FIND TREASURE IN HARBOR
Half-barrel of Nickels and Small Silver
Coins Recovered From Water
at Los Angeles
'os Angeies. Nov. 20.—Wild excite
| iiunit prevailed in the harbor district
when rumors >hat a treasure tro\e had
been discovered at the bottom ot 1 * the
channel in front of the scene of the re
cut in East San P-nlro and several
huudred men engaged in searching for
coin, whkh was brought up by the
steam dredger.
Within a few m uutes after the first I
collection of coins were sent out ■
th: ougii the dredger tube everybody
who was uot actually at work went to
Kast San Pedro in hopes of obtaining
a fortune. Altogether nearly half a
barrel of nickels and small silver
pa cs were brought up from the depths
ar. i for the rest of the day busiuess
along FiTnt street was booming.
Among ;he coins recovered were sev
era Spanish silver pieces of the year
ISOS and a Nicaraguan gold piece \al
lied at about $2.00. Where the oins
came from could uot be ascertained,
but legends of the older harbor men
int .uate tiiat a snuggling vessel was
| sunk a* t.Vs point while attempting to
I evade the revenue cutters employed by
che old Spanish governors tb enfor. e
the collection of ''derechos.''
All of the money brought to the stir
1 face bore the marks of having been '
'in the water for many years and the i
! coins were all badly corroded,
i In addition to the coins brought out 1
of the water, the dredger dislodged a
[ number of iron crosses, supposedly used ,
i for burial purposes. The crosses were
i almost falling to pieces from rust, and
I it is thought that they wore brought
I to t : is harbor many years ago to sup ,
; ply the mission stations.
While no one believes that Terminal
Island will prove another Treasure I«
iand, much interest has been arouse! 1
j by the money ducked out of the muddy
1 depths, and plans are being made to
make a systematic search in case gold
or other valuables may be reposing on ;
the bottom of the harbor.

TOWN RAS ONLY ONE CITIZEN
Forest Ranger Sole Inhabitant of De
serted Mushroom Mining Camp
in State of Idaho
Boise, ldano. Nov. 20. W. t . Tay-I
lor. of Silver mountain, is iu the
city on business. Mr. Taylor has spent
the past year in jail.
This statement, startling as it is. |
carries with it no reproach, since t-ue j
iail happens to be the preseut office of
the ranger station of the Boise forest at
Silver Mountaiu.
Mr. Taylor has the unique distinction
of being the sole inhabitant of the de
srrted village of Graham, ou top of
Silver mountain, about 82 miles t'roiu j
Boise. He is Mayor. Council, jailer and
hotel keeper all in one, tne pooh bah !
of the city.
Speaking of his pecul'ar qaurters. I
Mr. Tavlor said
"'The remains of the ephemeral min
: iug camp of Graham consist of the ho I
tel, three saloons, a smokehouse, the'
old mill anu the jail. All the other j
buildings have fallen into decay. The j
village is about thirty veal's old and |
was of mushroom growth at best, ex !
cept the jail, which was built of logs.!
lii ed wit h planed boards.
"The jail has two rooms. My room!
; lias a nice bj»y window, heavily barred I
with iron The other room, having |
originally Iwu the 'cooler,' 1 use fori
,my refrigeratoi When I get lonesome !
! I walk down to the hotel and saloon.
. both of which arc rootless, aud there I
' picture, the inmates of thirty years ago
and ponder on the unusual sums of
• money which were dumped into that lit- i
tie village.
"It is all hearsay, tor I was not!
there at the time." said Mr. Taylor, i
| " but they tell me that a million aud |
a half of dollars were dumped ■ nto that \
mill and town. The mill ran just ten |
days. Some of the old pioneers could i
give you a thrilling account of the j
camp, which. I undertsaud. was a bij;
iTraft from the outset. It was not sup
posed that there was a mine there, and ■
j.ist how the English syndicate worked
1 it 1 do uot remember having heard, but [
the mill ran just ten days and then ;
; the place was deserted."

With a Littie Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablet, the Secret of Perfect
Digestion
You should see our farmers and their
I boys eating in the fields. On the farm
five meals a day is the rule. No one
1 ever has stomach trouble because meals
are digested and people iive normally.
! In the city we lose our "pep" and
.ndige<tion. dyspepsia, stomach trou
ble. etc.. make us look on tive meals
; as au impossibility.
Facer's Boy—"Just think of broth
er Joe in the city. He can't eat. Why.
a Sandwich like this would kill him."
A majority of people have come to
i know he blessings which an occasional
j v.>e of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cou
: ''er upon the stomach. They are m.-:
' questionably- the most popula'- remedy
| known, for the reason that dyspepsia
I is the national disease, and these won
derful little tablets have lock since ac
l quired a national reputation as a
thoroughly reliable and efficient cure for
! all forms of dyspepsia and indigestion.
No matter how great the excess of
: t'ood taken into the' stomach, one or
! two of these tablets will digest every
. particle of it. A package of Stuart's
! Dyspepsia Tablets should always be in
j the house. Many a person has saved
himself from a serious attack of acute
] indigestion by using them after heavy ;
' meals, such as are eaten Christmas, New I
'Year's, Thanksgiving and other lioli-j
j days and festal seasons,
j After attending banquets, late sup- ,
! pers, heavy fancy dinners, after-the
atre parties, etc., where one has dined
' -nniptuoiislv and luxuriantly. Stuart's
j Dyspepsia Tablets should invariably
be used, as they digest the food per
| fectly and completely, and prevent all
possibility of dyspepsia, which, with
out their use, is more than likely to
ensue.
Go to your druggist to-day and buy;
a box. A small sample package of

