COOK MASTERS
CRAFT UNAIDED
IN INLET GALE
BOAT BREAKS FROM MOORINGS
AT SELDOVIA DURING
HEAVY STORM.
COOK ONLY ONE ON BOARD SHIP
- #
With No Knowledge of Gas Engines
or Navigation, Chef Struggled Ov#r
Machinery Until He Mastered Sec
rets—Gets Back Safely.
SELDOVI A, Sept. 24. —Mastering
the secrets of a marine gas engine,
with no instructor, save necessity,
while speeding rapidly to sea in a
storm-swept craft, was the experi
ence of the cook aboard the gas
boat Hudson, owned by L. C. Busch
mann.
The cook was,alone on the Hudson
when the boat broke away from her
moorings at the Seldovia dock during
the early morning hours and proceed
ing to sea with the tide, aided by a
stiff wind. Some hours later the
cook awakened and was amazed to
find himself alone in the boat, with
an engine he knew nothing about,
and the shore line a faint streak in
the distance. '
Upon his return to port the cook
declared to the populace of the inlet
town that the experience had enabl-1
ed, or rather compelled him to ac
quire a practical and thorough know
ledge of gas engines, obtained dur
ing a seven-hour effort to start the
Hudson’s engine. He is now con
vinced that any gas engine will func
tion if the engineer hold his neck
and left arm in the proper position.
RIVER STEAMERS
WILL HIBERNATE
Steamboat service on the Yukon
river will be suspended lor the win
ter w: h the return of the “Yukon,”
which left Nenana Wednesday for
Dawson on her last trip of the 1925
season. This is the word received by
Noel W. Smith, general manager of
the Alaska Railroad. Mr. Smith stat-1
ed also that both the “General J. W.
Jacobs” and the “General Jeff Davis”
are heading for Nenana to tie up for
thewinter. The “Jacobs” is expected
to arrive. Monday, (today) and the
“Davis” a day earlier.
The river business during the past
summer showed a great improvement
over that of 1924, Mr. Smith said. It
was estimated that more than 165
passengers were carried by the “Yu
kon” during the season, the increase 1
being attributed in no small meas
ure to the greater tourist travel.
The White Pass and Yukon Co.
boat on her last trip to up-river
points is carrying an unusually large
supply of oil and gasoline, according
to Mr. Smith.
