OCCURRENCES
Pete Peterson, a native of Denmark,
was instantly killed a few days ago
on the railroad line on the portage
between Taku arm and Atlin lake. He
was a brakeman on the road, and fell
in front of the engine while switching.
The Alaska draft men at Fort Gib
bon have been discharged. The men
received their discharges through the
agitation of the people of the Interior,
who protested against their being held
through the summer, when they could
be working.
Two Nenana hunters, while on a
trip in the Wood river district, pur
chased an old rilie made in the year
, 1742. The Indian chief from whom
■ the weapon was purchased told the
men that his great grandfather had
given eight silver fox skins for it to a
Hudson Bay trader.
Two Eskimos were recently taken
from Coppermine to Herschel island
to be tried for the murder of a woman
who was the wife of both men. It
is said that there are several cases of
polyandry existing among the Cana
dian Eskimos, but that it is not a sat
isfactory arrangement to the parties
concerned.
Gasboat mail service from October
to April each year will be inaugurated
between the towns of Petersburg,
Wrangell and Ketchikan. This, it is
thought, will help the steamer service
between the points, as several of the
larger boats do not call at Wrangell
and Petersburg. The gasboat will
leave Petersburg, south-bound, every
Tuesday morning, and Ketchikan,
north-bound, every Thursday morning.
The schooner Ruby, wrell known in
Alaska wraters, where she operates to
the Kuskokwim river, recently arrived
at Seattle after an eventful voyage to
the west coast of South America.
While in Mexican waters the crew of
the boat wrent to the assistance of a
floating cannery that was on fire and
helped drag a safe containing $20,000
to the beach. The Ruby is loading at
Seattle and will sail for the Kusko
kwim within a few days.
The Hazel B. No. 4 of the Harring
ton Transportation Company arrived
at Wrangell last w^eek, after having
made her maiden voyage up the Stik
ine river. The boat demonstrated to
her owners that she was a success for
river transportation. As the water in
the river was very high, the boat
could not demonstrate her full speed.
The boat is 65 feet in length, with
16 feet beam, and is equipped with
a 100 horse-power Wisconsin engine.
Several parties of big game hunters
have engaged reservations for a trip
up the river in the near future.
Three soldiers from Fort Seward
“went over the hill” recently. They
got as far as Log Cabin, on the White
Pass & Yukon route, where they were
working for a time. The Canadian
customs officer turned them back from
thej'e, and they started walking to
ward Skagway. Marshal Tanner and
a couple of deputies met them at Gla
cier and brought them to town. They
were placed in the federal jail at
Skagway, awaiting orders from the
commanding officer at the for/. The
men stole a boat at Haines, with which
they crossed over to the Skagway side.
