j Assistant Territorial Health Com
missioner J. A. Sutherland, Drug
gist Frank R. Clark, former Rep
resentative E. B. Collins and the
other prominent Kairbanksans who
came to Xenana while the flu epi
demic was at its height here, to
assist in the care of the sick, re
turned to their homes today. They
rendered very valuable service dur
ing the time they were in Xenana,
and they remained until it was cer
tain that Xenana could handle the
situation without further assistance.
Mr. Collins and the majority of his
nursing staff spent ten days in Xe
nana, and the others arrived last
Friday.
Upon arrival in Xenana, Mr. Col
lins assumed charge of the nursing,
detailing his assistants and the Xe
nana nurses to the various assign
ments and doing a large share of
the nursing himself. The visitors
arrived at a time when both the
sick and the well of Xenana were
on the verge of panic, in conse
quence of many deaths in rapid suc
cession, and their coming had the
effect not only of reassuring the
public, but also of relieving the
strain of those upon whom the bur
den of nursing had fallen up to
that time.
Ihe arrival of Dr. Sutherland on
Friday gave further reassurance and
he found plenty to keep his time
well occupied during his brief stay
here. The situation was still fur
ther relieved on Saturday by the
arrival of Dr. E. M. Spaulding from
the coast. He will remain here un
til all traces of the epidemic have
disappeared.
The people of Xenana are sin
cerely grateful to the Fairbanksans
who came to Nenana's assistance
at a rime when aid was urgently
needed. they will not soon forget
the service rendered, and will avail
themselves of the earliest oppor
tunity to prove that the service is
appreciated.
Reports from out the line today
indicate that the treatment of flu
and pneumonia patients at the end
of steel and at the Kestly camp is
progressing satisfactorily. There are
several bad cases, but in the main
the patients are on the mend, under
the skillful treatment of Dr. T. O.
Lake and his capable assistants,
Superintendent of Construction Dan
Leech and Resident Engineer Huston
D. Mills.
There was a report in circulation
today that Ben Johnson had died,
i>ut the report was denied by Andy
Harkeom, at the end of steel. John
son is very ill, but was reported to
je making a hard fight for life.
Good reports also have been re
ceived from the village above town,
tearly all of the patients there now
>eing on the mend.

DIE Al CIRCLE;
E
There have been no deaths among
the white residents of Circle and
all of the flu patients there are now
on the road to recovery, according
to information received at Fairbanks
today from Deputy Marshal Ed Pop
pel, who served the stricken com
munity as doctor, nurse and general
utility man while the epidemic was
at its height.
The escape of the little settle
ment on the Yukon river from more
serious consequences is the more re
markable in view of the fact that
there was no doctor there to minis
ter to the sick, and only a very
limited supply of medicine. Poppel
wired to Fairbanks and Xenana for
information relative to the treat
ment of flu cases, and then did tne
best he could under the circum
stances.
The natives in that locality also
were stricken, along with the whites,
and eight of them died. The rest
of them, however, now appear to be
on the road to recovery.
With the flu scare abating, the
residents of Circle are now facing
another menace in the form of high
water, the reports indicating that
the Yukon river level has reached a
very threatening height. The town
was inundated several years ago
during the breakup period, and the!
residents fear that another flood is i
about to swamp them. The situa- !
tion is the more grave because of
the weakened condition in which j
most of the people find themselves I
in consequence of the flu.
