FORESTRY OFFICIALS
ARRIVE ON CHIU
NEW BUREAU VESSEL
ONE OF THE FINEST LOOKING
GOVERNMENT BOATS EVEN
SEEN IN THIS PORT
On its maiden voyage to this port
the new Chugach National Forest ves
sel “Chugach” Capt. E. M. Jacobsen,
arrived at an early hour this morning
from Cordova headquarters. On board
the handsome little boat were W. J.
McDonald, forest supervisor; L. C.
Pratt, assistant supervisor; Charles
Goodall, owner of the Cordova Lumber
Company; Rev. Kent, of the Cordova
Episcopal church. The forestry offi
cials will make a brief tour of inspec
tion of this district of the forest, Mr.
Goodall is making a business trip to
Alaska Railroad headquarters, and
Rev. Kent will also visit Anchorage.
The Chugach will remain in port un-!
til the party’s return. Thor Hofstad of j
Wrangell, is chief engineer, and S. C.'
Mitchell, cook.
The boat was built by the Lake
Union Dry docks Company at Seattle
last winter and w*as brought north to
have the engine installed at Ketchikan
this summer. Mr. Jacobsen supervised
this job and was later joined by L.
C. Pratt.
The vessel is one of the largest of
•the service in Alaska, being 60 feet
long with a 14 foot beam. It is
equipped with a 75 h. p. Atlas-Deisel
engine, capable of doing nine knots.
It carries 1,000 gallons of deisel oil,
providing for a cruising radius of
! 2,000 mile3.
A Delco lighting system and an
Areola heating system provide the
for eight. In the bow is a four berth
, light and heat for the vessel.
There are sleeping accommodations
stateroom and one berth in the pilot
house. The engine room is back of
the stateroom, next is the salon and
the galley is in the stern. The pilot
house is on the top deck.
All interior fittings are neat and
attractive and the main salon is very
roomy. It has ample lockers and space
for work. One of the excellent fea
may be reached without going outside
tures is that every part of the boat
of the cabin. Although destined for
utility, the boat is as comfortable and
well fnished as a yacht. It will be used
for official'cruising on Prince William
Sound, Cook Inlet and even as far as
afognak, but Cordova will be its home
port.

TIOS. KKLEf. VALDEZ
OLDTIME1, LOCATES HERE
Thos. Beasley, oldtimer from Val
dez, and veteran mining man of that
region, was among the arrivals on the
cableship Dellwood last evening. Mr.
Beasley, who is a welcomed addition
to the local citizenry, will be employed
as janitor for the cable and head
quarters office.
This is his first trip to Seward since
1906 and one only needs to talk with
him for a moment to realize Seward
has gained an ardent booster. He was
amazed at the growth and the fine ap
pearance of the city. Residents will
soon become acquainted with him, for
he envariably wears one of those ever
lasting smiles.
His mining properties in the Valdez
region, which are numbered among
the best of that rich section, may soon
be disposed of for it is said he has a
couple of deals pending.
