jthe creeks very high.
! Kimball and partners are hy
! draulicking on Fall Creek. Mat
! Hamburg and partners are on
iDollar Creek; they also are hy
j draulicking. A1 Wolf has a hy
> j draulic on Thunder %reek; Ruby
f; Hammerslee is on Alice Gulch, a
l tributary of Tliundre Creek. Har
l per and Murray are hydraulicking
^ on the J. c. Muray ground on
Cache Creek, mining on the Pine-o
l Bar.
' Adolph Trarkey is one mile left
of the creek from him; he has
l a small hydraulic plant. George
; Anderson and wife are on the
: .head of Nugget Creek working on
j quartz. Clarence Sullin is hydrau
• j licking on upper Cache Creek, and
: Hans Erickson is one-half mile
above him on Cache Creek. Jack
Duval and partners are working
on quartz on Peters Creek, and
Nick Balabano has a hydraulic
on upper Peters Creek.
Henry Peters and Dick Francis
are working on Peters Creek at the
mouth of Cottonwood Creek. Chris
Hammersmidth, is hydraulicking on
the bench on Bird Creek. By the
way, Henry Peters, Bill Gadikin,
and Chris Hammersmidth were
the discoverers of the Cache Creek
camp. They poled a boat from
Tyonek up the Susitna to the
mouth of the Salitna River, then
up the Salitna and Tagasetna
Rivers to what is now known as
Home Lake, and then packed
across the summit on their backs
to Bird Creek, where the first pay
was found.
Hammersmidth is working on
the first claim he started in the
camp. Frenk Jenkins is hydrau
licking on Willow Creek, a trib
utary of Peters Creek. The steam
shovel on lower Peters Creek broke
its main drive shaft and had to
be taken to Anchorage to be fixed;
it is too early in the season to tell
how boys will do financially this |
year, but everyone seems to be in j
good spirits any way. Mail ar-!
rives once a week, anywhere from j
the 3rd to the 10th.
| Mrs. E. D. Lee of Talkeetna runs j
| the pack train and has the mail
' contract.
j There is no use for anyone com
| ing here looking for work for there
is plenty of labor here now and
| they are all at work; most of them
l are old hands that have worked
: on the creek for several years
and they stick until the freeze-up
in the fall.
A canoe was noticed Friday be
side the local depot. There is no
truth in the report that the rail
j road is going to equip the gon
■ dolas with such craft.
