SALVAGE WORK STOPS
ON STEAMER MARIPOSA
Salvage work on the Mariposa,
wrecked a year ago last November,
has been abandoned for the present
year. Two loads of salved cargo
have been sent to Seattle, and the
three scowloads of Kennecott cop
per ore and other salvage, including
the donkey engines and other ship
machinery, were recently towed into
Ketchikan. The Washington Sal
vage company is in charge of the
work, and its representatives say
most of the vessel’s cargo has been
saved. It is proposed to take the
boilers and engines out of the vessel
next spring. The work will be re
sumed in May.

The end of the season of naviga
tion is near at hand, the last sail
ings for the upper Yukon from
N'enana being scheduled for the
early part of next week. As nearly
as can be ascertained by Agent J.
H. Scott, of the American-Yukon
Navigation company, the steamer
Tanana will be the last boat to
make connections for Dawson, start
ing down river from Chena proba
bly on Monday or Tuesday to meet
the Yukon, which is now at Dawsor.
gathering up the last of the upriver
freight. The Tanana is now on the
way to Chena with the tow of the
steamer Reilance and should be here
tomorrow.
The Alaska is also enroute up the
river, having left Gibbon last night
with two barges and a heavy deck
load of freight, much of which is
for the Alaskan Engineering com
mission and local merchants. The
boat should arrive here sometime
Saturday and will probably be in
port eight or nine hours discharging
cargo, after which one of the barges
will be taken to Chena. The Alas
ka will then return to the upper
Yukon on her last voyage, followed
by the Tanana. The plans relative
to the movement of both the Alaska
and the Tanana, however, are sub
ject to change.
The Seattle No. 3 is also enroute
up the river, being due here to
morrow with considerable freight.
The Reliance was at Gibbon this
morning, but it is not known here j
what the future movements of that ,
boat will be.
BILLY COUTTS JOINS
STAFF AT N. C. STORE
The clerical staff at the North
ern Commercial company’s store was
increased today by the addition of
Billy Coutts, who, since his arrival
in Nenana more than a year ago.
has been associated with the Con
hill store, where he was in charge
for a considerable period, during
the absence of Mr. Coghill in Eu
rope.
Mr. Coutts- is a veteran in the
mercantile business, having taken
up that work when he was only 13
years of age. And during- the
many years he has lived in Alaska
he has held responsible positions in
many of the Northern camps. He
knows the trade thoroughly and en
joys a wide acquaintance among the
oldtimers of the country.
NEW TEACHER ARRIVES
FOR KOKRINES SCHOOL
Among the recent arrivals in Fair
banks is Miss- Catherine Kane, who
reached the upper town yesterday
on a Brower stage, enroute to 'Kok
rines to take charge of the Gov
ernment school at that place. She
probably will take passage down
river on the next boat out of Fair
banks.
Miss Kane has taught school at
Shusitna during the past five years
and comes to Fairbanks direct from
j Anchorage, where things are boom
| ing, she says, as a result of the
I approval of Matanuska coal by the
jnavy department and the prospect
of the establishment of bunkers at
the railroad town.
