romantic story which reaches US from
Nairn. Some Arabic manuscripts which
certain Corporal Mcdonald found at
Omdurman and presented to the mu-
scum of his native town are said, on
the authority of an Oriental scholar TO
contain intelligence of the Khalifa's
missing treasure. Report says that it
amounts to millions. We ourselves
rather incline to the belief that the

committed his secret to paper, but we
may be sure that such thorough
economist as the Sirdar will leave no
stones unturned to find the millions
Indeed, he has already turned over
good many, for a pretty thorough

say that Colonel Wingate is to decipher
the manuscripts, and we sincerely trust
he may discover the treasure house

the bill is the appropriation for the sur

further Improvement which will come
as the result Of the movement inaug-
urated by the Ohio Valley Improvement
Associatlon.ian carried out by the rep
resentatives in Congress from the
states that will be most benefited.
Much OF the credit for. what has been
done. and particularly for the provis-
ions in the bill which passed the house
yesterday, is due 10 Representative
Dovcner. whose position on the river
and harbor committee has enabled him
to render important service to the en-
terprise. 1t is unnecessary here TO re-
peat all that Captain Dovener has done
In this matter. 1t is well known. and
the promoters Of the work of improve

successful labors.
The great industrial and commercial
interests Of the valley. and particularly
OF this portion Of 1t, can now see in the
not distant future the fruition OF their
hopes. 1t means something, not alone

prises that exist, but to the labor en-
ployed. and all the people will reap
their share OF the benefits.
