j The Xray machine has not yet
i arrived for the Seward General
I Hospital so it is unlikely that Sew
' ard’s new institution will be open
for least a week or so. it is
! said. Today. Dr. Haverstock is
occupied in moving in much of
his office as well as hospital
equipment.
On clear days passengers on the
mail steamer Starr, cruising thru
Bering Sea enroute to or from Bris
tol Bay, are afforded another spec
tacular sight, from the standpoint
of scenies, when abreast of Shishal
:din volcano off Cape Lapin.
Rising gently from the foothills
and lower ranges, this snow-capped
mount forms a perfect cone, its
sides soar ever upwards without a
break in the skyline.
From its main crater smoke is
forever spouting and sometimes at
night—not a rare occasion by any
means, it is said—a marvelous
pyrotechnic exhibition is displayed
to the gaze of the world when
blasts of flame are hurled into the
heavens. From the sea seven holes
or craters can be counted.
It is nick-named “Smoky Moses”
and it is claimed that within re
cent years the top has burned down
400 feet.
It is claimed that 20,000 sheep
and cattle can graze comfortably
on the Island of Umnak which
is one of the finest and natural
| looking ranches of the far West
ward.

j First was the arrival of the El
Cedro, the first supply ship of the
season. With it came the long
looked for supplies for “Carps Tav
ern”, now running in full opera
tion. This is going to fill a much
ie It want in Unalaska and no ex
pense has been spared to make the
place modern and up-to-date in
every way. Electric lights, fine show
eases, soda fountain, restaurant,
where three meals a day are being
served, as well os the proverbial
“short orders” at any hour of the
day or night- In connection with
the Tavern Mr. Carp has installed
an up-to-date meat market and
cold storage plant, from which he
is preparing to supply leaf, not
only to Unalaska but to the sur
rounding territory.

The El Cedro also brought mater
ial for the new hom^Mrs. A. C.
Goss is building. It is quite pre- ,
tentious. being 30 x 60 feet in size, i
All are looking forward to a big
house warming when it is finished
Mrs. Goss returned on the April
Starr to superintend activities of
building her “little home in the
west.”

I
E. K. Pedler. secretary of the Al- _
aska Commercial Co., arrived in the
supply siiip El Cedro. This is Mr.
Pedlcr’s first visit to Unalaska and
in fact to Alaska- He has heen
closely connected with the business
here for so many years, writing and
conducting operations from his of- j
fice in San Francisco.

One of the chief improvements,
for this year here, wall be the new
$100,000 dock, being built at Dutch j
Harbor. It will now be possible for
the largest ship that travels in j
these waters to dock here. There is
no longer any occasion for boats
to anchor in the stream, however
large they may be.
A very pretty wedding took place
here on April 23 at the Methodist
church. Miss May Fox and Paul
Morton, were the happy couple and
everyone seemed to unit in trying
to make the day a truly memorable !
one for them. Mrs. Goss decorated j
the little chapel and made the bare
and uninteresting walls look dainty |
and refreshing with gay floral
decorations and pretty trimmings- •
Even the little old organ put on a
“new front” for the occasion and
gave itself “airs” <one, of course,,
being Wagner's Wedding March).!
After the ceremony all were invited j
to the home of the bride- \
groom’s mother. Mrs. Kenneth j
Newman. This was followed by a !
banquet for the immediate family, j
given by Mr. Carp at Carp’s Tav- j
ern. Then, in the evening came a ;
dance, with almost all of Unalaska
present. All guests were served
with ice cream during the evening.
Paul is one of the Mission boys and
is a promising young man, with
every prospect of being able to
make a good and substantial livli
hood. either here or elsewhere in
Alaska.
ANCIENT CITY?
On the shores of Uinnak Island, ,
directly adjacent to the village
of Nikolski, lays what appears to
be the ruins of a city of the
past ages. Great granite-like col- j
umns rise up from the water’s j
edge, row upon row, and in be
tween a few of these, are cut
square, uniform doors. Inquiry re
veals, true enough, that there are j
vast caves but little investigation
has been made.
Two Ford Sedans arrived last
evening aboard the S. S. Admiral
Evans from Seattle. One of these
fine cars is for the popular Sand
beck family.

INSPECTION TIME
Now is the time to inspect the
bottom of your shoes and boots
and have them resoled for summer j
wear. SEWARD LEATHER WORKS '
The freighter Tanana, of the
Alaska Steamship Company, is
due to arrive here tomorrow from
Seattle with a large tonnage.
Prom the variety of freight and
general supplies unloaded at every
port out at that country west of j
Seward it is apparent the native
of Alaska have adopted the ways
of the white man for the white !
man’s taste for luxuries can ho j
seen by observing the quantity j
endless sling-loads of supplies
and nature of the contents of the i
from the steamer’s hatches, over
side to a dock or, inmost cases,
to a dory lying alongside.
There isn’t a thing mentionable, ;
hardly, but what the natives out
Westward have also. Rich per- -
fumes, radios, tractors, the latest
mod' •. of dress for the growing j
generation, near-bear and soda
pop, eandiesofevery
pop, candies of every description
palmolive soeo. etc.
Matt Schlosser, well known lo
cal resident, is bound for Moose
Pass where he will spend the
summer.
MUSICALLY INCLINED
Alaska Indians seem to have that j
inherent gift of being natural I
musicians. This is especially so of j
the district west of Seward. As J
one oldtimer s&ys: “Put any kind j
of a string instrument in the hands |
of those natives and they will wean
from it entrancing melodies from |
famous compositions of olden days
as well as modern jazz.
