VAST TREASURE.
Aerial Hunt Begun in
Toronto.
SEEKING BURIED COPPER,
TORONTO, March 2.
■The "Toronto Star" states that an aerial hunt for treasure worth £200,000,000 is now being organised in Toronto, and that in about three months' time eight aeroplanes will set off to search for tons of buried copper in a place now known definitely only to Eskimo tribes living on the northern rim of Canada's barren lands.
Just six months ago Colonel MacAlline and a party of Canadian explorers, in two flying machines, set off for practically the' same district, but strayed off their course. The flight will, it is estimated, cost well over £200,000.
