COMPLETED ON
NENANA FRONT|
NEMAN A, May 20.—(By mail.)—
Now arrivals at Nenana this year will
be able to get off the steamers on as
fine a dock as there is on the Pacific
coast. Piling has been driven for sev
eral hundred feet along the waterfront
—the whole filled in with riprap and
covered with gravel to the depth ot
many feet. A spur extension has been
run along the waterfront as tar as the
dock has been constructed and the
locomotive crane is now busy taking
gravel from the river*bed in the im
mediate front of the dock and filling
in behind, the whole making a struc
ture that will last for years against
the ravages of the ice.
“Skipper” Rotch is actively en
gaged in getting his fleet in shape for
the opening of navigation. The fleet
this year will consist of the Midnight
Sun. the Gibson Girl and the Sunbeam,
together with the auxiliary scows, etc.
Rotch will be in charge of his old
standby, with Sam Dumbolton com
prising the crew, cook and mess boy.
