LITTLE HOPE MISSING
MAN HAS SURVIVED
On November 27 the Pioneer pub
lished a, rumor from the Kuskokwim
region to the effect that a man was
missing from the Aniak under cir
cumstnaccs which pointed to the be
lief that he had perished. Last Sat
urday a letter was received by this
newspaper which confirms the pub
lished story, except as to the name of
the missing man, and gives the de
tails of the mishap which probably
caused the death of Oscar Boulet.
The letter states that on October
20 Boulet attempted to cross the
Aniak river in a poling boat. It was
the first cold day of the season, and
mush ice was running in the river.
Because of this he was unable to
handle the boat, and was thrown into
the water, and although he could not
swim, reached the opposite bank from
which he started.
Mrs. I). E. Stubbs saw the accident,
and ran down to the hank and talked
to Mr. Boulet across the river, which
was rendered difficult becouse of a
high, piercing cold wind that was
blowing. She inquired why he did
not start a fire and keep his wet
clothes from freezing. He replied
that he had no matches, and asked
j that she put some in a tin can and
tie it to one of his dogs and send it
across to him. Boulet also said he
thought lie would start immediately
for Bear creek, about twenty-five
miles away.
Mrs. Stubbs left Mr. Boulet running
up and down the bar to keep warm
and hurried to her house, some 200
feet distant, and put up matches ami
tea in a can with a tight lid, and then
ran up to Boulet’s dog house and un
tied his leader, secured the can to his
neck and returned to the river op
posite to where she had left Boulet
running to keep warm, but saw noth
ing more of him. She concluded he
had decided not to wait for the
matches, but had gone to Bear creek.

MORE PAY FOUND
IN NEW DISTRICT
FAIRBANKS—Although no details
could be learned last evening, word
was received from Brooks that good
pay had been found on Ester creek, a
tributary of the Tolovana river. Ihc
prospectors, who are working on this
ground, were known to have good
prospects, but it was not until Wed
nesday night that it was learned that
they had pay that would run fully $2
to the foot.
Ester creek is a tributary of the
i Tolovana river, on the right limit and
I flows into the larger stream at a point
i about fuor miles upstream from the
mouth of Livengood creek. Ester
creek runs parallel with Olive creek
I and is about the same length. Olive
1 creek created some excitement last
i
year when it was reported that good
pay had been located on it.
The news of the strike was brought
to Olnes last evening by the driver of
the Ringseth stage.—Ex.
