Seek Spanish Pirates Gold.

! On voyage in quest of $780,
900 in Spanish gold, said to have been
hidden by pirates long ago on little
island in the Spanish Main, Capt.
iSmall, with his crew Of one, in the
iforty-five foot yawl Catherine, of Liy-
ierpool, has arrived at st. Georges.
The crew of the Catherine have al
ready tasted of the excitement that
usually accompanies a search for pr
rate treasure, having weathered a
terrific storm, which for time
threatened to send the fifteen-ton
craft to the bottom, and later foated
for days becalmed on sea as smooth
AS glass until starvation threatened
the mariners.
Said to have been planted more
than 100 years ago by the famous
pirate Latrobe, the resting place OF
the treasure, according to Capt.
Small, has been fixed almost to GER
tainty. After refitting, the Catherine
will set out for the spot.

BARGAIN HUNTERS ARE
THE SENSIBLE WOMEN
The Woman Who Does NOT Hunt Bar.
gains MISSES Opportunities.
BY Arthur Brisbane.

Some foolish friend has asked us:
why do you not denounce the bar
gain-counter mania? Is it because
you are delighted to have the adver-
Using that tho bargain counters
bring?"
We are delighted to have the ad-
vertising that the bargain counters
bring, or any other honest advertis-
ing. We believe that the newspapers
are important to a community and
that they do good. And we know
that a newspaper like this, which
costs good many millions year to
produce, and which is cold to the
buyer for a good deal less than 1t
costs, could not possible live except
for the energy of merchants and
other advertising men.
At the same time, advertising does
not influence our opinions. Business
men know that, and others can find
out by experimenting.
We do not oblige our correspondent
by denouncing the bargain counter.
for instance, because we believe and
we know that the wise woman &C.
tually profits by bargain advertise
ments invariably-we assume that
she does not buy what she does not
want because it is cheap.
Bargains are published sometimes
in order to bring women to the store.
A merchant is willing to sell them
one or two things at a very low
price, even for less than the actual
cost, trusting that while buying the
bargain they will be attracted by
something else on which he makes a
reasonable profit.
One department store always sells
and delivers sugar, one of life's sta
pies, for less than 1t actually costs
the merchant to buy it wholesale.
Another merchant sells another
staple, necessity of everyday life,
for less than it actually costs him
always with the idea of bringing
women to the store.
Often merchants have extraordi-
nary opportunities Of purchasing be-
low the usual market rate. They
give their customers the advantage Of
these opportunities, and while they.
the storekeepers, make a profit on
the transaction, the customer gets
valuable supplies for mcuh less than
the ordinary cost.
In other cases merchants Compel
ing with one another cut prices re-
CARELESS of actual cost, in the effort
to show more staying power or COM
mercial courage than rival.
The intelligent woman is able to
identify the various bargains offered
for these reasons and others, in good
stores, and she combines with all the
joys Of the chase the excitement of a
shopping trip and the exercise of
judgment, the pleasure of getting
something for a very reasonable price
or for less than it is actually worth
The woman who does not study the
bargains, compare prices and seize
opportunities, especially il she has
a family to provide for with limited
income, is neglecting one of the duties
and one of the amusements of a wo-
mans life in America in the twentieth
century.-From an editorial in the
New York Journal.

the problem. A revokable license

TAX ON BACHELORS
Assessor of a New Jersey Town Says That Each One Must
 Pay $1OO.

Atlantic City, N. J., Aug 16.-As- sessor Henry Alexander of the town of Absecon has taken it upon him. self to impose tax of $100 on each bachelor in his Jurisdiction. The first intimation of 1t came when Frank Hamill, wealthy bachelor, apeared before the assessor and wanted to know why his taxes had been raised $1OO.
 Was that tax put on me because l am bachelor" asked Hamili jokingly. The smile left his face when Alexander said:
 That's exactly why it was put on your bill" The assessor declared further that bachelors should not protest over paltry sum like that
 when they escaped the cares and expenses of raising families
 Following the announcement that Hamill had been practically fined for remaining single, other rich bach. elors discovered that they, too, had been asked to pay extra taxes this year, and the single men of Absecou are talking of banding together to carry protest before the state board, and, If necessary, to the courts.

HE STOLE $s,OoO
Trusted Government Employe is Now Under Arrest al
 Boston
FELLOW CLERK IN IT

Boston, Aug. 16.-J. Warren Hast ings, since 1864, trusted official at the United States sub-treasury in this city, was arrested to-day by secret service officers on the charge of embedding from the government $3,000 in cash on June 7 last.
 The money was taken from a pack age containing s105,O ,O0O in bills pre- pared for shipment to Washington to be retired from circulation and the shortage was made good by another clerk who technically was responsible but who at no time was under sus- picion.
 The officials at the sub-treasury regarded Hastings as wholly trust worthy, his record for 43 years ser vice having been practically fault less. The one who made good the shortage because of his technical re- sponsibility was J. H. Vassar, the specie clerk, who counted the money previous to shipments The restitu- tion on his part practically wiped away his life savings.
 The shortage was discovered by one of the women clerks at the treas ury department at Washington, who found three $1,000 bills missing. For time it was thought that there had either been a clerical error or else that the money had been abstracted during transmission by express. In vestigation showed that the robbery took place in Boston and secret ser vice officials finally singled out Hast ings who was the vault clerk at the sub-treasury and who had access to the vaults after business hours for examination. Hastings, when ques- tioned by the officers, 1t is said, quib- bled about his bank account. Three weeks ago the man went away on his vacation trip. His box at the sub treasury was opened and found to contain $4,950.
 Hastings returned this week, and to-day was arrested by United States Marshall Darling and two secret ser vice officers. He collapsed when he was notified and it was some minutes before he could be taken before United States Commissioner Hayes for arraignment. He was held in S5,- 900 bonds for further hearing.
 Hastings is 65 years of age. He is not married.
