A The following sequel to a nava launch in England was not communi- cated to the press: some years ago a ship which was to be christened by an illustrious personage got behind in con-_ struction. The personage was sure to be ready in time and could not be put o, but not so the ship. As a last re- sort some portions of the superstructure were partly made fast with leaden rivets in place of steel ones, the launch took place, and the situation was sav- i ed.
