BACK FROM ALASKA AND GOLD RUSH OF 1897-OLD FRIENDS Virgil Kline of Reinbeck, Iowa, is home from Alaska where he went in the year 1897 when the gold rush was at Its height. He bad been absent thirty-three years and the old home town did not seem at all like he remembered it, though he was not surprised.

Humboldt county sent a man to the Klondike--or rather he went of his own will--about the same year. If this paper remembers correctly it WAg Lars Ekedal, and he has not been heard from in many years. It he should return to Humboldt, It he Is alive, his coming might be similar to the roturn of Virgil Kline In Relnbeck. Relative to Kilne's return the Reinbeck Courier aaya: "Memories of the Klondike gold rush of dimmed by years to staid Iowans, stirred into life this week when Virgil Kline returned at last from Klondike and looked about him for persons and places he remembered from thirty-throe years ago, when he left a farm south of town to seek fortune in the north. "The old hometown had changed and only a few of his friends were left.

"And he expects it to be his last, for sponding the winter visiting brothers sisters and gathering up the ties of the family, he plans to go back in March and Anish prospecting a few places in Alaska that looked good to him few years ago and that he never got around to thoroughly 'pan'. Only the fact that his Bister Mrs. John Horstman, was returning to Reinbeck last week from Long Beach, where he had been visiting her, brought him to his old home again. "Born and I reared on a farm south of Reinbeck, Mr. Kline was caught up in the rush for free gold in the Klondike country in '97.
