C0C0S ISLAND STILL
KEEPS ITS TREASURE
English Expedition Comes Back
Empty Handed.

Panama.-The treasure hunting ex-
petition led by Miss Genevieve Davis,
an Englishwoman. which had been
looking for buried gold on Cocos is
land for many months, got back here
A good time was had by all. No treas
ure was recovered. =. r. IT,,
Ben1to Bon1to was regular pirate,
who In the early part of the nineteenth
century settled down to 'singeing the
beard of the king Of Spain" along the
coast of Mexico. When he got any
money together he buried it on Cocos
island, after the manner of pirates,
and made map with skull and cross
bones marking the spot where the
treasure was hid. His heirs have made
substantial living selling these maps
to those whom romance and the works
of R. L. Stevenson have touched.
Miss Davis expedition, started out
from Plymouth with one of the maps
and vessel armed with six FOUNDER
to fight the natives of Cocos island,
which lies $50 miles southwest of
Panama, on Sept. 10 last. The only
woman besides Miss Davis aboard the
ship was her friend, Mrs. Barry Till.
At the same time Miss Davis organ
lied her expedition one of the repre-
sentatives of the Benito Bonito Buried
treasure company was on the road
In the south of France and sold a
map to Nine. Matilda Durand of Mar
settles, who forthwith announced that
she was going to get up an expedition
of her own. Her map, she said, was
better than Miss Davis because in ad-
dition to the skull and crossbones it
told just how many PAGES you took
from the palm tree on Dead Mans
hill to get to the cave where the treas
ure was buried. r..
And then when Miss Davis expedi-
ton was on the high seas who should
start out after the treasure but Thomas
McEwen of Victoria. B. c.! His map
had little picture of Benito's vessel
with all sails set skimming around the
Cocos island harbor
No mention has come over the cables
as yet of the fate Of the Durand and
McEwen expeditions. Three new no.
tells have been opened on the Cocos is
land main street, however.

Fisk University, the most noted

600 more than two years ago by the
General Education Board, on condition
that it raise $24O,OOO in addition, for
liquidation of accumulated indebted
ness of about $50, 900, FOR repairing and
reftting buildings, for the installation
endowment. An amount of 100000
was to go for endowment. The insti-
tuition has run all these years, almost
entirely through the support, from
year to year, of white friends in the
North.
About two hundred of these white
friends have contributed toward the
present endowment effort, but the total
amount given leaves 100000 yet to be
raised. The time limit of the initial
offer of the General Education Board
expires June LIST and the University
authorities have no assurance that this
time limit will be extended.
The alumni are carrying on a loyal
rally; to raise $4,000 as their share
in the fund, but there will still remain
nearly 100000 which must be secured
from other friends. The white friends
uted generously to this fund and now

are asking what the Afro Americans
propose to do. The authorities of the
University are making a nationwide
appeal to the Afro-Americans to rally
to the rescue of this institution which
for forty-seven years has offered all
that is highest and best in education
and culture. to the Afro-Americans Of
the land. They want 100000 Afro
Americans to send them at least 81 be-
tween now and June LIST. Checks and
money orders should be made payable
to Fisk University and may be sent to
