-J'> UNIVERSITY EXTENSION MOVEMENT. The Coming Session in South Wales. The prospectus for 1904-5 of the University Extension Lectures, given nnder the Extension Lecture Scheme of the University College of South Wales and Monmouthshire, has been in tbo hands of local secretaries and committees for some time, and arrangements arc now boin^ made to secure lecturers in various centres for the coming session. The lecture list contains the names of 29 lecturers whoso subjects cover tho fields of science, letters and art, and therefore every possible wish of/any centre can, it is hoped, be adequately met. Daring; the past three yaars lectures under this scheme have been given in 32 different centres in Sonth Wales, from Haverfordwest and Pombroke Dock to Abergavenny and Monmonth. At some of these centres two courses per session have been regularly given. Swansea for instance has had six courses, At other centres one e^nrse has been given every session. A surprising feature has been the splendid manner in which numerically weak contres have organised financially success- ful courses, proving conclusively that the lectures are within the reach of very small dis- tricts. The attention of local Education Committees and. Technical Committees, now that the old restrictions have boon removed ia specially drawn to these lec lores. Such committees arc air end? organised for such purposes as providing jfJ tures, Ac., and are in touch with the audiencea most likely to desire tbat benefit by University Extension Lectures, In this connection the Central Education Committees of the Counties j have gladly vjromised their help especially in con- nection with the provision of a lantern for t ne lectures requiring illustration. In Pupil Teacbsis' Centrea specially adapted courses of lectures may well be taiier. up, for the Board of Education encourage the movement by excnsing candidates from their own examination in the subject taken and by awarding a higher scale of marks to the pnpil upon satisfactory completion of a course.

79 DEFALCATIONS. Insurance Agent's Dav/nfall. Samuel Chapple (46), insurance agent, Aber- tillery, pleaded guilty at Tredegar Police Court on > Tuesdav to three charges of embezzling sums of j money on daten in January! April, and June last, amounting in all to 15s. Mr T. G. Powell, Bryn- mawr, appeared to prosecute on behalf of the Pearl Life Assurance Company. Mr E. E. Williams, superintendent of the company at Bryiiniawr, gave evidence that defendant was appointed in June last year. Witness, upon find- ing arrears in Chappla'a book increasing, en- deavoured without success to get defendant to mak« an appointment to investigate the position of affairs, and ultimately defendant sent in his resignation and his books. Mr Williams then discovered 79 defalcations of small sums from 4d and npwaras, sums received by defendant baying been entered upon the policy holders' books, but not accounted for on his own returns. Altog-ttier there had been discovered up to the present deficiencies amounting to Z7 10s, covering a period from last Christmas till July. The Chair- i man (Mr E Jones Williams) said the Bench had I decided to deal leniently with defendant, and he would be fined S5 on each of therthree charges preferred against him, and ten guineas costs, or two months' imprisonment in division two.— Prisoner; I must take the two months.

Company Promoter and His Wife. j At Bow-street, Mr Harry Wilson, solicitor, applied to Mr Mars ham for a summons against a company promoter and director for neglecting to maintain his wife, a Dutch lady. He said the parties wore married in South Africa in 1896, and they lived together until September. 1S02. The hnsban I then left his wife, aud in the fol- lowing year, quite unknown to her, he took pro- ceedings in Holland with a view to obtaining a divorce. His wife heard of the matter shortly be- fore jadgment was to have been delivered, and she hurried across to Holland, arriving there just in time to prevent a decree nisi being granted From that time the husband, who, it was believed, was in receipt of a salary of £2,000110 ypar from only one of bis companies, made his wife an allowance of £ 12 10s a month, but in February of this year the payments ceased, and I she had only recei led R3 from him since He bad been paying the rent of one room for her in Montague-street, Biooaisbnry, but on Wednesday last ho gave instructions to the landlady that his wife was to leave the house. He (Mr Wil- son) had advised his client to go to the Divorce Court, but it was probable that her case would not be reached until next spring, and sho could not afford to wait until then.

