success.
| This is indicated in a letter just re-

Electric company from an engineer

about Dec. l.

Tor marine propulsion. the reports
from A. Starr of the Locomotive Su-
perheater company says in part:
"The trip was the most interesting
in all my sea experience, making 5,122
miles without a single stop. Although
we have had very heavy weather and
poor grade of fuel, we maintained
excellent speed for the entire trip.
1.-THE main turbine and motor gave
excellent service, the control gear was
very easily and efficiently operated by
the new personnel, and not the slight
est trouble of any kind was expert
enced during the run.
"The boilers and superheaters gave
very satisfactory results maintaining
pressure of 200 to 21O pounds and a
] temperature OF 5S5 to 600 degrees at
the turbine.
THE chief engineer was very well
satisfied with the performance of the
entire equipment and especially so
with the simplicity of it's operation.
The engineers force of this vessel Is
not above" the average in experience,
| therefore, when we consider these
facts and circumstances, together with
the performance of the vessel, 1t is
safe to say that no ship owner would
make any mistake by equipping his
ship with this type of equipment.
1.-THE engineers on watch operate

The s. s. Eclipse was built by the
Union Iron works, San Francisco. in

PLAN CONQUEST

LONDON, Feb. 26.-The Royal Ge-
ographicaI society is pushing forward
it's plans for the conquest of Mt. Ev
crest the highest mountain in the
world, the summit of which no white
man has ever reached. The main at
tempt will be made next year.
Sir Francis Younghusband, the pres
ident of the society, has announced
that Colonel Howard Bury, who had
travelled much in Asia had been
chosen to lead this years expedition,
with Harold Raeburn in charge Of the
actual reconnaissance Of the noun
tain. This will be in preparation for
the real attempt next year to reach the
summit.
Sir Francis said that the society had
the utmost confidence that Colonel
Bury would conduct the expedition in
such a way as to preserve the present
good will of the Tibetans, friendly re-
lations. with whom was regarded as of
the utmost Importance.

folk dance society in America, and not
long ago u certificates Were conferr-
ed on American students. One would
think this number would be multiplied
many times. Who would not want to
dance dances with such enchanting
names: shepherds Hey" "Bobbing
joe, None so Pretty. Jumps of
Plum Pudding, Gathering PeascOds",
IF all the world Were Paper? ?" The
fact that the names are not infre-
quently blithely irrelevant to any ac-
lions indicated by the dances does not
detract from their charm. And the
tunes are as enchanting as the names.
And the dances altogether are an in
fallible cure for ennui or depression or
any similar blights Of our modern civ
ilization. Granville Barker has said
of folk dancing.
at is not old fashioned because it
never was new. You no more get
tired of it than you get tired of go
ing for p walk. You never come to
the end of it because, being an art, it
has no end"
There are $50 different dances to
choose from. And there are two spe-
cial reasons why these dances should
appeal to Americans. First, they be-
long to US; they are as much a part
of our heritage as Shakespeare. Sure
ly we have much more in common
with English country folk of the six
teenth and seventh centuries than
with Spanish peasants or African ne
groes from whom many of our mod
ern dances are derived. Secondly, the
social character of country dances
bring them directly in line with the
deliberate cultivation of the commu-
nifty spirit, which has been much to
the front in recent years. They are
group dances. AS Mr.. Barker has
pointed out, unlike modern dances
they afford not merely self-expres-
sion, but community expression as
well.
Why shouldn't there be a class in
folk dancing in every town in Amer
lea?

springs were well known stopping
places in the day of the prairie schooner
and cattle trail and it is to them the
present day treasure seekers go in their
quest of fortune. The information OF
all seems to agree on one point--that the
gold was buried near the springs but
each person has a different report as to
the exact location.
Years ago many Indians went there
to search, inspired by the tale OF an
Oklahoma Commanche. who claimed to
have been in the band that massacred

Army Psymaster Is Supposed TO Have
Buried Treasure During Battle.

KINGMAN, Kansas, Feb. 26.-The
farm of John Ford in the southern part
of this county is the site of a buried
treasure mystery which Is periodically
revived by persons who go there seeking
chest containing $4,000 in gold.
The story is still fresh in the minds of
the older settlers here, many of whom
say they believe the chest occupies the
cache where it was secreted fifty years
ago by an army paymaster when he and
his detail were attacked by Commache
Indians and later killed. The paymaster
and his men We're enroute to an army
post to pay the soldiers.
They are supposed to have been cam
