Such is the ttstimated value of treasure and bullion ;said to to hidden beneath tiro waves round the South African coast, and elat- ing le be salved. The question naturally arises., what, Chance is there of recovery? IA very good one, in the opinion of the South African Salvage Association, 's 111 has equipped the Allied Nobel - 0 ,1u• y:lt:hl of the famous invenk,r of es plieivee - with the latest scientific anal haply and instruments for reaching and removing the submerged wealth, and recently dispatched her to the Cupo it: charge of Captain Gardiner. The latter, who served as a rnidship- fnan on brand the (:Caldor under Lord Charles Beresford at the temileirdnieltt of Alexandria. acted as despatch rider to Lord Itoberls during the South Afri- can Campaign. His ,repress ct.riosity, ,however. lett him to become a diver for 'wrecks, and it was by means of the can- oplican, a very ingenious and 1:owerful this.lrunent for .scanning the sea bottom 'from a ship's side, that he discovered about twenty works round the South African n coast. which he reckoned would ;yield something like $:.11,000,000 IN SALVAGE. It was Captain Gardiners investiga- tion and report t which led to the tilling cut of the Alfred Nobel. Should ho suc- ,eee,d in recovering only one half of the easure, it w ill be a rich haul, not only !fo" the S.:%.S.A.., but also for the (Ape 'Government. \\'hatever gold is raised round the South African coast. must bear in tax of e5 per cent., silver 15 per cent., copper end other salvage 10 per cent. inn return, the Cape Government give an undertaking Mitt if Captain Gardiner once locates a sunken ship no permits 'will bo granted to rivals. Amongst the wrecks which Captain 'Gardiner hopes to relieve of their golden Ifrelght are the troopship Meleston, sup- posed to contain 85,000,000 in gold; the I'hcr'nlopylae, wrecked in 1898. with an !unknown number of silver bars on `board; tho Wilhelm der Secunda, with is pirate's treasure in her hull ; the Gray- enstein, a merchantman belonging to the {Netherlands Government ; the Middel-• iburg, lost in 1898; and the most inter- esting, if not the most valuable, wreck til all. the Dorothea, which lett Delagoa Bay at the end of f8!l8 with gold valued iit 83.1)00.000 on board, aid went down orf (:ape Vidal, hi Zululand. • Tho generally accented story is that this treasure was dispatched by Presi- dent Kruger -to Europe, but was stolen en royale before it lett South Africa. This, however, is scarcely correct, string That the 'Transvaal Government NEVER HANDLED TRE GOLD. Indeed, They did not know That they had been robbed of such a Targe amount 1 treasure until some time after the -rolhea was wrecked while making for salt' Aniericu. where the thieves hoped 1a dispose of the money. The exploit, in fart. turn'shes a story of rmarleable interest, and at the same Imre gives an lnsight holo yore of Ilse curious me- .theds o! money -raising adopted by the late Tr'ull;vnal Government.

L)urng souse sere,' experience in ccnneetion with the registration of births the writer has stet with some ex- traordinary reasons given by parents fur the sclestion of names for (heir off- spring. The Christian name "Margelet" would ►cost naturally be supposed to bo a nits -spelling of "Margaret,' but a child was given this name because, read back- wards, it made the word "telegram." Again, "Wnter," which might I,e meant ter "Walter," was assigned to a boy because the date of tits birth coincided with that of the opening of the local waterworks, A child bern late in the wedded life of its parents was registered in the names 'Nil Desperandum" ; and another in similar circumstances, was accorded the punning names of "Percy Vere." Christian names of children frequent- ly reflect the current history of the time; the lute war in South Africa pro- dh.ced n crop of such names as Rob- ei Is, Ladysmith, Buller, i'aardeberg, Kitchener. and so forth. "Diamond Ju- bilee" was often given in 1897, and "Jubilee" ten years before. Many loyal parents gave their children the names cf "Albert Edward" in 1901. The Bible is a fruitful source of names. In one case a mother made n peculiar use of a Biblical word, giving ler little girl the name 1Talitha," which was taken front the words "Talilha cunni" in St. Mark v., 41. Ile was an eccentric father who gave -, child a nan!e for each letter of the alphabet; this has been done, however, ..nn the names in which the child rejoic- ed (or ethcr'.vise) were Amy, Bertha, Cecilia, Diana, Emily, Fanny, Gertrude, Ilypalia, Inez. Jane, Kate. Louise, Maud, Nora, Ophelie, Quince, Rebecca, Starkey, Teresa, Ulysses, Venus, Winifred, Neno- p.hon, YeUy, Zeus. it will be observed that there is 110 Christian name for the Idler P, but that was merely because tate surname began with that letter. Of course, there are methods by which d distasteful name can be changed. One is by the rather expensive method cf u Deed Poll. and another, which is a nacre simple and less costly one, is to discard the disagreeable nnme in favor of a prettier one. which then becomes a person's r•fkhtful name by simple usage.