The following cablegram has been received by the Canadian Bank of Commerce in London from their bead office in Toronto ;—" Regarding the crop in the province of Manitoba and North- J west territories, rust undoubtedly esisca in a considerable part of Southern and Central Manitoba: and for several davs last week it was feared that this might seriously affsct the total of crop for the whole country. It is now cleat that there is DO rust in almost all the rest of the country, that the last four or five days of fine weather have materially lessened the damage which was feared from rust where it exists, and that a good crop of wheat in volume is leaaon ably assured, although it may fall short of last year's. In any event, if the crop fell to onlv 30 million bushels, which there is no reason to fear, at a fair price and one much larger than those now prevailing it would produce more money than the crop of last yeax.

| BOER WAR CHEST. KRUGER'8 HIDDEN TREASURE FOUND. Romantic Story. Johannesburg, IVlonuay.—Mr Kemp, a cousin of General Kemp, has discovered beyond Speionkan buried treasure removed from Pretoria before Lord Roberls's entry. The value of the find is estimated at a qaaitei of a million sterling, of which the Government will receive halfKeuter. According to an Exchange telegram the trea- sure which Mr Kemp, a cousin of Genei il KemPi has d'ncoverttd huried beyond Bpelonken eon- i siBts of GO COGoz of gold and of coin which, it is beiieved, wa.s taken from the Pretoria Mint. The foregoing despatch carries us back to the last days of May, 1900, vvhsn, crushed and bewildered bv the rapidity o!' Lord Roborts'3 advance, the B ~er army, as a coherent andpowsr- ful fighting force, was in extremis. On May 29th Lord Roberts arrived at Gor-niston, near Johan- nesburg, and, conscious of the coming1 end, Government circles at Pretoria were in a state of extreme excitement aud confusion. Panic- stricken burghers were daily pouring into the town, and crowds of refugees constantly arrived from Johannesburg bv rail and road. At the moment whan English troops were firing on the last train out of Germistou the Transvaal Executive was holding its last meeting, at which matters of vast importance were exhaustively discussed." The next day Lord lioberts granted a 24 hours' armistice to Commander Kiause at Johannesburg, and President Kruger fled from Pretoria to Watervaiboven, on the Lorenzo- Maiqnez Railway. Persistent rruuours concerning the carrying off of a hoard of treasure presumed to be the rew- riant of the great war-chest which President Krngar had accumulated for use ngainst ns-were in circulation at the time. One report slate! that both Steyn and Krnger wero taking with them for concealment in the mountainous region of Lydenburg a heavy load of treasure in the form of bar gold. Another \\a3 to the effect that Lieut. Frickie Eloff and Dr. Tleymann had paid a mys- terious visit to Lorenzo Marquez with a similar object. It is probable thr.t the circulation of these re- ports was encourage:! bv the astute President, since the fact that be, and those of his Executive who joined his flight, had made away with most of the i'otd in the Treasurv, at a time when many of the lower officials and burghers re- mained unpaid, was vveil known and angrily commented on in Pretoria before the British oo- cupatian on Jnne 5tb. In his dispatch of August 14th Lord Roberts remarked that he had found the Treasury empty of its gold, and the banks nearly to. Whether inspired or not the false rumours have sulliced, for more than four years, to draw public attention from the spot where tha treasure, or part of it, has been lyingj'nndisfurbed- The Spelooken region is a sparsely inhabited mountainous district of the Zoitpansberg, ia the extreme north-east of the Transvaal, and its name, signifying Caves, sufficiently indicates one of the reasons for its choice. The Spelonkea hills begin at a point about 70 miles ellilt and north,east of Pietersburg, and stretch south-west anrl north-east for about 19 miles In such a range of country the finder of the treasure must have had something more than ordinary good fortune in coming upon the secret hoard.
