HERI5Y LETTER F
RAMPART HOUSE, January 11—
The Indians at Rampart House are all
well at present. They have had a splen
did season so far as the country is
alive with caribou. The caribou were
here all summer and the natives put
i up enough dried meat to carry them
through the winter ,and since the win
ter caribou have been here in thous
ands, are in splendid condition.
The Indians had a great time here
at Christmas and New Year’s, feasting >
and dancing. The ball opened on the '
night before Christmas and was kept
going until January 8, and only stop
| ped when the three fiddlemen played
! out.
It is too bad we have no school ]
teacher here, as there are over thirty I
children here and about 22 who are of j
school age. We have a fine school!
house, but it never has been in use
yet for that purpose. We also have a
very fine church, nicely lined inside
! with beaverboard, but it has been lock-;
I ed up for three winters. The Indians
| cannot understand why the country up
i here has no school teacher or minister
' after the great promises that were
made to them.
j Last fall Archie Linklater and fam
ily returned to their home here; also
] William Bruce, Ben Kusse and Peter
! Moses from Old Crow. Peter Moses
j has built a cabin on the river bank,
in front of the church. Peter went to
. Herschel Island with Sergt. Thorne,
I arriving there December 6.
Captain Klinkenberg passed thru
| here a few days before Christmas on
his way to the States from Victoria
j Land.
Mr. Hall and Mr. Godsall, of the
Hudson’s Bay Company, at Hershel
| Island, are here now, on their way out
I to Victoria.
The winter so far has been the fin
est ever. There was no snow until the
third of November, and then only a
few inches ,and the thennometei fiom
| 6 above to thirty-two below, except for
three days when it reached 48 below.
There will be no furs from Old
Crow flats this year, as there are no
rats, and, consequently, no mink or
j fox, but, fortunately there are lots of
caribou. There are a great many foxes
this year on the river and some of the
natives from Rampart House who
were south nearly to the fishing
branch of the Porcupine, report quite
a few signs of fur over there, and
there were caribou all the way. The
natives are now getting ready to pull
out to their trapping ground, most of
them across to the fishing branch, to
come down the Porcupine in the spring
time. They have been delayed a great
deal on acount of no snow and so much
meat out that had to be hauled in.
The Indians report that quite a lot
of wolves are following the caribou.
Siwash Dan came in yesterday with a
I load of meat, and he saw eight wolves
; in one band. They were right among
i the caribou. What a pity the Yukon
government does not pay a bounty on ,
wolves, imagine the damage this one
band of eight wolves will do in one
year. The prize offered by the Yu
kon government for the greatest num
ber of wolves will do absolutely no
good. The natives here, when told of it
said, “No good; nobody can kill fifteen
wolves in one season.” And they are
right.
KETCHIKAN SCHOOL HOUSE
IS PROGRESSING RAPIDLY
The work on the new $150,000 school
house at Ketchikan is progressing rap
1 idly under the superintendency of the
Warrack Construction Company. The
forms are now going up for the con- j
Crete walls and everything is now !
cleared for constructive work. Mr. i
Warrack is to have the building ready !
for occupancy by the first of October j
and he is striving industriously to i
make good.
Aleak in a barge loaded with sec
ond grade Premier ore, while loading
at the Stewai't wharf a few days ago,
cost the company the good sized sum
of $25,000, according to unofficial re
ports. The loss was due to the ore
barge springing a leak after being
loaded with about 1000 tons of ore
concentrates destined for the Granby <
smelter at Anyox. Efforts to check
the water failed and an attempt was ;
made to beach the barge on the shal- 1
low tide flat south of the whaft but j
before it could be done the barge at- i
tempted a head-end dive, dumping the \
ore into the channel before righting ;
itself.
