1000 negroes from the Eight Hun
dred and First Pioneer infantry
end performed the job in the rec
ord time of seven days, an ac-
complishment which was mention
ed in orders. In the dump at Mezy
he discovered 16 shells set with
time fuses and from the Fismes
dump he extracted 81 of the same
devices. In addition to removing
the danger at these points, he blew
up three smaller dumps.
1T was ticklish work, because
we never knew from one moment
to the next that we wouldn't be
blown into kingdom-come.' re-
marked Lieutenant Manager. I
guess the knowledge that those
fuses were set for January caused
me to work my crews overtime.
OF course I didn't inform the
negroes of the situation; otherwise
there might have been difficulty
in inducing them to remain on the
job
1.-THE shells containing fuses
were of ingenious construction,
according to the officer. The fuse
was worked by acid eating through
a piece of wire and the action of
the acid could be so regulated that
the 'doctored' shell would not
explode until certain time. Some
of the shells were timed to go off
as long as three months after they
were originally set by the Ger
mans, he said.
Lieutenant Manager gave high
praise to the men in the ammuni-
ton supply service. saying their
courage and devotion to duty could
not be surpassed.
When the fighting in the Ar
gonne was at its height the crew
on my ammunition dump worked
three days and three nights with
was to keep a supply of ammuni-
ton going to the guns and they
only stopped when they were
bumped Off or dropped in their
tracks from sheer exhaustion.
AT one time our dump was be-
ing shelled so continuously there
seemed little chance that ANYBODY
would escape with his life. Start
ing in the evening, the Smelling
continued without cessation
throughout the night. The Ger
mans had located the dump bv
means of balloon observation and
were bent on its destruction.
Shells fell everywhere and we
lived in constant expectation of
being blown to atoms; a single
shot that might send the dump I'D
in one grand explosion at any
moment
There were 135 direct hits on
the dump. If some of the shells
had not been buds l reckon l

err he continued They cracked
jokes at the expense of the Hun
in his futile effort to destroy the
dump and all the while kept a sup
ply of ammunition going to the
Americans up front
Commenting on the American
soldier in general, Lieutenant
Manager declared the doughboys
cheerful disregard of danger was
the factor which cracked and fin
ally broke the German morale.
They couldn't comprehend the
spirit which, led the Americans to
storm their machine gun nests, as
if it were the greatest sport in the
world-that going into action with
smiles, and joyous shouts the OFF,
Ger explained After open war
fare was inaugurated the morale
of the Hun became lower and low

pany of United States soldiers
come charging on in the face of
machine gun fire they knew that
some of the outfit would get
through and that a merry session
was in store for them if they re-
manned at their posts. The realiz-
alton that their opponents from
overseas didn't care a whoop about
danger and were spelling for
fight on any and all occasions fin

getting the road in shape for heavy | traffic and building relay camps.
 There will be two of these relay camps, one of them ten miles from Roosevelt, leaving a ten-mile stretch between. One of the camps is being constructed of logs, but the other will be tent affair, with room for sey- eral horses and place for hunks and kitchen outfit.
 Bartlett will use three four-horse teams when he starts hauling, chang ing teams at each camp, and in that way he expects to be able to land ten tons of ore per day at Roosevelt. An other team of two horses will be used at the mine to haul the ore down the hill and supplies and wood up to the mine.
 The fuel and timber proposition is a serious one, it being necessary to haul all the wood a distance of several miles, with the steep pull up the hill at the finish.
 Johnstone says that a lot of work has been done since Aitken took charge of the mine, especially in view of the fact that the mine is situated at the top of mountain, thirty miles from the nearest water where sup plies may be landed. The altitude is what caused Johnstone to give up his place. He did not mind the work, he says, but he could not get used to be- ing so high up in the air.
 Johnstone went into the district with Bartlett at about the time of the freeze-up. They went in by way of the Lloyd trail, which begins at Knights and ends at Diamond City, thirty miles from the mine This trail will be used considerably this winter in Johnstone's opinion, since it is the only feasible trail for freight ing with horses. When Bartlett went in it was necessary to construct number of bridges, and niggerheads caused considerable trouble, but there is sufficient snow on the ground now to make good going
 Bartlett plans to come out within a short time for supplies for the mine the outfit taken in hv hoat durinp tho fall already having developed a num-

ORE LEDGE AT
 KANTISHNA IS
 PROMISINCONE

The galena ledge which is being opened up by Tom Aiken in the Kan tishna district is showing excellent values as the work progresses, accord ing to Jim Johnstone, old-time Fair banksan, who arrived in Nenana re gently, direct from the Aitken camp where he worked for a time as black smith for the outfit. He mushed out by waaof the Toklat, accompanied by T. H. Reams and John Peters and his wife, and was seven days in making the trip from the mine to Nenana. They caught the train near the Jap roadhouse.
 The Aitken tunnel, which is an ex- tension of the old Quigley tunnel, is in distance of approximately 15O feet, Johnstone says, and they are now working on raise, to tap the shaft sunk earlier in the season. Twelve men are employed at the mine, di- Vlded Into two SnlItS.
 The ore taken from the tunnel is stored in an ore house short distance below the tunnel mouth from which point it is hauled down the hill to the creek, distance of about a mile and a half. The loads are small, owing to,the steep grade, but when the haul ing starts from the base of the hill to Roosevelt, the ore will move in larger quantities.
 Johnstone says he was not in po- sition to learn definitely the value of the ore being taken out, but he heard enough to convince him that it is very rich. And there apparently is a con- siderable body of it. Between sixty and seventy tons of the ore has been sacked ready for hauling to Roosevelt, where it will be stored until the open ing of navigation, and then shipped to an Outside smelter for treatment.
 The work of getting the ore down the hill to the creek is serious prob lem, according to Johnstone, which ul timately must result in the construc- tion of a tram. The freighting of the ore from the base of the hill to Roose- welt, distance of approximately thirty miles, is also big job, and winter proposition strictly. Ed Bartlett has a contract to haul the ore out and sup plies in, and he has been busy ever since his arrival there with his outfit,

 The Quigleys also are coming out soon, and Mrs. Quigley will continue on the States for the remainder of the winter.
 Commissioner Herb Wilson, who took in stock of general merchan- disc on one of the last boats and opened store at Glacier, has dis posed of his entire shipment, and will be out toward the end of the month for more supplies.
 Tom Aitken was expected to arrive at the mine from the Kuskokwim dis trict on the first of the month, and is probably there now.
 Johnstone says his party met num- Der of dog teams headed for the Kan tishna on prospecting and trapping ex- petitions, and it is his opinion that more gold hunting will be done in the district this winter than during any previous winter since the early Kan tishna stampede.
