THE MISER.
He Bald to himself: "I would fain be rich.
No squandering spendthrift 1;
With might and main the gold I'll gain.
To spend in the by and by.
I'll grasp and gather and pinch ar.d save.
Nor answer the fools who jeer,
But my hungry till their coin shall fill,
To pay for each mocking sneer."
And so, as the years rolled swiftly by,
A mountain of gold he piled,
Whose shadow fell on his lonely cell.
Where never a loved one smiled.
He meant to barter his wealth for Joy»
To brighten his Journey's end.
But it grew a part of his very heart
That he Could not bear to spend.
He died, ar.d all of his schemes and plana
The mould of the churchyard hid,
With ne'er a tear on his friendless bier.
Nor flower on his coflin lid;
He left his gold for a spendthrift fool
To scatter to earth and sky.
And the grassc s wave on his lonely grave.
Neglected and rank and high.
There are beautiful lands that he might
have seen.
There are Joys that he might have known,
There are cries to heed, there are mouths
to feed.
There is seed he should have sown.
And grateful blessings from thankful lips,
And love of a child and wife.
All these he sold for a bag of gold—
And his was a wasted life.

SYNOPSIS.
Master Ardlck, Just reached his majority
and thrown upon his own resources, after
Ktating his case to one Houthwick, a ship
master, is shipped as second mate on the
"Industry" bound for Havana. Mr. Tym,
the supercargo, descries a sail. The
strange vessel gives chase, but is disabled
by the Industry's guns. The Industry Is
little damaged, but HouthwiCk and one
of the crew are killed. Selllnger, first mate,
takes charge and puts Into Sldmouth to
secure a new mate. Several days later,
when well out to sea, an Knglish mer
chantman Is met, whose captain has a let
teraddressed to Jeremiah Hope, at Havana.
The crew of the vessel tell strange tales of
the buccaneer Morgan, who Is sailing un
der the king's eommisslcfci to take Panama.
One night a little later, the Knglish vessel
having proceeded on her course, Ardlck
learns of a plot among the crew, headed by
Pradey, the new mate, to take the In
dustry and Join Morgan's fleet. Ardlck
consults Mr. Tym. They resolve to secure
Ih<- mate, but Pradey, eavesdropping in the
cabin, makes through the door and arouses
the crew. Capt. Selllnger joins Ardickand
Tym The crew break through the now
barricaded door, but are forced to retire,
having lost seven of their number. ♦Sel
llnger is for immediately falling upon the
mutineers, but Tym argues that they are
a light crew but still more than two to their
having lost seven of their number. Find
ing themselves now too short-handed to
manage the boat, Pradey descldes to scut
tle and desert the vessel, taking his men
off in the only available boat. The captain,
supercargo and second mate soon discover
their plight, but hastily constructing a raft
get away just before their vessel sinks.
The next morning a Spaniard draws near
them. The man in the rigging shouts:
"If you would board us, take to your oars.
Bo speedy, or you will fall short." On
board they are sent forward with the
crew, being told they will be sold as slaves
on reaching Panama. The ship's cook they
flrvd to bo Mac Irvach, "frae Clagvarloch,"
so a friend. Four days later the Spaniard
Is overhauled by a buccaneer flying the
English flag. The three Englishmen and
Mac Irvach plan to escape to the buc
caneer on a rude raft. Selllnger, the last
to attempt to leave the Spaniard, Is dis
abled. Just after the other put off they
see a figure dangling from the yard arm,
whom they suppose Is Capt. Selllnger.
Hailing the buccaneer, our three friends
find themselves in tfie hands of their old
mate, Pradey. He treats them kindly and
offers to do them no harm If they will but
remain quiet concerning the mutiny he
headed. The men consider this proposi
tion, and Anally conclude to suggest a
compromise, viz.: Agree to cover the vll-
Jainy till the end of the expedition.
CHAPTER XI. —CONTINUED.
