MONEY IN WASPS.
rhe Way They ltullt Their Hornet of Bn
rflt to a North Tarollna Farmar.
Along the batiks of the Cape Fear
river. In North Carolina, are lowlands,
behind which lies a higher level, or
bench. Tlio lowlnnds are subject to
more o less frequent overflows by
freshets, which are destructive to
crops planted tlverelu. A number of
years ago a farmer, resident In the vi
cinity, made a very comfortable sum
of money by Insuring his neighbors'
crons airnlust these freshets. His un
varying success as an Insurer was for
uwiny years a profound mystery to tho
people of the region. The years when
lie declined to insure were invariably
years of destructive overflow. The
years when he was willing to Insure
were eiiunlly certain to be seasons of
exemption from disaster.
Observation had shown him that n
iwrtaln KWM-Ies of wasp, which built Its
home In the ground, built some yenrs
n the lowlands, and other years uioii
the higher lev!. Experience taught
him that when rive wasps built on the
lowlands there wore no freshets, and
when they built ou the higher ground,
the lower would, some time during the
season, lie submerged. Th man hnd
simply noted an Instance of that little
understood prescience manifested by
certain Insects and animals, a better
knowledge of which might even be of
service to our national wenther bureau.

SPECTRAL PIRATES.
Soencs of More Than Fifty Yea i Ago
Ke-enacted.
Ellis Island, the Government Immigrant Land?
Ing, it Said to be Haunlod by the Ghost
ol Former Criminals of the Sea Who Wort
Hanged There.
-
Ellis island is haunted. There is no
doubt about it, for the watchmen who
guard Uncle Sam's immigrant station
on trie historic little island say they
have seen sights given to few mortals
to see, and have heard moans and
cries and shouts which never came
from lips of man. More than this,
one man there knows what it is to in
cur the displeasure ot the disembodied.
He was prowling around the ghost
well at the forbidden hour when a
heavy spade wielded by ghostly arms
descended on his head and knocked
him senseless. A great bruise on the
back of his head is still there to con
found the incredulous.
At midnight shadowy forms, clad in
long capes and three cornered hats,
walk abroad, and, arm in arm, make
the circuit of the island. The ghosts
are said to be those of the pirates
hanged years ago on the "pirates'
tree" in the shadow of the ancient
governor's house. This house is still
standing. It has defied the ravages of
time, and its oaken beams and white
ash shingles are as sound as they were
the day they were taken to the island
by the villagers of -Neu Yorke," who
turned out in force to erect the build
ing.
Southeast of the old house stands
the "pirates tree. In summer its
leaves rustle against the shingled side
of the house, and in winter the branches
of one gaunt limb the very one upon
which the pirates were hanged beats
a mournful tattoo against the low
eaves as if sounding the "long roll"
tor the souls of the departed buccan
eers. STRANGE SOUNDS.
A few feet from the tree is an artes
ian well. It was sunk at the expense
of the government, but no water was
found, and after boring nearly a thou
sand feet the project and well were
abandoned. Nothing but a deep,
black hole, four feet in diameter and
eighty feet deep, now remains to mark
1 the SP- Fr m lost their lives
in that well by being caught in quick
sand, and their bodies were never re
covered. The branches of the pirates'
tree extend over the mouth of the well,
and the ghosts of the pirates make it4-
the;r headquarters at midnight, and
at that time it is said the branches of
the tree are mightily agitated and
blow upward, as if a great draft issued
from the depth of the big hole.
Despite the most searching investi
gation the residents on the island can
not account for the strange sounds
and sights in any other way than that
ghosts are abroad. A feeling of terror
has seized upon the government em
ployees who are forced to remain
night after nicht on the island. At
times when the spirits become unusu
ally festive, doors known to have been
securely locked were violently slam-
meo, and windows known to have
been fastened were raised and lower,
ed,
Lights have been mysteriously ex
tinguished, and mighty gusts of wind
have come down the chimneys. 1 his
latter strange proceedings is said to
be due to the fact that the more ven
turesome ghosts take special delight
in rushing down the chimneys.
After the ferryboat J. H. Brincker-
hofl" makes its last trip the island be
comes a lonely spot indeed. Business
ceases, and as the setting sun's rays
become dimmer and dimmer and the
shades of night envelop the little isle,
a feeling of desolation pervades the
place,
GHOSTLY BUCCANEERS.
Those on the island say that just
before midnight the wraiths begin to
appear, and they are out in full force
when the clock in Trinity tower begins
to toll 1 2. Sepulchral tones are heard
issuing from the direction of the well
Suddenly a dozen shadowy forms
dressed in long capes, high top boots
and three cornered hats leap up from
the darkness of the well and . dance
frantically about the edge. Then the
branches of the "pirates' tree" shake
violently, the tree rocks from side to
side and groaning is heard.
The spirits of two buccaneers are
seen bent over the ground beneath
the tree going through the motions of
digging. At times the hanging of the
pirates is1 rehearsed. Two of their
number are dragged forth from the
shadows of the old gunner's house and
hanged from the fatal branch. Vhen
the moon shines brightly the ghosts
seldom venture from the black pit,
On Wednesday night Watchman
Sprague was missed and it was thought
he had fallen into the ghosts well
The watchmen and Treasurer Man
ning armed themselves and sallied
forth to find the belated watchman
They came across him lying near the
doctors quarters, partially stunned,
When he recovered he said he heard
noises that froze his blood, and before
he could run he was felled by a spade,
which lay near where he had fallen
Sprague's head was swollen, but it was
not cut. While they were leadin
Sprague away Treasurer Manning saw
something uncanny and yelled,
"Ghosts." There was a stampede
and poor Sprague was left straggling
behind, He hid himself in a trunk
and remained there until morning.
HISTORY OF THE ISLAND.
.The very next night Watchman
Jahn and two of his assistants set out
to unravel the mystery. They lay in
wait near the well until midnight.
At that hour they were almost petri
fied when they saw the forms of two
men clad in the costumes pirates at
feet hanging by the neck from the
pirate's tree. When they recovered
from their fright the brave watchmen
scurried for their quarters as fast as
their legs could carry them, and have
not ventured out at night since.
One hundred years ago Ellis island
was known as Oyster island. Shortly
after the war of i8ia Captain Morgan,
an old sea dog, turned pirate and
committed many outrages in the bay
and on the coast. He was captured
after a fierce struggle, and, with four
of his piratical crew, was hanged to
the pirate s tree.
Nearly forty years later the notor
ious buccaneer, Captain Gibbs, whose
deeds of lawlessness stirred up the
entire community, was hanged on the
same tree, in the presence of i.ooo
people. JVeio York Advertiser.

whole state of Delaware), was return

ing no population, and, though offici
ally organized as a county, no votes
were cast in it in the Presidential
election of 1896 there was no one to
vote. Delano county, in South Da
kota, has an area of 1045 square miles.
yet was returned by the last census as
having a population of only forty per

Presidential election five voters, four
of whom cast their ballots for McKin
