fire on them?"

bravo! You are a true comrade!
Hero, master. bring us some Of your
best cigars, we must make our gallant

A box was brought and at their

another question to the brave SOL

DURANGO
HAS OIL
TO BURN

"Oil! OIL" Magic word that caus-
es the heart to beat faster and the
pocketbook to grow larger-some-
times. Durango has been pronounced
as being located in the center of an
oil-bearing territory whose value and
extent can only be determined by sys-
tematic development.
1t has been known that the forma-
tion in this section gave promise of
petroleum. and last December E. H.
/ De Wore, an eminent geologist and oil
expert who pronounced favorably upon
the Florence oil fields, and those at
Boulder, visited this section at the in
stance Of local capitalists. Mr.. De
Vore spent several weeks making in
vestigation, and has submitted as a re-
suit the report which appears here
with. Coming from man of Mr.. De
Vore's standing as an expert, 1t is in
deed cause for the people of this Sec
tion to feel assured that we have In
our midst unknown quantities of that
precious fluid, the subsequent develop
ment and production of which would
prove untold dollars added to the
wealth of the San Juan. already so rich
in other valued products wrested from
mother earth. Appended is the report

A SMUGGLER'S TREASURE
HIDDEN NEAR PORTO RICO
1t Has Been Found by a Party OF
Treasure Hunters From
Illinois.
Neto York sun SpeoiGL Serrtce

Shelbyville, H., May IA smuggler's
treasure of 100000 hidden on small
island a couple of hundred miles from
Porto Rico has been found by Philo Reude
and Abe Fogel of Herrick, little city in
the southern part Of this county. During
the civil war a party of half a dozen
smugglers were engaged in the slave trade
between Porto Rico and the United States.
AS there was constant danger of capture
they merged their wealth. amounting to
about $1,000 900, and concealed it in a
stone embankment on a small island 200
miles south Of Porto Rico.
At the close of the war they started for
the island to recover their hidden treas
ure, but the elements interfered and they
were wrecked. There were but two sur
vivors and they returned to this country.
While at New Orleans one of these died
with smallpox and the other being inan-
cially unable to recover the money kept
his secret until just before his death,
when he revealed it to his kinsman
Reude.
Just recently the latter confded in his
friend Fogle and together they organ
lied the Porto Rico Prospecting company.
Several prominent citizens took stock in
the company and were greatly rejoiced
yesterday to get this message dated at
Porto Rico:
Amount all O. K.-Reude.'
This message is taken to indicate that
they. had found the treasure and were in
possession Of it.

THIS FOR PEACE
Emperor of Austria on the Situation
in His Realm.

emperor OF AUSTRIA on the Situa ton
i'm His Realm:
Budapest, Hungary, May 7.-"As in the
past, so in the future, the constant en-
deavor Of my government will be directed
to fostering close relations with ou1
allies as well as feelings of confidence
with all other powers, thus contributing
to the maintenance and consolidation of
European peace"
This was the most interesting passage
from a general international viewpoint
10 the reply of Emperor Francis Joseph to
the address of the delegations of Austria
Hungary at the reception held in the cas-
tie this morning at Buda.
| The emperor also made brief but i'm
Iportant reference to the Balkan situation,
saying:
Our unvaryng and friendly understanding
with the Russian empire concerning events
In the near east is conducive to the con-
tinued maintenance of order and tranquility
in those regions.
The emperor remarked that since the
last session the general political ~situa-
ton had in-no way undergone any ma
terial change. He paid a tribute to the
Austro Hungarian forces employed in the
China expedition. and referred to the ne
cessity for increased expenditure for the
artillery, for improving the naval stations
and for Indispensable increases in the per-
sonnet of the fleets and of the construc-
ton of Ships
The delegations addressed emphasized
the fact that complete preservation of the
peace largely depended on a strong and
lasting union of the economic forces of
the two halves Of the dual monarchy.