The fellow heard it with contracted
brows and a lowering look. Instead of
answering at once, he took a turn across
the deck, stopping a. moment ot the
other rail, and bowing his head as in
thought, l'resently he returned, his
look less harsh and the lines of his
sii«ken mouth relaxed.
"Now here is a shrewd trick of bar
gaining," he began. "How you must
have overhauled your brains to com
pass it! You would make a compact
to lust to a dot as long as your necks
are in danger. Well, well, it may be
all that T could have expected of you
and I will not balk at it. Let us fetch
the matter to a head, then. You will
swear 1o me to impart nothing what
ever of the matters concerning the
mutiny, neither to Morgan nor to any
person, till such a time as you shall
take ship for England. In return, I
shall do you no harm, and shall recom
mend you for places in Morgan's com
pany or some other. IB this as you
would have it?"
"Why, yes," said Mr. Tym, who looked
a little surprised at the ease of the vic
tory. "You ratify this, friends?"
Mac Ivrach and I promptly assented.
"And you swear accordingly ?" went
on Pradey.
"We do," the three of us replied.
"As do I, for my part," he said, with
a satisfied nod. "You are now safe,
and I am free of my complications.
Thus all ends well."
He smiled blandly, and I supposed
the interview was over, but Mr. Tym, it
seemed, would have a question.
"What is our present destination?"
he inquired.
"Chagre," replied Pradey, promptly;
"but first I will run a bit to the cast
ward," he added, "hoping to fall in
with a homeward-bound Spaniard.
Such a one might deem it a favorable
time to slip out of some Cuban port."
Mr. Tym thanked hit for the infor
mation, and we returned to our own
parts of the ship.
"It is clear," said I, as soon as we had
withdrawn a little and could exehatige
a word in private, "that Pradey has
fetched around, as we guessed. He h.as
tied our tongues for the present, and
before they shall be loosed again
means to stop them forever."
"Aye, 'tis so, indeed," replied Mr.
Tym, "and we must henceforth be on
our guard. lie is dangerous to the
limit of his ability."
It was now well into the evening,
and as we had settled our plans and
were weary we gave over further dis
cussion and went below.
We awoke the next morning much
refreshed, and likewise in improved
spirils. Our mates of the steerage
were all on deck, and we had an op
portunity for a little comforting talk.
Taking everything into account, our
prospects were not, after all, so very
bad. The main question was how to
outwit the treacherous and dangerous
Pradey.
When we reached the deck we found
the ship making but a small headway,
the wind having much declined. In
deed, it soon fell to a calm. We looked
vainly for the Pilanca. for she had
clean dropped us, nor was any other bit
of canvas in sight. Well to the south
the seaboard was broken, for there we
made out what must be land, and on
inquiry were told it was one of the
northernmost of tfye Windward
islands. Our course was now due west,
and Lieut. Pliibbert told us we were to
continue till we raised Cuba. If we
fell in with no prize by that time, he
said, we should stajjd directly for
Chagre.
We had an easy voyage across the
Caribbean, and finally made the land
fall of the isthmus. All was now stir
and excitement, for we could not say
how matters had gone, nor whether
Morgan and his fleet were here before
us. It was approaching nightfall as
we drew in, and it would be a hard mat
ter to determine much without stand
ing dangerously near, but Pradey did
not flinch. The wind was almost from
the north, but he coolly held his
course, taking a desperado's chance of
getting out again, and so the Black
Eagle drove down till we were within
range of the glass.
My companions and I (now all
armed, and each furnished with a
serviceable cuirass) stood the
break of the quarter deck, and
watched with eagerness the motions
of the lookouts. One fellow was as
high as the fore-topgallant yard, and
another a little below. The first had a
glass.
Presently this fellow hailed the deck.
"What do you see?" bawled Pradey.
"There are seven or eight ships,"
was the answer, "and all lying well in
by the castle."
"Are they big?"
"It might be that half are of the size
of this, and the rest less."
"Do you make out much of the castle
and the surroundings?" inquired Pra
dey.
"It looks like a strong place," an
swered the sailor. "It tops the hill,
and there is some other work at the
foot."
