COIN FROM SPANISH WRECK.
Efforts to Locate Sunken Treasure on
"Money Beach,"

WoHoy oodSU'
Samuel Maddox an attorney of
Washington, D. c., has in his possess
sion a Spanish silver coin of the year
1873. which he found on the beach
near Ocean City, while enjoying a
promenade there in company with a
party of gentlemen. among whom were
several Baltimoreans, says the Balti-
more correspondent of the New York
Press. An interesting legend asso-
ciates itself with this bit Of money,
and, although the intrinsic worth OF
the coin could not have exceeded so
cents, it was valued highly by it's find
er and those who were with him.
The stretch of sand on which the
coin was found is known as the
Money Beach," 1t obtains its name
from a legend to the effect that some
time in the latter part Of the 18th CEN
tury a Spanish galleon, or treas
ure ship, was wrecked off the
coast. In support Of the legend a
number of Spanish silver coins have
been found upon the beach. In years
gone by many Of these coins are re-
ported to have been found but in re-
cent years their discovery has been
much less frequent.
The finding of the coins, among 9TH
er things, demonstrates how hard the
sandy bottom of the coast has become.
The coins, instead Of sinking, have
been gradually worked landward by
heavy storms. The old Spanish gal
leon must have foundered where the
water was sufficiently shallow for the
bottom to be disturbed by heavy seas,
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1907-10-04

and the coins after whatever they were
placed in had decayed gradually pass
ed over the surface OF the intervening
sandy bottom and appeared on the
shore. II the wreck had been in deep
er water the coins would undoubtedly
have remained where they sank.
Many efforts have been made not only
to find the bulk of the treasure OF this
old galleon, but to locate the hundreds
of millions Of dollars worth Of other
valuables, which in the lapse Of years
have disappeared in all quarters of the
worlds vast expanses Of water.
great portion Of this sunken wealth
becomes valueless in time, although
often supposedly perishable cargoes
remain uninjured at the bottom Of the
sea for a considerable time. Take. for
instance, a cargo of -four in bags.
When 1t goes down the outer portion
OF the flour in each bag forms paste
and protects the interior. In this way
about two thirds Of the cargo will re-
main in good condition for some time.
Tightly wrapped bales Of silk have
been taken from the sea in good con-
dition after having rested there sever
al years, the outer wrappings, soaked
with water, become water-tight and
protect the interior.

A PERSUASIVE NoTE.-He was a
motherless boy and his fathers only
child, but some Of the relatives had
decided that he should be sent to a
boys school, fifty miles from home,
and at last the father had agreed to
the plan.
Forty eight hours after his boys de-
parture the father received letter,
which, was, although not faultless as
an example Of spelling. so much to the
point. and so in accord with his own
feelings, that the plans for the future
were speedily readjusted.

all right here and I'm not homesick I
believe. but life is very short, and

Some men are thinkers. The
vast majority are not, but allow 9TH
ers to perform this most important
function for them. This statement Is
eminently true when 1t comes to the
matter Of buying life insurance, a
transaction that is really one OF the
most important in a business way,
with which any man has to deal.
There are in business in the United
States today something like 100 legal
reserve life insurance companies.
Some of these are better than 9TH
ers and Of course you know there Is
ONE best. There is always one best
In practically everything. The best
one Is the one that has the longest
cleanest record for square, upright
dealing with every policy holder Oh
member, and the one that guarantees
and has always guaranteed the most
insurance-and lives up to Its guar
antees-at the least cost. The history
Of the Mutual Benefit proves 1t to be
the Best company, and a careful in
vestigation of its record will convince
you of the fact. Don't depend on
somebody else. There is no mystery
about the problem. Don't let me o,
anybody else do your life insurance
thinking. Do 1t yourself. Look Be.

INExPERIHNcED.-A good story is
told of a disconcerting interruption
which Mr. Gladstone once experienced
when addressing woman suffrage
meeting in Leeds. In the course Of his
speech he paid graceful compliment
to the eloquence Of the ladies who had
previously spoken, and further gal
lantly remarked on the great pleasure
which it gives the other sex to listen
to women talking. Pausing for mo-
ment after this observation Mr.. Glad
stone, like his audience, was thrown
into an unexpected state Of merriment
by a male voice, which proceeded from
the back Of the hall and proclaimed in
the broadest Yorkshire dialect: "Eh,
lad, thou'st noanwed yet I seest.' -

In London.

