In 1762 the largest bulk of treasure ever taken from ship at sea was brought into London. It was the whole of the cargo of the Spanish ship Her. mione, captured on May 21 by H. NJ. s. Active. The Hermione surrendered to the Active without an action, and the treasure was landed at Portsmouth and conveyed to London in twenty dec orated wagons, with British colors over Spanish and an escort party of sailors. The strange procession reached Lon- don on Aug. 12, the day on which George ". was born. On being sold the treasure realized f519,7O5 Is. Cd, and the share of the officers and men of the.

Our First Locomotives,


 The first locomotives in the United States were brought over from Eng. land by Horatio Allen of New York in the fall of 1929 or the spring of 1880, and one of them was set up on the Delaware and Hudson railroad at Carbondale, Pa., but, being found too heavy for the track, its use was aban- doned. The first locomotive construct ed in this country was built by the West Point foundry at New York in 1880 for the South Carolina railroad and named the Phoenix. A second en- zine was built the same year by the same establishment and for the same road and named the West Point. In the spring of 1881 a third engine was built by the same establishment for the Mohawk &S Hudson railroad from Albany to Schenectady and called the De Witt Clinton. This was the first locomotive run in the state of New York. The first Stephenson locomotive ever imported into this country was the Robert Fulton. This engine was brought out in the summer of 1881 for the Mohawk E Hudson railroad. It was subsequently rebuilt and named the John Bull.

A Joke on the Kinq.

Sir Ernest Cassel was persona grata with King Edward VII. AS matter of fact there was a curious and strtk- Ing resemblance between the back view of the late king and that of Sir Ernest. It was so pronounced that the great fnancier was known among his friends as ''Windsor Castle"
 There is a good story and true one told in connection with this. It hap pened at a garden party at Windsor castle. A we'll known peer of the realm was strolling about when, as he thought, he spotted Sir Ernest sitting in a chair. Going toward him on tip toe, he gave him a resounding smack on the -Shoulde der.----~--------.----
 "Hello, old Windsor Castle!' he cried, "How are you?" The occupant of the chair, startled, turned around. It was King Edward, who, unaware of Sir Ernest's nick name, was for a time exceedingly vexed at this undue liberty. However, when the circumstances were ex- plained to him he enjoyed the joke hugely.-London M, A. P.
