satisfied with the results obtained on
the property so far.
Fred Mebes, the only operator in
* the Submarine paystreak the past
winter has had fourteen men employ

work and will have a good sized
dump.
The Gastineau channel towns will
have a three club league of baseball
this summer, one team from Juneau,
another at Douglas and a third at
Thane. It is proposed to alternate
in playing the games at the three
places.
The Nome school board, acting bn
the suggestion of Territorial Commis
sioner of Education L. D. Henderson,
recently added one half hour to the
school day of the higher grades on
account of time lost during the last
epidemic of influenza. Classes will
continue form 9 to 4 p. m. instead of
3:30 as has been the rule.
The two bodies recovered above
Skagway have been identified as Jno.
Christensen, a Dawson taxidermist,
and Fred Harvey, a waiter from the
ill-fated Princess Sophia wreck. The
body of Christensen was interred in
the Moose plot at Juneau. The body
of Fred Harvey was shipped to Van
couver.
The Brown hoist and crew of men
under Foreman Norvin Smith went
out the line to camp 15 near Nenana
last week and will gather up the ma
terial left by contractors who have
i
been working along the grade, con
sisting of rails, ties, sawlogs, etc.,
which are now scattered along the
right-of-way.
The members of the Anchorage
Moose lodge No. 1534 have purchased
the lot and building thereon adjoining
the Redwood property on the south
side of Fourth avenue between B and
C street. They paid Pat Keeley spot
cash for the property, too. The build
ing was formerly occupied by Atkin
son & Clark in their tin shop business
and is considered an exceptionally
good buy.
Joe Benard, master or tne scnooner
Teddy Bear, sent word back to Nome
recently that he had no intention of
trying to reach the Atlantic by way
of the passage discovered by Raold
Amundson. Benard was at Bailly
island near the mouth oT the Macken
zie river last summer on his way back
to Nome where he was forced to sus
pend his trip owing to his boat being
caught in the Ice. He will return to
Nome some time the coming summer.
It is probable that an attempt will
be made during the summer to sal
vage the steamer Princess Sophia
wrecked on Vanderbilt reef last Octo
ber. The vessel lies on top of a hill
700 fet high and it was reported at
first that the hull had broken in two
but divers sent down report it intact
and the question of raising her has
been debated. The Tees will come
north in June to make a complete
survey and in all probability will not
return until she takes the Sophia
with her. It is probable that the
Santa Cruz may be brought north to
aid In the work.

' with regret that the paper is sus
pended.

the undersigned and money paid for
advance subscriptions ' will be re

FORM TRADES UNION
PARIS, June 4 (by Associated

Paris stage have decided to form a
regular trades-union, to be affiliated
to the General Labor Federation and
so compelled to take part in any strike
ordered by that body.
The machinists, electricians and
other employes of the theatre and
music-halls have been unionized for
some time. The new union will try
to establish a minimum salary of $4 a
lay with payment during rehearsals.
Plenty of caustic soda, battery oil,
oxide plates and zincs come on the

JAPAN TO START THE
MANUFACTURE OF TIN
TOKIO, June 4 (by Associated
Press).—In view of the present short
age of tin plate as a result of the in
sufficient supply from abroad, the
government iron foundry at Yawata,
Kyushu, will shortly start the manu
facture of this metal.
In 1916, the United States, the prin
cipal exporter, supplied from 60,000
to 65,000 pounds of tin plate to Japan
and in 1917 45,000 pounds. Though the
supply from abroad will possibly be
come greater it will not be enough to
satisfy the enormous demand in Japan.
