NEWS NOTES
There was a rumor around town
that the good steamship Dora would
be back on the westward run for the
October trip. Agent McDonald of the
Alaska Steamship Company thinks
that there is no foundation for this
statement. He says he has heard
nothing about the contemplated
change and believes that the Dora is
too small a boat to handle the west
ward run in either the winter 01 the
summer.
J. R. Worth has arrived from Seat
tle with half a dozen tine horses and
will make his home in this district as .
he believes the near future will have
lots of work for his fine animals.
Bill Sollers and L. E. Larder left
this morning for a prospecting trip in
the Moose Pass country.
John Stevenson left this morning
for the Skeen-Leehner property. j

would be sufficient to erect a tempor
ary building near the main building
or to move down the old building and
repair it. This latter course would
have saved the city thousands of dol
lars but, no, the suggestion of the
board elected to conduct the schools
was not worthy of consideration.

FORNANDER IS
HELD IN SWEDEN.
In a letter to Sam Godfrey, one of
the old Fairbanks boys and the dis
coverer of Ruby, Charles Fornander
writes from Stockholm, Sweden, that
he is tied up there indefinitely. He
went across the ocean last spring
with passports but owing to the fact
that his second papers are still in Al
aska, he was nabbed and held as a
prisoner for two days pending an in
vestigation of his nationality. Then
he was allowed to land in Sweden and
is virtually held there. He wrote to
Sam Godfrey to secure his second
papers from the court here—(News

“ PALACE JINGLES "
When once the streets are graded,
And this town takes on the air
Of a camp that has grown permanent,
Of a city that is “there;”
When the trail is clear to Ke'nai Lake
Then we’ll charter Ashland’s car,
And you’ll have a picnic as the guests
Of the Famous Palace Bar.

We have the goods for the picnic*,
And swimming parties too;
If you like a drop of Sheroowd Rye,
Or that famous German Brew,
Just “talk, don't walk" we do the rest
And it is not too far,
In 40 winks we land the goods
From the Famous Palace Bar.
