ITREASURE HUNTERS FLOCK NORTHWARD “Gold” Rur.ors Stir Camps on Great Bear Lake. Secrecy Rules. frozen northwesi territor radium deposits rumors of strikes reach its peak by Summer Prederic) man and magazine writer, now at Great Bear Lake, tells below what is going on BY FREDERICK B. WATT. By Mail to The Star LINDSLEY BAY, Great Bear Lake March 25 (N:A.N.A.) —Hailed when i oegan as a prelimirary flurry that would be of no consequence compared to activ- ity fhat would strixe Great Bear Lake | with open water in July, Winter staking ! (for it is still Winter here, desp calendar) has grown from a flurry a storm. Treasure hunters, avid for a share of the radium deposits which have m~de Great Bear Lake the scene of th» world's newest mining rush, and excited further by tales of rich gold and silver strikes, are fighting their way here in constantly increasing numbers and staking claims which they hope may bring them sudden weaith A month ago this section of Lindsley was on the outer fringes of the Ten days back I saw the ships flying 15 miles to the north as prospzctors squared off their spruce markers. Todav. accord- ing to all report, there is little oven ground along the entire coast fr Labine Point to Hunter Bay, 35 mil to the north. Certainly the movement in that di rection has assumed a mcre urgenf pace in the last few days—and it has time during the last six weeks The other morning this cove whi we are camped saw five men fry th customary bacon. By evening the smoke of many fires hung along the shore line and the population of 5 had risen to 17—to say nothing of 35 dogs that made the night weird with their wolflike singing. The majority of the newcomers were heading for the forefront of the rush Planes Pass Overhead. Not long ago four large monoplanes passed directly overhead. Their noses pointed toward Hunter Bay. The drone of other planes could be heard in the distance. An Indian dog driver. returning from up the coast, reported “many tents.” Rumor of It's hard to rich strike in the Hunter ' Bay region is current here. That un- | usually fine copper deposits are in the region has long been M:hlowledged but now the magic word “gold” circu- lates freely and whether it is based on fact or not it is daily drawing airplane, dog train and hand tobuggan to the North. Reports of silver strikes grow con- stantly more persistent, particularly one |en Stevens Island, fway between Echo and Hunter Bays, The free-and- easy air of the earlier gays of the rush is passing and more and more parties are developing the secretiveness of men working closer to “civilization.” Competition is arising from an in- crousmg number of stakers and a de- creasing amount of open ground in the generally recognized field. ently 1 hear. a prospector was g high ground on the lake shore, when he was hailed by a man down on the ice. He aeserted his work, climbed sta down the hill and for & considerable | time was held in conversation by the newcomer. Meantime, two of the stranger's companions worked up the slope from behind and quietly annexed the ground which the prospector had not completed staking However much fact there is behind the story—and it is an incident not un- common to new rnining fields—it has | been accapted completely by every one I have met and has worked a subtle change in the atmosphere of the place. Men are beginning to check up on the other fellow's posts te. make cer- tain everything is fair and square. Facts Given Grudgingly. Information on locations and forma- tions is given grudgingly are being tied tight and the entire activity of the place has developed from that of a rather rigorous game to of a hard business in which one be on his guard against smart | ng Northerners are inclined to blame this on the growing number of men coming in from “outside,” while pro- fessional prospectors are equally cer- tain that the Nerthmen have brought it on themselves by “blanketing" blocks of claims for quick sale rather than development, thus impeding the business of skilled geological inspection in_some sections The natives have entered into the piciure forcibly. Among recent ar- rivals at this camp were seven Indians, of whom brought dog trains. They had hurriedly wound up their Winter's trapping and fishing at Bear Point 140 miles across the lake, and driven re in two days to join in the stak- g Outward bound kinsmen had them of the opportunities offered able- bodied wocdsmen at Echo Bay. Within a short time a lone tribesman for hard travel. was the only adult male left in the encampment at Bear Point. Here js a sore point with some of the white men in the field. They take the view that an Indian accepts treaty money, that he is a ward of the Gov- ernment, that he does not know the difference between radium, pitchblende and granite; in general that he is step- ping into a’ game in which he has no right. L Nevertheless there Is nothing in the mining act that says he must not. Also it is no secret that the money for judge value on first sight DON'T RELY ON SHOP-WINDOW APPEARANCE Take watches, for in- stance. Buying a suit is like buying a watch +it’s hard to judge valuewhen they’re new. You want a watch that will keep perfect time for years, so you bank on the maker’s reputation. Buy your next suit just that way.don’t rely on shop-window appearance. True quality shows up after months of hard wear.
