LURE OF TREASURE HUNTING

For the sake of romance and ad

of the expedition which recently went
to the Isle of In search of pirate

There may be millions of piece

hunters have ransacked
end to end no man can say that the
next hunter will not that
for which all the others have labored
and sought in vain.
Treasure hunters are of the earth's
all. They are the dreamers of great
dreams, the seers of wonderful

loves or should love them. The news
of the day Is too much hardened with
heavy reading. One wearies at last

of the is. There is a craving
for something not so commonplace,
for something less prosaic, for some-

the treasure hunters with cold reason
like a dash of cold water. Let us
fan their enthusiasm and keep
forever aglow so that as long as news-
papers exist there may be now and

A curious interest attaches to the
cream-colored horses which draw the

they are called, represent the white
horse which was the standard of the

In the royal shield of the House
Hanover, by which It was reintroduced
Into England. The famous white

Walker, the Macon banker who
lowed poison by mistake last Wed-
night, was able to he up and
about today and experienced no pain
although physicians declare he cannot
live.
Messages from all parts of the
country have been received by Mr.
some from surgeons land
physicians who offer their services to
assist him in his fight to overcome
the effects of the poison.
Mr. Walker swallowed the dose,
r a headache tablet.
told by physicians on Friday that
could not live, Mr. Walker resigned
himself to his fate, arose from his bed
and held a reception for his friends
at his home.
After the first day tho pain
and the gnawing poison set about its
deadly work of slowly but surely de-
tho functions of the kidney
and liver. Mr. Walker says he feels
as well physically as he ever did in his
lite, and, save for a slight pallor, no
one would know from his appearance
he was a living dead man.
Yesterday Mr. Walker, who is re-
to have a fortune of more than

business associates and gave

business enterprises, particularly in
real estate.

to the banquet Mr. Walker was a

death and as one of the
hosts to the bankers he was as gay as

at times tearful faces of his wife and

The members of the family have
agreed not to talk of the impending
fate of the master in his presence and

that Mr. Walker's kidneys are

When the dark clouds of war had

Up until tho date of tho bombard-
of Fort Sumter, North Carolina,
with several other Southern states,
had stood aloof from the secession

of them came replies of the most de-
kind. As soon as the authorities
at Montgomery made a call for
additional troops, the young men be-

WASHINGTON, May
Simmons, of the Senate Finance Com-
will call at the State Depart-
tomorrow to discuss with Sec-
Bryan the perplexing problems
which have arisen because of foreign
protests to administrative features of
the tariff bill. Nearly the entire time
of today's Cabinet meeting was de-
voted to this of the situation.
Senator Simmons after arranging
today for a conference with the Sec-
of State admitted that
protests had been filed with the
committee from Germany, France,
Great Britain and other countries. II
that before the committee took
action relating to the whole
question would be thoroughly discuss-
ed with the State Department.
Complaints have been made that
certain clauses of the Underwood bill
would abrogate with foreign
countries. It was reported that the
German would soon bring
to Washington a protest against the
provision which would grant a five
per cent discount In the tariff on
ports in American owned or
ed vessels. There have been
that President Wilson would not
object to an elimination of this pro-
vision, which Is said to be held by
Germany to violate the commerce and
navigation treaty of
of France, has
lodged protests which the Finance
Committee chairman and State De-
heads will discuss.
Tariff hearings by the Senate Fin-
sub committees which have
been in for nearly a month,
closed tonight and tomorrow will be
gin the actual work of revising the
schedules as they came from the
House.
With the close of the hearings, the
tariff became the subject of discussion
In the Senate enlivened by references
to President Wilson's denunciation of
tariff lobbyists and mother tilt be-
tween Democratic senators on
question.

decided to return and in running the
car on a canal bridge across the
