HIGHEST WATER IN EIGHTEEN
YEARS AT TALKEETNA
The highest water of eighteen
years, as near as white men can re
member, and from word taken by
Chief Nikolai, and from eighteen to
two feet higher than it has been for
the past five years, was experienced
during the week ot July 12th in lal
kcetna. Several homes have been
Hooded, and the bridge across the Tal
keetna river was washed out, as a re
sult. Chief Nickoli predicted this flood
a year ago, telling the residents that a
Hood would occur the first part of Sep
tember, '1)17, missing it cnly by two
months.

WATER FRONT AT NENANA
IS BEING IMPROVED
NENANA, (By Mail).—Piling for a
double railroad track along the dock
is now being driven. After the track
laying is completed the whole is to be
filled in with gravel. The track will be
lower than the wharf, making it pos
sible for any kind of freight to be
wheeled from the wharf directly on to
the flat cars as they stand on the
track, thus saving time in freight
handling.
A boom derrick on the dock is now
being arranged for. This will be of
material assistance in unloading boats
and barges and loading freight on cars
from the dock. It will soon be in op
1 erat ion.

RAILROAD NOTES
All of the cargo of the barge Bar
racouta, except two cars of lumber
ami the balance of the rails, has been
j discharged.
The frame work for the entire
freight warehouse is up.
The roof on the depot is being com
pleted today.
Activity about the machine shop is
increasing with the demand for more
speed in construction work.
