ONE OF HER BOATS WAS FOUND FLOATING.
such an obstruction the idea was
abandoned. Had no one been left alive
1t would have been set down to boiler
explosion, but the testimony of the il
survivors was against such an acct
dent. All were agreed that there was
no explosion of any sort and that the
propeller was still revolving rs she set
tied down. As the unfortunate craft
had cost about 100000 and this was
the first trip, the Spanish government
went In for the most thorough inyesti-
CATION. The depth OF water was not
beyond the divers, and a buoy was set
to mark the spot as near rs might be
until men could 20 down, 1t was two
weeks later before the divers were
ready, and then a second mystery was
at hand. The Huafa was not TO be
found under or In the nelghborhood of
the buoy. For the first time I'm the
history of the port It was learned that
there was a stiff current running along
the bottom OF the bay, entering from
the north and going clear around II to
sweep out to sea on the south side.
The surface of the bay was only dis
turbed by wind and tide, and even as
far down as 40 feet no current could be
felt, but the last 10 feet of water be-
fore touching bottom had the rush of a
mill race. When this fact was made
clear to the searchers, they extended
the field of their operations. The cur
rent ran strongest as the tide flowed
In and directly in opposition. The
Huafa had come In on almost n full
tide, and the current would therefore
drift her along the north side of the
| bay, or so 1t was reasoned. AS mat
terof fact. however, the north shore was
searched without finding any trace of
her. Then search OF the south shore
followed, and then they hoped to find
the suukon craft in some eddy near the
center. 1t was five months before the
divers declared that the bottom was
clear of wreck Of any sort.
Now came the question of what had
become of the man-of-war 1t did not
seem possible that such a mass OF
wood and iron, with the weight Of her
guns and stores and unfortunate crew
added, could be drifted any distance
along the bottom, especially as the bot
tom was plentifully sprlnkled with
| great rocks. There was no other way
to account for her disappearance, how
ever The current bad bumped her

along the bottom for distance of three
miles and had then taken her out to
sea. Just off the entrance of the port
the water deepens to 200 feet, and 1t
was concluded that she had been car
ried into this basin to be buried under
the ooze. The commission of inquiry
closed its labors much more befogGed
ut the finish than Mt the start and 1t
was not believed that anything further
would ever be heard of the craft. Moth
Ing ever has been directly, but many
things have come to light TO still fur
Their tangle the mystery surrounding
her. A year and half later and as
far TO the south as the mouth of the
gulf of Concovaco one of her boats
was found floating. Its gripes had rot
ted from the davits and freed It. This
did not prove the position of the lost
Huafa, but 1t satisfied many minds
that she must be drifting southwark.
Three months later some of her boxed
stores drifted ashore ON the islands,
400 miles to the south, and six weeks
after this ind and still TO the south
some of her cabin furniture was pick
ed up by II whaler. This folsom was
without barnacles, proving that 1t had
not long been afioat. 1t was concluded
from this that the Huafa was still
creeping along the bottom, the play
thing OF the current, and the last find
made almost settled the question. A
second boat and more wreckage were
washed ashore almost as far down as
Cape Horn, and in the bottom of the
boat were six inches of LIQUID mud
This must have accumulated as she
Heated or crept along the bottom of
the sea, and the chances are that the
boat did not drift above 70 miles after
rising To the surface
As TO the accident In the bay, II Is
generally believed that the vessel
struck large whale which had en-.
tered out Of curiosity and that in his
pain and fright the giant fish had hove
her up and then flung her on her side
but as no whale had ever been seen In
the bay there IS room for doubt Wreck
or whale or whatever 1t may have been,
II was the cause of one of the gloom
lest tragedies of the sea, and no one
can imagine that i'll fated craft slowly
creeping down around the God forsab-
en- point of land which men call Cape
Horn without sigh of pity for the
skeleton crew that mans Its iron decks.

GabciIn Tapestr,.

So important are their artistic merit
and historic value that no history of
tapestry is complete that does not In
clude description of their design and
execution. For more than 200 years
the existence of the papal manufac-
tory of tapestries was unknown to the
modern world. Documents relating TO
Its origin and productions were buried
and forgotten in the mass OF manu-
script In the famous Barberni library
until very recent date, when they
were unearthed by Eugene Muntz, di-
rector of the National Ecole des Beaux
Arts at Paris. In the popular mind
all tapestries are associated with the
Gobelin factories of France.
Curious to relate, not yard of tap
estry was ever woven by member of
the Gobelin family. Immortality came
TO them from the fact that In the mid.
