LONG A BRITISH POSSESSION
Years Before the MaTIower.
Sailed From England.

The island of Bermuda was discov-
cred in 1915 by a Spaniard, Juan de
Bermudez. Nearly 100 years later an
English vessel with Virginia ColOnists
was shipwrecked on the island, which
had been known as the Isle of Devils
because of the terrific storms on Its
coast and had been Stunned. Adj
miral Sir George Somers, leading the
yirginians, died. His body was taken
back to England. where the colonsts
told the wonders Of the island. The
Virginia company determined to colo
nixe the islands, and had it's charter
amended to include islands within 300
leagues of Virginia. AS result, 80
colonists were sent out in 1912, eight
years before the Mayflower sailed.
Later the Virginans sold their rights
TO Bermuda company, which so sub
yerted the Inhabitants that they formed
parliament and fought fOt their
rights. Three branches of govern
ment were devised. Regulations were
most severe. and penalties were of the
most extreme nature.

Artistic Gem Recovered.

In June attention was called to the
exhibition and subsequent sale Of a
picture catalogued as by Rembrandt
entitled "Heraclitus and Democritus,"
the property Of Capt. Alston-Rob-
erts-West, says the London Times,
The picture was covered with such
a thick coat of old varnish that Eng
fish dealers were afraid to risk the
chance of cleaning. Many good judges
were convinced that Il was a genuine
Rembrandt, and one Of these declared
that 1t was mot only by Rembrandt,
but one Of his masterpieces. The PFC
ture was bought for 1880 guineas
(s25, 0OO) by Mr.. Goudstikku Of Am
sterdam. II has since been cleaned,
and has been pronounced by an expert
to be splendid example Of a Rem
brandt about 1850.
