NEW VEIN SHOWS
HIGH GRADE COAL
AT END OF LINE
_
j High grade coal in sufficient quan
j tity to warrant development on a
'very substantial scale has been en
countered in the workings of the
Healy River Coal corporation at the
end of steel, south of Nenana, and
steps are to be taken immediately
to put the mine on a shipping basis.
The coal is the best uncovered in
this district thus far, the vein has
a thickness of seven feet, and work
ing conditions are ideal.
J Tha company has been at work
on the property for a number of
months, driving a tunnel into the
hill to tap the vein. The main
tunnel is 250 feet long, at the end
of which there is a crosscut eighty
odd feet in length, the vein being
exposed at the end of this crosscut.
The intention now is to curve the
'main tunnel so as to avoid the ne
cessity of making a sharp turn in
j hauling the coal to the mouth of
the mine.
i Ernest Peterson, one of the mem
jbers of the company, who is direct
ing the work at the mine, arrived
I in town on Friday with samples of
the coal, and says there is enough
of it in sight to keep them busy
for two years on the present level.
Mr. Peterson went to Fairbanks on
Saturday.
Colonel Steese, chairman of the:
Alaska Road commission, visited the j
Healy River mine on the occasion
of his trip out the line several
days ago, and told a representative
of The News upon his return to
town that he had been very agree
ably surprised at what he had seen.
He was particularly impressed by
the substantial manner in which the
mine has been opened up, the tim
bering of the main tunnel being of
a most thorough character and in
dicating stability and progressive
ness behind the enterprise. The
coal looked good to him also.
It will be impossible far the com
pany to attempt to market the coal
immediately, because of the gap in
the railroad at Nenana crossing, and
it is probable that no shipments will
I be made until the Nenana river
! bridge is restored to use. This
work, it is believed, will be taken

FAIRBANKSANS VISIT
HILLS TO SEE HERDS
Hundreds of Fairbanksans au
toed out the creek road toward
Fairbanks creek yesterday to wit

that section of the country, and
they were rewarded by a sight that
is not often obtainable even in this
country, where caribou herds are
common. The hills were fairly cov
ered with the animals, and it is
said that many of them were
brought to town to replenish lar
