Mail contractor Eric Johnson states

ed to that point for the purpose of se
curing supplies and says that one and
,11 speak highly of the prospects in the
Kovuk section. The men with whom
Johnson discussed the new strike are
\l Wilson. Gnr| Jepsen and William
Raglan all of who are more or less well
known Johnson says that he was told
that all indications pointed to a per
manent camp being established and
the prospects were fair wherever
found. It was also stated that the pay
apparently extended into the benches
which still further adds to the out
look. As an indication of the value of
the pay gravel. Jepsen said that he had
taken ten pans from different dumps
and obtained an average value per pan
of six cents The gold is described as
heavy and. although of a rather dark
color, is apparently of good quality.
Between thirty and forty men arc at

get a team in tbe neighborhood of Gol
ovin or Chinlk because of their teeing
requisitioned tej carry supplies to the
new camp which is located on Dime
Creek.
Paul Kjegstad is reported to bp on bis
way in from Bluff having met Johnson
night before last near Chinik.
Jeehnson gives the distance from
Chinlk to Dime Creek as between
forty and flftv miles by the present
trail. As the Kovuk is navigable hv
light draught bents to a point some dis
tance above tiic mouth of the creek
on which the pay lias been found. It
is probable that it will be the route
most used during tbe summer season.
The mouth of the Kovuk is about
seventy miles from Chinik and the dis
tance up stream to the strike is esti
mated at about forty-five miles.
Johnson states that he made the
journey himself with a peewer se-ow

INMACHUK NOTES
OF GENERAL INTEREST
Special Correspondence.
Deeriug, Alaska, April 30, 1915.
For a part of tills month the soft
weather caused some of us to think
that the final thaw was on. However,
the sun made little impression on the
clean snow banks; about the buildings
and dumps the thaw was considerable.
But everything has stiffened up; the
nights are quite hard and little or no
thaw during the day. Trails are still
in fine shape and it is expected that
freighting will continue for quite a
spell yet. Operators continue to pile
up pay dirt and expect to keep at it
for a considerable time yet, before it
gets soft enough to force them tu
cease.
Frank Aquino and John Pet rich have
several holes to bedrock already and
have found encouraging prospects.
Some more strangers dropped into
camp recently In search of a summer’s
Job. There is quite a big bunch wait
ing now.
Bourn, Courtney, Grant and Bashaw
have tine dumps stacked up and ex
pect to Ret out several thousand more
buckets before the water runs.
Kmil G. Pasteries has had a lot of
supplies sent up to the Black Gold this
spring. Tfe will not operate until next
winter, but summer hauling is so ex
pensive. and as he will start opera
tions before next winter's sledding be
gins, he considered it policy to he fore
handed with most of his supplies. Other
operators are doing the same, particu
larly as regards fuel and other goods
that will not perish during the sum
mer.
Cool and Black are increasing their
force and rushing the work so as to
get out as large a dump as possible
before the breakup.
On the 21st inst, was pulled off a dog
team race for men, that we are con
fident has never been excelled else
where for the stamina and earnest
ness displayed by both drivers and
dogs and the uncertainty of the re
sult till the finish. Teams passed and
repassed each other during the run.
There were five entries, each driver
had to return with the same dogs he
started with. Distance twenty miles
up river and return. Harry Carman
reached the home stake first, making
the run in three hours and fifty-six
mmu|teg. Adolph Kseholt arrived a
few minutes later. Stanley, Douglass
and Okuda came bunched in the order
named. Charley Okuda’s team on a
trial run a few days before made ’the
f1 ! *_ 1 ' -»
'trip in less time than the winner of
the race, hut on the race run they ap
peared to lie doped and landed last
Joe lodge was director of the race and
lhe judges and timekeepers were Harry
Courtney, Kmil (5. Pasterls and A. S.
Kopner. Stanley and Okuda each
had a dog play out, and returned with
them on the sleds.
After the finish of the race, John
Grant, a spectator, slipped and fell,
twisting tiis right leg in such a manner
as to sustain serious fractures of the
hones above the ankle. He was Im
mediately removed to the hospital
where the resident physician and sur
geon, Dr, Schussler. attended the in
juries and Mr. Grant is now resting
easily. However, the injuries are of
such a serious nature that he will pro
bably he laved up for several months
Mr. Grant is one of our lnmachuk op
erators and lias been engaged ail win
ter in piling up a dump of fine pay
His partners are still prosecutiing the
work.

To have the pains and aches of a

of Alaskan readers.

la grippe laid me up for five weeks. Mv
back got very painful, lame and weak
I rend about Doan’s Kidney Pille and
got a box. They fixed me up all right
Whenever I have taken cold on my
kidneys since, 1 have used Doan’s Kid
ney Pills and they have brought good
results."
