An interesting search after lost
treasure has just begun in the Adria-
tic, near Trieste. In September,
1912, the French corvette Danae
was lost by an explosion, from caus-
es unknown, the whole Of the crew,
some two hundred men, being
drowned, The captain Of The ship
had Just returned from the theatre
when the powder-magazine blew up,
and such was the force of the eX-
plOSiOn that every window in the
quarter of the town near the sea
was smashed. There happened to
be on board the Danae a case of
costly jewels and valuables, destined
for an exalted parsonage at Trieste.
No trace of it could afterwards be
discovered. The search now being
made, with the permission of the
authorities of the port, is carried
on by experienced divers, though
hitherto not a vestige of the Danae
or her treasure has been found

Evil peaking.

notice of your readers an evil that is gaining
such proportions In our town and community
that the question is becoming one of very
serious moment, and one that will threaten
the good name and prosperity OF our growing
little city.

ton OF Innocent men aud women character.
Why. sir the IN sitter has utterly astOnished

pure women in our Town are by the demon
like and ioul-mouthed tongue attacked and
their good name handled as They would so

that | live In a country where IL is enjoyed
beyond all others, but when liberty assumes
TO itself such license that the fair name Of
woman whose reputa tiop Is beyond all ques-
tiOn, shall be assailed by wholesale, then ]
begin to feel that there are times and occa-
sions when even so good a boon as liberty
needs restraint, II it must be nj,yed at the
priceless cost OF stealing the good name Of
woman. I want to state az \ fact, If this evil
is allowed to continue, that in less than an
other half year there will not be "a woman in
this town whose good name may not he
brought in question. You many think | am
stating this too strongly, but on sober aud
earnest reflection, with an eve single, TO Him
who shall Judge me at the last day, l believe
I but state the truth. | trust this question
may interest others rs 1t does me. and that
