The citizens of Whitehorse turned ,
|
out en masse last week and scattered j
oil and sawdust soaked in oil over
the water holes in the vicinity of the
town to prevent the inroads of mos
quitoes, which make life a burden for
the townsmen.
Asa Fossbender, a former resident
of Nome and a pioneer of the North
died recently at Tonopah. He was
among the first to enter the Klondike
and made a fortune by operating in
Dawson and spent some time in the
Fairbanks district.
The federal grand jury at Juneau
returned an indictment last week
against I. P. Johnson, a Fort William
Seward soldier, charging him with an
attempt to burn the Arctic Brrother
hood hall at Haines. He appeared
and entered a plea of not guilty. It
is charged that he set fire to the
building some time in December.
The steamer Nasutlin was caught
in an ice jam at Mayo and rammed
and sunk in nine feet of water. Un
availing attempts have been made
to pump her out and it is feared that
she is badly damaged. She is canted
on one side with five feet of water
over her lower deck.
Dawson citizens are divided pro and
con over the small change question.
Mrny of the citizens believe that
to import nickles and dimes would
make the camp a cheaper place to
live with better bargains, while the
old timers stand out for a two-bit
town.

The Carisle Cannery company at
the mouth of the Yukon river, is to
have a radio plant this season, the
operator, a young Seattle student, be
ing a genius in wireless installation.
The instrument is a new kind, and
is so highly sensitized that the opera
tor will have no difficulty in picking
up any of the Pacific coast radios or
vessels, not over two thousand miles
distant.
Dick Thorn of Fairbanks has clos
ed down his moving picture theatre
for a time and is sending the large
stock of film used during the winter
back to the booking agencies. There
were two shipments, one of 380,000
feet and the other of 150,000, the win
ter showing amounting to over half
a million feet. Owing to the annual
freeze-up this must be laid in during
the fall and represents a large sum
of money.
Five cases of whiskey on the gas
boat Victor were seized by Walter B.
Sharp, deputy United States marshal
at Ketchikan. Ben Seines and Ben Ja
cobsen, charged with having liquor in
their possession, the men being re
leased on bail of $500, for which the
boat may be taken over by the gov
ernment. The cargo was brought in
from Prince Rupert, and part of the
load had been landed before the men
were apprehended.
Rev. B. F. Drane recently returned
to Fairbanks from a trip down the
river as far as Minto. He reported
five victims of influenza at Torchaket,
the creek opposite the old Minto
telegraph station, but that the Minto
tribe of Indians off on the lakes were
untouched by the epidemic. The Tor
chaket camp was found abandoned,
and everything left as in great haste.
A cache was found in which were
three corpses covered with heavy
poles. The missionary made a search
for the remainder of the tribe and
found them about twelve mile’s away
across the frozen lakes, busily en
gaged in fishing, trapping and making
canoes. They informed the Rev.
Drane there were five victims from
the flu instead of three. All wrere
buried.
me nrsi man iur sume time uwmg
to the influenza quarantine, arrived
at Brooks in the Livingood district.
The Brooks camp practically escaped
without having the epidemic owing to
the rigid quarantine established by
the citizens. There will not be much
summer work in the camp this sea
son owing to a scarcity of men and
the high cost of supplies. Several
cleanups have been made, and an es
timate of the output places it at half
a million dollars. The season was
very slow in opening up, water freez
ing in town as late as May 30. Gar
dens are being put in, and grain will
not be sowed to any great extent this
year. Business is noto good and
there will probably not be more than
80 men spend the summer in the
camp.
Will it be necessary to send out an
“S. O. S.” call to Secretary Daniels
to remind him that a virgin field of
coah suitable for navy fuel, lies at
our back door.
