Alaskan, on Visit Here,
Would He Were in Sitka
"Give me a nice, comfortable tem-
?erature of about 40 below zero and
ask no more," says Jacob Bohle
ber, who is here on a visit from
Sitka and Fairbanks, Alaska. "This
heat is unbearable. I never saw
anything like it, and I'm anxious to
get back to good old Sitka, where a
man can breathe."
Bohleber left Omaha 17 years ago
for Alaska, where he has been ever
since. He is visiting his sister, Mrs.
Mary Harte, 4810 Chicago street,
and his daughter, Mrs. T. J. Burns,
Bemis park.
"I've felt 62 below zero up there
and didn't mind it near as much as
I have this heat of the .last few
weeks in Omaha. I'll have some
thing to tell the boys when I get
back."
Bohleber says most of the gold
seeking jn Alaska now is done by
drilling. They drill much as they
do for oil. When they find dirt
bearing gold in paying quantities
they sink a shaft and mine it.
