SQUAW CREEK GOLD STRIKE BY JIM ANII PAIHIV IH'XCAN STAKT-Clt MTAMI'KllE ANII MANY 10-INO IN TIIEKE Passengers on board tbe Canadian National Steamship Prince Oeorge. which docked here this morning from Alaska, brought with them news of s gold strike In the Yukon which seme of the old sourdoughs think may be a second Klondike. To see the famous old Trail of IN was a thrill for tbe tourists from California and the eaat. but this was easily outdone by the excitement of being .close to a new "stampede." Squaw Creek, where tbe rind wa made by two Indians. Big Jim and Paddy Duncan, la a little distance out from While horse and the travellers did not have time to go out to tbe camp, but they could feet the excitement in the air and they could gaae at s thousand dollars worth of gold nuggets in s shop window, store than forty men have gone from White horse to stake da tots and every day sess new parties on the way to the Creek. The Prince George, which Inaugurated the Alaska summer service of the Canadian National steanwhrlps had a highly successful voyage. One party of Calllornian went on to Dawson, other passenger made the aborter trip to White hone. Bennett. Taku Ann and Atlln. Some are going to Jasper National Park, to ride the trails and play golf after the stimulation of the sea voyage. One of the brightest spots of the trip was the splendid view of Taku lacier. The steamer had never come closer to tbe toe. according to Captain Redden The only regret the excited passengers had was that their camera would not record the spectacular green of tbe guttering plnnaelee. Curio ah ops at Ketchikan, Wrangell. Juneau and Skagway and the museums and other show places did an exceptional business. It would be difficult to estimate the bulk of the cargo of totem pole, Indian mocassin, Jewelry and Ivory trinkets that thff puice ,peorge. 1 arrylng on Jiar return, voyage MAN WAS KILLED AND DRIVER IS CHARGED WITH MANSLAUGHTER VANCOUVER, June 18.
