The workers are rapidly being de-

LAUNCH ARRIVES
FROM KANT|SHNA;
WATER LOW NOW

The Moody launch, with George
Moody at the wheel, arrived from
the Kantishna last night and will
start on the return trip tomorrow,
with another load of SUPPLIES. Moody
went into the Kantishna several
weeks ago, accompanying the steam
er Shusana and the Moore launch,
all loaded with supplies for the
Aitken outfit and others of the Kan
tishna district.
Moody reports the water very low
in the kantishna river now, and
while it is still possible for launches
to make the trip to Roosevelt, he is
not so sure about steamer naviga-
ton. The Shusana is now making
a second voyage to Roosevelt, hav-
ing left the mouth of the Tolovana
river several days ago, and it is the
belief of Moody that considerable
difficulty will be experienced in nav
igating the shallow stream.
The passengers arriving on the
Moody launch were Ed BROKER,
Jack Tobin and several others.
BROKER was picked up below the
Campbell place, where he was stalled
on the McGonagal launch. Moody
was also accompanied by his son.
Bertram. who is on his way back
to Fairbanks to attend school.
The trail from Roosevelt to Kan
tishna City is now in bad condition
Moody reports, the first fifteen miles
out from the river being almost i'm
passable, owing to the wet condl'
ton of the ground. Very little
more freighting can be done before
the freezeup, it is feared, but after
the snow comes the trail probably
will afford an excellent means of
transportation.
There had been no snow at Roose-
welt up to the time Moody left, but
ne ran into a snowstorm on the way
out. On the return trip the launch
will have about % tons of general
freight.

DIVINE URGING
AID Of CHURCH
TO WIN SERIES

CINCINNATI, Ohio, Sept. 22.--
Baseball is deserving of the sup
port of the churches, according to
Rev. Frederick Mcmillan, of this
city, who declared, in a sermon de-
livered here yesterday, that the
church should encourage and sup
port the great national game in ev-
cry way possible. The church should
be glad of the opportunity to slim
ulate interest in baseball, he ar
gued, because of the fact that it
affords healthful exercise to multi
tudes.
The enthusiastic divine has writ
ten a prayer in which he implores
the Almighty to give the Reds keen
eyes and grant them many runs, in
order that they may win the forth
coming World series, which will start
here on October first.

MOOSE ARE SCARCE
IN KANT|SHNA NOW

Arrivals from the kantishna re-
port a scarcity of game this fall,
due to the activities of native hunt
ers in that district. There are no
moose at all along the river, be-
tween the mouth of the stream and
Roosevelt, and not many close to
the diggings, very unusual con-
dition for that section of the coun-
try.
Instead of shooting game from
the doorstep, as they used to do in
the old days, the miners of the Kan
ishna are compelled now. to mush
long distances in search of meat
Upon arrival at Roosevelt recently
to join Mace Farrar, and Ed Brook
er, who are developing a galena
ledge, George Herington made q
trip up Birch creek in search of
moose, hoping to secure the win
ter's supply of meat before start
ing work. He was accompanied by
Tom Cook.
AS in all other sections, how
ever, birds are more plentiful in
the Kantishna this fall than for
several years past, and will help ma
terially to solve the meat problem.
