"a White Star liner of 14,90O ions acting as an auxiliary cruiser-sanE off the coast of Donegal, Ireland, il ninety feet of water.
 This occurred at spot where the full force of the Atlantic gales is felt parts of the vessel were soon buried under heavy accumulations of sand In 1920, two years after salvagine was begun, it was reported that 25( tons of metal had settled over the strongroom. Each separate piece ot that accumulation had to be hitched into sling carried considerable distance and dropped into deep wa ter.
 That tedious process took nearly the whole summer, and when work stopped at the end of the season the harvest was only seven stray bars of gold
 But in 1922 the divers luck changed. The first man to descend recovered nineteen bars of gold be- fore he had been down ten minutes i; and, in all, the catch that season was more than 900 bars. This change in fortune was brought about largely by the use of Professor E. E. Brookes' gold-fnder-an instrument with a spear, which, when stuck into the sea floor, registered the presence of gold on the galvanometer.
 The haul of 1923 was still better and in April last, when the Racer resumed her task, it was estimated that only 154 bars of gold remained to be picked up.
 Since then 127 bars have been sent safely to the Bank of England.
 About dozen of the most expert naval divers have taken turns to the sea floor. While the divers were able to descend quickly to the wreck and were in telephonic communica- tion with the surface during their work, their emergence from the sea was by very gradual stages, and the ascent usually lasted thirty three minutes, with three long pauses on the way.
 Even then it was sometimes neces- sary to give them periods of rest in a special compression chamber aboard the Racer. But as they were receiving half a crown-6O cents commission upon every 100 pounds worth recovered, the divers were usually eager to fulfill the whole of their shifts.

ARE BEING
 TAGGED LIKE AUTOS

PALO ALTO, Calif., Dec. 17.-Fish can be trailed in their wanderlngs around the oceans in manner not unlike police methods of tracing au- tomobiles by their license numbers, according to Charles H. Gilber, pro- lessor of zoology at the Stanford Uni versity.
 Professor Gilbert explains that scales render report on the bring ing-up of the first as we'll as furnish birth certificates and automatic age raiorders, and show the approxi- mate weight and seize at any time during it's past growth
 A few scales are scraped from the back of salmon and stuck in a book opposite number. A small aluminium tag bearing this number is clamped on the fish's tail and it is thrown into the water. Under Dr: Gilbert's direction more than 10000 salmon were tagged in this manner last year.
