WINTER OF MISSING MEN
| The winter of 1930-31 probably
will go down in history of Alaska \
as the “winter of missing men”,
according to the Wrangel Sentinel.
Farrow and Davis are missing
. from Petersburg and several others
| men are missing under mysterious
circumstances in Southeast Alas
ka. Albert Anderson of the gas'
| boat Ceylon was reported missing
| near Kindergarten Bay in Octo- j
| ber; John Wickstrom disappeared!
, from his boat near Ketchikan and j
was never heard from. John Mar- j
i shai, a fish buyer of Ketchikan i
was found murdered on his boat
|; The number of reindeer in!
Alaska today, Is but one-fifth of
the total number wilich Alaska j
affords in grazing area. With aj
million reindeer at present it is
estimated that Alaska can afford
| grazing ground for 5.000,000
| reindeer.

GREAT CMP FIND
III LAKE DOROTHY
Prospecting bred real men in
Alaska as well as in other early
day mining countries and “Sheep
Creek Bart” and partner Louis
who explored the hills adjacent
to Lake Dorothy were of that
tribe, in the opinion of Wendell
Dawson, hydro-electric engineer
in charge of the stream inves
tigation in Juneau for the Cam
eron and Zellerbach interests ac
cording to the Juneau Empire
Mr. Dawson, who has just re
turned from a week at Speel riv
er and Dorothy creek studying
stream guaging records, revealed
for the first time the discovery of
a 35-year old camp on the shores
of Lake Dorothy, which he made
last summer.
It had been made under shelv
ing rock, loose rock gathered from
nearby shaping the walls. In it
was the boat the men had used.
On it were the names ‘‘Sheep
Creek Bart,” and “Lieuy,” and two
dates “June, 1894,” and “Septem
ber, 1894.” Under another boulder
closeby were found two finely
carved paddles, and two others
not so well finished. Except for
the stem of the boat hewn out
of native jackpine, which exposed
to the weather, had rotted out,
the boat and -ars were in well
preserved state.
No mining opera: ms were ob
served near the lake but that
I
i was apparently the mission of the
j two oldtimcrs, Mr. Dawson said,
j He discussed his find last fall
| with George Bach, Taku Harbor
J rancher and oldttmpr, who recall
j ed that two men had visited him
| about the summer of 1894 and in
(vited him to come over to their
| camp and see “our lake.”
He did not know either of them
I personally, and so far no other
j Juneau resident has recalled them,
, although it is posvsible that both
i are known to some of Juneau’s
I older residents.
