As a result of an accident to
the hoisting macchinery on 12 De
low Fairbanks creek, three men are
in the hospital suffering from a se
vere shaking up and bruises inflict
ed by a fall from the top of the
shaft to its bottom, a distance of
ill) teet. That they and two others
were not killed outright is consid
ered » miracle. ,
The crew in the drift, composed
of Win. Anderson, Mi-ke Kellich,
Berger Carlson, Klmer Johnson and
Victor Swanbeck, were being lowerid
to the bottom of the shait in the
bucj£»t, when, witout warning, some
thing gave way in the engine room
an the bucket and men rushed
downward to the bottom of the
shaft. With the exception of John
son all wet« rendered unccyiscious
by the fall, the cable uncoiling from
tb < uruni falling on top of them. As
so. u as he could collect himself
Johnson started to uncoil the cable
from around* his person and to £xtr>
rate h's unfortunate comrades from
the oositions in which they had fall
en. Several picks, which were in
the bucket and which had been new 5
pointed, were scattered around the
bottom of the shaft and that none
0' the men were severely injured
froia this source a!one is remark
able. I *! lit
John Swanbeck, who was at the
hoist at the time of the accident,
?t once gave the alarm and within
a .hort time a hand windlass was
ringed up and the men brought to
the surface. Medical help was tele
phoned for and an auto pressed in
to service tc bring the men lo town
O" an examination it was found thai
none of the men had' broken bones
although all of them had received
a severe shake-up. Johnson w-as
aole to be around town yesterday,
Pl- jnly show-ing the effects of the
Ml by his badly scratched face and
a place in the side of his Jaw where
one of the pick points had struck.
It will be several days before the
men n the hospital will be able to
be about again.—Fairbanks Citizen.

jGARlO HERDS
ALONG RIVER
MARVELOUS
The marvelous spectacle of thous
and of caribou or Arctic deer swim
mi rg across the Yukon river and
moving over the hills along both
sides of the river as fh- as the eye
could reach wag witnessed by the
people who arrived here 'a®t ni£ht
on the American government's dis- j
patch steamer General Jeff. C. Davis
j The caribou herds were enoounter* j
ed in the vicinity of the interna
tional boundary line, lying along tf
141st meridian,b etween Eagle and
Forty mile posts, captain Brgman.
master of the Davis; Dr. H. C.
Miller of the U. S. army service,
who Is euroute south rfom St. Mi
chael; Mrs. Miller and others had (
the pleasure of seeing the marvelous
sight. Dr. Miller says: '
"It is impossible for any person to
sav how many cariobu were in that
great herd. From familiarity in esti
mating bunches of cattle on the
ranges, I should estimate that at
one time we were able to see from
the d«ck of the steamer fully 4,000
to 5,000 of the animals. How many
had crossed and gone over the hills
during the days previous to our ar
rival and how many were yet to
come, no one could even approxi
mate, I imagine.
'Wo had great difficulty in navi
gating among the swimming ani
mals. For three hours at least we
were steaming upstream among
thom. The barge in front of the
steamer plowed down some of them,
but they seemed to bob up from be
neath afterward. The crew got
ropes and lassooed a dozen, and
dragged them aboard and slew them,
and we bad the finest of fresh cari
bou cutlets and roasts. The cap
tain would not allow anyone to kill
any more, as he deemed it would be
wanton destruction to take more
than could be used.
"The animals were congregated!
on islands in the rivers, along the
river bars and banks, and at every
available point. The bills seemed
alive with them, grazing and travel
ing slowly."
Others who were aboard report
tlie animals were traveling south
ward, and no doubt they comprise
the huge band' which treked north
ward across the Glacier trail forty
mil«»s west of DawSon during the
summer. Win. Berry, miner, who in
here from Glacier creek, says the
oariDou passed there going north
t<vc months ago, following Walker's
Fork toward the Dennison. One
man walked twenty one miles a
mong the moving herds before b
cou'' get through them, and many
others saw them. He says the
whole mountains seemed to be alive
and moving.—Dawson News.
EDISON GVIES DAWSON
- * GRAND"BOOST1
The Edison oompany's magazine
contain? a fine large ptaoto"engra
vure of Dave Williams' beautiful
nhv nograph parlors in 'Dawson, and
thr following fine writeUp:
Whatever you may think of the
Yukon region as a wonderful place
to live, with stfnllght twenty-four
hours of the day in summer, and all
th scenic glories Rex Beach talks
about in his novels, you'd hardly
pick it out as an ideal place to sell
lt*>e Edison, would you?
[ But Dave Williams doesn't ask
• for «uy better chance. In_ Dawson
! City, Yukon Territory, two thous
j ani miles away from his Jobber, he
I carries on a thriving business in
soUe of the fact that navigation up
tnere 's possible only four months
o' the year. He's a real Yukon en
thusiast, as' .well as a thorough
going Edison man. To hear him
talk you'd think no place where
you had to turn on th© lights to
read at midnight was good enough
sell EdLsons. Obstacles are bread
?nd cheese to this live-wire of the
North — he eats them up. We are
no* certain that he sells Edisons all
Iulgbt, but we don't doubt it at all.
In a oountry where they play
basfcbal' at midnight by natural
light you can do almost anything—
or, at least, Dave Williams can.
