Treasure Trove Law In England.

In England treasure trove belongs to
the rown. According to the law, If
any one finds hidden treasure and con-
ceals 1t for his own use he is liable to
fine and Imprisonment. 1t used to be a
hanging matter. However, it may be
some encouragement to English treas
ure seekers, If any such there be In
these enlightened days. to know that
the laws of treasure trove only apply
to such as is discovered by accident.
Treasure discovered by systematic
search would not come within this de-
scriptlon; neither would finds discover

or by the potent influence of the divin.

King BiIly's Decoration.

A story told by the late Commander
Edward Barrett. e. S. ~, shows that
plated ware when no longer useful for
mess purposes on wal ships can be de-
voted to the service of diplomacy. Ac-
cording to this story, some American
navy officers, wishing to conciliate an
African %potentate named King Billy,
presented him with a discarded soup
ladle and a lot of gay ribbons. This
so delighted the dusky sovereign that
when he came aboard the ship to make
a visit In state he wore the ladle tied
on the front of his ample person with
the variegated ribbons and also wore Q
dilapidated %stovepipe hat.

SHE OUGHT TO KNOW.
A Woman Who Thinks Her vermiform
 Appendix Is Missing.

While l would not care to become involved in discussion on the sci entifie phases of such a question, says D. k. Saunders, in Washington Times, l, nevertheless, venture to re- mark that it seems to me woman ought to know better than any one else ewhether or not she has her yermi- form appendix concealed about her person. Mrs. Fred Johnson, of Min neapoIis, called in Chicago surgeon not long ago for the purpose of per forming some sort of operation which necessitated the cutting open of that part of her mortal frame in which the appendix lives and moves and has its being, and now she Is suing the surgeon for having feloniously ab- straeted the article in question. Just why surgeon should eoyet his nelghbor's or patients appendix, and just why any person should feel it deprivation to be robbed of one, re- membering that they are as full of ills as was Pandora's box, Is some thing of d mystery; but, anyway, Mrs. Johnson k calling strenuously for hers. The surgeon confesses that he told his patient her appendix had been removed, thinking the news would do her good, but that in reality 1t is still in business at the old stand. Mrs. Johnson, however, denies the possession of the appendix. q can feel the place where t used to be, she says, "and it isn't there now" If l were on the jury in this case, I should favor verdict for Mrs. John son. II was her appendix, and her present condition of lonesomeness " urely mean that she has been 'se ted from it. ''

 Australia, says the London Trayelef% We leave Sydney harbor about midm night in a small tug, so as to be on the further fishing grounds at day break.

The two deck hands are busy cutting up the bait, d score or so of mullet yellow tails and squid We are ready. and our eight leads go almost together over the side, all on the same quarter, so that the lines may stream clear of the tug and of each other. Down they go, and still down, a good 40 fathoms, and the moment the lead touches bottom We hold on. A moment or to passes and some one is into good fish, which is hauled and played on the thin line with great care and patience, and proves to be a silyery morwong of six or seven pounds weight-a handsome enough fish to the stranger. yet dubbed, with sheer, wrong color" by its captor and his Australian friends.

GROWTH OF IRON TRADE.
Worlds Production Has Increased at 6
 Rate to Tax Credulity.

The development of the iron in dustry of the United States, says the Engineering Magazine, has been marked with surprises. From com plete dependence upon the old world the country has leaped to a pre-emi- hence so complete that its rivals be- ieye and tremble. In the great rail- road building period of 1970-72 Eng land furnished the rails and other materials at prices two or three times above those which are now deemed abnormally high. Then England pro- duced three times as much iron and steel as the United States. Since then Germany has challenged the su- premacy of Great Britain, and passed herin decade of remarkable growth. And yet, in the current year of 1902 the United States of America will produce more iron than England and Germany combined Indeed, there is margin of excess to spare about equal to the product of France. If We add to this statement another fact, viz, that even this vast pro- duction is not sufficient for home re- quirements, and that the United States Is to-day, in spite of stiff tariff, the best customer in iron and steel that Europe has, credulity is taxed to ihe limit