PIC IRON MARKET NOW IS |
BETTER TRIM PREVIOUSLY !
Authorities at Washington Believed
That British Shipment of Ferro-
to This Country Will
Be Resumed
New York. Nov. 20. —"The lroui
Age,"' says: pig iron buviug iias in
creased, as to that there is no doubt,
hi finished steel markets the expect*- j
tion of better buying just ahead is
stronger, for inquiry has grown, and
iu some lines the decline iu orders has
stopped. Many manufacturing con-'
sumers seem to be waiting for the re-1
ductions iu labor costs which it is:
widely believed will become effective
January I. Whether prices meantime
will discount them is the question close!
buyers arc trviug to answer.
Prices have been losing ground in i
tuo past teu days and are now. in j
bars, "plates and shapes, vlose to the:
level at which there was free con
tracting late in 1911 and early in I
1912. renditions otherwise are not.
the same, it is true, and neither buy-;
er uor seller would repeat the free
commitments of that memorable move
ment.
agricultural works which
bought only for this year have been
sounding; the bar market for 1915,
though others have contracts running
j to July. Current sales are more often
at 1.10 c., Pittsburgh, thau 1.15 c.. Audi
in Ohio a 2,500-ton inquiry is known j
to have brought a 1.05 c. quotation;
from two mills.
The same tendency is seen iu plates
and structural steel. Sales of the form- j
er at 1.05 c., Pittsburgh, are common,
with mills running less tha" one-third,
capacity, while the low basis of some
bids on structural steel is again at- j
tracting attention. The Bridge Build-j
ers' and Structural Society tiuds that
in October 35 per cent, of the fab-j
ricating shops of the country was con- [
traded for, against 38 1-2 per cent,
iu September.
The export movement is still much
1 below the average of the first six
j months of the year. The French con
| tracts for 3 t-2-iu. shrapnel rounds j
! went at low prices, about IS,OOO tons;
I being divided between two Pittsburgh!
! companies.
Reported Russian and Norwegian!
' inquiries tor rails and the figuring of j
' Russian and French commissioners now ;
! iu New York on various lots of freight j
I cars are still without tangible results.;
1 The inquiry of the New York Cen-1
tral for 2 5,000 tons, of rails is likely;
to result in winter roiling for one mill, j
at least. Otherwise the rail makers I
have little to relieve the prospect of'
i a very lean winter. The Pennsylvania 1
j "'teel Company has booked a 3,500-ton !
i order and the Knsley mill has a week's]
i double turn operation ahead. Rails
i were part of the cargo of the first
; steamer of the new Mobile-San Fran-1
•isco line which sailed from Mobile
i last week.
Tin plate mills are reaching the end .
of the season aud some on tracts are
! pra< tieally negotiated for next year,!
with indications that a $3.25 basis
will be established. Sheet prices have'
ragged, with-oulv 40 per cent, of ca
! pacify employed. Two or three aggres-
I siv,i sellers have t.ikeu business at
j l.S5c. for N\>. Uadt.
Our liOii'lou able "tell? of an
: vancing market for hematite iron. One;
I Sheffield company has bought 100,000!
I tons. Several ship orders have added 1
j to the better feeling. The latest Brit- 1
) isli embargo is ou tin plate shipments
[ to Denmark. Holland and Sweden.
The cast iron pipe trade is figuring,
on the latest contract in many months'
—25.000 tons of 6 to 48-inch' pipe for
Octroi", which bids will be opened No- ;
vember 24. At Boston the Metropolitan
Water and Sewerage Board is taking)
| bids on 4,000 tons of 60-inch pipe.
Ferronianganese is now a subject i
oi diplomatic negotiations. It is be
\ed at Washington that B;itish ship- j
ments to this country will be resumed
lnder guarantee igainst re-export that
might reach Geramnv. Higher prices)
ha\ e been asked here on some spot |
' lots, but users are not showing enough ;
anxiety to warrant them.
Pig iron buying for the first quar-i
ter and in some cases the first half
of next year has broadened. In the j
Kast the activity has been greatest. I
Severn' large lots were quietly rlosed
sl2, Buffalo, beiug readily done on
• ontra- t* running to July. Smaller;'
foundries iiav e bought also.
St. Louis steel foundries have
bought 15,000 tons of basic iron, j
chiefly from Chicago district steel |
: makers. About 20.000 tons of basic
s under inquiry for St. and Cen
tral Western foundies.
Improvement in non-ferrous metals:
s a feature of the week. Copper,
spelter and lead have advanced under
increased demand, and all metal mar-1
kets show activity after months of!
stagnation.
WARN FARMERS AGAINST FAKES
Fderal Government Tells Cattlemen to
Beware of Impostors
Washington, Nov. 20.—Warnings'
to cattlemen to beware of men posing
■ as representatives of the federal gov-'
eminent in its fight against foot and
mouth disease went out to-day from
the Department of Agriculture.
Reports to the department sav per i
sous who claim to represent the gov-;
eminent are appearing in affected
States with so-called cures. Officials
say there is no specific cure for the'
: disease and that the only way to pre
i vent its spread is to keep weil herds
from contact with infected ones. The
warning cautions farmers to make sure
that men claiming to represent the le
partment are actually federal inspec
