The two men were George 8. Dyer, super-| visor of drill work for the Atetic | Circle Exploration Company at and Clarence A. Misen-| Fairbanks Morse and Com-| pany representative. | Today, they are on.the Alaska, bound for Seattle and the States| for a vacation. | Dyer, who lived in Fairbanks| during 1926 and 1927 when he was | associated with the South African| Gold Fields, Inc., told of installing a new pontoon dredge on the Kli- walik. | “A new Bacyrus pontoon-type| dredge has been constructed and will be in operation next year. The‘ dredge is a portable affair,” he said, “and is yet solid. Sixteen | ns, each weighing 6,000 s, keep the dredge afloat,| y can be removed quite easily. pontoons were floated nine up the Kiwalik River from | iwalik to Candle.” The actual mining that was done this year by Dyer's company—just | newly formed with headquarters in Chicago—was hydraulic work. Drill- nd construction work occuplcq, The Mlsenhxmer had chugc of.,the installation of a 420" horsepower diesel engine for the same com- pany. The engine was built by Misenhimer’s concern. “The dredge is electrically op- erated by a diesel electric plant,” | Misenhimer sa ‘T also had charge | of the construction of a new steel | building, one of the finest on Seward Peninsula.” Both men agreed that the people of Nome are making a good come- back from the disastrous fire which wiped out two-thirds of the busi- ness district there recently. “No one seems out of work,” Dyer said. “This fact shows that the fire has not discouarged the people of Nome and I believe there is more activity in the Seward Pen- insula than has been seen for many years.” ——e—— CHAS B. M'RAE DIES AT HAINES Advices were received in Juneau on the Alaska of the death at Haines yesterday of Charles B. McRae, one of the best known pion- eers of the Lynn Canal section ns a result of heart trouble. He was about 70 years of age. Charles B. McRae, during the carly days of the Klondike rush was in the Atlin district and also Bkagway. He finally moved to Mud Bay and began ranching. Later he cntered the dairy industry at Haines. He disposed of this and en- tering the logging and wood bus- iness, the latter in which he was cngaged at the time of his death. It is said he helped more needy ! during his life time than perhaps any other man in the north. No one was ever turned away from his door and no one was ever per- mitted to suffer for want. A widow survives, four sons, all in Alaska, and a daughter be- lieved to be at Haines. A bréther, Hugh McRae, is employed in the car shops of the Alaska Juneau mine. SHOP IN JUNEAU!
