The light draft steamer Reliance,
, which was despatched to ^he Kan
Jtishna district early this spring to
;haul galent ore for Tom Aitken, re
sumed to port this morning, having
•been compelled to abandon the work
.after having made two round trips
j between Roosevelt and the mouth of
the Kantishna river. On the third
i trip up stream the Reliance reached
ithe mouth of the Bearpaw river,
.about fifty miles below Roosevelt,
,but could go no farther on account
! of low water.
j Approximately 333 tons of ore,
'which was delivered at Roosevelt
from the Aitken mine during the j
; winter, was hauled to the mouth of
the Kantishna by the Reliance on i
.the two trips made. And about as j
much more is still at Roosevelt. I1
.waiting to be moved. The ore was .
loaded on the barge Montana at the
mouth of the Kantishna, and will !
be shipped to a smelter in the <
States, by way of the lower river. j]
Advantage was taken of even.-|l
possible means of saving time byji
those in charge of the Reliance, but;:
the work was necessarily slow be-il
cause of handicaps encountered :
along the river. It was necessary 1
to establish wood camps, for in- <
stance, and it was not always possi- \
ble to have fuel available when re-j \
quired. A steady lowering of the '
river level also caused some delay.!
especially on the second trip, and'*
finally stopped steamer navigation |s
altogether, above the Bearpaw. 1
Andy Livingstone had charge of:^
(the Reliance as master, George Fin- a
ger acted as pilot. Walter Scott as j1
purser, and Jack Bellerby as mate
j Two moose were seen along th<
river on one trip, one in the wate
and the other standing on shore, un
afraid of the invading: craft. Duck:
and geese were very plentiful earli
er in the season and quite a numbei
of cranes were sighted. Rabbits ant
grouse appeared to be very scarct
along the river.
Up to a late hour this afternoor
it had not been decided what furthei
use would be made of the Reliance.
Navigation on the Kantishr.a river
is definitely off until rains furnish

FAIRBANKS BOYS
MAY PLAY LOCAL
IEAM ON FOURTH
According to information received
from Fairbanks today, the ball play
ers of the upper town are giving
favorable consideration to a propo
sition that they come to Xenana
for a game on Sunday, July 4, in
consideration that the Xenana team
will return with them to the upper
town for a game there on July 5.
The proposition was discussed by
Walker Blakey, of the local team,
who returned from Fairbanks today,
and Manager Charles Beam, of the
Fairbanks team, but no decision had
been reached at the time Mr. Blakey
left for home. The matter will now
be considered by the Xenana or
ganization, and perhaps something
definite can be announced within
the next few days.
Partial arrangements had been
made for a visit of the Fairbanks
team on June 20, but that trip has
been called off by the Fairbanksans
because of preparations that are be
ing made for a game at Fairbanks
on that date, for the benefit of the
school gymnasium.
It has also been learned that the
proposed visit of the Fort Gibbon
team has been called off, because
of the issuance of an order requir
ing the soldiers to be at home on
the Fourth for special inspection.
•They may come up the river later, I
i but it is not known when they can '
t
j tret away.
; ^ ante R. McDonald, who left for
the lower river on the launch Peer
dess several days ago. has reported
from one of the river stations that
jthe army town has a very strong
team, and he warns Fairbanks and
N'enana to be prepared for a hard j
tight when the soldiers meet them, j
j He saw the Gibbon boys in action
i at the post.
