Klondike Fever Rises On New British Columbia Gold Field
The North Hemisphere reports a rush to the Tagish district in British Columbia where dirt yields from 50 cents to six dollars a pan and beds of bedrock lie within five feet. Reports from Skagway Bennet and Cottage City describe abundant claims, large dust finds, and early names such as J. E. Feero and Frank Hinds, with miners flocking toward Pike Creek and the northern Cassiar region.
