FIRST OF RIVER
FLEET AT MILE

The river boat Marathon, lending
the Alaskan Engineering Commis

COLD SNAP KILLS
SHEETS INSIDE
FAIRBANKS.— (By mail.) — The
May cold snap may have been hard
on human beings in general, and it is
not yet entirely over, but it was not
as hard on them as it was on the early
crop of mosquitoes, according to men
who have arrived in Fairbanks from
the hills. The report is to the effect
that the mosquitoes, which came out
in the usual large size and in c’ouds
heretofore unknown in the spring of
the year, were frozen up when the
cold snap hit the interior, none now
being in evidence to the traveler on
the trails or to the prospector or woud
chopper dwelling in the hills.

NOTES
Employes of the U. S. railroad who
were anxious to go in the engineer
corps to be sent to Europe will be
interested to know that the first regi
ment of railroad men for this purpose I
has been enlisted at Chicago. The
regiment bears the title of “Third
Regiment Railway Engineers U. S.
A., and includes 800 experienced men.
B. Nichols of Anchorage has been
appointed official time inspecter on
the central division.
H. R. Gillingham and D. W. Bridges |
of the commissary force at Kern creek
have resigned and will leave for the
outside on the U. S. A. T. Crook on
her next trip.
Ben Nygren, the veteran Beluga
fisherman of Peluk, in the Seward
peninsula district, has made arrange
ments to ship a quantity of the fish
this summer to Seattle for food. He
declares that there is already a mar
ket established there among the Jap
anese residents, and as soon as other
people learn of the toothsome qual
ities of the white whale the market
will rapidly expand.
CREST OF FLOOD
PASSES TALKEETNA
The flood on the Susitna is report
ed from Deadhorse to,be receding. The
crest passed Talkeetna during the
night.

It is estimated that 2,000 people
have arrived at the head of Cook in
let from the outside and other places
in Alaska since navigation opened this
spring. At least one-half of these
remained in the town and the remain
der have gone to work for the com
mission or the various mining com
panies or taken up homesteads.
Save Baking
Expenses
Why not make a saving when
you bake those days? You can
by using
Crescent Baking Powder
Costs half the
price of the old
fashioned cream
of tartar kind and
raises the dough
better.

—hacl to sink a shaft to make a test. Now he docs his testing
with a portable drill quickly and economically.
Hob-nailed footwear for miners was the rule, too—until The B. F.
Goodrich Company made rubber boots and shoes with soles that Outwear
Steel. Miners everywhere are finding that they do not have
to half-sole these wonderful boots and shoes—'‘Hipress”
soles outwear the hobnails themselves.
These boots are MOLDED—just like the k
famous Goodrich Automobile Tires—INTO
ONE SOLID PIECE. They can't peel, or crack, |
or leak. “Hipress” is pure white in color and
has a “RedTine 'round theTop”tr distinguish
it from all other footwear. Look for thaf “Red /
Line” because only “Hipress'' Boots and Slices \
have soles that are tougRer than steel. i