The Reception the Princess Met With
In London.
Shakespeare was yet alive, and In
more or less active work, while this
strange procession, which I have de-
scribed, of natives Of Virginia, Guiana
and New England defiled through
English ports, writes Sidney Lee, In
Scribner's. OF most Of them the dra-
matist doubtless caught a glimpse.
But it was just after his death that
the most imposing Of Virginia visitors
reached London. Pocahontas, the
young daughter Of the Chief Powha-
tan, had conceived as a child a roman
tic attachment for the English set
tiers, and had, it was alleged, protect
ed more than one of them from the
murderous designs Of her kindred. AT
length she joined the newcomers as
willing hostage and in 1913, when not
more than IS years Of age, she boldly
defied all Indian and English conven-
tions by marrying an English settler
Immediately afterward she accepted
Christianity, and expressed anxiety to
visit her husbands Christian country
Accordingly, in the summer Of 1915
she arrived in the English capital with
her husband, an infant son, her broth
er Tamacoma and some native women
attendants.
A splendid reception was accorded
the Virginian princess State and
church combined to do her honor
James I received her and her brother
at court They attended a perform
ance at Whitehall OF a Twelfth Night
masque by Ben Jonson (January g.
1910, of which they spoke with ap-
prevail The bishop of London enter
tanned her with festival pomp." The
princess's portrait was painted and
engraved by distinguished artists
Her dignified bearing was generally
commended, although hints were CIV
en- by Ben Jonson that the princess
was occasionally seen. to the dismay
of her hosts, to enter tavern doors
Her entertainment. at any rate. seems
to have been thoroughly congenial to
her. and she was reluctant to shorten
her visit At the end Of ten months,
however, she travelled to Gravesend
with a view to embarkation for her
native land. But while tarrying at the
port. to the general grief, she fell Ill
and died. The parish register of
Gravesend describes her as "of Vir-
ginia, lady born"

THE OTHER WAY ARoUNp.-The 10y
atty Of the Scottish highlander to his
kilt is a picturesque thing. He will
never admit that it makes him cold,
and highlanders who were suffering
from cold In the ordinary dress Of civ
ilization have been known to substi-
tute the kilt for 1t in order to get
warm, though this would be much like
removing ones coat and waistcoat and
rolling up ones shirt sleeves for the
same purpose.
1t is said that a stranger, seeing a
soldier in full highlander uniform
shivering in a cold wind, asked him:
Sandy, are you cold with the kilt"
ma, ma, mon," the soldier answered
Indignantly, but I'm nigh kilt with
the cauld."

EARLY PRooF.-The head Of a print

The printer answered that the time
allowed was insufficient You must
give US a few days longer" he said
mo; l must have it tomorrow" in
sisted the minister. II must deliver
this sermon tomorrow-not the day
after or the next day-but tomorrow.
It's a special sermon, suitable only for
tomorrow. I wrote 1t ten years ago,
and now ! can't make out word Of
It."

WITHOUT FEAR OF MAN.
Tame Birds and Beasts In the Adiron-
dack Woods-Camp Fare.

A thing that strikes the chance
wanderer through the wilderness OF
the Adirondacks is the tameness OF
the birds and beasts, as IL they had
hardly learned to fear men as hunters
says an Osgood Lake correspondent
of the New York Sun. A guide who
goes daily from this lake to a neigh
boring hotel garden has seen morning
after morning within a few yards OF
the place where the gardeners are al
work a mother grouse with her brood
of IL or Is chicks.
Each time the hen has displayed
herself freely almost at the feet Of the
human intruder, all the while giving
a little warning cry to her brood, at
which every chick disappears as If by
magic. 1t is the belief Of the natives
that the grouse chicks actually cover
themselves with dead leaves. Much
more probably they melt by reason OF
their color into the general surface OF
last years fallen leaves until they can
Bet W COfcI diuOi6 tiC piubCiiiCo'
The ruffed grouse, even when unen-
numbered by a family, surprises one
in these parts by its tameness. These
birds love to haunt the edge Of old
wood roads, and they are sometimes so
Indifferent to the presence of man
that they will permit him to approach
within a few feet.
Spruce grouse, with that pretty red
tassel-like mark close to the ear which
distinguishes the male, are found in
the wilderness, chiefly in the hardwood
highlands, but also on the edge of
marshy plains. These birds again are
curiously tame and easily approached.
Aquatic fowls are also oddly indif-
ferent to the presence Of men. Black
ducks, which are found in punches of
four or five in the streams that feed
or drain this lake, rise ahead Of boat
within easy gunshot and often settle
again just around the next turn. A
flock used to frequent the lake within
sight of two camps and conduct them
selves more like barnyard fowls than
wild creatures.
If the black duck is Indifferent, the
mud hen Is stupid. IT sits silent and
unmoved as a boat passes almost
within reach Of oar or paddle, and
rises unwillingly at the nearer ap-
proach of the human intruder only to
settle again at no great distance.
Sometimes a mud hen will repeat this
performance three or four times.
AS tame as any of the birds Is the
native red squirrel. Its ticking chat
ter is heard from all the trees all
along the lake, through the neighbor-
ing hills and up and down the
streams.
There was q pest of red squirrels at
one time on an inhabited island in
this lake. The mischievous little
creatures ran Familiarity about the
porches and carried off all sorts Of
small articles. When the island camp
was opened one summer great num-
ber Of dry and hard currant buns
were found slowed away in hiding
place selected by the squirrels. The
buns must have been snatched from
time to time when set out to cool by
the cook. Why the squirrels had not
eaten their carefully stored provender
It is hard to guess.

ment being of the opinion that when
in possession of this information it
will be in a position to keep track of
the wine from the grower to the dealer

Another clause Of the bill at first in

number of deputies voted against
the proposal and Finance Minister
Caillaux announced that the govern
ment had decided to reduce the supple

which was adopted. The measure also
greatly restricts the market for alco-
hol produced from grapes and beets,
which resulted in the introduction of
