WHAT HAS BECOME OF
THAT BUNCH OF GOLD.
Boxes Of the Precious Metal Mysterious
" Disappear From Wreck
of Vessel.

An incident of the wreck OF the
steamer Elingamite on the coast of New
Zealand on November 9, 1902. was the
loss of a number of cases OF gold. of
the value Of f17.S0o. Since then sew
eral expeditions have sought to recover
the treasure. The last of the series OF
expeditions returned 10 wellington q
few days ago. 1t reports having found
the wreck. but that the cases of gold
have disappeared.
The first attempt was made by an
Auckland syndicate, but the seekers
of the ship. Another expedition located
the wreck, bat dimculties arose and the
expedition was fruitless.
The third expedition was dispatched
by a Wellington publican named Cow
He made elaborate preparations and
the vessel had great send-o1- The
effort to find the treasure, however.
failed. owing 10 rough weather, but the
Adventures were able to assure them
selves that the gold was there, and
easily accessible under fine weather
conditions.
So they sat down TO wait for mid
summer. When the summer came they
began making preparations anew-and
while they were preparing there arrived
vague drifting story or three Amerf-
cans who a little while before had land
ed at Auckland, ostensibly for deep-sea
fishing, but with an equipment not
usually held to be necessary on fishing
excursions. The story ended with three
cheerful Americans drinking wine riot
ously on a mail steamer bound from
Auckland for San Francisco and max
ing cryptic references TO the Elinga-
mite.
No Importance was attached to this
at the moment, but IL has gained a good
deal of significance in view of the re-
port of the expedition which has just
returned. This is that the sunken yes
sci has been shattered, as If by ex-
p1osives, and that there is no sign what
ever of the gold that was plainly seen
six or seven months ago.

PROPHETS IN CONVENTION
PREDICT END Of WORLD
Differ on Details but Agree That Great
Catastrophe VIII Occur In
1929 or 1871.

Terrible predictions concerning what
will happen to the poor old earth dur
ing the next twenty-five years were
made the other day at Exeter Hall. The
prophets OF the disaster, a large num-
ber of whom were ciergymen, were in
attendance at a prophetic and second
advent conference"
While they differed IN the details. all
agreed that the end Of the world was
at hand. They were not quite sure
whether the final catastrophe will come
on May 9. 1929, or April 9, 1891, but
were quite sure that one Of these dates
Will prove to be the right one
There can be no doubt that the world
has nearly outlived it's usefulness. the
prophets declared. and wars and earth
quakes which have AFFLICTED 1t recently
are proof positive. and all that Is re-
quired to fulfill the prophecies IS the
coming of anti-Christ. who is unkindly
Identified with Napoleon.
He will make his first political ap-
pearance as King of Syria, but IN 1922
he will attack and conquer France. then
will extend his rule of the other king
dOms.
There will be 10000. 900 Christians In
the world at this time. the prophets
declare, but evidently they will not be
equally deserving Of favor. for in 1924
or 1928 $4,000 of them viii be trans
lated TO heaven. while the other
$3.50, 900 will be transported to the des-
ert near Mount Sinai, where they will
have 10 wait three and half years

ment OF that time evidently are 10 be a

DOGS SHOULD NOT BE
ALLOWED IN STABLES
They Are No Longer Considered as
Good Companions for Fast
Trnf4era.

