I signed a month ago to practice
law in Juneau.
Bob Martin, well known old
timer, returned to Wrangell re
cently after spending several
weeks in the Cassiar country
j and reported that while at
Gold Pan tCreek, he secured
options on two claims and also
I staked eight others which had
been allowed to lapse by form
er owners. Martin now con
trols all the ground along the
creek from 17 above to 27
above discovery.
Fairbanks residents got a
glimpse at the recent eclipse
of the sun, which occured there
at 7:15 p. m. June 28. The
sun’s rays were appreciably
cut off and for about ten min
utes only the outer edges of
the big globe gave out light.
The eclipse was visible in a
lessening degree for about
two hours.
j Threatened by mobs of union
: fishermen at Port Alexander
1 because they trolled on Sunday
in violation of the federal laws
and regulations, two brothers
named Peterson, operating the
boats Elk and Olga, were res
cued by Special Officer Jack
Wilson. The two men were re
ported to have brought their
caches to Port Alexander and
i to have sold them for $400.
They admitted catching the
! fish on Sunday, June 19th.
: The union men, who were ob
i serving the Sunday closed seas
on, were angered by the violat
ion of the law, and were only
j prevented from violently hand
ling the Peterson’s by the
timely intervention of Officer
Wilson. The Petersons later
; went to Juneau, entered a plea
of guilty before Commissioner
Boyle, and were fined $200
! each.
