Oscar Oberg, is in precarious position on reef on Hump Island near Point Retreat in Lynn Canal.

Adelman was found in his home above Graehl by Nick Martin. Adelman had been in poor health for about year.

Adelman was 63 years old and had lived in this district for many years. He has no surviving relatives. Funeral ar- arrangements have not yet been made. 1 George Maynard, who was brought 1 in to Juneau from Taku Harbor, suf- fering from a paralytic stroke, died at St. Ann's hospital. MT. Maynard hardly regained consciousness after he was brought to Juneau and was unable to tell hospital attendants who he was Nothing is known here about Maynards relatives or where he is from, other than that he has been working at the cannery at Taku Harbor.

HOLY MAN" PROMISES
 ID MAKE HONEY GOLD

BOMBAY, India, July g. (P- A pseudo "holy man" is engaging the attention of the Bombay police. The simple faith of the Indian native en- ables him to reap rich harvest.
 Posing as a religious mendicant endowed with the gift of magic, he claims to have been given power by the goddess of good fortune that en- ables him to turn honey into gold.
 Visiting native houses, he induces the women to make a present of their jewelry to the goddess, and in return presents them with a pot of honey. This pot, he tells them, must be placed under the doorstep and af- ter two days it, would be found that the honey would be turned to gold, and on top of the gold the family jewelry, returned by the goddess.

Let no one envy the president of
these United States in such days as
these. The situation affects him more
than any other, hundredfold. What
ever Mr.. Coolidge has done since No
vember, it has been seized as unmis-
taxable proof that he seeks four more
years in the White House. 1t is a
curious fact that no act or word of
any presidential possibility has. ever
been interpreted as indicating that he
did not actively aspire to the office.
Coolidge dtched the World court at
Kansas City. He decided to keep Mr..
Butler as republican national commit
tee chairman. He called for a tax
rebate He changed his position re-
garding construction Of battle, cruis-
