MORE EXPEDITIONS TO SCARCE
FOR m
one Man claims To Have "a License
from Costa Rica TO Search FOR This
Fablcd Treasure.

VICTORIA. November Captain
HaCkett, who commanded the Aurora
expedition to Cocos Island in search Of
alleged buried treasure. and who is to
command the expedition which his COM
pany Is organizing has received let
ter from August Gissler, OF Stockton,
Cal, who claims to have a license given
by the Costa Rican government to hunt
for the treasure. in which Gissler says
that the schooner to be sent from Vic
tOia will be met by a Costa Rican gun
boat. Gissler signs himself as governor
of Cocos Island. and the letter is dated
from San Francisco. Captain Hackett
handed the letter To A. r.. Milne, cOllec-
tor Of customs, who said that he would
give the schooner a clearance to the ISL
and as Great Britain did not recognize
any sovereignty over It, which was
shown by the fact that a British cruiser
had been allowed to go and her crew to
search for the treasure.
The letter was sent TO Admiral Bick-
ford. but no answer has yet been re-
ceived from him. The company, in
which a large number of leading Vic
toria business men are interested, has
not by any means given up their idea
and several secret tests of the instru-
ment which, 1t it alleged, will find gold
and silver. have been made, and so far
with success.
A little bag containing 1920 in gold
and a number of gold watches and
chains was buried in the center of
cluster of brush, and those with the in
struments which were attracted by the
buried gold discovered the hiding place
and unearted the cached watches and
coin. One of the instruments used is
like a whip, with tips which are attract
ed to gold or silver and when this in
strument has pointed out the direction
of the cache the other instrument,
which has two bent sticks for handles
finds the exact location, but only when
the man holding this instrument in his
hands is standing on the spot where the
gold is hidden does the attraction in
dictate that the spot has been found.
By means of these two instruments
the treasure was found within short
time.

THE RULER INCIDENT.

He is not entitled to much sympathy
as he brought this action upon himself
Butte Miner.
Doubtless a majority of the British
people Will feel that the incident marks
the beginning of a better era in the
affairs of government.-Chica News.
Both the friends of the British and
the friends of the Beers have cause for
rejoicing at the compulsory retirement
of Sir Redvers Butler from the British
army.-Syracuse Post-Standard.
A revulsion of feeling must follow
this public outburst and the action of
the government in response there to.
The common sense of justice will not
sustain such acts.-St Paul Globe.
The good queen is dead. The war
goes on and Butler disappears beneath
the waters of oblivion, shipwrecked by
squall so petty that no one knows
what caused it.-San Francisco Call
AS commander of the forces in Ire
land he was brOad-minded and pacific.
But the speech for which the war office
has deprived him of his command was
frightfully egostcal and unsoldierly.-
Buffalo Express.
Butler, under Roberts. showed himself
a good fighter i'm the second advance for
the relief of Ladysmith, but his success
in relieving that point was marred by
his failure to pursue closely the retreat
ing Minneapolis Journal.
He might have kept his place if he
had held his tongue but he persisted in
talking, and in talking after such a
fashion that he betrayed a contemplate
lack Of self-poise and wretched weak
ness of character.-Chicago Record

1t is easy to be wise after the event
What Gen. Buffers rabid critics forget
is that justice requires that he be judg-

strength but of the misinformation
which was accepted at the time.-Chi-
cago Post.
The removal of Gen. Butler from COM
mand of the First army corps, because
of his unfortunate after-dinner speech
in which he undertook to reply TO his
critics, will hardly strengthen the posi-
ton of the War office with the British
people, but it may prove effective from
the standpoint of observation-disclosures

STRANGE PLACE.

An osprey, a species of the eagle
family, was found at the base of 1876
foot fiue at Hotel Reynolds in Boston,
the other day The bird measures from
the tip of one wing to the tip of the
other about five feet, and the fue it
went into is about three feet in di-
ameter. This kind of a bird is rarely
found inland. 1t probably lost its sea
course and lighted upon the edge of
the top of the Reynolds house CHM
ney, where there was no footing for
such a heavy body. The osprey is a
dangerous bird, and will show great
fight If person is so unfortunate as to
come within reach of its long claws.
When they do get live prey within
their grasp it is difficult to break away,
for the reason that they imbed their
claws into the flesh and the longer
they have a hold the tighter becomes
their grip. This one will probably be
killed and stuffed

GOLD IN PHILIPPINES.

Walter Wellman makes the predic-
ton that great gold rush to the Phil
ippines will soon be witnessed. 1t is in
the island of Mindanao that the gold
is found, and Mr.. Wellman states that
returning army officers declare there
can be no doubt that it will become
the seat of a great mining industry
1t was gold that brought the Span
iards into the western world, and it
was gold that drew Americans across
the continent to settle every available
spot between Kansas and the Pacific
ocean. If there is gold in the Philip
pines in paying quantities there viii
be an army of prospectors to invade
the islands, and these will contribute
powerfully toward the development of
every business adapted to the condi-
lions prevailing there.-Seattle Post

HANDY's QUESTION.

Deputy United States Marshal Handy
asked Larry Dee and some others a
question the other day. which he said
he had been required to answer. It
was as follows: "If two diametrical
circles with octagonal peripheries
should collide with a centrifugal lido
syncrasy, or to put it palmer we will
say a disenfranchised nonentity, what
effect would the catastrophe exert on
a crystallized Goldfish suspended by the
tail from the homogeneous rafter of
the empyrean?"

Ayers
Cherry PeCtOraI

the most effective remedy for coughs
Of every kind and in every stage.
One of the most annoying coughs Is
a throat cough, where you have that
constant tickling in your throat. II
comes on worse at night, keeps you
awake, and makes you have that
smothered feeling in the chest. It
hardly seems possible what one dose
of Cherry Pectoral will do for this
kind of a cough, it brings such marked
relief.
Put up in large and small bottles.
When the cough gets down deep in
the chest and the lungs are painful,
put one of Ayers Cherry Pectoral
PlaSters directly over the tender lung.
1t will draw out all the soreness.
