DRILLING REPORTS
Arrivals from the westward report
that drilling operations by both the
Standard and Associated companies
are still in progress although halted
for a while by a breakage of augur
stems. It is stated that the Associat
ed has attained a depth of 490 feet
and is still in hard formation. The
present depth of the Standard could
not be ascertained as information from
the field was hard to obtain.
DRAGLINE READY TO SHIP
The crew of men working on the
dragline excavator have completed
their work and on the departure of
the next freight for the north the
machine will be taken to the interior
to be used in taking gravel from the
Fairbanks pit, the material to be used
in ballasting the grade between that
city and Ne.nana. Three flat cars
were required to hold the various
parts.

Lit! SHIR EFFECTS
IFCi
lLv*>
The steamer Starr in addition to
supplying the westward people with
efficient service is on occasion doing
much good in lines other than trans
portation. This was exemplified on
the recent trip when but for the
timely aid of the vessel, Nick Han
sen, a fisherman of Unga, would in
all probability have been drowned.
According to eyewitnesses the Starr
had scarcely cleared the port ot Unga
lor Squaw Harbor when a driiting
power dory was sighted by Captain
! Johansen, the small craft evidently
being in distress and rapidly driiting
ashore. Running in as close as condi
tions would permit, the captain had
a ship’s boat lowered with a line
leading from the ship, to be used in
hauling the boat to the ship, and aft
er many trying moments Hansen’s!
boat was made fast to that oi the
Starr and his rescue from impending
death was accomplished. After a stiff
battle with the gale the crew and the
rescued man were taken on board. |
Hansen, with his dory, was taken
back to Unga.
CHAMBER LUNCHEON TUESDAY.
Members of the Seward Ghambei
of Commerce are advised to bear in J
mind the luncheon hour of that body |
at the Seward Grill tomorrow. A rev, |
matters of importance will come up l
