returns so enormous, that it was only
a few days till the reverend gentleman
had the general public interested, and
not only so, but several men of money

into the matter in order that if it
should turn out to be Il good thing they
would not be too late for Il chance to

proposed to set up.

eral hundred yards from the shore.
Leading out to it was a long bridge.
Out here the experiments were per-
formed. The men of money were in
vited, and came. bringing with them
supply of quicksilver, at the request of
the minister. This was placed in a
lead-lined box. The box was lowered
and an electric current passed through
the quicksilver, the result being that
the precious metal was extracted from
the sea water. After a certain time the
box was raised and its contents turned
over to an assayer. who reported that
the return of gold was not only pure,
but that the deposit was very heavy
The money men were pleased, and Mr.
Jernegan might have any reasonable
amount to establish a plant. He got
several thousand on the strength Of
the experiment, but the plant came
slowly. One excuse after another was
invented and the men of capital grew
suspicious. He found out there was
danger. so he packed his grip and sailed
for France. The scheme was certainly
a unique one. What really happened
while the box was under water was
this. A diver went down at some point
near by and, unknown to the capital
lists, put in whatever gold was in the
box when it came up.

Until it was discovered that Porto
Rico possessed great value as Il STRAIT
egic center" of naval operations, the
fair isle slumbered undisturbed, merely
link, and no important one, in the
emerald chain that separates the At
lantic and the Caribbean. Suddenly
naval folk became aware Of its import
ance; they saw that while 1t borders
on the Caribbean Sea, yet it breasts
the rough Atlantic waters; that it is
equidistant, or about q thousand miles,
from Key West and Colon; from New
York 1000 miles, which is half the dis
lance from Cadiz; 1900 from Newport
News, which is half the distance to the
Canaries. 1t lies, in fact, at the very
point that we should have selected for
a cOaling station, had we unrestricted
choice of location. All the arguments
that have been advanced for the ac-
QUESTION of the island of st. Thomas,

one time we were almost ready to pay

fold force to Porto Rico, with its six
good harbOrs to the one of ST. Thomas,
and its commercial as well as strategi-
cal pOtentialities.

method of treating sea water chemical

pert chemist and mineralogist, and was
said to have spent months in expert

was close secret. With the gentlemen
whom he had taken into his confidence,
Mr.. Jernegan instituted plant on a
