WEALTH IN THE PACIFIC.
Rema rka bile Story of the Discovery
of Trea sure Island.

Victoria. b. c., Aug. 1S.-The schooner
Aurora arrived here yesterday from Cocos,
the Pacific treasure island, with a remar K
able story. Back In ! e21, 50 the story goes,
refugees of the war OF emancipation
between the South and Central American
colonies and Span carried their riches,
gold and silver 900 miles over the Pacific
Ocean from Costa Rica, to the Will island
OF Cocos, where they buried million upon
million.
As years went by expeditions were fitted
out and sent to Cocos Island. Some of the
adventures returned to tell their stories
Of hardship. Others were not again heard
of alive, and their successors found grouped
skeletons, grim relics of the failures that
had gone before. A Spanish chart, pass
ing from hand to hand through unnum-
bered and unnoted changes, came into pos
session of Mrs. Mary Brennan, of Nova
Scotia, and the end Of her study was
that she set forth for the western coast.
Business men OF Victoria organized an
expedition. and six months ago the schooner
Aurora sailed for Cocos. with Mrs. Brennan,
Capt. Eackett and crew Of eight men.
Mrs. Brennan was the first to set foot upon
when there ran out from the woods great
ape-lile creature that threw itself face
down upon the ground and cried ont pit
eously with human voice.
After some difficulty the story was OBJ
tanned that the creature name was Charles
Hertford and that the Costa Rican gunboas
Turalba had landed him in Sept ember last
to hunt for the treasure, with the under
standing that Ii was to return in three
months for him.
If he found the treasure the government
was to take q certain percentage and he
was to nave the rest. They had given him
tools and provisions, but they had not come
back.
"But I've found the treasure. It's all
mine. 1 found it," he said.
For weeks and months the expedition
sought the cache, following the chart that
Mrs Prenuan had, but without result. Hert-
ford went along, offering no suggestion,
but laughing quietly to himself.
Finally he offered to show them the
place if the party agreed to give him hal
the treasure. All OF the party signed but
Mrs Brennan, Capt. Hackett and another
Two of the expedition stayed and the
rest returned home.
Hertford, who lives in Rock ford, ILL.,,
telegraphed Immediately upon his arrival
to friends in San Francisco who, he says,
will start an expedition immediately. He
is not worried about the two men who
have been left upon the island, for he
Sass the treasure is SO hidden that no
man without the true chart could eve.

When Doctor Mccoy offered the s3 rate
to new patients as we'll as to old. he did not
limit IL To one month, but made IL for the
whole summer ending Ii only with the
frat of September.
This is the longest period during which
special offer has ever been
kept standing. during which a spe-
dal opportunity has ever been given
Doctor Mccoy does not regret that he made
TINS offer; be does not regret that he made
the offer cover 80 many weeks, although
both himself and his associates have found
TO hour OF leisure during that time. He
feels that much good has been done. He
feels that many have been enabled To be
cured who would have otherwise remained
hopeless invalids, and he feels that all have
had abundant opportunity to receive the
benefits OF his treatment at fee so small
that there has been no burden.
Doctors Mccoy and Cowden wish that
there may be no misunderstanding: they
wish thai there may be no disappointment;
they wist to make IL perfectly plain to
everybody that this rate cannot be con-
tinued OF extended beyond tar st OF Sep
ternber Ii ends positively with the last
day OF August Under no conditions will
there he h renewal or extension of this
nominal rate.
Those however. who apply for or renew
their treatment during the remaining 9 days
of August viii be treated until cured at the
rate OF 50 month This applies 10 all pa
ticnts and all Diseases The only limit is
the positive one Of time.
