SEEK LOST TREASURE.

The old lure of pieces of eight and
bright doubloons is again calling to
those for whom lost and pirate treas
ure sill sound an irresistible call. In
the departure from San Francisco,
recently, of the former scow schooner
Robert Henry on mysterious expe-
dition 10 the lower coast of Cali
fornia, another effort is on foot to
wrest from the abandoned hulks of
the sea and the supposed treasure
filled beaches of distant shores booty
and loot untold. Seeking salvage in
all parts of the world is the work of
the America \ Deep Sea Exploration
company, owners of the vessel. Just
what is the object of the strange
quest the outfitters are not prepared
10 say, but it is understood that time
old wrecks that litter the shores Of
Nlagdalena bay, which was the re-
treat of many dark craft of former
decades, are the attraction.

osTEND's HISTORY is BLACK
Beautiful Belgian City Has Through
the Centuries Been the Prize Of
Various Nations.

The first siege of Ostend, the beau
tiful Belgian city, ended 80 years
ago on September ~, 1904, when the
city was surrendered to the Span
iards, who had invested the city for
over three years. The honorable
capitulation followed one of the
most heroic defenses in the history of
warfare. On the death of Charles II
of Spain the French seized Ostend,
but in 1905, after Marlborough de-
feated the French at Families, it
was taken by the allies. In 1745 it
was retaken by the French, but re-
stored three years later. In 1856 the
French garrisoned the town for the
Empress Maria Theresa. In 1872
Ostend again fell to the French,
who evacuated it in 1898, regained it
in 1894, and defeated the English
there in 1898. The city was under
the flag of the Netherlands from
1914 to 1880, when Belgium re-
gained its independence. Modern
Ostend is known as La Refine des
Plages-the Queen of Beaches-and
for many years it has been the great
est seaside playground of Europe, a
favorite resort for the people Of all
nations. Its magnificent hotels are
among the finest in the world, and
the abbreviated bathing suits worn
by both sexes are the despair of Puri-
tans.

Holton sat back in his seat. So war
had come. What would happen now?
So far as he was concerned, Holton
was likely to be well in the forefront.
He was exalted, thrilled in every fiber
of his being. He put the dispatch in
his pocket and walked back through
the train to his car. AS he reached
Miss La Tossa's section he found her
folding up bit of paper and putting
it in her waist.
Had she, too. received a dispatch?
Holton did not doubt 1t. So he wasted
