UN OLD DISTRICT
Road Commission Will Complete
Road From Yukon to Wast—
don Creek
To look after road improve
ments that are being planned for
the Circle district, John Joslin,
of . the Alaska road commission,
left on the steamer St. Michael
recently for the Yukon settlement.
It is the purpose of Joslin's visit
to ascertain the amount of work
that will be necessary to complete
the stretch of roadway to be built
and inquire into the possibility of
assistance from the miners and
prospectors in that district.
In speaking of the work, John
Zug, in charge of the work in the
Fairbanks section, stated that the
amount of money to be expended
in the work has not been decided
upon as yet. The road from Cen
tral house will be pushed through
to Miller house, and it is prob
able that 15 miles of new road
will be built. A now road was lo
rated between Ihe two points dur
ing 1907, but the freighters and
others who traveled between I ho
two places have made use of a
poor road through Ihe flats. It
may bo possible, according to Mr.
Zug, that this old road will bo
fixod up to moot Ihe requirements
of tho operators in that vieinily.
THE TRAVELS OF A BISHOP
LEADS TO STRENUOUS LIFE
( Continued from page 1}
the Tanana was made in good
time, as the little gasoline launch
is capable of steaming as swift
1 a current as many of the large
stern-wheelers. Fourteen hours
were consumed in making the
run from Nenana.to Ghena.
In Fairbanks the bishop and his
parly were given a reception in
St. Matthew's Church, at which
were present most of Ihe promi
nent people of the inland metrop
olis.
It is I he intention of Bishop
Rowe and Archdeacon Stuck to
leave early Thursday morning for
the upper Tanana, into a region
that has not yet been navigated
by gasoline craft of any descrip
tion. The bishop is uncertain
whether Hie boat has sufficient
power to make I lie trip to Tanana
crossing, Hie destination of (he
party, but the attempt will be
made, however.
At. Tanana crossing it is the!
intention of the missionaries to j
establish a mission and school,
one that shall prove of lastingj
benefit to Hie natives, by prepar
ing them to meet the changed
conditions of life. The natives of
that serlion are in much need of
help, inasmuch as the fur "Wearing
animals have been practically
wiped out, taking from them their
principal means of support.
Owing to the high utage of wa
ter the party were not able to pro
ceed far and were compelled to
return to Fairbanks.
Archdeacon Stuck says that he
has not given up the trip to Tan
ana crossing, and will try it lat
er in the season when* there is
lime to make the run. For tin1
present lie does not believe that
any boat on the river, gasoline or|
steam, could have navigated Hie
Tanana as it was the other day
when the Pelican was forced to
turn back. Not only was it the
swiftest, current that the Pelican
has ever faced in all her wander
ings oil the Yukon and its tribu
taries, but a continual string of
driftwood was streaming down the
river as the water rose and lift
ed mass after mass of the old
logs from the several islands. In
most places the Tanana was three
miles wide.
