President Taft's recent message to
congress asking that 1t be determined
whether the Spanish men-of war sunk
in the battle of Santiago thirteen years
ago should be given away and Secre-
tary Knox's opinion that the wrecks
belong to the United States have re-
vived speculation as to the possibility
of relocating the ships. Engineers
who have studied the location of the
three battleships and two torpedo
boats think salvage Is practicable and
would warrant its expense.
Seven miles west Of the narrow
mouth to Santiago CUBA harbor lies
the first of Cervera's bottled up battle
ships, the Almirante Oquendo. She is
beached In the breakers of Juan Con
zales, with about one-third of her hulk
visible above the whitecaps. Long
ago she was stripped of every portable
article by wreckers who braved a wa
terry grave for the prizes she was re-
puted to have held. They took every
thing they could pry loose. including,
report has 1t, many thousand golden
coins from the ships safe. Recent in.
specti0n has shown that the Almirante
Oquendo was looted OF even the copper
rivets which held her fixtures in place

miles from Santiago, Is the third of
the four Spanish ships, the Cristobal
Colon. The Colon has been preserved
from the hand of the vandal by four
fathoms of water above her. Locked
In her safe there Is said to be q large
amount of money. Aboard her moth
ing has been disturbed since she was
silenced by American guns and run
ashore to prevent her capture The
water is comparatively deep at the
point where she lies, and the land
rises abruptly from the sea. a sheer
precipice of considerable proportions
Her salvage probably would be the
most difficult of the three. engineers
assert.
The history of the fourth vessel OF
the fleet. the Infanta Maria Teresa, Is
well known. She was tioated by Lieu
tenant Richmond p. Hobson of Merri-
mac fame and lost off Cat island, In
the West Indies, while in tow of an
American war vessel on her way to
an American port during squall

far from the harbor entrance. The

BILE articles from her deck and cabins
have been recovered. The Furor is
practically undisturbed. Both lie In

Mr.. r. D. Shepherd has sold his "Wild
Goose Farm" three miles north of Shep-
herdstown. to Mr.. Edwin S. Jarrett, Of
New York. The place contains 1874 acres

ted the first of the week, and Mr.. Jarrett

Wild Goose Farm is one of the most
desirable estates in Jefferson county. 1t

eral generations, and much money was
spent upon it by the late Henry Shepherd,
from whom it was inherited by R. D.
Shepherd. II has upon it a large dwell
ing-house, fine barn and out-buildings OF
every sort, costly dairy OF cut stone,
and beautiful avenue OF old trees leads
from the mansion to the famous Shepherd

dation Company has amassed large
fortune. He is a comparatively young
man, and has charming wife and two

make this place his permanent home. He
contemplates extensive Improvements

plant large apple orchards We hope
that he and his family may find our COM
munity TO their liking and that it will be
their pleasure to take part in our coan-
try life.
Mr.. and Mrs. Shepherd naturally feel a
good deal OF regret at parting from their
lovely home, but they have desired for
some time past to come to town, and they
will now either buy or build home here
if they can find place to their liking.
