POCKET PICKED.
Thomas Rogers Encounters a
"Squsezs" Crowd -Lssss $50.

Thomas Rogers. of 3s1 Wickenden street
regrets exceedingly that he went TO the
JOY line dock Monday night.
There was bit OF crowd and Mr.
Rogers got well into II just how or why
he couldn't at that time conceive.
Mr.. Rogers was unwittingly experienc-
ing an experience, so to speak.
He was up against the real thing and
didn't know IL.
He was being braced by a gang OF pick
pockets and they were doing him up
brown.
This sad fact he discovered few min
utes later. when he began TO look for his
pocket book
II wasn't I'm the usual place and Mr..
Rogers made one of those hurried pitti-
pat hunts from pocket to pocket that a
man rushes through when ne misses prop
erty.
The pocket book couldn't be found
Neither could the $50 which he had con-
fdingly placed In IL just before he left
home.
The police haven't yet located this or
any other OF the gang OF pickpockets that
has been working Providence TO beat the
band for the last three months.

after TREASURE.
But tho Finds 50 Far Has
Been Of Little Value.

Chariottetown. p. z. l.. Aus. H-seek-
ing for buried treasure has long been a
oongenial pursuit for many. both of the
shadowy sections OF romance and in the
stern fields of reality. and Prince Edward
Island has not been exempt from the
money-digging sdventurer whose marks
are still visible in many parts.
IL was not generally supposed. however.
that persons In quest OF hidden wealth,
had been carrying on operations at this
late day, but such appears 10 be the fact.
While a number of men were digging
near the extreme end OF East Point, re-
Gently, they came across a small iron safe
OF peculiar construction. IL was taken
out OF hole about seven feet deep.
Investigation revealed that IL contain
ed little OF value and that II had been
buried by the early French settlers or by
buccaneers of the 18th century. az many
might suppose IL developed that the
safe had belonged TO the British warship
Phoenx which was wrecked of East Point
about 20 years ago Nevertheless the find
has lent an impetus TO the treasure Dig
ging industry.

GETTING
READY
FOR TEST
Constitution Being PuI In Shape
for tho Final Races With tho
Old Defender Columbia.

The preliminary work of getting the
Constitution in shape for hauling out on
the marine railway at Newport for i'm
prcvements, began early this forenoon.
Capt Rhodes had the yachts topmast
struck the first thing after the crew had
moval ashore 10 the sail-loft of all sails
which were stored below matches.
These sails are to be re-out and given
q better fit before the boat leaves for
Newport the latter part of the week.
Many OF the fittings above and below
decks were also taken ashore TO the boat
shops 10 be improved. The mainsail was
not disturbed up to the middle Of the
forenoon. and the crew were busy clean
ing the topsides with soap and water.
The diver who is 10 load the Constitu-
ton Oh the cradle when she is hauled
out was on hand early with his diving
outft which was loaded on the scow be-
fore 10 o'clock this forenoon.
In order to determine what alteration
will be necessary. the diver went down
and examined the Constitutions hull.
The cradle was made ready so that when
the tide was at its height everything will
be In position for the hauling out.
IL has been decided that some sltera-
tions In small way will be made in the
rig, and for this purpose Billman, the rig
ger end his men have come here. Just
what the changes will be have not yet
been decided upon.

British Consul Brennan Says II
Is Worse Than Before.

London. Aug. T.-Byron Brsnsn, Brit
ish Consul General at Shanghai, who has
just returned TO England, said to a rep
resentativs of the Associated Press to-
day:
From the standpoint of foreign inter-
ests the position OF China Ia far worse
today than before the International oc-
cupation of Pekin. Formerly the Chinese
believed foreign interests were. at any
rate to a certain extent. Identical Thanks
TO recent events they are now better able
than ever to play off one Power against
another so patiently have their inter-
ests been shown TO diverge. There Is
a very hostile feeling in many parts Of
Northern China and local disturbances
may be expected"
Mr.. Brenan declared that Russia and
Germany both had far more influence
with the Chinese government than Great
Britain. He believed the United States
would be tho greatest sufferer by the
closing OF Manchuria to foreign trade.
