‘ TREASURE FOUND IN SPANISH SHIP. The Reina Christina Carried $200,000 to Pay the Troops at Manila. Manila, P. I, June 25 —The Reina Christina was raised on April 15 and she is believed to contain a fortune of over $200,000 gold in Spanish coin. She also contaius the remains ofthe men who went down with her on that eventful day May 1, 1898, There was a story around Manila thatsome of the bones of the Spanish heroes were taken away by curio hunters. but I have made a personal investigation and C. Hull, gunner in the United States navy at Cavite, who is now chief inspector, informed me that there was no truth in the story, but said that he had found some bones, supposed to be those of the men who went down with herand turned them over to the doctor in the navy yard at Cavite. Ithen went over to the wreck and interviewed Captain Garry, whogave me permission to take some pictures This was the greatest sight I have even seen, The bottom of the ship iscovered with about 12 inches of mud and sea shells and the inside of the vessel is filled with mud and slime. All the woodwork was burned and the twisted iron is covered with barnacles, Captain Garry told me this was the hardest job in his long experience of raising wrecks, At the battle of Manila bay there was aboard the Reina Christina over $200,000 of Spanish money. A short time previously the army and navy paymaster of the Spanish gov ernment had arrived in the Philip. pines with this money and would have paid off the sailors and soldiers in ashort time. As the Reina Chris- tina was the flagship of the fleet she was also the treasury-ship and the funds for the payment of the sailors and soldiers were placed aboard of her. When the battle started it was too late to think of any money transac- tions and when Admiral Montejo transferred his flag all remaining on board the Reina Christina were soon killed by the awful fire which consum ed the ship excepting to her hull. The treasure has lain buried in only @ few fathoms of water for five years and it was left to Captain Garry to finally raise the ship and possibly secure the gold. The naval experta who laughed at the idea of raising the Christina and the wrecking company which tried it and thea abandoned the job now see how close they missed hiving a fort une within their grasp According to law the whole of the money goes to Captain Garry, the man, who had the contract for the raising of the vessel.

For it onl) rained 40 days and nights, and the late flood lasted 150 days and nights, and we didn’t have the looking forward ability of Noah, or we would have built a boat and took in our uncles, aunts, cousins and all the neighbors, and we would have built it large enough to have taken in the corn fields, so that our many friends and customers would not have to plant their corn two or three times, But a word to the wise is sufficient. We have an inkling that corn will be a little short in acreage and probably not over 50 bushels to the acre, Hence be wise. Save all your hay, as you will need it to feed and sell and the cheapest way to save it is to come to our large Implement house and load up a Six Foot Standard Mower, the best on earth, and there is plenty of room in the wagon to put in one of our Standard Self or Hand Dump Rakee or one of our Sweep Rakes, Then after your hay is all cured. Buy a Lightning Hay Press, and bale your hay ready for market. Also remember that we are the only people in Butler that handle Bale Ties in car lots and always have what you want, You may also needa wagon. So please don’tforget our big 4—The Schuttler, Mitchell, Moline and Buerkens. They can’t be beat, and our prices are right, as we buy them in car lots and pay spot cash for same. We still have a good stock of the best Cultivators on earth, (the Deere and Pattee) and the prices we are making would indicate that we want to sell them. So don’t be misled by other dealers talking low prices, Cheap prices are always afloat, but the goods to buy are first-class goods at the lowest market price and that is what we have to offer you. As the flood is over and you didn’t get to take your sweetheart a boat ride, you should come in and buy one of those Velie or Anchor buggies, as they can’t be beat for the price and are beauties. We also have a nice line of Bike wagons in steel and rubber tires, and our pricos as low as the lowest.

Declares Roosevelt Made Grave Mistake in Appointing the Politician Payne to Place in Cabinet. Chicago, June 25.—“‘Mr. Roosevelt is particularly subject to criticism in connection with the scandal in the Post Office Department for his ap- pointment of a man who was a poli tician pure and simple to the posi- tion of Postmaster General. “Roosevelt has been before the country as the chief exponent of the civil service for a long period, yet he appointed Henry (. Payne at the head of a department for the sole purpose of having a prince of polit ical manipulators to run politics for the administration.” Mayor Harrison fired this shot at the national administration to day while talking of the action of lowa Democrats yesterday in refusing in State convention to indorse the Kan- sas City platform or Government ownership of railroads, The Mayor said there was no reason why the lowa convention should have affirm. edallegiance to the Kansas City plat- form. “The Kansas City platform is good enough for me until another has been laid down by a National Con- vention,” said the Mayor, “but I see no reason why any Democrat or any convention should say so. It is the last expression of a body qualified to speak for a party throughout the country, and it goes without saying that it remains the platform of the party until another is framed.” A Splendid Remedy.
