A Sore DisappOintment.

New York, July 6.-Having found
the hidden treasure Of the Pirates
Main" James Murphy, Of Cannon
Lake, Staten Island, is today hunting
for the miscreant who made the
plant"
For twenty-five years Murphy has
been tramping the Staten Island woods,
seeking treasure trove. He just knew
Captain Kidd or some other bold pirate
had left his loot on the island. Yester-
day he found q great chest deep in the
woods, and struggled home with it.
We're rich at last, he told his wife.
Now we'll buy an automobile and go
to Europe" But the wife, unbelieying
called in the village jeweler, who said
the gold coins" were pennies gilded
over" the pieces Of eight" we're lead
dipped In quicksilver, and the rare
Jewels were about rs pasty as we're ever
made. Murphy swears he can lick the
man who made the plant"

CLOSING or

The closing Of one-third the saloons
in Great Britain before the end OF
the year, as the result of the increased
license fees under the new budget
is predicted today, following the first
davis collection of fees. The fees
are governed by the rental value OF
the property occupied by the saloons,
and they average $1,000 under the
new budget as against about $500 un-
der the old. This quadrupling OF
the tax put hundreds of saloons out OF
business yesterday. Thousands OF sa-
loon proprietors are paying their IL
cense fees this year i'll the hope that
the cutting down of the number OF
saloons will so increase their business
that it will be profitable despite the
increased tax. If this does not prove
the case, probably a third OF the re-
manning saloons will voluntarily 60
out OF business next year.

DAUGHTERS OF LEE AND SHEER
MAN MEET.

One of the most interesting incidents
at the brilliant reception at Dorchester
House, London, on Monday, did not
escape observing eyes. Two ladies
stood behind Mrs. Reid for a long time
while the visitors were pressing rapid
ly up the staircase. Whenever there
was a brief break in the line they bent
forward and eagerly chatted with their
hostess. As these Interruptions seldom
came, they we're content to talk with
each other in q most friendly way.
These ladies were the daughters Of Gen
eral Sherman and General Robert F..
Lee, as happily reconciled as though
there had never been a civil war OF
baleful memories.