Dogs are no longer the correct thing
as stable companions OF horses some
years ago every trotter or PAGER OF
prominence. and a good many OF no
distinction, had a faithful dog in It's
stall. and there was a sort OF suDersti-
tion among trainers that a d0gless
horse would not amount TO much.
Real champions always had dogs.
Way back IN the days OF Goldsmith
Maid. that wonderful mare was ac-
companied on her travels by a small
Scotch terrier. for which the old mare
had some affection, although she was
jealous OF the beast. and when "Old
Charlie" who took care OF the mare
and slept in the stall with her and the
dog. made too much OF the terrier. the
mare would run the dog out OF the
place without ceremony. And when
finally the dog disappeared for good
the mare did not seem to miss it.
Cats take naturally 10 horses. and
most horses like cats. The GOdolphin
Arabian. founder Of the English thor
oughbred family of today. that figures
IN Eugene Sues works as the nOblest
animal OF its kind. had for companion
a cat that slept on the stations back
and fed from his manger. But in the
necessities Of modern campai sning cats
are too apt to be lost TO make them
few are seen. although now and then
one turns up at a minor meeting.
At Cleveland a couple of summers
ago one trainer had four tame doves
that could not be induced to leave his
horses and that when the stable moved
from one town 10 another were always
ready to go into their cage for ship
ment.
Some trainers object 10 having dogs
with the horses. Peter v. Johnston.
who has brought out some OF the best
nags on the harness turf says no dogs
in his. He had one along some years
ago and II made friends with the best
horse in the string. One day the trot-
ter accidentally stepped on the dogs
toes while moving about in the stall.
whereat the cur snapped back and
nearly severed a hind tendon for the
trotter, running a $4,000 racing propo-
sition in an instant.
John Turner never had a dog along
in all the years he campaigned trotters.
Also be steered clear of black horses.
Not any sable nags in Turner's barn
after one year of terrifying experience.
He had always known they were bad
Black Frank. a trotter that looked like
the real thing. He went lame before
he had been in the barn a day. and
then misfortunes followed one another
until finally Nettie. the best trotting
race mare Of that day. lay down and
died. Turner Is now with the runners.
but his antipathy TO black horses is
still rampant.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Organ Grinders Trick.

An Italian who had been grinding
out a wheezy waltz on hurdygurdy
went into the corner drug store and
asked the clerk IL there were any sick
folks in the block.
mol" thundered the clerk. There
are not. and If there were I wouldn't
tell YOU"
The italian backed awkwardly- to
the door.
s.why did you ssnout at him like
that ?" asked a customer. He didn't
mean any harm"
Didn't he2" said the clerk. He
meant all sorts of harm That is a
pet-trick of theirs. They try to find
out from the druggists where the sick
people live, so they can hustle right
down in front of the windows where
a man lies i'll or dying and grind out
tunes till silence is purchased at a
liberal figure. Before I got onto their
scheme / used to give the desired in
formation, but the neighbors finally
got TO the point of accusing me of tax
ing a rakeoh, so now / shoe them
away."-N. Y Sun.

prince Charming, of wales.

sBy hemlock. said the Prince of
Wales, have a wee nipple, boyF
Nav, thanks replied the caddie, "but
I'm q teetotaler."
The incident occurred several years
ago at the end Of the eighteen holes
on a golf course. The Prince, then
Duke of York. paused for a moment
for a well-earned refreshment. absent
mindedly offering his flask to his
caddie. Commencing the caddie for his
morality and foresight, the Duke
apologized and offered the boy some
thing more substantial-a ham sand
witch.
The caddie took it graciously, his
royal master took another, and Prince
and pauper stood to their meal with the
simple and equal gusto of health.
Such is the democracy Of the future
King of England. and such his fond
ness for homely language.
They still tell another story OF him,
says the Boston Transcript 1t comes
from the lips OF a Mediterranean
ship was lying in Malta harber. waiting
for visit from the Duke of York.
This captain said to one of his officers:
"As soon as you see the Prince COM
ing off. man the yards at once, and
send for me TO my cabin"
Shortly afterward the captain heard
boat alongside. which was followed
by the voice of the young officer say
ing in a Querulous, high-pitched tone
TO the passenger who was stepping
on board: II say. when's that Prince
coming? I wish he'd look sharp; I'm
tired Of waiting"
"Awfully sorry" was the reply; 'I
came of on purpose as quietly as
could I thought you'd want to man the
yards OF something of that sort.
