GIFTS
Guard my mind that guides this pen,
That from its point may flow
Such words that lift the soul of men.
And baseness never know.
If in my care a gift is laid,
Like out of Heaven born,
Not words like a pointed blade—
But joyous as the morn.
If I should stoop to use this gift
To slander fellow men,
I only ask from whence it came—
It shall go back again.

SATTERWHITE MEETS DEATH
IN FALL FROM BRIDGE AT 43
—
James Satterwhite, section fore
man in the employ of the Alaskan
Engineering commission, with head
quarters at Nenana Crossing, met
death this morning as the result
of a fall from the railroad bridge
which spans the Nenana river at
Mile 43. He fell a distance of about
14 feet, landing on the back of his
head, on the ice, with the result
that his skull was fractured.
Chief Surgeon Thos. O. Lake
was summoned from town to attend
the injured man and the doctor
made a record run to the river on
the commission speeder. But he was 3
unable to do anything for the un
foAunate foreman, who died short
ly after the doctor’s arrival. The
body was brought to town later
1 on a special train.
The deceased had been in the em
ploy of the commission for a num
ber of years, and for several years
prior to his death, he was stationed
at Section 5, as foreman. He was
about 55 years of age, and a native
of Texas, where he is survived by
numerous relatives. He was an old
timer of the North, but was not a
member of the Pioneers. It is under
stood, however, that he belongs to
the Masonic order.
—
Captain Smythe, owner of the
wrecked steamer Shusana, arrived in
Nenana several days ago and is
now engaged in salvaging the craft,
which was shoved up on the bank,
near the commission sawmill, last
spring by the ice, and so badly
damaged that it was not consider
ed worth while making repairs.
The boat is being torn to pieces,
about the only valuable part left
intact being the boilers and engines.
Recent arrivals from the Fair
banks district bring the report that
the strike on Kokomo creek is not
panning out as well as was expected,
the indications being that the pay
does not extend more than a few
claims below discovery. The streak
of gold narrows down steadily be
low discovery, having the appearance
of tapering to a point, and it is al- j
so said that the values grow less
below discovery. Tony Zimmerman,
who went to Kokomo intending to
; install a hydraulic outfit, decided,
j after looking over the ground, that
the body of pay was not sufficiently
extensive to warrant the outlay.
The stork left a fine baby girl at
: the Government hospital on Sun
day morning for Mr. and Mrs. Boyd
; Hering.
