STEEL NEARING
LYNN COAL MIN
SOUTH OF TOWN
Over Half a Mile of Steel Wat Laid
Yesterday; End of D Line Will
Soon Be Reached.
The rapidity with which the work
j of tracklaying can be accomplished
j with the aid of the appliances now
| in use was again demonstrated,
! when the steel gang, under Foreman
; Thomas K. Blakey laid 2800 feet
of track yesterday during the eight
working hours.
The end of steel yesterday even
ing when the steel gang quit work
for the day had reached Station No.
18254, leaving a distance of 12,600
feet to be covered to reach the
point where the D line converges
on the old location at Station No.
18138. The work done by the steel
gang yesterday was very good con-!
sidering the fact that they worked,
in a gale of wind which hampered j
their movements to some extent and :
made working conditions very un- j
pleasant.
From the point where the D line j
and the old location meet a distance j
of 6000 feet will carry the steel J
to Lynn’s mine at Station 18078,:
and it is expected that this will be;
accomplished in a few days more.'
The building of a spur track leading!
to the mine tipple will soon be taken j
in hand and it won’t be long before:
a large quantiy of this fuel will be j
j made available for the use of the
! Alaskan Engineering commission in
| the power plant and on the loco
motives.
On reaching the end of the D
line, a permanent siding will be put
in which will hold back the extension
of the road to the coal mine for a
day or so, at most.
A mile or so beyond the point j
where the old and new lines meet, J
| the road strikes the hill country
j and the roadbed is cut along the!
i slope of the hills, running almost j
parallel with the Nenana river for
, several miles- Emerging from the
| through cut near the A. E. C. store,
j known as the Russell cut, the road
bed is carried through a formation
of boulders and heavy gravel along
the slope of the hills, and a fine
view is obtained of the Nenana river
rushing swiftly by, about one hun
dred feet below the road.
The river is visible from the road
for several miles, when a wide
sweep hides it from view again until
ja considerable distance has been
: covered and it then comes into view
for a very short distance. From a
point about six miles beyond the
A. E. C. store at 35-mile, the road
runs through rather heavily wooded
flat country, striking the hills again
within two or three miles of the
old engineering camp at the Nenana
crossing at 43-mile, where the first
big bridge on the main line carries
the track across the Nenana river.
The grade is completed in every
detail for the entire distance from
the end of steel to the water's edge
at the Crossing, and also for a con
siderable distance after the river
has been crossed, toward the Lignite
coal fields.
The country in the neighborhood
of the Nenana Crossing and on to
wards Lignite is very pretty; there
' are roadhouses at the Crossing and
J at Lignite, and picnics and excur
sions should be among the possi
bilities for Nenanaites in the near
future.

LOADING COAL PAYS
SUBSTANTIAL WAGES
MOUNDS VILLE, W. Va.—Dip
ping and loading coal is a profitable
in addition to being an “essential”
industry during times of war, as
demonstrated by the record pay
:heck of $162.89 for 11 days’work,
iianded recently to Charles Fogle, a
local miner. In one day of the period
Fogle loaded 30 tons and 17 hundred
weight, earning $18.20 for etfflv
hours' work.
Frank Young, Sr., who had been
ill at St. Joseph's hospital, was able
to leave that institution. He is re
ported to be getting along very well.
