VAST TREASURE WRECKS BENEATH WATERS OF INLAND SEAS

part of the treasure which awaits re-
covery in the inland seas. In 1S46 the
Lexington, Capt. Peer, cleared from
Cleveland for Port Huron with car
60 of 110 barrels Of whisky. The ship
foundered in midlake with all on
board. To-day the whisky is worth
$115 per barrel The Anthony Wayne
sank in Lake Erie with 300 barrels of
whisky and wine on board. The West
moreland sank with a similar cargo,
1t Is said that coal worth $5,000,000
awaits recovery.
A terrible event on the inland seas
was the loss of the steamer Atlantic
off Long Point, Lake Erie, with 300
lives Not until quarter of cen
fury had passed was trace Of the ship
found. Treasure worth 100000 was
taken from her. The Griffin, built by
La Sale at the foot of Lake Erie in
January, 1879 sailed across Lake Erie,
up the Detroit river and entered Lake
Michigan She started on the return
trip In the fall of 1850 with $4,000
in furs on board. She was never
heard Of.
Treasure hunters are now seeking
the $4,000 copper cargo that went
down with the steamer Pewabic in a
collision with the Meteor in August,
1865. The Pewabic went down in Lake
Huron off Thunder Bay island. Five
men have lost their lives in attempts
to recover her cargo. The new attempt

PRICE OF AUTOGRAPHS UP.
Use of the Typewriter Makes Writ


ten Manuscript More Valuable.
The tendency to use the typewriter,
according to collectors of rare manu-
scripts, is to increase gradually but
surely the value of autographs. 1t is
becoming difficult to find any but type
written letters of eminent men of this
era, especially those in public Office.
The raise in price, however, Is notice
able also in the letters of distinguish
ed persons of past generations. The
autographs of the eminent men of the
revolutionary period, for instance, are
each season commanding higher fig
ures. The latest sale at Anderson's of
autographs furnishes proof of this up
ward tendency of prices for important
items, the New York Times says. It
so happened that some of the inter-
esting letters had been sold only a
few years ago in New York, Philadel-
phia or Boston.
Thus a letter of Robert Benson,
Sept. 10, 1880, to Col. Richard Varick,
relating to passes given to tories by
Gen. Horatio Gates, and telling of
Clinton's confidence in Benedict Ar
mold, whose treason was discovered
two days later, fetched only 81 at a
sale by Stan. V. Henkels in Philadel-
phia in 1906, but now 1t realized Sal.

cargoes disappeared suddenly and mys-
teriously, as II smuggled away by an
unseen power. Most of thsse cargoes
remain to this day for lucky fortune
hunters. In the wrecking Of $4,000
ships thousands Of lives were snuffed
out and unwrltten acts Of heroism

Not many years ago a treasure ship
came down from the North, the VIE
liam H. Stevens loaded with $101 $50
worth Of copper. She went down off
Conneaut, o. Unavailing efforts to re-
cover her treasure were made until
Capt. Harris w. Baker, Detroit, fitted
out modern treasure-hunting expedi-
ton. He recovered 100000 of the
cargo, his share of the treasure being
$4,000 On the south shore of Lake
Erie, between Erie and Dunkirk, the
steamer Dean Richmond lies with $780,
900 in zinc on board The Richmond
disappeared between these two ports
and the bodies of the crew were
washed ashore. Lake Huron is called
the Lake Of the Sunken Treasure"
Near Saginaw bay are more lost ships
with valuable cargoes than in any 9TH

City Of Detroit, with $4,000 copper
cargo; r. G. Coburn, 100000 copper
cargo and the steamer Fay, with $780,

Point Pelee with much money in her
hulk. Eight men lost their lives on

Chambers in u Man.

Chambers is a disease of horses, but
one from which, unfortunately, human
beings are not entirely exempt. For
merly cases of human glanders were
thought to be exceedingly few and far
between, the statistics of the registrar
general in England, for example, show
ing a mortality of only one or two
year. Latterly, however, with i'm
proved means of diagnosis at our COM
mand, it has been proved that many
persons have had glanders and died OF
it with the real nature of the disease
Unrecognized.
The ulcers have been diagnosed as
tuberculosis, as those of typhoid, OF
smallpox, or of some form of blood
poisoning, and they have been treated
accordingly, with, of course, fatal re-
suits; for glanders is very dreadful
disease, the cure of which depends
upon prompt and radical measures.
To-day there is no excuse for any
failure in correct diagnosis, because
the special bacillus causing glanders-
called the Bacillus mallei-is peculiar
to this disease.
1t is naturally those whose work
keeps them in close contact with horses
who are most in danger of glanders,
and 1t has also been known to attack
several members of family where the
father worked in a stable, and one
case has been reported where a wash
erwoman caught it from infected cloth
ing.
Chambers may be either acute or
chronic. There may be slow success
sion of assesses attacking the mus
cles, or crawling along the lymphatic
system for months. Sometimes, after
surgical treatment, these assesses will
heal, and there will be no further
symptoms; sometimes a slow chronic
case will suddenly burst out into a
violent acute one, and death ensue.
Other cases are acute from the first,
and may be mistaken for blood-poison-

eruption appears, too late for any treat.
ment to be Of avail.
AS to the treatment, there is little
that is cheerful to be said. Thorough
cutting out of the local sore is the
one and only thing on which to, pin
any faith. Attempts have been made
to get an antitoxic serum, but so far
these have not been successful.
The best fight against glanders has
been In the line of eradication of the
disease by means of the mallein test
on all suspicious animals. Any horse
which reacts to this test is at once
killed. In England it is now the rule
that most of the large stables are reg
ularly tested with mallein.
Stablemen and all people working
round horses should be taught the val
ue of cleanliness, and especially the
need of great care when troubled with
any abrasion of the skin or oper
wound, however small.

