INMACHUK NOTES
Special Correspondence.
DEERING, Alaska, Juno 29.—Our,
section Is Just now getting some falrj
weather, but the tremendous number of
mosquitos prevents our getting much ^
pleasure from the mild sunny days. ]
We need lots of wind to hold the raos-!
qultos down. The power boat Arctic
and the mall boat Silver Wave got In
today. They were held back a day by
storm. It feels good to he In touch
with the world again. Our winter
operators are all cleaned up and many
pokes are afflicted with a swelling.
Some of our boys are In town now re
ducing that swelling.
Bill Rashaw, one of our fortunate
operators, expects to make a trip to
the old home this summer, mil has
been many years in Alaska, and only
now feels that he has wealth enough
to enable him to go out and see the
folks.
Sam Mngids, one of the proprietors
of the store here, returned on the
Arctic. Sam got married while on the
outside and brought his wife In with
him.
Supt. McCulloch. I>*lng tn great need
of some certain supplies, sent his team
to the coast. The river crossings were
too high so the teamster could only
take a very light load and travel on
the tundra.
At the urgent request of some of the
up river camps, Frank Knapp took a
light load up of some sorely needed
supplies.
James Black brought down a good
poke of dust extracted from the "Black
Gold” claim.
Supt. J. H. McCulloch, of the F. V
Co. reached hereaoverlund from Nome,
on horsehaek, about the middle of the
month. He kindly brought our letter
mall across with him which would
otherwise have been compelled to await
the opening of navigation.
Johnny Bell, erstwhile Inmachuk
skinner, who went to the outside last
fall, also returned overland.
H. Fries, dredge operator, arrived
per Arctic today. Mrs. Fries accom
panied him. lie will get his machine
tuned up Immediately.
Summer work Is in full swing. Work
on our road has not vet started. We
hope It will begin earlier than last
year. The tundra Is very wet yet and
]
hauling over it would cut it up badly.
However, the river crossings arc hardly
negotiable and only a couple of trips
have so far been made and they were
forced by urgent need and light loads
taken and the crossings avoided.
Thos. Madden, winter manager for
the F. M. Co., was In town the other
day on business.
Our tine school house has been torn
down and the lumber saved and is
awaiting shipment to the Kobuk sec
tion.
Harry Bourn is in town with the
largest load of gold thnt lias so fur
been received In the spring from any
one camp.
Henry Coffin, of the Kiigruk, came
oyer to see the boats arrive.
Trig Berg, one of the constructors of
the II. Fries dredge, is back again for
ttie summer.
Tom Roust came down river with a
big fat poke. He will go to Nome with
the Arctic. His wife and sister in law
will accompany him. The Indies will
continue on to the outside. Tom will
return here.
Ed. McClure has taken over the man
agement of the Seward Hotel. He is
an experienced hotel man and the ex
cellent reputation of this hostelry will
he maintained.
Tommy Hnse, erstwhile chef at the
Seward, will have charge of the cuisine
of the Deerlng Mining and Dredging
Co. for the summer.
Prospector ft. E. Fitch has purchased
n resident on a hack street and lias
moved It onto the avenue where lie Is
fitting It up in fine style.
Dr. rtcploglc expects to put the i
Eskimos to tearing down the school i
house in a few days by order of the j
Board of Education. The doctor is
fitting an oomiak with a motor for use
as a tow boat.
We are informed that John Bell, on 1
of our freighters, who went to Hie out- ;
side last fall, has arrived in Nome I -
the Victoria and will he liuel. with r
before long. He will probably tirin':
over some more horses.
