CHATIENDA IS NAME OF
NEW TOWN IN CHISAN.
Chsana, Sept. 11—S<«rln?lng up al
most in a night, a division of th
camp in the Chisana district ha:
been named Chatienda (pronounce*
Cha-tend-da), and the new towi
has grown at a tremendous rate
About twelve cabins are alread com
pleted, sixty are well under way
and fifty more are under the firs
steps of construction. The most de
sirable sites are already taken ant
the spot which two weeks ag<
was a timbered wilderness, now fair
ly hums with a sound of axes ant
the noise of building.
A meeting of the miners was can
ed Tuesday afternoon, the fire
assembly since the strike, and Net
Hill was elected recorder by tti<
miners. There are now two records
i„ the district, one for Woodro*
and the second for Chatienda.
new appointment followed the dm
satisfaction over the removal o
the recorder s office to Woodrow, oi
Wilson creek.
The removal of the office fo »
ml the departure from the distric
of Judge Morgan, who had servec
the camp in a fair and iuipar ia
manner, miners say, both as recor
er and commissioner.
Judge Morgan and his wife '<>1

the indignation of the miners.
trip to Woodrow practically mean
an all-day hike, for the town is six
teen miles away.
The new town of Chatienda wa
started by Chitina and Fairbanki
men. who decided on the flat, leve
plat of land about seven miles fron
j the mouth of Johnson creek,
j They immediately star'ed the ere«
S Hon of cabins preparatory to th
! coming winter, and were quickly to
| lowed by dozens of others lroni a
I parts of the diggings.
I V petition for a postofflce ha
i been sent to Washington, a pic

ed a roadliouse and saloon is unde
construction and Chatienda is est at
* llshed as a permanent town unles
' the diggings should prove to be .11
absolute failure from the stand
point of the gold seekers.
The new town site is below th
gold diggings and is protected fron
the winds. There is a heavy growtl
of spruce trees to ward off th<
l'urv of the winter storms.
A great deal of attention is pait
to the laying out oi the town. Al
though the streets are as yet thickl;
strewn with logs and trees, the cab
ins are built with regard to streets
The lots are 50 x ISO feet.
Oscar Briedman, hotel proprietoi
of Cordova, Chitina and other points
who has a road house at the Chit
istone river, arrived in camp last
week with twenty-four horses load
" cd with provisions. These he re
J tailed at from $1 to $1.50 a pound
\ He left for McCarthy and expected
5 to return in two weeks with forty
S head of horses. It is understood
? that he intends to build a road
j! house and store here,
a Ed. Turk, another packer, arriv
a ed at the diggings about the same
S time as Briedman, and sold the few
! provisions he had at about hall
the price Briedman demanded
: Turk's rates were the most reas
onable at which food and supplies
were offered since the strike. He
^ charged about 50 and t>0 cents a
pound for flour and sugar. He will
enter the country again with anoth
er outfit of supplies. All trips in
to the diggings in the future are
more or less uncertain, as the weath
er may lef.ve the trails impassable.
Hundreds of tons of provisions
are at the head of the Tanana,
awaiting teams to transport the sup
plies into the diggings. lTntil the
i ran rroezcs over there prouaDiy;
will bo no shipping from that point.
There Is no reading matter what
ever, generally speaking in camp.
There are only a very few maga
zines and newspapers in the Chis
ana. Newspapers two months old
1 are treasured and passed from hand
' to hand,
1 Mail delivery Is uncertain. Let
ters possibly reach those "outside'
' to whom addressed, but this is a
■ most optimistic view of the situation
Letters are eagerly received, It goes
without saying. There is no offi
cial mail carrier, and mall intrust
' ed to some busy packer, who is on
his way "out" probably is returned
when the packer meets a bunch of
horses and returns.
McCarthy is as yet the nearest
postoffice, 120 miles from camp.
Fairbanks is 400 miles away ana 1
Dawson 320 miles from the camp. y
1 Men are arriving daily from var- <
kious points, most or them being old £
■ Alaskans who are acquainted with
the hard winters of the North.
Five hundred are expected from
Fairbanks with their winter outfits, j
and these men will undoubtedly lo- j
■ cate in the new townsite ]
The gold seekers preparing to
1 winter here are mostly men of :
strong hearts, human, with records
■ of kind deeds and generous actions.
They are rough in manner, but
• gentle as women, with a direct
• frankness of speech and honesty of
■ action and purpose.
The real Alaska "sourdough" ie
• greatly to be admired. Only men
» of fortitude could weather the win
• ter that confronts them. There i«
> a possibility of the thermometer
• falling lo a point CO degrees below
zero, with a further hardship of a
1 possible shortage of provisions
There are no outside world comforts
1 in the Chisana. It will be one co*i
1 tinua] struggle to get enough to
eat and keep warm.
Of clothing one only asks that it
? protect from the cold; of cabin,
that it keeps out the snow and wiad
