(By “Babe” Hays, Cordova)
“May I take this opportunity of
thanking you on the behalf of the
“Goodwill Excursion” which has re
cently been conducted by the Seat
tle Chamber of Commerce and the
Young Men’s Business Club for the
many personal favors that you
showed members of our party. We
certainly missed you after leaving
Cordova. All the members of our
party spoke of the very fine feeling
that you gave them as strangers
coming into Alaska.” Darwin Meis
net, Seattle, Wash.
Like Mark Twain, Tony Wendler!
of Anchorage says the report of j
his recent death was greatly ex- 1
aggerated.

! CACHE CREEK HAS
i CLOSED DOWII HAD
i SPLENDID SEASON
WITH PLENTY OF WATER NUM
BER OF OUTFITS KEEP GO
ING ALL SUMMER
r
y
James C. Murray, big hydraulic
s operator on Cache Creek in the
Yentna River district had a very
favorable season with a good-sized
| crew of men and has three years
r j more of work under the present
fjpipe system, according to Tom
-1 Jones, well-known miner of Seward
jV.ho has been with the Murray op
erations during the summer. Mr
, Jones has just come in from Tai
] keetna, suppy point of the district
■ where mining ceased on October 6,
because of the freezeup. He leaves
by the next boat to join his wife
and infant son in Seattle, where
Mrs. Jones has been visiting with
her father. Mrs. Jones is also
well known in Seward, having
worked at Brown & Hawkins
j store before her marriage. Mr.
| and Mrs. Murray will be out in De
I cember for a trip to the States. |
| Murray has 12 miles of ground on !
Cache Creek, known as the old
dredging ground and he had a good
jwater supply throughout the sea
son, employing 15 men in the early
part of the season and six men
handling the work at the clme lie
has a six-mile ditch which as was
said will suffice for several season’s
work along his extensive pay
streak.
The next largest operation in the
district, Mr. Jones said, is that of
H. W. Nagley, U. S. Commissioner
at Talkeetna, who had Jack Low
den, an experienced hydraulic man
from Council in the Nome district
! in charge of a crew of six men on ■,
Falls Creek which empties into
Cache Creek near the Murray work- ,
ings. Nagley has also had a very ;
good season. j
Nick Balabanos, and three asso- j
ciates have had a fair season on the I
Bill Pineo ground on Peters Creek i
which empties directly into the J i
Yentna below Cache.
A1 Wolff worked alone on Alice j \
Gulch, a tributary of Thunder ' j
(Creek, another tributary of Cache. I
He operated his monitor alone and j
has made some money. Joe Crum- [
enasher was on Windy Creek but
found too many big boulders for
successful work. Monroe Kast was
operating on Poorman and had an
average season.
j Speaking of general happenings,
Mr. Jones reported the death last
Sunday of Mrs. “Micky” McCrae,
who ran a laundry at Talkeetna,
and was well known in the district
as well as in Fairbanks. She evi- !
dently succumbed to heart failure 1
as she was found dead in her wood- i
shed. She was about 55 years of j
age and had a son on the Outside. !
The body was taken to Anchorage
where funeral arrangements await
word from her boy.
The Road Commission sent a
crew of men into the Fairview
country this fall to put cables and e
other works across streams, giving ^
a fair trail of about 70 miles into |
the Fairview section where pros- |
pects are looking very good. The |
Commission is also putting in a re- c
lief cabin at the head of Spruce j=
Creek on the Cache Creek trail. |
There are many trappers moving in |
with prospects of a fine fur season. |
