miser No one has ever yet found the San Pedro the fivedecked Spanish gal leon which in the Margarita channel on the Central American coast ninetytwo years ago carrying millions in gold jewels to the bottom of the sea There were two chests which held more than in doubloons there were gold images and precious stones almost beyond number placed on board or safety from Catholic churches and there were millions of treasure to pay oft the garrisons land Spanish warships along the American coast In all the treas ures of the San Pedro were valued at Syndicate alter syndi cate was formed to rescue these riches from Davy Jones clutch for tunes were squandered on the search Many lives were sacrificed in the chase but all to no purpose Davy is still gloating over his doubloons and golden images as he gloated first nearly a century ago Then there is the Hussar an Eng lish manofwar which sailed away to the west in laden with gold to pay British soldiers and sailors Is is said the Hussar had nearly aboard when she ran on a rock and sank in seventy feet of water less than one hundred yards from the shore of the East River For more than a hundred years one attempt after another has been made to snatch this treasure from the deep but so far not even the locker has been found Not many years after the Hussar disappeared under the water of an American river the went to the bottom in a gale off the Delaware Capes taking with her a rich spoil of Spanish galleons laden with gold and gems of fabulous value Govern ments and private individuals have vied with each other for a century in the chase of these treasures but they still remain as seductive and elusive a lure as when Davy first greedy hands on them If anyone seeks for treasure nearer home is to be found not many miles from the Lizard in Cornwall where they say a Spanish galleon with in her hold lies bur ied under the sands and rocks where the richlyfreighted vessel was bat tered to pieces by the fierce Atlantic waves Although many compares have tried in vain to recover this submarine hoard there is no doubt of its existence for coins are con stantly being washed up by the tide as tantalizing evidence of the rich

has not been seen for per haps nearly half a century Station ed elevate positions round the roeKgirt inlet alert and ever on watch for the appearance of one of those surging masses of that most prolific of all fish the pilchard which time to time visit that delight- coast the men who give I the hue and cry when a shoal appears descried in the dis tance the approach of a large shoal Soon it is realized that a mighty host of- fish such as they had never had the good fortune to see before is rapidly approaching the bay The alarm being given every available boat is launched and soon a huge shoal estimated at about thirteen million fish is captured in the num erous seines which have been shot A weird and extraordinary specta cle is now enacted Casting an In ner net within the great seine avast mass millions of then Is now drawn towards one side of the net forming a lake of struggling fish per haps fifty or sixty feet square and ten or twelve feet deep Scarce any water Is visible in this great pool but only a countless deluge of gleam ing fish some leaping in the air some gyrating and springing over the mass some inert and helpless but all aglow and glittering in the bril liant sun as though it were a vast caldron of liquid silver Surround ing the whole are a number of large boats or light barges each manned by several hardy sunburnt fishermen who bale out the fish with deep open baskets until the boats arc sunk to the gunwale each boat being estimated to hold eighty thousand fish As filled yiey arc towed to shore discharged into carts shot with salt into deep wide pits and subsequently exported to Ine Medi terranean And though the men are said to until midnight the stu pendous task of baling out those myriads of the finny occupied an entire week at no other place in the world can a scene like this be wit nessed a scene alike extraordinary and interesting Above the brilliant azure of sky all around the wavetossed sea flecked by numerous white sailed and other craft -over- or swimming on the heaving billows enormous flocks perhaps thousands of them of several varie ties of gulls crying in discordant tones and greedily watching the prrsoned dancing fish but apparently afraid to sweep down and seize them while- in the centre is the glittering pool surrounded by shouting and ges ticulating fishermen and boat loads of excited spectators watching the ingathering of those priceless spoils of the deep And as we watch those countless myriads of living creatures gathered together the thoughts may perhaps revert to the inspired prediction of that Great Day when the entire hu man race will be gathered More Divine Judge to be judged according to their works Happy they who having lived the lift- of the righteous and having laid their sins upon Him who bore the punishment of them in that guard room and on the Cross of Calvary can have made against them by the Accuser Chinese A traveller in the Orient that in China he found no wit or imagin ation but
