From the, London Mail: On the
Cornish coast, about FIVE miles from
the Lizard, it is quite common to pick
up Spanish dollars which have been
galleon that went down in 1884 with 3
large amount Of bullion on board. 1t
is surprising that. with all. the mod
ern appliances for diving, systematic
attempts are not more frequently made
to recover treasure from the deep. AS
early as 1898 great deal of treasure
was recovered, including the historical
golden cup which once belonged to
Frederick, king Of Sicily. from the
wreck Of one Of the ships Of the "1n-
vincible Armada" In 1880 an Anaeri-
can named William Phipps came over
from Virginia to this country and
craved the assistance Of Charles II. to-
ward recovering some wrecked treas
ure on the coast Of H1spaniola.
Charles provided him with a ship and
the necessary funds, but the first at
tempt proved unsuccessful. In sec
ond effort he was financed by the duke
Of Albemarle, and this time he sue
ceeded in recovering specie to the val
ue Of 100000, and after paying all
expenses he was able to give the duke
the sum Of 100000 as his share in the
venture The specie on board H. M. 8.
Lutine, wrecked in 1893 off the coast Of
Holland, amounted to 41,200,00O. and
the whole OF this still remains at the
bottom OF the sea, with the exception
of s99,S5s, recovered In the year 1859.
Attempts to recover the remainder are
still being made. Diving operations
resulted in the recovery of 900 In
gold from the wreck Of the Inflated
Royal Charter, which took place close
to Moelfra, of the Anglesea coast, but
vast number Of diamonds are still
lying about the wreck. 940,000 in
specie was recovered from the wreck
OF the Hamilla Mitchell, in the Chinese
sea, after lying in twenty-three faith
oms Of water for upward Of twenty
years, and s90,000 in gold was saved
from the wreck Of the Alphonso XII,
which was sunk In twenty-six and one
half fathoms OF water off the Canary
islands in 1885. Some Of the French
ships sunk at Trafalgar contained vast
treasure. Five tons Of silver plate. ex-
cluding the famous silver gates Of St.
Johns Cathedral, Malta. and ton
and half Of gold plate, mostly stud
ded with jewels, the plunder Of tho
Maltese churches, were on board one
Of these ships Not an ounce Of this
treasure has been recovered.

Marriage Of the Dead.

This comes via the North China Her
AID: A Shansi missionary who went to
conduct a funeral the other day mar

riage. The dead man was a bachelor Of
so, and, fearing that his spirit would
wander companionless in the world Of
shades, relatives had secured the coun-
tryside for 4 dead maiden to marry to
him and bury with him. A desirable

Wonderful In Composition.
Keely, Of Keely cure fame, has 4
Russian rival, one Michael Georgevitch
Alaverdoff, who, according to his own
account, having tackled successfully
the Demon Rum in the empire Of the
car, is now in London preparing to
save the drunkards OF England. After
he has accomplished his mission in
England he will probably come over
here and try his hand at New York.
NJ. Alaverdoff declares in his mani
festo that he has, discovered a wonder
full herb which, when administered to
the victim, will cure him completely,
even though he has drunk every day
for more than fifty years from Ave to
twenty bottles of alcoholic drinks" One
would think that the condition Of q
man who had drunk every day for
more than fifty years from five to twen-
ty bottles OF different alcoholic drinks

further shore of the River ,Styx; but
Alaverdoff is from Russia, and the
Russians have long been noted for
powers Of bibation Of the Gargantuan
order. When this wonderful Russian
arrived in London the Daily Chronicle
sent reporter to interview him. AS
there was no man on the staff who
spoke Russian, they chose one who had
moderate taste for vodka as being the
best qualified man available. Through
an interpreter Alaverdoff said to the
reporter that his prescription. consisted
Of 36 per cent spirits Of wine and 64
per cent OF distilled water. As these
numbers made 100 per cent the report
er asked where the curative parts came
in, and, undisturbed, the Russian re-
piled, "6 per cent Of acid Of lemon and
my herb" When the reporter pro-
tested that there was not room, Alaver-
doff smiled blandly and said: "Ah,
that is my secret" Then two glasses
of the medicine, diluted copiously with
most excellent whisky, being poured
out, the reporter and the doctor" pro-
ceeded to test the discovery, and had a
most sociable time. So far the reporter
has not noticed any improvement in
his Russion or any diminution Of his
moderate taste for vodka. Alaverdofl
says he has cured over 5000 inebriates
in Russia, and if he can do the things
with "jags" that he does with mathe-
matics, there does not seem to be any
room for doubt as to his success work

Think Over Your Sermon Plan.