Pradey talked a little with Phibbert.
Presently he went up to see for him
self. At the masthead he stopped and
leveled his glass.
"There springs up a light," I said,
pointing to the now fast-rising crest
of the hill.
As I spoke two or three more glim
mers appeared, but lower down. The
short tropic sunset was now over, and
comparative darkness was at hand.
We stirred not tack nor sheet, but
held sturdily on, and at last the out
lines cf the castle were clear to the un
assisted eye.
First Pradey and then the lookouts
came down, and Phibbert went aft,
and he and the captain talked briefly
together. The wind now abated a lit
tle as the light failed, and our speed
proportionally slackened.
"I fear he stands fair to fall into a
trap," said I, uneasily, to my compan
ions. "Will he still hold on?"
"I thiuk not much farther," said Mr.
Tym, but he spoke with no great tone
of confidence.
A half mile, it might be more, and
then Pradey called Phibbert and gave
an order.
The lieutenant leaped upon a gun.
"Ready at the braces!" he roared.
The men rushed to obey. The cap
tain then signed to the helmsman, and
as soon as he had shouted "Helm's
a-lee!" the lieutenant followed with
the other orders and the ship rode
gracefully round. At the right mo
ment the yards were ordered, and
speedily we w r ere sawing up and down,
very comfortably hove to.
"Ah, look yonner!" exclaimed Mac
Ivrach, suddenly. He pointed to a spot
a little to the east of the hill. There,
in a kind of clear space brought out by
a glinting streak of the failing night, I
saw a small boat. It was moving sea
ward, and was already nearly abreast
of the ship.
"We should tell the captain," I said.
( "Maybe that will be what he seeks."
"Vera weel," answered the cook.
He stepped toward the poop accord
ingly, but at that moment Pradey him
self made the discovery.
"Boat 1" he sang out, wheeling sharp
ly round. "Master Phibbert, get way
on the ship!"
"A fisher," said an old buccaneer
near me. "It is the very chance the
captain was tarrying for.''
It seemed so, indeed, and again I be
gan to think I had underrated Pra
dey's sagacity. In a moment the ship
was ready to come about.
The head sheets were let go, the
braces were handled in their turn and
the forward yards came round.
The other orders were quickly com
pleted. The ship's head rode gallant
ly round, and she was laid fairly for
the chase. The wind was too light for
raach speed, and as the boat had a good
start and her haven was near the re
sult must at first be doubtful.
"I'll have her if I ground the ship,"
growled Pradey. He hung over the
rail as he spoke and pulled a pistol
from his belt.
"Boat ahoy!" shouted Pradey. He
spoke in Spanish.
"Board the ship!" bawled back one
of the men.
"I am going to luff. « etch up by me."
CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JULY 13, 1899.
"Yes, senor," answered the same
voice.
As the ship came into the wind the
boat approached the quarter.
"What news ashore?" asked Pradey,
hurriedly.
"Why, senor, the English have taken
the castle," answered the man.
At this we all broke into a great
shout.
"The governor and many soldiers
were killed," went on the man,"and all
of us poor people terribly frightened."
"Enough!" cried Pradey, impatient
ly. "To the braces, men! Master l'hib
bert, lay our course for the castle."
At last Pradey gave the word and
once more the Black Eagle was fetched
into the wind. A cable had been pre
pared to slip, and one of the anchors
was immediately let go. Sail was
clewed up but not furled, and when am
munition l.ad been served out to the
men and all the cannon prepared for
instant use we were in case either to
fight or to fly. We were near enough
to the castle by this time, so that a
shot from one of its heavy guns might
reach us, but otherwise there was no
present risk.
Everything had been managed as
quietfy as possible, and there was no
hint, from any sign on shore, that we
had been perceived.
Pradey spoke to the first lieutenant,
and one of the quarter boats was low
ered.
"Take her, lieutenant, pick two men
for a crew, and see what you can
learn,*' said Pradey, brieflj\
"Aye, aye, sir," answered Phibbert.
"If all is well fire two successive pis
tol shots; if we have been cheated,
one," pursued Pradey.
