F. Bdfr ‘and his five passengers from Atlin to Ju- neau Monday getting a taste of the | country around Tulsequah. Pilot Barr in the AAT Bellanca reaplane ‘flew into Atlin from here with four passengers Sunday eve- ning, ‘making the flight up the Taku River in slightly more than an hour. He took off for his return flight to Juneau early Monday morning with | Ed Finlayson, John Enstrom, H. Biggers, Constable Harold Engleson and W. K. Clark as passengers. Though clouds were skidding by about 2000 feet overhead and a brisk breeze was whipping the bright blue waters of Atlin Lake, all seemed heigh ho for Pilot Barr as he winged | his way down the Nakina River| Pass. But shortly after passing southward over the judction of the| Taku and Inklin Rivers, a thick bank of rainclouds and fog Joomed ahead, forcing him down at Tul- sequah, where he and his passengers whiled' away the rainy time tilllate in the afternoo when the cloud | bank lifted and he was able to con- | tinue on down the Taku River, over Taku Inlet and swish into Juneau on a fresh tail wind, landing here i | SITKA COLD STORAGE TO GET DEED TO LAND A favorable report has been or- |dered by the House Committee on! Territories on H.R. 5859, the bill |introduced by Delegate Dimond, au- |thorizing the Territory of Alaska to itransfer a small tract of land to the Sitka Cold Storage Company. It appears that through some mis- | take in the description of the land transferred to the Territory by Act of Congress in 1934, when certain abandoned public grounds at Sitka were given to the Territory for use of the Ploneer'si |Home, this land—less than half an acre in area—was included in the transfer. The error was discovered later when it was found that a por- tion of the tract transferréd was {land which the Sitka Cold storage Company has possessed and occu- pied since 1913, and on which a part | of the company’s dock is built. In line with the recommendation | in House Joint Memorial No. 2 of the thirteenth session of the Alaska Territorial Legislature to correct this error, the Delegate has sought for enactment of the pending bill Ito transfer title of this land from {the Territory to" the cold - storage | company. § CARL M. FRANKLIN, U. OF A. REGISTRAR ARRIVES FROM SOUTH Completing work in connectioh with the University, Carl M, Fran- (klin, registrar and comptroller of the University of Alaska, arrived in Juneau aboard the Dorothy Alexan- |der and is scheduled to leave by PAA Electra for Fairbanks this af- ternoon. < Mr. Franklin has beén in the south on a combined business and pleasure trip, and stopped for a part of the summer at Forest Grove, Oregon, his former home. He also conferred with Dean William E. Duckering, dean of faculty at the University of Alaska, in Portland. A graduate of the University of Washington, with a master's degree from Stanford, Mr. Franklin has| been associated on the staff of the University of Alaska for the past three and one half years. He was originally instructor of business ad- ministration, before taking over the registrar-comptroller position. Mr. Franklin stopped overnight at the Gastineau Hotel. B S ON WAY TO STEWART John Enstrom and Ed Finlayson, who have been engaged in mining in the Atlin district of British Columbia for some time, arrived in Juneau yesterday afternoon with AAT Pilot L.

C., Aug. 1—(Special Correspondence) — Mining activity in the Atlin section of Northern British Columbia is reported at full Ipaoe this summer with all the older ydiggings in the Spruce Creek region working steadily and showing good ireturns. So far there has been no (spell of clear weather. Several new properties are being ,opened and there is considerable new activity on the scene of former ing activity in Northern B. C, is on McDames Creck, about 150 (miles east of Atlin, where a quartz Istrike made last year is proving |beyond all expectations. \mining in the McDames Creek re- ‘gion for the past 30 years. examining the ground last fall, Mc- |Leod White, Superintendent of the 'Boulder Creek working at the |Consolidated Mining and Smelting, Ltd., secured the properties on op- tion and drilling was commenced \this summer. | Sensational Declarations i Conservative reports on the Me- {Dames Creek strike say the grouhd is proving at from about $500° to $1200 per ton. More sensational |declarations stated that at one spot lore has been uncovered so rich |that the gold in it is visible at distances up to 60 feet | All ground in the region has been staked, following a stampede to the| section, but, so far, the best show- ‘ings have been found on the dis- icovery claims. A development com- pany & been incorporated with large capital stock and it is expect- eed that considerable work will be ;done on the properties next season. It is likely that Juneau will be the principal depot of supplies going| into the region, being the nearest‘ coastal point by airplane. 4‘ “Sandy” Smith Locates Malcolm A. “Sandy” Smith, of Juneau, and William Peel, formerly of the Cutter Tallapoosa, who went linto the Atlin section early this spring, are reported to have taken} over a group of claims on Discov- ery Creek and are expected to com-| |mence drilling operations in the near future. They contemplate a ishovel operation. Among the prop- erties they have under option are the Rasmusson claims Following the decision reachud by the White Pass and Yukon Route| not to operate their tourist hotel at Atlin, the Atlin Inn, this sum-| mer, and the cessation of operation| of the Iake steamer Taranhee, there| was a considerable dearth of sup- plies in Atlin this spring, airplanecs beifig almost the sole means of. transportation into the regions. Pbr‘ a time the situation was acute, but Was reliéved by the White Pass put- ting into operation a smaller vessel for freight only to connect with the railroad at West Taku Arm. The vessel now operated is for freight only, however, and the Inn has remained closed all season, while the Taranhee is out of the water, on the ways here. Such tour- ists as have made their way ih to! Atlin by air, however, have been more enthusiastic than ever, report- ing fine catches of fish and enjoy- ing excellent weather. Light rain fell at Atlin over this past week- end, the first in some weeks. t ¥ Sawmill Operates The Atlin sawmill is operating! steadily, though two large rafts of timber were broken up by a storm early this spring and lost, the shores of the lake being stiil thick- 1y strewn with timbers. The influx of men to the Atlin region is reported a little heavier this spring than for some time, but all are well occupied, and the TH LEETLE JANBIRD B. C.
