Search for Cocos Island Gold Not to Be Abandoned That the search for the gold alleg ed to have been buried many years ago- on Cocos island, about 5u0 miles southwest from Panama, is not to be abandoned is shown by an article in Monday's Boston Globe. Maps and charts of the island are said to he in the possession of an Augusta lady. Tho Globe says: Capt. Charles M. Bower, the 83 year-ohl head of an expedition to tlie South Sea Islands in search of pir ates’ gold, was a cabin passenger on Uv* United Fruit Company’s steamer San Benito, in yesterday after a fast passage from the Caribbean. Capt. Bower, it is asserted, is the only man in the world who holds the key to the location of the treasure. It is said he helped to transfer it in 1850 from the island on which it was origi nally hidden to another island, where it was again buried. Cocos Island, about 53u miles southwest from Pan ama. is said to have been the original location of the hoard, which was stolen from Peru. It is said that Capt. Bower and his party went to Pamana several weeks ago and from there journeyed to Cos ta Ilica to secure pci-mission from the Costa Pican Government to hunt for treasure on one of the South Sea Islands. Capt. Bower said yesterday that he returned to secure some doc uments which art* necessary in con nection with the expedition. It is said that Capt. Bower lias mad.- sev eral unsuccessful trips to Cocos Is land with parties who financed the trips. While he would not: divulge the location of the hidden treasure, he said that he had maps showing tin* exact spot where it is hidden. Maps and charts of an isolated is land in South Sea, on which treasure worth 5(10,00(1,000 is said to have been buried in ISt’O, arc in tin* possession of Mrs. James Brown of Augusta, Mo., widow of a retired sea captain who died three years ago, according to an article in tho '’annum Star and lieraUl of March 11.

(KiO.eon worth of plunder was removed from Cocos Island in 18.5(1 and trans ferred to another island in the South Seas.” Capt.

BACTERIA multiply with as tounding rapidity in milk when the conditions are favor able. Careful tests have shown that when milk is exposed to a tem perature of 90 degrees, these bacteria increase 2200 times in only six hours. Just think of it! For every one of these little germs, hundreds of which may ride on a speck of dust floating in the air, or left in the seam of the milk i can. there will be 3800 if the milk is left for sux hours at a teimperature less than that of the human body. Pasteurization kills the harm s ful bacteria. The germs o’f ty phoid, tuberculosis, cholera and other dread diseases cannot survive the pasteurizing pro cess. We are the sole dealers of pasteurized milk in this sec tion. Piaco Your Order New j ROSE CREAMERY | COMPANY I Tel. SCO 57 Cony St., Augusta iii' hi!