Phibbert again assented, and hastily
picked out his men and got away. We
watched them anxiously as long as wc
cAuld see them, which was only a few
moments, as they speedily entered the
shadows of the river's mouth and un
der the dark foot of the mountain. It
was again a time of trained waiting,
but not for long, as, much before I was
expecting anything, a sharp report,
and then another came out of the ob
scurity.
The men broke into a tremendous
cheer, and instantly the decks awoke
to life. The question was settled. The
castle was ours.
CHAPTER XII.
OF THINGS ASHORE.
Every one was speedily in the
shrouds or hanging over the bulwarks,
so eager were all to get the first word
of the news.
A light came lifting and sinking
toward us, and we perceived that Phib
bert had set off a lanthorn. I'radey
thereupon hung two answering lights
over the stern. In a moment we made
out the dusky shape of the boat and
the indistinct, swaying figures of the
men at the oars. Then the light shot
up, and we saw Phibbert on his feet
holding it.
"A—l1 —s well!" he cried as the boat
broke out into our light "The castle
is ours."
Then the men thundered out into an
other cheer, and several excitable ones
cut two or three steps of a dance.
Phibbert andhisboatmencame gayly
up the side, and were immediately
beset with a multitude of questions.
"Now, sir," said Phibbert, turning to
Pradey and touching his headpiece, "I
Ha took another turn across the deck.
have the honor to report. Capt.
Brodely, with 300 men, holds the castle.
The governor and most of his coin
i :and are dead, and we have captured
above 50 cannon, six or eight pipes of
muskets, the value of £4,000 or £5,000
in treasure, and a goodly store of pro
visions."
"Excellent!" cried Pradey in high
good humor. "And St. Catherine's?
Since Brodely is here, I trow the chief
remained there—which is to say, he
took it?"
"He did, indeed, sir," answered Phib
bert, "but he is not in a way to remain
there long. Brodely had dispatched the
news to him, and he must soon come."
This happy conclusion of the matter
relieved Mr. Tym, Mac Ivrach and me
quite as much as it did the rest of the
ship's company. The fact is our per
sonal aims were not only thereby
furthered, but *.ve felt some little pa
triotic pride as well. Lnrtly, we could
not forget that it was cowardly Span
ish hands that had run poor Capt. Sel
linger to the yardarm!
We did aot wait for light the next
morning, but a little past three hastily
dressed and came on deck. The wind
had hauled round, blowing very gently
now from the shore, and we caught the
faint land scents, sweet after the long
voyage, and were well pleased to part
for a little with the salt, briny tang.
Presently the cast yellowed and the
sea began to glitter, and as we turned
landward a light fog or vapor split
away and the embattled top of the
mountain broke through.
The morning watch began to wash
down the decks, as usual, but with
many delays and long looks at the
shore,jind while they were still at work
first one and then another of the
watih below appeared. Pradey and
i Phibbert soon come out, and by the
time the sun had his rim fairly above
the water three-fourths of th« whole
company were on deck.
Not to dwell needlessly on details,
we brought safely in, towing with a
barge, after one tack, and soon .an
chored in a little rearward cove. While
we were fetching by the castle men
ran out to look at us, and, the news
soon spreading, the ramparts were
presently shining with armored fig
ures, who gave us a hearty cheer of
welcome. We found other ships in tb*
berth, lying just in the river edge of it.
and their decks were also speedily
manned and a volley of questions and
congratulations poured out.
Pradey answered all briefly but good
naturedly, but meanwhile gave hip
chief attention to one Capt. De Bou
vard, from whom he was learning the
chief facts of the siege and taking of
the castle. It seemed that the place
was defended by above 300 Spaniards,
not counting servants and slaves, and
that a most stubborn fight was made.
Capt. Brodely began the attack with a
force of 400, but at noon on the third
day, when the corps du gard was final
ly carried, his available command
numbered only ?30. The Spaniards
were nearly all killed, the resolute old
governor with the rest, and the unhurt
remnant managed to descend on the
steep landward side and escape. The
wounded and the greater part of the
women were left behind. This was all
concluded about noon, two days since,
and word had forthwith been sent to
Morgan.
