CARRY TREASURE IN SAFETY.
Ships With Specie on Board No Long
er Fear Pirates.

er Fear Pirates.
An ocean steamship carrying near
ly Sloooo000 In gold is advertised to
sail this week from New York to Eu-
ropean ports. A few weeks ago an
other steamship carried $I,0o0,0G0 in
gold TO Europe. and heavy shipments
Of gold from Europe to America or
from America to Europe are of COM
mon occurrence. Many a vessel sail
ing from Alaska to San Francisco car
ries more OF the precious metals than
did the famous galleons of Spain in
the eighteenth century.
The vessel to sail this week with
sold as ballast will carry three times
as much bullion and coin as was car
ried by the whole feet of Spanish
treasure ships captured by the British
in 1904. This ore modern vessel car
ries ten times as much gold to Europe
as was carried by any treasure ship
that sailed the Spanish main in the
time of the old buccaneers.
In the seventeenth and eighteenth
centuries the treasure ships sailing
from Mexico and South America and
from the Indies were objects of inter-
est to nations at war and to buccan-
ncars and pirates. Free5ooting expe-
| ditions were organized to capture
them and fleets were maneuvered
with the treasure they carried in
mind. The sailing of a treasure ship
! brought the buccaneers of American
waters into action, and there was no
safety even when the treasure ships
were guarded by war vessels.
The Western seas were then a high
way beset with pirates and freeboot-
ers, acting often in the name Of Eng
land, France or Holland, but always
| with plunder in mind. These free
bcoters became so strong that they
not only conducted campaigns against
the treasure ships of Spain, but or
| ganized governments and captured
and held cities
Nothing affords sharper contrast
between the conditions of a hundred
or two hundred years ago and now
than the sailing of the modern treas
TIRE ships from American ports. No
secret is made of their sailing, and
the amount Of gold and silver carried
is published to the world No expedi.
tions are organized 10 waylay them,
no plots are corcocted to destroy or
capture them.
Under the rules of the nations gov
erning ocean traffic. the treasure shin
is as safe at sea as is the fishing
smack. There are no outlaws of the
sea, and there is no outlawry on the
sea, because civilization united to sup
press piracy in all its forms. and tc
make the ocean safe for all commerce

Recently the Topeka Mail and
Breeze offered d prize for the oldest
instance Of popping the question.
The prize was won by Mrs. Fanny r.
Bevard Of Abilene She locates her
story in western Kansas settlement
A large family lived in a very small
house. In one corner OF the single
room the old folks had their bed, and
above it was a swinging bed attached
to the rafters that was occupied by the
boys. Mrs. Bevard completes the
story as follows:
''On this particular evening a neigh
boris girl, who was also the oldest
boys sweetheart. was there visiting
the girls, and she stayed all night
with them. With games and songs
and lots of laughing and talking the
evening passed and bedtime came.
Miss Jessie being their company
the girls gave her the front of the bed,
and there was one small girl who slept
with the older girls and Jessie.
THE boys went to bed above, and
OF course, the oldest slept on the front
side. Soon all were quiet, and the
anxious lover, supposIng all, or near
ly all, in slumber, stuck his head out
over his berth: Jessie, are you
asleep?
No was the whispered answer
