EYE TROUBLE BAD
Former Mayor Emory Valentine,
of Juneau, recently received a mess
age from Judge Wickeraham in
which he says his eyes are giving
him a lot of 'trouble and that it
probably will be necessary for him
to undergo an operation soon for
relief. He says he is partially.blind
at the present time.
When Judge Wiekersham was in
Nenana more than a year ago. his
eyes were a source of annoyance to
him. but the condition at that time
was not regarded as serious. It
would appear, from the message re
eeived at Juneau, that the ailment
has been growing steadily worse.

DEEP SNOW PUIS
SIOP10 MINING
AT HOI SPRINGS
Mining operations in the Hot
Springs district are being held back
this winter by an unusually heavy
snowfall, according to Leo Rodrigue,
who returned to Xenana this week
from a stay of several weeks in
the lower river camp. The snow is
so deep, he says, that it is impossi
ble for teams to get about in the
woods, with the result that fuel is
very scarce on several creeks, with
no relief in sight. Difficulty also
has been experienced in getting sup
plies to the more remote parts of
the district. There has not been
enough travel to keep the trails
open for horses, and dog teams now
offer the only source of relief. The
snow. Rodrigue says, covers the
ground to a depth of between three
and four feet.
George Rolke. who has been work
ing on the Bock fraction on upper
Sullivan, ran out of wood recently
and was compelled to suspend opera
tions. Some of the other operators
have been more fortunate, but the
snow will prevent the delivery of
much of the fuel needed for next i
summer’s operations.
Conditions generally are very ]
3uiet in the Hot Springs district itj
the present time. There is very i
little doing on any of the creeks.
*nd the towns have lost heavily in ■
population since last summer. About
the only incident worthy of mention
that occurred during Rodrigue’s
stay in the camp was the shooting •
of a cripple horse belonging to the
mail carrier. Deputy Marshal An
ders was prevailed upon to perform
the unpleasant execution, and the
■hooting caused considerable excite-.
ment. It appears the shot tired by i
the officer struck a glancing blow, j
causing the animal to stampede thru ’
the town with part of a stable door
dangling from the end of the haiter j
rope. The horse almost broke in
the front of Jack Mathews’ resi
dence and several citizens of the
town narrowly escaped being run
down before the frightened animal
was recaptured and effectually dis
posed of. The strange part of it
was, Rodrigue says, :hat the horse
could scarcely walk before the exe
cution ceremony started.
Rodrigue made the trip to Xe
nana with the Danny Green dog
team and claims to have made a
'record run up the river, cutting the
Seppala time several minutes. And
jhe could have done even better, he
) says, but for the heavy trail en
countered.
