THE TOWN OF SALISBURY.

Salisbury, the scene Of the disaster. is on the
main line of the London & Southwestern Rail-
road. eighty-three miles from Waterloo Station
1t is a town Of about twenty thousand inhabi-
tants, pleasantly situated at the confluence of
three small rivers, the Wiley, the Avon and the
Bourne. 1t is the site of the well known Sails
bury Cathedral which was constructed in 1920
and is one Of the best and purest examples of
early English architecture. The town and the
cathedral owe their existence to the fact that

When Gold Failed.

Burke Cochran said that no man
with s10,000,000 could be put in jail
in this country, and that statement
fairly well represents the estimate of
the power of money that prevails with
many people. Yet there are occasions
when money is absolutely powerless.
One of these occurred at the time of
the wreck of the Valencia.
Among those who are supposed to
have persisted when the vessel went to
pieces was ]. B. Graham. He had re-
Gently sold a mine in Alaska for $780,
900, and part of the proceeds of this
sale he carried with him in gold in a
bag. This bag went down with Ora
ham.
Those who were rescued say that he
made frantic efforts to induce others
to save him, offering all his bag of
gold; but none needed him, and his
precious sack lay on the broken deck,
kicked here and there, unnoticed and
unvalued in that trying time. 1t was
the hour when gold failed, as it al
ways fails when held beside the hope
of life.
Said one of the survivors: I'm
coming into a safe harbor without a
cent Why, even this shirt l have on
belongs to another man, and l have
not even hat. But that bag of gold,
or even that ship loaded with gold,
would not tempt me into such a place
