THE American schooner “Yankee”, on a world cruise, on August 11 arrived at Dobo, in the Aroe Islands, south westwards of Dutch New Guinea. She was under the command of Captain Irving Johnson.
In addition to Mrs. Irving Johnson and two children, the “Yankee” had on board 12 Americans, who are going round the world, sightseeing and gaining experience of “sailing before the mast”. After leaving Dobo they hoped to tour Bali and Java, in the East indies. This is the second time Captain Johnson has called at Dobo.
