SEEK TREASURE IN VIGO BAY
Company Under Spanish Grant Will
Endeavor to Recover Some Hun
dred Million Dollar*.
The largest amount of sunken treas
ure there Is any record of lies at the
bottom of Vigo bay, on the coast of
Spain. Here a Spanish plate fleet of
17 great galleons nnd their escort of
23 warships were sunk 300 years ago
by a combined fleet of English and
Dutch war vessels.
There Is no guesswork about the
amount of treasure on board the gal
leons. It Is matter of official record
and Is placed in the neighborhood of
$140,000,000. which at the time when
there was very tittle money In the
world had a purchasing power ten
times greater than now.
Of this immense sum a little was
landed, taken Inland and saved. A
few millions fell as spoil to the victors
and the balance had served as a halt
to draw adventurers from everywhere
to Vigo bay. A heavily financed com
pany even now. under a concession
from the King of Spain, Is trying to
salvage the sunken galleons and their
cargoes.
All In all, not more than 20 millions
have been saved from the sea. In
cluding that landed, that captured and
that reclaimed by the various firms
to whom concessions have b<-en grant
ed during the last 300 years, so It Is
safe to say that at least 100 millions
yet remain resting on the bottom of
the bay, 17 shiploads of gold, silver
and precious stones!
THESE SILKS NEED NO DYE
Louisiana Man Has Discovered Meth
od of Making the Worms Color
Their Own Product
While the silkworm has no fancy
for any particular color, preferring to
weave its cocoon of a drab gray so
that it will not show against a gray
tree trunk, one man has discovered
a method whereby lie can make the
little spinners produce any one of the
18 shades at his pleasure. The man
Is Dr. Vartan K. OsRrian, son of a
long line o? silk manufacturers, and
he has an extensive silkworm farm
near New Orleans.
Osiglan has discovered that upon
feeding the worms certain leaves they
will respond by spinning certain col
ors. He has carried out his experi
ments until he has the 18 varieties of
food to produce the like number of
colors. The silk thus shaded will not
fade In either water or sunlight. Not
only has he secured colored silk, but
In addition he has Increased the
cocoon in size until a single one pro
vides 1,800 yards to a strand, and
there are two strands to a cocoon.
The "Bolshevist Cocktail."
From the American lied Cross Bul
letin of Riga: “Helsingfors.—You can
tell a prohibition country by the weird
and awful drinks they drink. Take
Finland, for example. There they take
vodka. 00 per cent, made from pota
toes. not from grains, mix it with blue
or huckleberry Juice water. In the ratio
of one to ten, and gulp down the re
sult. ft’s the only way to get it down;
to sip would be to give up altogether,
both on account of the strength and
the odor. America" Red Cross dis
pensaries working with the Russian
refugees use vodka under spirit lamps
In place of alcohol.
