HI FALLS GREEK MINE
Development work is progressing
rapidly at Mel Horner’s mining
camp on upper Falls creek. Last
week Mr. Horner took advantage
of Seward’s excellent weather and
completed the renovation of his
camp quarters at the mine.
In the work performed a layer
of heavy building-paper was at
tached to the exterior walls aug
menting a protective covering of
new roofing material recently laid
on the structure.
New flooring was installed. New
doors replace those recently des
troyed by porcupines which infest
the vicinity. Several new windows,
kitchen shelving and cupboard
complete the job. A new growth of
alders obstructing the trail from
the camp site to the mine was
slashed and removed.
More than 1.000 feet of tunnel
work extending through thousands
of tons of splendid free-milling
gold bearing quartz with high grade
streaks encountered at various in
tervals is already represented on
the ground.
Mr. Horner, a consistent plugger,
has inspired a number of prospec
tors to enter that field two of which
have recently located rich ground
adjoining his group of claims.
E. M. Polly, territorial tax collec
tor, was among those arriving to
day from the Westward districts
where he has been doing his annual
stuff.

FORESTRY OFFICIAL
PLEASED EFFICIENCY MEN
About two and one-half acres
each were burned over in last
week’s forest fires at Mile 27 V2 on
the Moose Pass highway, and at
Mile 24 on the Alaska Railroad, an
nounced Wm. Sherman, Chugach
National Forest supervisor, who was
a brief visitor in Seward Monday.
Some of the moss was three or
four feet thick, he said; deep on
steep side hills, the wind was blow
ing strongly and the days were hot
and dry, yet the fire fighters con
fined the fires to the small area
mentioned.
Mr. Sherman is particularly well
pleased with the results for three
reasons; the small loss, the effi
ciency of the men, and the fact
they handled the job so well even
though he was 50 miles away in
a different area of the forest.
Capt. Pete Sather, of the Nuka
Bay Transportation Co., is due to
arrive in port Wednesday from the
famous gold quartz camp.