EARLY LETTER ON THE UNION.

DIR. Rush Feared a TOO Quick Peace
with England Would Be Harmful.
One Of the finest specimens Of let
ters In a recent sale of autographs by
Stan v Henkels in Philadelphia, was
written on April Is, 1882, by DR.. Ben
jamin Rush, a signer Of the declara-
tion of independence, to Maj.-Gen.
Nathaniel Greene, says the New York
Times
DR.. Rush was physician-general of
the revolutionary army also. He prac-
ticed his profession in Philadelphia
and during the yellow fever epidemic
there in 1888 he treated it success
fully and 1t has been estimated that
he saved from death no less than
5000 persons.
He was a firm supporter of the fed
eral constitution and his letter Is
chiefly about that subject. He says:
at Is true France has done wonders
for US. But may not even this have
q beneficial effect on our country here
after. 1t seems intended by heaven to
teach us the necessity of perpetual
union and confederation. If the COM
bined force of all the States was un-
equal to the power of Britain, what
can be expected from the spirit or re-
sources of any one of them? | am so
perfectly satisfied that the future
peace, safety, freedom Of America
depend upon our union that
view the debt Of our country
with pleasure, especially that part
Of 1t we owe to ourselves.
Our danger at present arises
principally from two causes. First, a
too speedy peace with Britain, and,
second, from Britain's acknowledging
our independence. | wish the first
may. be deferred till a naval war has
given us as many fleets and admirals
as a land war has given us armies and
generals. The last event would I'M
nerve the resentments Of America and
introduce among us all the conse-
Quence of English habits and manners
with English manufactures. To pre-
vent this and enable us to transmit
our feeling to posterlty, | wish Brit
ain for fifty years to come may con-
tinue In all her acts of government to
call US rebels and 'deluded subjects.
We stand in need Of all the follies
and vices of our enemies to give us a
national character"
On Sept, %, 1888, the definitlve
treaty of peace was signed, by which
the Independence of the thirteen
United States was acknowledged by
Great Britain. 1t was not, however
until after Jays treaty In 1874 that
this original treaty of peace was fully
executed by Great Britain.

Legal Information

The New York Building Code, Sec
tions 153-155, provides that, on the
refusal of an owner of an unsafe
building to make it safe or remove
it, a report Of the building shall be
made to court, which, II 1t finds
that the building is unsafe, shall COM
mand the commissioner Of buildings to
take 1t down or make 1t safe, and that
the expense thereof shall constitute
a lien on the premises. Section 157
provides that If a building collapses
the city may remove the debris, to be
paid for out Of the fund, under Sec
tion 1853. In the case of In re Jenkins,
lis New York Supplement, 1856, such
provisions are construed by the New
York Supreme Court, and 1t Is held
that the city has no lien on property
for expenses incurred in removing de-
bris of collapsed building and the
bodies Of people buried beneath the
ruins, and is directly liable to the

the house and made search from

liquors, and strongly suspecting they
were somewhere concealed about the
house, they broke into and tore out
a strip from the interior walls of the
rooms below stairs entirely round each
room, and dropped the debris upon the
floors and carpets. All this was done
in the hope OF finding, not the liquors,
but some pipe or other clue leading
to the liquors, The officers then de.

Massage and Care Still Fail to De-

What saddens me most" said the
Western woman, on her first visit to
Atlantic City, 'is not the tiresome
monotony of all these directoire
gowns, but the expressionless same
ness of the faces above them. What
has become of all the fine old lines
of character and individuality?'
Been massaged away" was the
laughing reply; Skin food and a
trained masseuse for an hour every
day, with a cup of chocolate and a
nap after it, and once begun, the
process has to be kept up, or the
wrinkles show worse than before.
"You are an unsophisticated ranch
woman" the speaker continued, smil-
ing up into the fine, mobile face over
which a flush of astonishment and
scorn was creeping; "and | am busy
wife and mother, with neither the
time nor the money to waste in elab-i
crate defenses against ugliness and
wrinkles. Perhaps in her old age we
may benefit others by being hor-,
rible warning to them"
The two women were swallowed up
by the crowd on the board walk. In
spite of their silvery hair, artistically
dressed, without monstrosities of puffs
and pompadours, their faces glowed
with youthfulness and animation
bespeaking sturdy living, mental alert
ness, forces long maturing and years
we'll spent. Their handsome hats and
gowns, which seemed to clothe rather

the grace. dignity and elasticity OF

pressed so close to them that she

live to be hundred their faces would
