BLAIR RETURNS FROM
 LONG HUNTING TRIP

Al Blair of Valdez, has returned from Gravina bay, where he has been trapping and hunting this spring in company with Nick Meckem. Mr.. Blair brought a month old grizzly bear cub with him which he cap- tured on the hills near his camp. The mother and another cub were killed by Mr. Blair, and the survivor tanned as pet While the little ani- nal had been in captivity but five days he was as tame as a kitten and clung to MT. Blair like a long lost friend. The sights of Valdez were new to him and for a time he was in frenzy of fear, making re- peated dashes at bystanders and the stray dogs. He is an intelligent lit- tie beast and quite playful, but has long claws and sharp teeth although but a month old
 Mr. Blair reports many ducks and geese breeding in the flats about his camp, and states that he saw at least 100 goats while on his hunting trips He killed fifteen bears this spring, a majority of which were black ones

VANDALS DO DAMAGE
 TO SHELTER CABINS

Shelter cabins in the hills near Ju- neau, erected for the purpose of affording refuge from the weather to parties on hunting or fishing trips, have suffered severely at the hands of rowdies who have wantonly de- stroyed the windows, doors, stoves and cooking utensils in the different places. Those who have gone up the various creeks this spring report the cabins have been wrecked and signs of wilful destruction are in evidence.

pulled up. The filling from the piers of the two bridges had been washed out, and from the abutments of three more. Three of the bridges are settling. A crew of men with a team were put to work by MT. Barrett to make temporary repairs, as no appropriation has ever been passed for these very necessary re- pairs on the only completed road in this section.
 Mccarthy creek ran the highest for several years last Sunday eve- ming, due to the bursting of an un- derground lake at the head of the glacier. The water raised six feet in very short time and continued for several hours.
The Cordova daily times., 1921-06-14

Returning from the Green Group by automobile, J. E. Barrett was ex- ercised in his mind as to the safety of the bridges against the heavy logs and trees which were being carried down and at Mile 6 bridge found a heavy jam. Oscar Bachman, who was also in the party volunteered to go down and chop out the debris, which he did, after first being fortified with a sling of ropes. He moved the logs and roots and was almost swept away before he could be

DAWSON OLD TIMER
 DIES AT PORTLAND

News was received at Dawson re. gently of the death of Edwin l.. Mercy, an old time Klondiker, who died in Portland, Ore. He is sur vived by a widow. MT. Mercy was 69 years of age at the time of his death. He was an engineer by trade and for a time was associated with the D. A. A. A. plant at Dawson.

We notice by the Cordova Daily Times that Colonel Gotwals, in an in- terview to that publication stated that the road over Sourdough hill was being rushed to completion, and would be finished by August 1. If this is so, they will sure have to get move on, for here it is the 11th of June, and this seasons work is not started yet.

BREEZY NEWS
 ABOUT D0INCS
 NEARBY CAMP
(From Mccarthy News)

MCCARTHY, June 11.-Ed Young game warden for this section, with headquarters at Chitina, arrived on the last train. Accompanied by Nels Tjosevig, MT. Young left this morn ing for the Chitina river country where he will investigate the game and feed question, submitting his re- port to the governor. No report cov- ering these matters has ever been made and the fact that the Chitina river country is now included in the hunting district for this section. makes it necessary for the govern ment to have full report on what game, feed and timber is available. MT. Young will be gone about two weeks and as he and Nels are good shots it is more than probable that they will come back loaded with bear.
 Messrs. Williams and Thim, who have secured the contract for the cutting of mining timbers for the Mother Lode Coalition Mines Co.,, are establishing their camps at the fourteen mile house. | MT. and Mrs. Trim and family moved out on Thursday. MT. and Mrs. Williams leave tomorrow.
 The mail for Chisana will leave early on Monday morning, June 13.
 Notwithstanding the fact that there were no funds to pay a school teacher at Chitina this year, the an- nual school tax was collected from it's long suffering residents. These funds will probably assist school somewhere else.
 Mrs. Pete Johnson has leased the building formerly occupied by the Mccarthy laundry, and it will be in readiness very soon.
 H. F. Andrus, of Yonkers, New York, was a Mccarthy visitor this week, en route to the Nizina where he will spend about three months.
 The many Chitina friends of MT. and Mrs. Pete Johnson are anxious to. see them established again in a new home, where they will be able to make another start in life, after the terrible loss they sustained by the recent fire. They sent the following contributions:

biggest mistake.
Should Georges again be matched
with Dempsey and the bout held in
