Information has come to light show. ing thatan expedition is being equip- ped in San Francisco harbor to go in search of the treasures said to be bur- ied on the Marianne Islands. In the year 1823, during the dark days of the terrible revolution in Peru, a number wenlthiest residents of Lima met the leading fathers of the Church at a monastery to devise a plan where- by some of their wealth might be saved.

Ravelo escaped with a scratch, but the boy was mor- tally wounded. As he lay gasping away his life he confessed the whole story to the authorities. The woman was arrested. tried, and executed. After suffering untold privations Ravelo escaped from Peru and made his way to Somers. The two survivors now began to devise ways to reach the buried treasure. At last they found Capt. Thompson and told such a good story that he consented to flil out his schooner Swallow and have a try at the heaps of gold and jewels.

An unnamed citizen of New York- who is, however, known to be Mr. Joseph Pulitzer, the proprietor of the World—has founded sixty permanent collegiate scholarships for poor boys of the public schools of that city. Twelve boys who have completed the grammar-sechool course will be selected each year, and to each of them is to be given a scholarship of $260 a year for five years, thus making the cost to the donor, when all the scholarships shall have been assigned, $15,000 a year.
