PART OF SWAG STOLEN FROM
 GANTY'S STORE RECOVERED

Considerable excitement was man itest about tOy this morning when it was rumored that the thieves who broke into the Ganty store last week had been arrested. Upon learn ing the details, it is found that little Miss Ermine Latham, while playing house near her home discovered a quantity of bacon and some canned goods in a deserted shack. She i'm mediately told her parents. Marsh al Page and Mayor Ganty were at once notified and a search of the building revealed one slab of Prem ium brand bacon and a sack of can ned goods, evidently portion of tn
 plunder secured by the thieves. Working on the theory that this was one of the bold robbers diyvies, a careful search ct a number of shack in the immediate vicinity failed to disclose the whereabouts of any more of the stuff stolen, and the burglars are therefore still at large.

 Owing to the severity of the storms that lashed Southeastern Al aska waters early this week, the Favorite undoubtedly encountered heavy going shortly after she left Juneau.

 Several boat owners are talking of going out searching this evening if news of the FavOrite's safety, and that of her passengers, is not re- ceiYed by that time.
