the vessel had been deliberately cast
! away for the sake Of stealing the
money. If this had been true some
of the notes would certainly have
turned up later; but, as matter Of
fact, none Of them has ever been seen
since and it may therefore be taken
for granted that the missing wealth
still lies at the bottom Of the sea.
Of course, being only paper money, it
was no loss to Uncle Sam.
Immense quantities of gold are
shipped nowadays across the ocean
and the danger of loss is so small that
the precious stuff may be insured at
so low rate as onc-tenth of l per
cent. 1t is insured just like SO much
grain and the documents, written in
old style legal phrases, guarantee its
safety against all pcrils of the seas,
including of-war, fires, enemies,
pirates, rovers, thieves, jettisons, let
ters of marque, reprisals, takings at
sea, arrests and dctainments of all
kings, princes" etc. Every large
transatlantic steamship has on board
treasure room, which is great steel
box built much like vault on land.
Shipments Of gold coin from this
country to Europe have been extraor-
dinarily large recently. The banker
in New York buys it from the sub
treasury there, receiving it in sacks Of
$4,000 each. tits carefully weighed,
because Europe will accept our gold
only by weight, though the quality Of
the coin-its purity and degree OF
ineness- is guaranteed by Uncle
Sans stamp. Usually it is packed in
casks that are much like herring
casks, ten sacks to each cask, which
weighs l8O pounds when thus filed.
Thefts on the voyage are practically
unknown, but in 1904 cask of gold
coin was lost on its way to Paris, be-
ing finally located on the platform Of
o railroad station between Havre and
Paris. The station agsDt had thought
it contained white lead.

Thought Herself TO Death.

The startling fullflment of the pre-
diction of Mrs. Elizabeth Horstman,
OF Mishawaka, Ind, made last July,
when she was apparently in the best
OF health, that che would die on Aug.
10, has set the press onoo more to
discussing the probability Of premoni-
tion Of death. Mrs. Horstman, who
was related by marriage to Bishop
Horstman, CT Cleveland, is said to
have been person of great piety. It
is not known that she was Of melan-
choly or a superstitious disp1 " ion.
Neither ;s anything kncwn aa TO the
motive that prompted her to make the
gloomy prediction. u is known posi-
lively, however. that she made it,
and it was fulfilled to the letter.
There are, of course, numerous in
terpretations of this event. One of
the commonest is that founded on the
fatalist theory. Her day had been
appointed and she was informed Of
the time by some occult or supernat-
tural agency. The spiritualist view,
in the broadcast sense, is hardly less
common. She was advised by some
departed near and dear one as to the
time when she should die. The
rational belief is that advanced by the
Pittsburg Dispatch. Her death is
clearly an example Of the remarkable
power which the mind exercises over
che body.
It is known that fatal results fol-
loved the experiment OF making man
believe that he had been laneed and
was slowly bleeding to deash. The
story Of the practical joge played by
lot ofyoung French medical students
on the jsaitor Of their college is 4amil-
lar. They accused bim of sons feti-
tious offense, gave HIM q mosk trial
and sentenced him to death by deeap-
itation. He was led to- block. Be-
',side it was en- axe. His upper bo5y
was barred and his eyes were baud-
agsd. His head was forced down to- the.
block. One ofthe the stu1entssmote
him across the Dsck with wet towel
andAhe was dead. It was held that
it wne not the ilDusage or the shock
that kSS]ed him, Bat his firm, conpic-
tion tsips his time Had come.
There are many oases recorded In
which people have predicted tiss time.
Of theirrdeath. Then tht-- is the case.
where a. man predicted' the very hour
at which'ha would give up the ghost.
q few minsaes before tine hour.stzuck

Olympia, Wash, Feb 1.-the body Of
Miss Esther Cullen was found lying on
the tide fats near Eighth street bridge.
The young woman had been missing some
time. When discovered the body was in
the bay in the heart Of town. Miss CuiIen
was an Olympia born girl Of excellent
character, and there is a strong theory Of
suicide entertained. A cOroner's inquest
will be held this afternoon. The young
woman was a prominent member of the
Episcopal church and also Of the Typo