As soon as we were at our berth and
all putin order Pradey called for the
gig and was set ashore.
He was gone somewhat less than an
hour, and when he returned rejoiced
us all with the news that we could
have shore leave. Secure as the ship
was, it was deemed unnecessary to re
serve a guard, so that Pradey himself,
with the steward, were the only ones
finally left behind.
It was a gladsome sensation when I
finally stepped out upon the solid quay,
and I think that Mr. Tyin and Mac Iv
raeh were in accord with me. The
morning was not yet far advanced, and
it was but moderately warm,'the air
was pure and the sky nearly cloudless,
and before us was the dark, strong
mountain, almost fetching the eye to
a little giddiness and yet pleasantly
steadfast, while breaking away to the
right was the refreshing green of the
forest.
We made no talk for a bit,, the others
of the crew pushing speedily on and
leaving us, and it was only when the
last of them were disappearing in the
gateway of the lower forts that we
finally started on.

BURIED PIRATE TREASURE.
Storlea of Hidden lllclirt Alimik the
Coant* of .Vow Jeraey and
LonK Inland.
In almost any rural settlement along
the coast of New Jersey or Long
Island, some old resident would prob
ably point out to us the blackened and
weather-beaten ribs of a great ship
which had been wrecked on the sand
bar off the coast during a terrible
storm long ago; he would show us
where the bathing was pleasant and
safe; he would tell us of the best place
for fishing, and perhaps show us the
high bluff a little back from the beach,
from which the Indian maiden leaped
to escape the tomahawk of her enemy,
and then he would be almost sure to
tell us of the secluded spot where it
was said Capt. Kidd and his pirates
once buried a lot of treasure.
If we should ask why this treasure
had not been dug up, he would prob
ably say that if anybody did find it,
they never said anything about it; and
it was his opinion that if Capt. Kidd
ever put any gold or silver or precious
stones under the ground on that part
of the coast that these treasures were
all there yet. Many extensive excava
tions have been made along the coasts
of our northern states; and even in
quiet woods lying miles from the sea,
to which it would have been necessary
for the pirates to carry their goods in
wagons, people have dug and hoped
and have gone away sadly to attend to
more sensible business. Far up some
of our rivers—where a pirate vessel
never floated—people have dug with
the same hopeful anxiety, and have
stopped digging in the same condition
of disappointment. Sometimes com
panies were organized, stock was is
sued and subscribed for, and the ex
cavations were conducted under the
direction of skillful treasure-seeking
engineers.—Frank It. Stockton, in St.

Gen. P. J. Joubert is one of the few
men who ever "broke a British square"
in South Africa, and he is confident that
he can do it again in event of war be

commander in chief of the Boers he is
the man who may have the task of try

When 14 years of age he left this coun
try and went to Holland. His taste for
war was always keen, and when the re
bellion broke out he came to this coun
try and served in the navy under Ad
miral Dupont. Later he was captain of
a colored company under Gen. Weitzel.
After the war he returned to Holland,
and later went to South Africa. When
the rule of the English became intol
erant to the Dutch at Cape Colony and
Cape of Good Hope, and many of them
went north to the Transvaal, Gen. Jou
bert went with them. After he had as
sisted materially in driving out the
wild beasts, conquering the savages,
settling the country, discovering and
developing the diamond fields, the Eng
lish suddenly discovered that they had
a claim ».o this faraway country. He
was only a plain Boer, or farmer, when
his fellow-subjects determined to resist
the British. In 1881, at the head of a
handful of Dutch farmers, he met th«
British army at Majuba hill and put i<
to flight after great slaughter. This se
cured liberty for the Boers, and they a*s
- look upon Gen. Joubert, noM
vice president of the South African Re
public, as the Washington of their coun
try. Gen. Joubert visited this country
in the latter part of 1890 for the purpose
of arranging an exhibit at the world's
