SHORT STORIES
ABOUT ALASKA
Winter prospecting around Nome is
on the increase.
The Nenana Igloo of Pioneers has
elected a delegate to the Grand Igloo
to be held in Anchorage this spring.
Bill Sherman and Lou Haley of An
chorage have opened up a new barber
shop. They were formerly in busi
ness in Knik.
Claude Mathison of Seward has
opened a soft drink establishment and
outfitting store at Mile 52, on the gov
ernment railway,
Bobby Small, one of the original lo
cators in Anchorage, has added the
Ford agency to his blacksmith busi
ness in Hyder,
Frank Lawrson and associates have
finished cutting a thirty-mile winter
road to their mine on Shaw creek and
Salchaket. A boiler and drill are be
ing hauled in.
The government threshing machine
at Fairbanks has finished its work for
the season, and was an object of curi
osity to the old sourdoughs of the city,
as it was being pulled through the
Streets to winter quarters.
Jack Howell of Hot Springs and Dr.
Sutherland of Fairbanks have bought
Jack Hamilton’s mine on Moose creek,
in the Kantishna.

Happy Jack of Kantishna is taking
out ore on Clearwater creek averaging
$208 per ton. The production of gold
and silver from the Kantishna district
is estimated at about $25,000. during
the past year.
The Anchorage firm of McNally &
I Maitland, who have been mining the
J past two years under a permit at
Bluff point, on the eastern shore of
Cook inlet, have leased the ground
from the government. The coal is
lignite, but adapted to local needs.
An average of 250 barrels of herring
per day are being received by the
New England Fish Company and the
Ketchikan Cold Storage Company. The
bait outlook for the coming year is
very promising,
Louise Graeber, who was arrested
recently in Juneau while on her way
to the States, on a charge of bigamy,
has been held to await the action of
the grand jury this spring. She has
been released on bail by the Seward
I commissioner.
There will be no curtailment in the
Nenana telephone system, as previ
ously contemplated by the railway
commission, for the purpose of cut
ting down expenses. The commission
had announced that it would cut the
office force in two and close between
11 and 7 o’clock, which would save
the government $100 per month. The
system is not on a paying basis.
Not only at Beaver Dam but all over
the whole dam trail section they are
damning the Dam cold that is damn
ing things at Beaver Dam, where it is
so Beaver-Damcold that the wires are
ruptured in all directions from the
Dam. There’s a ton of frost on every
little wire, there’s a blizzard on the
summit, and it’s zero and then a lot
in the valleys, and there’s no bloomin’
health on the trail.
A peculiar accident occurred some
time ago on the Tanana valley portion
of the railroad lines operated by the
Alaskan engineering commission. A
slight earthquake, which apparently
did no damage elsewhere, dried up*
the stream which supplied the water
tanks at Olnes, a station about thirty
four miles from Fairbanks. The
stream was apparently turned into
some underground channel, and the
water tanks have been moved to an
other station where the water is avail
able.
As an indication of a heavy tourist
travel to Alaska during the coming
season a tourist-booking association
of New York has made overtures to
one of the largest companies operat
ing passenger steamers on the Seat
tle-Alaska run to purchase all its pas
senger accommodations for the com
ing tourist season. The transporta
tion company, not desiring to bar lo
cal patrons, declined the offer, and
will handle the summer travel as for
merly. Even at this early date thou
sands of reservations for the tourist
season have been made.
