QUEST OF BURIED GOLD

The announcement that San Diego treasure
seekers have found the hoard of gold reputed
to have been coached by the crew of a Chilean
cruiser on the Honduras coast generation ago
will stimulate the search for buried treasure
everywhere, from Nova Scotia, where CAPTAIN
klddS SpOils yet remain to be located to the
Spanish main, says the New York World. And
doubtless new attempt will be made to find
Lafitte's plumber on the gulf coast Meanwhile
news is awaited Of the success of the Brazilian
party OF scientists and government officials who
set out to discover the golden treasure hidden
on the island of Trinidad
The doubts of the skeptics must be set at
rest by the find of the San Diego searchers.
even though subsequent developments NAV
largely discount the report that the treasure
is worth anywhere from $l5OOOOOO TO $65
ooo,oO0 But IN fact just enough buried treas
ure Is dlslnterred from time to time to show
that the quest has more substance to it then
the traditional pot of gold at the end of the
rainbow.
Did not the owner Of an old manor-h house
IN the isle of Jersey find urns full of "spadev
gulneas and other treasure in the ruins of the
ancient structure some time ago? The first es-
llma1es put the value OF the treasure at 81 $50
oOO. At almost the same time the sea ON the
Suffolk coast washed up from the sand old
gold, silver and bronze coins and iewelrv Of
Saxon times. In Florida dog chasing a rab
DIT unearthed mail-robbers hoard of $4,000 in
hollow pine log. An old lounge in East
Boston dsgorged package of $2495 in Eng
llSh and American gold pieces. And shall the
ind OF 1000 pounds of money in the garnet of
an old house in Lee, Mass. be omitted from
the record?
In the face of such proof of the existence Of
concealed treasure it is idle to expect that the
efforts OF the imaginative will flag in the
search for it.

MYSTERY OF THE NAMES DISASTER.

After all the work done to raise the ruined
hull OF the Maine it does not seem likely. in
the opinion of naval experts, that the under
taking will bring any certainty as to the pri-
mary cause OF the explosion that wrecked the
battleship.
The progress of the work has so far demon
Strated that the ships magazine exploded, but
there IS nothing as yet uncovered to show
whether this was due to exterior or interior
causes. dispatch from Havana says:
a terrific explosion more violent
than has been supposed, sent the bat
tleship Maine to the bottom Of Havana
harbor. That the SCATTERING of the hull

COVERED WITH CORAL

While wOrkmen were clearing the spar
deck IN the immediate vicinity of the after port
side turret, reports the Associated Press in
ITS account Of the exploration of the hull of
the wrecked battleship Maine they found
bones of a right foot inclOsed in the ragged
remnant of shoe and nearby the bones of
forearm, the hand missing. All were black
ened, possibly from fire, and deeply incrusted
with coral growth -
So Shakespeare in the Tempest caused the
fanciful Aeriel to sing of Fernandos father:
Full fathom five thy father lies:
of his bones are coral made;
Those pearls that were his eyes;
Nothing Of him that doth fade
But doth suffer sea-change
Into something rich and strange
1t was time that the republic should rescue
the coralgrown bones of her sons from the
hulk of the Maine. The sharks of Havana's
foul harbor long since stripped them of their
flesh but what is left of what they were should
receive honorable interment At the post of
dnty they gave up their lives, and the nation
for which they died left them coffined in the
wreck with which they sank to a tomb of slime
and filth
Let us bury the Maine out in the clean
waters Of the deep blue sea and inter the res
cued bones of her dead in sacred ground. So
shall we make amends for neglect that has
been disgraceful and procrastination that
has become ingrattude

SOLDIERS KEPT in TRAINING
High Standard of Efficiency Cannot
Be Maintained in Army Unless
Drilled Constantly.

There is glamour and romance
about war that appeals to the heart
of every young man worthy of the
name in this country This is as it
should be- We are nation of sol
diers and sailors it is true, but many
a blood-soaked field can bear witness
that we are soldiers. When we have
the right man to lead us. A weapon,
however, that is left too long in it's
scabbard is apt to rust therein. This
was the state in which we found our
country's sword when the fiery cross
was sent out in 1861. We had not
been at war for many years before
this and even many of our generals
had forgotten all about the art, says
a writer in the National Tribune.
Hence the terrible muddle and mis-
management witnessed in the war Of
the rebellion.