The novelist can give the preacher
some good points. and especially in the
matter OF the sermon plan. After Zola
had collected some LOO pages Of notes
and arranged them in order, he writes
about "Lourdes": MY book is fin
lshed. have only to write It," George
Eliot would make several draughts of
her plot before she wrote a line. OF
Mrs. Henry Wood, her biographer says:
"The great amount Of thought and de-
liberation bestowed upon her books
was always at the commencement. She
would first compose her plot-a matter
Of extreme care and deliberation,
where nothing was passed over or hur-
ried. This would take her about three
weeks Of very close application, and
until the whole was accomplished not
one word of the novel was written" J"
As rule, the more time preacher
spends over the plan Of his sermon.
the less time he will need to spend on
It's composition.-Homile Review.

Among those who furnished means for
him to prosecute his alleged investi-
cations we're Bennett c. Wilson, by
whom Keely was employed as furni-
ture varnisher in 1868. and Mrs. Bloom
field H. Moore. Keelyi took out pat
ent on his motor" and the operations
in his small shop on Twentieth street
behind windowless brick walls were
always, yelled in mystery, except when
he chose to give an exhibition in or
der to impress prospective investors
with the advisability Of furnishing
money with which to carry on his ex-
perments. He claimed for his mo
tor" that it would annihilate gravity"
drive the revolving globe" and su-
persede every form of propulsion now
In use. A number Of companies were
formed to enable Mr.. Keely to perfect
his invention, but, Notwithstanding the
abounding faith which the stockhold-
ers had in his genius, he never seemed
able to produce a machine of practical
use -4s ~.
1t was claimed for the motor" that
when completed 1t would, by attaching
wires. to Independence Hall, to the
Drexel building, and the Land Title
building, 1t could float these mighty
buildings, W 'le and complete, to the
top of the hall. Another power
claimed for was that a girl might
sit in her fathers house and run his
mill by playing the piano.
A third virtue claimed was that by
pouring glass Of water into an urn
and brass receptacle, generate in half
q minute force which would lift an
iron weight 700 pounds at the end of
six-foot lever; that. this force could
be bottled and this vaporic ether could
be taken to charge gun, which would
hurl leaden bullet against an iron
| plate with sufficient force to pierce the
plate.
In fact, almost every occult physical
force was claimed for it, which made
this invention sort of a "philoso-
piers stone" of modern times.

THE STATE WINS.
Decision in the Davis Case Saves it
Many Thousandx

BY the decision Of the Supreme Court
rendered june 18th in the case Of
Davis VS.. the State of California,
involving the question of interest on
matured coupons detached from the
bonds of 1851, generally known as In
dian war bonds" the State wins final
victory which saves to it's taxpayers
many thousands of dollars.
The liability of the State for the face
value Of these bonds and coupons was
determined in the case Of Sawyer
against COlgan, reported in 102 Cal,
2S3, and Malineaux against State, re-
ported liz 100 Cal, 37S, but in each of
these cases the court disallowed inter
est after maturity. Other cases involv-
ing the same questions are Bates VS..
the State, Davis VS.. the State and Scott
VS.. the State. By the decisions in all
these cases the State is saved about
$15O,OCO
Other cases involving the liability Of
the State to pay the bonds of 1852 (also
known as Indian war bonds), and cou-
pons are yet undecided. These cases
are brought to recover principal and
interest after maturity.
The face value of the bonds and cou-
pons sued upon aggregate over $50 O.jO
and the interest approXimates upward
of $265, 900. By this decision in the
case of Davis VS.. the State the last
named amount will be saved to the
