cruise she had been lucky, and three
Spanish galleons had, after bloody bat
tie. surrendered to the sturdy British
tars that manned the Braak. Every re-
cord and legend tends to show that the
s.oop had on board cargo which was
worth fully $10,000,000. Well. on the
night of that same 25th day of May, q

Twice have there been attempts to
raise the treasures and each time there
has been failure, because the exact
location of the sunken craft could not
be determined. Recently divers who
have been at work declare that they
have found the treasure ship. She is
said to be in good condition and the
brass guns that protrude from the deck
ports are visible. Now another at
tempt is to be made to find and take
possession of the wealth which our
British ancestors stole from some
Spanish grandees and it looks as though
some of it would really be recovered.
The United States goveInme has
been requested to risk little in the
enterprise, but has refused. 1t, how

Whether or not the people of Utah have
read the ridiculous story sent broadcast
by verdant and.foolish attache of the
Associated Press, l know not, but i'm
agine it is safe to presume that no pa
per in the Territory. no matter what
its political or religious views, would
print such an aggregation OF unmiti-
gated malice and willful falsehood of
the most siauderous description. Her
story Cf outrage, robbery and murder
would be absurd, almost laughabla,
were it not for the injury done to the
reputation of an honest, God-fearing
people. Thirty years ago. when fseili-
ties for travel were few, and when U tab
was unvlsited and unknown, such crazy
statements obtained credence in many
quarters but that to-day in all the light
of the nineteenth century, a people
should read and believe such malicious
libeis is something difficult of under
standing.

years. The severity of the Edmunds act,

VIEWING THE PROMISED LAND
SQuatters on the Ground Awaiting the
Opening of an Indian Reservation.

GREAT FALLS, Mont. News of the
opening of the Black Feet Reserva-
ton is awaited impatiently here and
throughout Northern Montana. A
large number Of persons have gone
to the reservation to locate ranches,
mines and town sites. The desirable
valleys are fairly covered with tents,
the greatest rush apparently being to
the Big Sandy, the famous hay
grounds. Soldiers as well as civilians
are on the grounds, and when news
comes that the bill is signed there is
likely to bearush. Bullock Valley,
beyond Fort Assiniboine, is all staked
of, and the tents Of the squatter may
be seen all along tho valley of the
Milk River. There is a silver lode in
the Bear Paw Mountains that was
located several years ago. 1t is
understood that several parties are on
hand watching to locate this mine as
well as to prospect for others.-Chic.

A School Excursion.

For fortnight or more had the
students of Irving College been an
ticipating a holiday at Beersheba, on
MAY Day"
Notwithstanding the heavy show
ers Of the previous evening, all, num-
bering thirty odd, were on hand, and

the conqueringsun shone forth, merri-

could be heard "all the way from Dan

After two hours ride we began
the zig-zag ascent up the mountain.
We reached the summit at "highest

cast their shadows, and this vision,
commingling soft and quiet beauty
with wild grandeur, filled us with
ineXpressible emotions, as we paused
moment to take in the exquisite
picture.
Some fastened to the pavilion,
with its extended balcony, uniquely
arranged to form promOntory, as it
were, from the very brow. From
this point we could get a broader
view of the opposite peaks and the
main Cumberland range. We scan
the rich and lovely valley stretching
some ten or fifteen miles. We can
easily trace with the eye Collins

the level meadows; and that white
speck in the dim distance is Irving
