SHORT STORIES
ABOUT ALASKA
OCCURRENCES
J. L. Gattis, an oldtime Alaska
printer, is now employed on the Se
attle Times.
Doc Madden and Jack Carmody
have purchased the Panhandle pool
room at Anchorage, the former owner
leaving for the Outside.
Dr. Kyvig, a sourdough resident of
the Cook inlet country, is located with
Mrs. Kyvig at Paulsbo, Wash., about
three hours’ ride from Seattle, where
he is running a drug store and prac
ticing his profession.
Dredges Nos. 2 and 4 of the Cana
dian Klondike Company have been
operating the past season, but it is
not known whether the company will
continue work throughout the winter.
Dawson is very quiet this season, and
things look blue for the old camp.
Percy DeWolfe, the old-time mail
carrier, has again taken up his bur
den and is supplying Dawsonites with
Montgomery Ward catalogues and
other solid reading. He recently ar
rived with the first mail of the sea
son, conveyed by his four dogs.
A total of twenty-two claims have
been staked on Moosehide creek, near
Dawson, each claim costing the staker
$10, and the annual assessment work
of $200 a year. Many of those staking
belong to the Moosehide clan of In
dians. Early arrivals in Dawson
staked the creek from end to end in
' —
the early days, and a few years later
Charley Bush staked the creek in
1906. Thousands of dollars were spent
by prospectors, many holes being sunk*
to bedrock, and good pay was obtained
but nothing was ever found worth
working it for.
Alfred Emerson and J. Masson, two
old-time Klondikers, have left for the
great Outside. Mr. Masson recently
returned to Dawson after service in
Siberia.
The Rev. Arthur C. Field, for many
years a resident of Dawson, and mis
sionary on the Yukon, was recently
united in marriage to Miss F. I. Nich
olson at St. John's church, Carterham
valley, Surrey, England. Mr. Fields
will be given a parish somewhere in
England.
John B. Hardy, master mechanic of
the Yukon Gold Company, left Daw
son recently to spend the winter in
his old home in Los Angeles. He has
two sons who served in the American
expeditionary forces,; and hopes to
meet them. Mr. Manchester of the
same company also left for the Out
side.
It is worth while to note that out
of more than $80,000 levied for taxes
this year in Juneau, only $1,500 was
permitted to become delinquent. Most
of those whose taxes became delin
quent have been out of the city. That
proves two things. Juneau people are
prosperous and they like their Juneau
property.
A locked Ford car standing in front
of the Zynda at Juneau started up the
hill all by its “lonesome,” and Lockie
McKinnon ran out and looked for the
police, thinking someone was trying
a joy ride. Investigation showed that
it was being propelled by the “gentle
zephyrs” which whispered about the
city at that time.
