SHORT STORIES
i
A Mr. Sullivan is engaged in build
ing a new telegraph station at Salcha.
Joe Adamson and George Griggs
were arrested at Haines recently
charged with robbing fish traps. They
will be tried in Juneau.
Jack Buddy and Tom Nickerson,
alleged fish pirates, were arrested at
Ketchikan recently upon their ar
rival at that place from Petersburg
on the gas boat May.
Richard C. Morris, a merohant of
Nenana, recently arrived back in
that town after a voyage to North
Wales, where he married. He brought
his wife back with him.
Ensign Kerr of the Salvation
Army is touring the Interior in be
half of the Army’ big war drive for
funds. The motto of the Salvation
Army in this drive is “First to serve
i and last to appeal.”
While driving over the Richardson
road in the vicinity of Nenana a
short time ago a party of autoists
almost had a collision with a black
bear that was on the road. The
bear took to the timber.
Nenana is trymg hard to have mail
routed via Sawnij over the Broad
Pass route. While this would proba
bly delay the mails from six to eight
days over the time made by the Rich
ardson trail it would give Nenana
f the advantage of the winter travel to
the Interior.
The fact that the Alaskan engineer
ing commission was unable last win
ter to keep the government railroad
open, and the fear that traffic will
he interrupted again this winter has
caused officials of the American Ex
press Company to decide against mak
ing a change in the routing of express
matter to Interior points. The com
pany states that much lower rates
can be given and better time made
over the Richardson road.
According to advices received in
Fairbanks recently Irene Sherman,
the little girl who was bum* d so had
ly in the fire wnic.i ravaged her home
two years ago on Fifth avenue, and
who is now in a Seattle hospital, will
be operated on soon by the surgeons
there. The Seattle physicians believe
that they wilt be able to aid h- r tfn
- ricerably ant \htz she will show much
improvement after the operation.
R. M. Brown, Fairbanks agent for the
Brower stage line, announces that the
fair over the trail to Chitina is re
duced to $40 for each passenger, ef
fective immediately. John Brower,
head of the stage line stated some
time time ago that this reduction
^ would be made as soon as the trail
was in such condition that fast time
could he made between Fairbanks
and Chitina. One or more cars of
the line will probably leave during
the early part of the week.
E. E. Dunlevy, 56 years of age,
and a rancher about ten miles east
of Anchorage, was arrested by Depu
ty Marshals Mossman and Sturgis re
cently on the charge of violating the
federal laws by having in his posses
sion materials and machinery for
making the “white mule” for which
Anchorage is famous. Acting on in
formation which they had obtained
the marshals visited the Dunlevy
ranch and finding him absent entered
the house ani found several bar
rels of mash composed of corn and
peaches in a state of fermentation.
Adjoining the house they found a
copper boiler used for cooking the
mash. In the house were found bot
A ties, corks and caps. Dunlevy re
turned home later and was arrested.
The stores are doing a thriving
business in selling ammunition and
firearms for the deer season already
open. Several parties have arranged
for boats to make the first drive of
the season. It may not be amiss to
again sound a warning about indis
criminate .'hooting, says an exchange,
since almost every season soro * per
son is killed by careless shooting.
No true htitvman will ever T't at
anything moving in the brush. It is
better to miss all of the game than to
pot a human being. The woods will
be pretty well filled with hunters and
it will be necessary to exercise great
care. Deer that are shot must have
horns more than three inches long,
and no does or fawns may be
killed by one hunter in a season.
The moose season opened August 20.
Mountain goats may be killed te
twee the first of September and Oc
*■ tober 31. The open season for water
fowl is between September 1 and
December 15, and the same season
prevails for the grouse.*
On the next mail going to Nenana
will be a certified check made pay
able to the order of “Steve” Wenzel
for $512.20, which is the amount
raised for his relief by contributions
and the benefit ball game given under
the management of the Fairbank’s
Girls’ Rooters'’ club. This, with the
fund raised by the Nenana fans, will
insure that he loses nothing by his ac
cident—a broken arm sustained while
pitching for the Fairbanks team dur
ing the recent series of games at Ne
nana. The net proceeds from the
benefit ball game which the girls
turned over to Manager Charles Beam
amounted to $244.70. EvQry cent of
this was from tickets sold by them
or collected at the gate Sunday after
noon. They worked hard for the
game and its financial success is due
the management of the Fairbanks
N. W. Frost, one of the prom
inent big game guides of the Rock
ies, has sold his ranch at Cody, Wyo.,
and a short time ago came North to
look over the big game fields of the
territory. He may locate here if
he can get work in his line.
