BRIEF ITEMS FROM ALL
PARTS OF THE TCRIUTOl
EVENTS IN THE NORTH AS PORTRAYED IN THE
PRESS OF ALASKA
OF THE TCRIUT0R1
Operations at the Jualin. mine
on Berners Bay will be resum
ed this summer, according to
recent announcements by Jean
Vanophen, the owner, who is
now in Paris. The Jualin prop
erty has not been operated in
more than a decade. It was
considered a prosperous un
dertaking but so much moist
ure was encountered that it
was decided to drive a special
tunnel to convey the water
out of the mine. This project
was started, but no work what
ever has been done on the
property during the last four
or five years.
The Johnson bill providing
for the care of Alaskan crimi
nal insane at the St Elizabeth
hospital in Washington, D. C.,
was approved recently by the
House Judiciary committee.
Heretofore all Alaskan insane
patients have been sent to the
Morningside hospital, Port
land, Oregon.
Five candidates for the lower
house of the Territorial Legis
lature have filed as independ
ents in the Fourth Division*
They are Robert E. Sheldon,
who has been a member of
the last two sessions of the
legislature; Paul J. Rickert,
Walter Fischer, who was a
member of the last Legislat
ure, Dan Callahan and C. I.
Davidson.
Livingstone Wemecke, gen
eral superintendent of the Yu
kon Treadwell Mining Com
pany, operating at Keno, in the
Mayo district, went south re
cently on his annual trip to the
company headquarters in San
Francisco. Traveling by air
from Mayo to Whitehorse, he
| made in a little more than two
hours a trip which it has al
ways required a week to make
with either horses or doers.
While a reduction plant has
been operated by the company
lit Keno for the past two years
6,000 tons of ore was freighted
from there during the winter
to Mayo, where it will be load
ed on barges at the opening of
navigation and shipped to a
smelter in Idaho, going to Ne
nana by boat and thence to the
Coast by the Alaska Railroad.
Owing to the expense of the
long haul it is not possible for
the company to ship out ore
that goes less than $100 per
ton. Ore treated at the mill at
Keno is shipped to the outside
in sacks and brought up the
Yukon River to Whitehorse by
White Pass steamers.
H. K. Carlisle, general agent
of the land office at Fairbanks,
is reported to have had a nar
row escape from drowning re
cently when the ice broke un
der him as he was crossing the
Chena River. It is said that he
owes his life to the fact that he
was leading two dogs on chains
and the dogs managed to re

260 men and women partici
pated in a modern Alaskan

trap 20 beaver during the next
thirty days before the area is
indefinitely closed to trapping.
All sections of Alaska were
represented in the stampede.
