HJJK ISLAND
KODIAK, Dec., 6. (Special to the
Gateway)—Following the setting
up of the new saw mill imported
from the Outside by the Alaska Fur
Corp., for its big fur ranch on Long
Island, active lumbering operations
have begun for the cutting of be
tween 50,00 and 100,000 feet.
Fred Henton, who employes
horses and trucks in his drayage
and contracting business, has mov
ed horses to the island for the log
ging operations which should not
prove of difficult nature because of
the splendid stand of timber and
nearness to tide water. The mill has
been set up by Jim Flynn who will
probably ovrsee the sawing of the
timber.
The lumber is to be used in ex
tensive building operations on the
island for pens and feed ware
houses as well as additional dwell
ings for the workers of whom there
is now a considerable staff. The
Alaska Fur Corp., operations are
projected on a big scale running
into a half million investment for

CRANBERRY PORTAGE, Mant.
Dec., 6, (/P)—Col. C. D. MacAlpine,
president of the Dominion Ex
plorers Club, and four members
of the expedition lost for two
months in the North while on an
aerial prospecting survey, arrived
I in two airplanes from Stoney
| Rapids.
The last lap out on the jour
ney from Cambridge Bay, Vic
toria Island, was the most trying
ffnr the expedition. Colonel Mac
.Alpine came after they had been
| guided bv Eskimos to the south
side of Dease Straits and found
! open water between them and
the Hudson Bay post.
But eight miles of water sep
arated them and they were forc
’d to wait eight weeks before
| it froze sufficiently to cross. Fish
and game were scarce and the
cariboue had gone south. When
the party finally succeeded in
crossing the ice all of the food,
excepting a few frozen fish, had
been consumed.
