OUTFITTING OUR SPECIALTY
Northern Commercial Co.
The work of laying steel north
from the Tanana river on the Fair
banks branch line of the Govern
ment railroad is progressing steadi
ly under the direction of Foreman
T. K. Blakey. The gap between
the Xenana and Happy ends of steel
is lessening at the rate of more
than 2,000 feet daily, which means
that trains will be running between
the Tanana river and Fairbanks
within ter. weeks, if the work con
tinues at the present rate.
The Blakey track gang was
scheduled to reach Mile 425 at quit
ting time this afternoon, which rep
resents a stretch of 10 miles of
track north from Camp 415, the
base of operations on the north side
of the river. The Blakey gang is
maintaining a daily average of steel
of 2,000 feet, and frequently that
distance is exceeded. The gang laid
2,300 feet on Thursday, which is
considered a splendid day's work,
in view of the fact that the work
is being performed under difficul
ties incident to the use of narrow
gauge supply cars and the lack of
track-laving equipment.
Track-laving on the Happy end
is progressing less rapidly, owing to
the fact that there is no regular
gang employed at that work, and
to the further fact that grading
operations have been delayed. There
are, however, about twelve miles of
rails from Happy Junction south,
including the five miles laid during i
the Riggs regime to supply firewood j
to Fairbanks.
There is a steam shovel operat
ing at Mile 449, about three miles;
beyond the end of steel, on the ^
Fairbanks end, and a force of about j
fifty men engaged in getting the
grade ready for the rails, which are
now accumulating at that end rap
idly.
The American ditcher, which was!
used for a time during the early
part of the season to supply ma
terial for the grade on the Xenana !
end of the Fairbanks line, has been
abandoned for the present, owing
to the greater need of rolling stock
for track-laying operations, and to
the fact that the operations of the j
ditcher were hindered by frost con- j
ditions. Xo attempt is being made j
at surfacing, and it is considered ,
probable that none will be done this j
season. By the time the ends of
steel are connected, the ground will
be frozen and the grade will be
sufficiently substantial for such traf- 1
fic as may be required.
The distance between ends of
steel on the Fairbanks line is now
approximately 26 miles.
WM. IRELAND TAKING
TENAKEE TREATMENT
I
Wm. H. Ireland, former well
known resident of Interior Alaska,
is now temporarily located at Ten
akee, Alaska, where he is taking
hot baths for the cure of rheuma
tism.
In a letter to George Kennedy,
the former Nenanaite says that the
hot water of the Tenakee springs
is doing him considerable good and
he likes the place.
The baths are operated by a man
named Schnider, who has been there '
for 20 years, and, in addition to a
number of cabins for the accommo
dation of those, taking treatments,
he has a 'general merchandise store
and other interests which have made
him wealthy. The cabins represent
an income of $500 a month. The
water has a temperature of 106 de
grees.
There being no further work in
sight for the Brown hoist just now,
the busy m4|f^ne has been awarded
a lay-off until such time as it may
again be needed.

jfrom Dawson at midnight Thursday,

for Fairbanks, 80 tons for Tolovana,
120 sacks of second class mail, of
! which 30 sacks are for Fairbanks

onel Lewis, of the signal corps, and
i 14 soldiers for Gibbon. Colonel
, Lewis is accompanied by his wife
