WHAT IS DOING
’ IN SOCIAL WAY
AT KENNECOTT
KENNECOTT, Aug. 14 (Special to
Daily Times).—Mrs. Morris Knapp
gave a dinner Thursday, complimen
tary to Miss Jean Scobie, who left on
Friday’s train en route for the States.
During her residence of a year and
a half in Kennecott where she was
employed as nurse in the hospital,
Miss Scobie made many warm friends
who very much regret her going.
Mrs. Richard Watkins entertained
informally for Miss Scobie on Thurs
day evening. Dainty refreshments
were served and a most enjoyable
time was had by all.
Mildred Ericson celebrated her
^ eighth birthday on Wednesday, the
13th, assisted by the following guests:
Katherine Dennis, Beatrice Connors,
Edith Wilson, Jane Vickers, Dorothy
Connors, Deborado Vickers and Allan
Huntington. Games were played, af
ter which refreshments were served;
beauty and goodness were combined
in the birthday cake with its eight
twinkling lights. Several useful
presents were received, and her
young friends were a unit in wishing
their little hostess many happy re
turns of the day.
On Wednesday evening Mrs. R.
Schneeberger and Mrs. Chris. Jensen
gave a farewell party at the home of
the former for Mr. and Mrs. Holger
sen, who were outgoing passengers
on Friday’s train. Music and danc
ing were the amusements of the even
ing, and much appreciated refresh- j
ments added to the enjoyment of all.

Mrs. F. J. Dwyer of Strelna was
operated on for apendicitis on Wed
nesday, by Dr. Gillespie, at the Ken
* necott hospital, and is progressing
toward a rapid recovery.

Two different men were arrested
^ in one week in the same shack at
Ketchikan for bootlegging. The
lirst man had hardly been jailed
when a man arived from Seattle with
a trunk load of whisky that he placed
in the shack and opened up for busi
ness. He also was arrested and fined
$300.
Shortage of men is the cry of
the mining operators on Chititu, Rex
and Dan creeks, Nizina district.
L. H. Carvey, in charge of the
workings of the Andrus campany, has
six giants working on Rex gulch, and
the engine and hoist are demonstrat
ing their value. If the good water
continues results will be great.
The big plant on Chititu is moving
volumes of dirt and making good
progress.
Anderson, Hansen & Anderson, lay
men on the Rex Alaska property, are
doing well, considering the size of
their plant. They made a cleanup
this week.
Art Powell, on 17 Rex, is in good
pay but against a tough proposition.
He lost about $200 of his cleanup
through a slide which occurred the
night before*, breaking two of his
boxes. He had shoveled in for ten
days, of which he saved $92. This
week he picked up a nugget weigh
ing $27.80. He feels that prospects
justify the installation of a plant,
which he will procure next season.
Mike Molenski is mining slow and
sure as usual. His cleanup a few
weeks back ran into four figures.
George Madden’s friends will be
very glad to learn that he is steadily
improving after his illness of several
weeks. Dr. Gillespie of Kennecott
journeyed to Nizina on Tuesday to
attend him.
Con Miller, vrho holds come valu
able mining property at the head of
the Chitina country, is waiting for
the river to lower before attempting
to take another outfit across, his part
ner being nearly drowned on last
trip.
The Cole brothers made a trip to
Nizina with their sister this jveek,
having a most enjoyable visit with
the operators and miners, vrho all
extended generous hospitality. Re
turning, the lady took the ferry v*hile
the boys sw^am the river.
Rev. C. K. Nicol, formerly the
pastor of the Presbyterian church
at Whitehorse, recently returned to
that place, after having spent three
years in France fighting for the al
lies. He vras given a very enthusi
astic welcome when he got back to
Whitehoi'se.
