steaded just east of the Silver Fox
ranch and built a cabin. The old
Nichols homestead which had run
out, and which lays just north of
the Fox Ranch was restaked again
this week, and will be improved.
McKinley Park has the most con- !
sistent radio reception of any place j
in Alaska outside of Point Barrow, j
Floaters whose homes are out- j
side, but come in for the summer j
to drive gravel trucks and work on \
the road in the Park, are headed
for Seattle and points south.
The bridge gang, in the charge of
Capt. Gene Norton, who are work- j
ing in the Park, will be in this :
week. This will close all road work
for this season with the exception 1
of a small crew who will get out
piling on the Toklat river.
Mary E. Thompson, of near Sun-;
trana, has taken up a homestead j
of nearly 80 acres, also a lease on j
grazing land one mile square
______. — .
The Healy River Coal Corpora
tion suffered a heavy property
damage by the recent high water.
Besides about a mile of railroad
track washed out, practically all
their loading spurs were damaged,
and two were completely washed
away. The heavy 33 foot rails lay
bent and twisted on the river bot
tom, mute evidence of what water
will do when it gets busy. Two bents
of the tipple were washed down
steram, and an old locomotive type
boiler was washed quite a ways
down stream. A steam pile driver
and a large gang are busy making
repairs. Mining has been resumed
after a three weeks shut down and
a 12 car coal train arrives at the
surface every 20 minutes. The first
freight to reach the mine after the
break pulled out 50 loaded coal
cars
The high water on the Healy
river floated down thousands of
tons of cannal coal from the Frank
Manley mine, some of the lumps
containing enough coal to last a
small family all winter. A number
of people who live along the river
are busy sacking up their winter’s
fuel.

from the last clean up on his placer
ground with 115 pou(nd poke of
gold dust. Joe Gagan washed out
one $50 nugget from his ground,
and found others of $40, $20 and
many smaller. A little further to
the North a gang has been working
all summer putting in a hydraulic
plant to v/ash the gold bearing
gravels. Capt- Gene Norton has his
eye on a piece of placer ground that
promises well. The Grant and
Neal McCall hard rock properties
in the Park both show good high
grade silver-lead ore. All of which
doesn’t speak too bad for a region,
that a government bulletin once
said “had no minerals of economic
importance.” Besides in our back
yard, so to speak, are the largest
coal mines of the North. A man
who had a gang working all sum
mer obtaining placer samples has
gone to New York with them to
show, and next summer we may
have a bunch of wealthy tycoons
from the East, mushing around in
nickers, undies, and fine raiment.
