Ben Benson’s fox farm on Guyushak
Island, which lies between Chignik
and Kanatak, were shipped to Seattle
on the steamer Victoria the first of
the week. Mr. Benson is raising blue j
'ox only, the red fox pelts having i
been purchased from natives.
Mr. Bensen, who is a pioneer of j
Alaska, has been on the island for six
years, and is specializing in high
grade fur. His dark blue, pelts al
ways command the highest prices on
the fur market. Next fall he proposes
to purchase a number of fox from Jas.
Collias, on Elizabeth Island, for breed
ing purposes.
Mr. Benson is just another resident
of the westward who contends there
never has been another skipper in the
world like Capt. O. A. Johansen, com
mander of the S.S. Starr. He doubts
he emphatically stated, if any other
captain would drop anchor off the fox
island for a two-hour period for the
sole reason of finding out how he and
his wife were making out in their
lonely vigil, for it had been many i
months since the captain had seen |
them, but that is just what Captain
Johansen did on the recent return trip
from the westward and it was fortun
ate that he did, fortunate for Mr. Ben
son in that he had been suffering tor
tures for many months caused from
a stone bruise on the bottom of one j
of his feet. He knows not from what J
it started from but he first began to
notice the bruise eight months ago
and since it has grown worse, stead
ily.
Following his arrival in Seward he
went over to Anchorage, where he ex- j
pected he would have to undergo an
operation and have the bruise cut out.
He planned returning to Seward in
time to make connections with the |
steamer Starr on the vessel’s next!
trip west, March 8, Monday.
J. J. Chisholm, wholesale broker, re
turned to Seward this morning from a
business trip to the Tacoma office of
the West Coast Grocery Company. Mr.
Chisholm’s home and headquarters are
in Anchorage.
Wolfe Simon, Anchorage clothier, !
following a three-months' business trip !
to the States, returned this morning
from Seattle on the Alameda.
