who are mining or prospecting for

numerous this year as in former
years.

A. A. Allan who will start for
Juneau somewhere around February
1 will not take his auto sled. He
is advised that gasoline is hard to
secure at stations along the trail
and these conditins make the matter
somewhat risky. On Saturday he
gave his sled a severe test up a
steep bank on Dry creek, over fifty
per cent grade and lie found that
with 1300 revolutions the machine
was gaining speed as lie reached
the top. Owing to the fact that lie
still sees many ways of improving
the sled, he will not risk taking it
out to Juneau with him. lie may
also change the entire type of en
gine for a machine which will be
better suited to the tough uses of
Alaska travel.

On Saturday Captain Robertson
who with Ford and Kuhl was en
gaged in dismantling the schooner
Elk which is lying in the way of
the road beyond the Standard Oil
Warehouses was instantly killed
when struck by the falling mast.
His neck was broken and one arm
also fractured. The medical officer :
called in to examine tlie body of 1
the victim expressed the
opinion that death followed immt
diatelv the blow. It appears that
the Elk was being dismantled for
firewood by the three men and the
mast was being taken down. It was
sawed about even with the deck
and Ford who wras attending to the
work of lowering the mast shouted
for all to stand where they were as
the big stiea wh'ch is 65 feet long
began to tall. Unfortunately Robert- j
son seems to have misunderstood j
the order for he walked directly i
under it and receiv d the full ;
weight where h' was standing in
the road. Tlx- Elk is owned by ;
Captain Barthrup. It was sold at i
Marshal sale and bought in by j
Henry Lott on money given by j
Barthrup for that purpose and Lott j
got the deed. Other mortgagees i j
claim title and the matter is still j j
subject of contest. The men engaged j
in dismantling the boat were engag- j
3d as alerady staetd in gutting the j
schooner for firewood and as the
boat is in the way of all freighting
and dog teams to pull the old hulk
to pieces would be a decided con
venience. Robertson is an old timer
and a pioneer and was somewhere
in the neighborhood of seventy
years of age. The body was removed
in a sled to the Undertaking parlors
and was inspected by the Commis
sioner and by Dr, Neuman.
