SOMMERS PLANNING VISIT
TO ANCHORAGE DISTRICT
Territorial Mine Inspector R. J.
Sommers, who returned to Fairbanks
Sunday night on the steamer Tan
ana from a tour of the Tolovana
district, will leave for the coast
within a short time to complete his
rounds of Alaskan mining districts.
He plans to go to Anchorage from
Fairbanks, where he will make a
careful survey of the Willow Creek
district and other camps in that part
of Alaska where mining is now in
progress.
The inspector did not visit Hot
Springs this summer, nor will he
have time to look over the Ruby,
Iditarod and Nome sections. The
reports received from the lower riv
er camps indicate that considerably
less mining than usual is in progress
this summer, and it is the opinion
of Mr. Sommers that conditions do
not warrant an inspection at this
time.
FAIRBANKSANS UNITED AT
QUIET CHURCH WEDDING
St. Matthew’s church, Fairbanks,
was the scene last night of a quiet
wedding, the principals being Ella
Klewin and Homer Amend, an em
ployee of the Tanana Valley rail
road. The ceremony was performed
by Rev. H. H. Lumpkin, with Ser
geant and Mrs. Durwood Hocker the
only attendants.
Following the marriage, the newly
weds and their witnesses repaired to
the Model cafe, where a wedding
supper awaited them. The marriage
took place at nine o’clock.

tune to break his arm in the open- |

the homeward voyage brought thej
!aggregate donations to $245.
The amount subscribed by the'
Fairbanksans is in addition to the j
sum of $131 which Nenana spec
tators at Sunday's game contributed,
and a list now being circulated
among local businessmen is expect
jed to bring Nenana's contribution
jup to a very substantial figure.
The injured player, whose arm !
was broken just above the elbow, is
getting along splendidly at the Com
mission hospital, a report from that
institution today stating that he is
feeling quite himself again.

ON CREEKS OF
BROOKS CAMP
_ i
The scarcity of water throughout;
he Tolovana district will cause a
material shortage in the season’s
output unless rains come soon to re
lieve the situation, according to re- <
ports just received in Nenana. The
rreeks are very dry just now, much
dryer than they have been at any I
previous time this summer, and min
ing on a number of claims is prac-;
tically at a standstill in conse
quence. A number of dumps which
were taken out last winter have
not yet been put through the boxes, i
because of the scarcity, and there
is some pay dirt left on the ground
from the winter work of 1917-18.
The Tolovana district, like many
of the older camps where the hill
sides have been robbed of their
timber for mining purposes, has no
natural means of conserving water.
The rain runs off the hills as fast as
it falls, and the miners must work
fast while it lasts. Sometimes there
is an over-abundance of water, fol
lowing a particularly heavy down
pour, and when this happens, the
extra water goes to waste. It is
like pouring water on a tin roof,
without a rainbarrel to conserve the
water for a dry day.
The mining men of the Tolovana
are looking forward hopefully to a
rainy season later in the summer to
pull them out of the hole, and,
should their hopes be realized, the
output of the camp probably will
compare favorably with that of last
year. Otherwise, the yield will be
considerably below normal.
READY! READY!
For cleaning your auita? Sure. Al
ways ready. Bring 'em in. Charges
and work are both right—at

PENNINGTON IN TEXAS;
PLANNING LONG STAY
Telegraphic adtdces received in
this city today from George W. Pen
nington indicate that Nenana's rep
resentative in the last territorial
legislature, who has been touring
the States since the close of the
legislative session, will not return
to Interior Alaska for at least seven
months.
The wire was addressed to John
H. Scott, secretary of the N'enana
school board, and suggested the
sender’s resignation as treasurer of
the board, in view of his contem
plated continued absence Outside.
The wire was sent from Wichita
Falls, Texas.
Mr. Pennington does not say what
he is doing in Texas, but as Wichita
Falls is in the neighborhood of
Burkburnett, it is presumed that he
is viewing the oil excitement at
close range.
The steamer Yukon is scheduled
to leave Fairbanks at five o'clock
and the boat should reach N'enana
about midnight.
Billy McCourt. Klondiker, who
went overseas from Dawson and
fought with the Princess Pats, has
the distinction of having "gone over
the top” twenty times. He escaped
without a scratch.
