HUBBARD Brown Bears Destroyed One Cache Containing | Gasoline, Food PILOT POINT, Alaska, June 21 Volcano Aniakchak is now put- ting on a mew eruption with eight of the Santa Clara University ex- | pedition camped on the steaming floor of the volcano. Frank Dorbandt flew the Rev. B. R. Hbibbard and the others there to spend 10 days. This ex- pedition will climax three years of study of the crater. BROWN BEARS DESTRUCTIVE SEWARD, June 21.—Brown bears have destroyed oné of Father Hub- |bard’s caches of gasoline and food near Aniakchak and this has ecaus- ed serious inconveniences. The par- ty is handicapped in efforts in gaining the crater. Caches were |made along the route and one was found to have been destroyed. Bears: "lwd pounded gasoline cans together |and bit through the tins depriving the party of needed fuel. Destruc- tion of food supplies has delayed the expedition’s research work.: Last year a brown bear routed the party from the crater.

JULIS JAEGER | | | | ON HIS GASBOAT Julius: Jaeger, aged 76 years,| ploneer Alaskan, died unexpected- ly' aboard his gasboat yesterday afternoon while it was off - Fish Creek at the north end of Douglas Island. His demise is attributed to heart disease from which he had |suffered two years. | Mr. Jaeger early yesterday after- | noon had left Juneau in his boat | to go ‘to Spakaia Harbor, in'Icy| Strait, where he was to be stream | |watchman for the Bureau of Fim-l eries. With him in the craft was| an Indian youth. Engine Trouble Develops When the hoat was off Fish Creek, which is beyond the Men- denhall Bar, trouble developed inl the engine, and the Indian boy undertook to fix it. The youth was affected by gas fumes from the| engine, .and Mr. Jaeger lifted the | boy to the deck and rubbed him to bring about his restoration. The exertion is sald to have fatally aggravated the aged man’s heart ailment. The Indian boy hailed a passing power boat containing a Japanese, en route to Sitka. The Japanese towed Mr. Jaeger's boat, which was | out of commission because of en- gine trouble, to the Douglas Island beach; and then took the Indian youth acress«to. theé Fritz Cove neau. Jdeger's boat until Donald Skuse of the Chatles W. Carter Mortuary, and Art McKinnon of the Reliable Transfer Company arrived to take charge of the body. Mr. Skuse dnd Mr, McKinnon motored from Juneau out on the Fritz Cove road until opposité Mr. Jaeger's boat and then reached it by taking a small power hoat to the Douglas side. Mr. Jaeger, ‘who was born near Detroit, Mich, came to Alaska in the days of the stampede to the Klondike. He was employed in the building of the White Pass and Yukon Railroad. He had been in Dawson, Valdez, Cordova, Seward and Several of the Interior camps. For the last 25 years he had lived in Southeast Alaska: For a while he was in Craig; but most the time he had resided in Juneau. He had served as Deputy United States Mershal and as Federal jailer in this Division. Stream Watchman Several Seasons For Séveral summers past he had been employed as stream watch- man by the Bureaut of Fishegies. Lately he had conducted a second- hand store on Main Street between Front and Second Streets. His home was at the corner of Main and Second. Mr. Jaeger is sur- vived by his widow. They were married in Seattle 25 years ago. The remains are at the Charles W. Carter Mortuary.
