. Bartlett to do pographical mapping, and the cther under Dr. Kerr, minerologist. e ALASKA SOURDOUGH PASSES IN NEVADA Ben Simpson, pioneer merchant of the north, who has been making his home in the states since leaving Anchorage about six years ago, died at Reno, Nevada, June 13.—accord- ing to information received at Fairbanks by bis brother Abe, who is in business there.
