A company known as the Boston Wreck- 

 ing Company has organized an expedition 

 to hunt for Spanish treasure near the 

 Colorado reefs off the north western coast 

 of Cuba. 



Rev. William A. O'Hara, pastor of the 

 Catholic Church of the Assumption of 

 Keyser,_West Virginia, has been granted 

 a vacation of one month, which will be 

 spent in touring Cuba on a bicycle. 



Emmanuel Lasker, the world's chess 

 champion, seems to be afraid of losing his 

 laurels to the young Cuban champion Raou-1 

 Capablanca, and declines to arrange for a 

 match on the basis of conditions insisted 

 upon by the latter, which experts say were 

 nothing more than the usual laws govern- 

 inq- such matches. Mr. Lasker says the 

 Cuban in his correspondence shows much 

 disrespect and he will not sit at the same 

 table with him in a chess game.

The Republic of Cuba has been in busi- 

 ness for nearly ten years, but thus fai 

 has never had its own coinage, using 

 mostly the Spanish money that was the 

 legal tender when Spain was in charge 

 and the money of the United States. 

 However, says the New York Tribune of 

 January 29th, before long Cuba will 

 probably have her own coins in circulation. 

 President Gomez has a plan for the estab- 

 lishment of a mint in Havana. It is ex- 

 pected that the first coinage will amount 

 to $20,000,000.
