TREASURE BURIED AT HOME Rich Royalists Buried Their Valuables ' When Washington Turned Tables on Brikish, - Why go outside the United States to hunt ‘treasure? . There is lots of it buried at home. - : When Washington: turned the tables on the English in the Revolution, he took by surprise the rich royalists of New Jersey and Maine, Many of the latter, finding they had no time to get their treasures safely away, buried them. Money, rare china, silverware, jewelry and other articles of value were concealed here and there under a foot or two of earth, - _The greater share of it has never been recovered: In Connecticut, however, are several families who owe their rise to wealth to finds of the royalist treasure troves buried on thelr lepds. = , 0o

«During the time between the Révolution and the War of 1812, many Tory families left Maine, New York, New Hampshire and Vermont and set out for the lower part of Canada, oftentimes pursued by ladians or colonial troops. In their flight they sometimes buried their belongings. Recently, & landowner In New England came upon a cask of silver, unearthed by the spring freshets, e

~ In the Civil war, some landowners of the South fled before Sherman on his march to the sea. They burled their money and valuables, what they had left, and much of this property is still under the earth. -

If one is living at a hotel, tea Is brought to his room at 7 iln'the morning—just tea, nothing to eat. Then at 11 o’cloek tea is served again. All the business houses have tea served to their employees at that hour, and in Cape -Town one may see the carviers running along the street from the tea-housés to the banks and other business buildings. The heads of firms g 0 out to some tea room for their tea. At 4 o'clock tea s served again as well @s with the regular three meals each day, and then In the evening between 9 and 10 o’clock. Lemon with tea is unusual there. “They serve milk and -sugar; no cream, a 8 cream is almost an unknown quantity and very. expensive. There is no night life in Cape Town, and no cafes. Life is quiet and conservative, and if asparty goes out’ after the theater at night, they go to a tea room. These close at 11:80. - : .

' +Find Tail-less-Rabbits and Rats, Just south of the Isle of Man is a little island called the “Calf of Man.” The . original owmner received from Queen Elizabeth a grant of this island, which was declared to be forever free from taxation.
