By special correspondent
With the finding of Paul Riggs,
skipper of the little 35-foot motor
ship Novi on the northern coast of
California, one of the nine-day
mysteries of this town has been
solved, and the oft-repeated ques
tion, “What has become of Paul
Riggs?’ is answered.
Captain Riggs left here in the
early hours of one cold January
morning and until a few days ago
that was the last seen or heard of
him, with the exception of the us
ual unreliable rumors that part of
his craft had been found here and
there, and so forth. Now he turns
up thousands of miles from here,
apparently none the worse for his
adventure. But Paul Riggs was a
most intripid mariner, without fear
of the sea and when he wanted to
go places, he just picked up his an
chor and went. This time he evi
dently encountered considerable
hardship from the fact that when
found he was floating about with
out a rudder.
Perhaps Riggs will return some
day to tell his friends here the story
of his adventures since last Janu
ary.
Since the early part of May, Dr.
Eric Hulten has been doing very
extensive botanical research work
along the islands of the Aleutian
Chain and upon his return to Swe
den, the early part of October, he
will have completed the survey of
a stretch of country probably the
largest that one njian has been per
mitted to cover, viz: from the
Northern islands of Japan, Kam
chatka, China, Russian and Europ
ian countries and along the whole
of the Aleutian Chain and Alaska
Peninsula from Attu to Seward, and
following down the Southeastern
coast of Alaska to Ketchikan.
To a great many people this work
may not appear important, but if
the specimens he has gathered so
zealously and packed for shipment
with such care, together with the
field notes thereon, the magnitude
of this study and what it means to
botanical students, would be appre
ciated.
Dr. Hulten leaves on the return
trip of this SS Starr, a very pleas
ant and accomplished visitor this
town is sorry to lose.

After a lingering illness of over
a year, Mr. William Moran, better
Seattle Purity Ice Cream; most
delicious. ALASKA SHOP.
known as just “Billie,” passed to his
rest the morning of August 22,1932,
in the home of Mrs- Campbell, at
Dutch Harbor.
There is no doubt but the major
ity of those reading this have either
heard of or have personally known
Billie Moran, from the many years
of his residence in Alaska. His
breezy “deep sea” yarns and good
fellowship, will be long remember
ed by all. Moran was a resident of
Sanak for many years, coming to
Dutch Harbor from there to enter
the employ of the Alaska Commer
cial Company with which he work
ed for 10 years preceding his ill
ness.
To be added to the long list of
ships lost among the rocky islands
of the Aleutian Chain is the faith
ful little motorship Eunice that
struck a reef between Carlisle and
Chuginadak islands August 4 and
sank with a $4,000 cargo of supplies
| and lumber destined for Atka. All
an board were saved without in
jury, by getting into a dory, and
rowing ashore. After taking their
bearings they decided their best
plan would be to row the 55 miles
between them and the nearest
habitation, Umnak village, which
they proceeded to do with a rest
of one night on the way arriving
at Umnak August 7, where they
were given all necessary assistance.
Captain Andrew Nelson has plied
the waters of the Aleutian Islands
with the Eunice for the past four
[ years and has covered in that time
I close to 25,000 miles in the small
craft, through the most severe of
winter storms, until she has become
a large part of himself. He is con
sidered one of the best navigators
in these waters and no blame is at
tached to his management of the
vessel for her loss. It is understood
the Alaska Commercial Company,
to which the vessel belonged, will
replace her at an early date, to con
tinue trading between here and At
tu.
PLENTY OF BERRIES
Low bush cranberries, excellent |
for making preserves, are quite |
abundant in the Lake Kenai region
this year, although it is claimed
that they are not as plentiful as
last year. Many of the residents of
the district have a jar of cranber
ry preserves adorning heavily la
den dinner table constantly and
those who have been fortunate
enough to taste of this Alaskan ber
ry declare it to be delicious.

BETTER TIMES ARE COMING
Don’t be Discouraged!
Don't lose the will to win .... don’t join the pessimists who
see naught but disaster ahead—
During a previous depression, the government had to is
sue paper “Clearing House Certificates” as a substitute for
money. Conditions were just as bad, only we have forgotten.
Prosperity has always followed bad times—this is one of the
laws of business cycles.
Now is the time to substitute the word “Reconstruction” for
“depression.”
Don’t be discouraged. Lend a hand to reestablish confidence.
America will see this through and emerge victorious.
Better times are coming!
