Letter to Postmaster Woollet,
Mcconnellsburg, Pa.

Dear Sir: The hardest climate
for paint is Florida; and Devoe is
the longest wearing paint In that
state.
d. G. Smith, of Madison, Fla,
says: 81 painted my mothers
house Devoe II years ago, and to
day 1t looks better than other
houses IN town that we're painted
with other paint 3 or years ago.
Three or four and eleven.
This shows two things: (1) the
low standard of paint in that part
of the country; and (2) that Devoe
is the paint that wears.
1t doesn't show the whole fact,
which Is: Devoe Is the paint that
takes least gallons to do the job,
makes first cost by ratio of 2 to
3, 9 to 4, 2 to 5, 2 to 6, for the job.
Smith wasn't thinking about
the cost of the job; it was done a
long time ago. He was thinking
how well the house looks after II
years wear IN that hot climate,
and how long 1t will be before
painting again.
Yours truly

BURIED TREASURE bECKONS APTA|N
FAILED TWICE, He WILL TRY AGAIN

Victoria. b. c., Aug. 27.--This is
the true story of the Cocos Island
treasure. |, has often been told be
lore, but never with all the details
that are given today.
Captain Fred Hachett is the only
living man who knows the exact his
tory of the treasure, and the exact
spot where it is buried It is he who
tells the tale this tall whaling cap
tain. who has visited the very spot.
Il have stood over Millions he ex-
claims. "and only lack of equipment
prevented me from Wrestling the huge
hoard from its hiding place of over
seventy years"
The early history OF the treasure is
well known; how in 1888 the British
barhentine Mary Dier anchored one
night under a Peuyian fort near Cal
lao, how The anxious garrison, afraid
% their Chilean beslegers. placed the
great treasure under the protection
of the British flag; how Thompson and
the crew proved false to their trust,
and, fleeing through the night, buried
the Peruvian Millions, gold aud Jewels,
in the lonely island ot Cocos.
Returning thence they We're dismast-
ed by cyclone, captured and nine of
the eleven were hanged at the yard
arm. Thompson and Freuchman
were spared 10 guide their captors TO
the treasure But putting in,o Pana-
ma the fever came aboard and tho
two prisoners escaped from their ha-
rassed guards
They slid down the vessels side and
swan for a whaler which was leaving
the harbor. Sharks made the swim
% fa.al one for the Frenchman, and
Thompson clambered aboard. the sole
possessor Of the secret of the buried
millions.
All this is common knowledge; from
this point Captain Hatchett throws
fresh light on the old tale. He has
the story from the lips or keatins,
who now steps on the sage.

THREE PROBABLY PERISHED
Disastrous Fire Occurs in Stock Yards
at Rochester.

1t is thought three lives were lost
in a fire at Rochester The blaze &C.
Cured in the Chicago Great Western
stock yards and for time one section
of the city was threatened. The origin
of the fire is a mystery, but it is
thought it received it's start from the
victims of the fire and companion
who escaped
So far as can be learned four men
in a state of intoxication went into
the sheds and went to sleep. The
smoking of the men caused the blaze.
According to one who gives his
name as Cole and who was with the
men, his brother, George R. Cole, was
one of the victims. The metal parts
of a pocketbook have been found and
Cole says it was the property of his
brother. A search is being made for
the other two bodies.
The stock yards of the Chicago
Great Western are completely in
ruins and number of cattle belong
ing to H. A. Huney, a Rochester stock
buyer, also were consumed in the con

In TRYING TO SAVE CHILD
Winona Woman Decapitated by a
Street Car.

Mrs William Redmann, twenty-four
years old, of Winona, lost her life in
that city in attempting to save her
tWo-year-old child from being crushed
to death under the wheels of street
car in front of her home.
The mother was at work on the side
porch of her residence and the child
was playing in the street, when the
little one ran directly in the path of
rapidly approaching car. The woman
ran historically into the street in an
effort to save the baby.
But at the same moment the motor
man saw the child. He reversed the
power instantly, climbed to the front
of the coach and grasped the little
one, who was practically uninjured,
from the fender.
The frantic mother, however, STUN
bled and pitched head foremost under
the car between the front and rear
trucks. The wheels passed over the
neck and her head was practically sew.
cred from the body. Death was in.
