to the effect that R. G. Dunbar and
others had recovered $100,000 in gold
from the wreck of the steamship Isl
ander is believed to be without found
ation. The Islander was wrecked off
the south end of Douglas island, not
far from Juneau, and the spot is in
plain view of many passing steam
ship.> and gasoline boats every day,
but no diving operations have been
noticed. The schooner Winona, which
is claimed to have been used by the
Dunbar party, has not been seen in
this part of Alaska.
Latest reports from Fairbanks
state that the spring wash-up to June
,**,0th is in excess of the output last
year to the amount of $200,000. The
spring operations of the big open-cut
operators began at least three weeks
earlier than usual and this has been
a material factor in the increased out
put.

“ PALACE JINGLES "
Here’s a welcome to Cordova
And the Rooters they may bring,
To help celebrate the Fourth,
And make the Welkin ring.
' We’ll take them out to see the sights,
! And help to fill them up.
We’ll give them everything they want
But we’ll fight them for that cup.

But is this thing should come to pass
And they should lift that bowl—
We’ll show them we’re good losers,
If they get us in a hole.
And if they wish to fill the cup,
They won’t have to travel far—
For we’ll fill the cup and drink their
health,
Down at the PALACE BAB.
