BRIEF ITEMS FROM ALL
PARTS OF THE TERRITORY
EVENTS IN THE NORTH AS PORTRAYED IN THE
PRESS OF ALASKA
i
Brown Carbon, king of the
trappers of the Iliamna count
ry, still retains his laurels in
that line, a?, he had more skins
again this year than any other
two trappers in the whole sect
ion.
George D. Beaumont, former
United States Marshal for the
First Judicial District of Alas
ka, wa3 recently elected presi
dent of the Alaska-Yukon club
of Southern California.
One of the worst floods in the
history of Fairbanks occurred
this spring when an ice jam
just above the Chena bridge
caused the water to overflow
the lower sections of the east
ern part of the city. The worst
stage of the flood lasted but
half an hour, but the rise was
so sudden that the residents of'
the inundated district had no
time to salvage their belong
ings and much damage was
done. E. L. Davis, whose store
on First Avenue was flooded,
with much damage to the
stock, was the heaviest loser.
A Point Barrow radio of June
j 3rd announced the death from
pleurisy of Mrs. Ben. Evans,
teacher of the government
school at Wainright, on May
28. Barrow teachers rushed
medicine to the stricken teach
er in the isolated village of
Wainright and the Kotzebue
doctor wired instructions in the
effort to save her life. Mr. Ev
ans planned to bury his wife at
Wainright and continue the
school work.
Two fair stowaways were
found beneath the seats of the
Gorst Airways plane Alaska,
just as the airship was ready
to start on a trip from Juneau
to Cordova. The young women
were covered by coats and
and carried lunch and water.
They said they intended to
come from their hiding places
after the airship was far out on
its course.
John Gerow, one of the early
prospectors in the Klondike,
and known all over the north,
died recently in Seattle, where
he had gone shortly before lor
medical treatment.
Rev. M. J. Kippenbrock, of
the Cordova Episcopal church,
was recently advanced to the
priesthood by Bishop P. T.
Rowe.
Passenger trains on the Alas
ka railroad, while going thru
the Nenana Canyon, stop when
the engineer sights a herd of
mountain sheep, caribou or
moose near the tracks, in ord
er to give the passengers an
opportunity to observe and
photograph the animals. It is
said that the Alaska Railroad
is the only real railroad in the
world where travelers can get
a close-up of real wild life.
Margaret Alstead, Cordova
child, was painfully burned
there recently, when she stum
bled into a bonfire near her
home. The child’s dress be
came ignited and she ran to her
home in fright, thereby fan
ning the blaze and making it
more serious.
Edward P. Drake, jr., former
well known Fairbanks music
ian, who was in practically ev
ery camp in Alaska except
Nome, died in Seattle recently
. Death was due to pneumonia.

SATISFACTION GUARANTEED
ESTIMATES CHEERFULLY FURNISHED
PLANE FLIGHT
Continued from Page 1.
der being a small place ana
considerably off the route of
the Alaska planes, Mr. Hill en
countered very great diffi
culty in persuading the comp
any officials to authorize the
flight; but was able to ove*~
come their objections and fin
ally won his point. Mr. Hill also
attempted to secure the con
sent of the postoffice depart
ment for the dispatch of one
sack of Hyder mail without
charge to the government ’out
was unable to secure the nec
essary authority, probably ow
ing to the same objections
that have caused the depart
ment to refuse authorization
of air mail service between Se
attle and Juneau, despite vig
orous urgings from Juneau,
Ketchikan and other west
coast towns. He is not unhope
ful, however, that ftie demon
stration of practicability pro
vided by the flight will ulti
mately give the camp both
mail and passenger service
by air.
According to Mr. Hill, Pilot
Eckmann was fully convinced,
after looking things over, that
a local service is feasible ana
intimated that he would en
deavor to influence the comp
any officials in that direction.
The company is preparing to
place three new planes in the
Alaska service as soon as the
pontoons can arrive from the
East and will be fully able to
care for such local traffic as
may develop.
The plane remained here un
til 11:35 a. m. Friday before
departing for Ketchikan, with
Mr. McKinney on board, en
route back to Seattle. During
the lay-over a large number or
residents of Hyder and Stewart
took advantage of their first
opportunity to fly over the
district and witness some of its
scenic marvels from the air.
All who made the trip are a
unit in declaring that the tre
mendous panorama of mile
high peaks, far spreading
glaciers and gigantic valleys is
a sight so magnificant as to be
quite beyond description. Near
ly all of them are anxious to
see it over again. The plane did
a thriving business, making
half hour flights with four
passengers at the nominal rate
of $10 per head, and earned
over a thousand dollars, ac
cording to reliable authority
ALASKA NOTES
Liquor law violators get hit
hard when overtaken by the
law in Fairbanks. A man and
woman arrested there recently
for bootlegging were tried and
convicted. The woman was giv
en nine months in jail and also
fined $750. The man drew six
months and a fine of $500. The
reports fail to tell why the wo
man was punished more heav
ily that the man.
Passengers and' crews of all
boats sailing from Nenana for
lower Yukon river points this
summer will be required to un
dergo vaccination against small
pox before sailing, according
to an announcement by the
Territorial Health commission
er, Dr. J. A. Sutherland. The
precaution is to be taken to
prevent a spread of the small
pox prevalent during the win
ter along the lower Yukon and
Kuskokwim rivers. All passen
gers sailing from Seattle to
Nome will also undergo vaccin
ation against smallpox.
