~The junkmen, at best, aro regarded
with suspicion. Some of them, beside
: junk from the masters of
vessels, will steal whatever they ean
lay their hands on. 1f a boy or an ap:
prentice should be found alone on a
vessel the junkman will offer him a
trifling sum for some of the gear or|
stores. Watchmen on vessels at anchor
in the stream are sometimes in ealln-
sion with the junkmen, by whom they
are well paid. According to the genu- |
ine boatinen, such as those at the Bat.
» the jan usiness, although it is
x by the authorities, is dishonest,
and the men who follow it should be
classed as pirates.
Og dark nights the watchmen of the
vessels at anchor in the bay are told to
keep a sharp lookout. Every appreach-
ing small boat is viewed with suspicion.
If the latter should be hailad and should

fire at the retreating boat without being

There are usmally two or three pistols
in the cabin of a vessel, and a crew,
when warned, is able to repel a boatload |
of river pirates, or at least to attract
the attention of the vessels in the
neighborhood Consequently the
pimtes have to proceed with great
caution, They usually select a dark
night for making an attack on a vessel
at anchor, If it is summer they gen:
erally pass themselves as honest work-
men enjoving a quiet row, but if it is
winter they g on their dishonest mis-
sion with the expectation of meeting
with danger. If the captain of a
schooner anchored in the bay is known |
to have money in his possession the
pirates are apt to select that vessel.
When trade is brisk aud quantities |
of rum, molasses or other liquids are
left on the piers, the river pirates row
in under the docks and Lore holes
through the planks in the flooring and
into the bogsheads above. The liquid |
puis through the holes acd is caught |
F the men in tke boat below. One
night in the spring of 1880 a boat con
taining four river pirates approached a |
fleet of coasting schooners anchored in
Flashing bay. Bat the alarm wasgiven
in time and the crews were prepared to
defend themselves. Oune of the pirutes |
in endeavoring to eseape fell overboard |
and was drowned. Several of the crews |
in the neighborhood were aroused and |
three remaining pirates ware canght |
and were armigned before the aunthori-
ties next morning. In a day or two the |
trio were “ railroaded to Sing Sing.” |
This proved a wholesome lessor, and
.. for some time afterward no attack was
made on a vessel at snchor. There
have been a number of cases of collu-
sion between dishonest dock watchmen !
and river pirates. The forme: wait |
until the coast is clear ard then give |
their confederates the signal to ap- |

year-old daughter of Mr. Sam Johnson,
living on the Sibinal, wandered off
after flowers. Its absence attracted :
attention before it had been gone an |
hour and the family began to look for
it, but not fiading it on the place at |
once roused their naighbors to assist in
the search. California Brown, who had
stopped over night in the place, Ben
White, Henry Shane, several Mexicans
and the distressed parents hunted all |
that day and night, and at abont 1
o'clock on the next day the dim t. ack |
of the child's shoe was discovered by |
the practiced eyo of Mr. Brown. The |
party, bonyant with hope, followed the |
trail with great difficulty until night, |
when fires were built up in the hope of
attracting her attention. On Friday
morning the search was resumed and
fresh tracks found, which were followed
by Mr. Brown, Mr. Shane and a Mexi-
ean, the rest of the party having divided
and keeping up the search in different
directions. About 10 o'clock the little
one was discovered on a high hill by a |
hole of water, three and a half miles
from home, with its clothing torn to |
shreds by the thorns and prickly pear
throngh which it bad worked its way.

ner, and the men who were strung up in
the pillory didn't seem to mind the
blows much, The whipping post has
wits a timo when it was applied indis-
oriminately to thieves and falovs of high
and low degree. Now it is mainly used
as a sort of scarecrow for chicken
thioves, sneak thieves and errant tramps
known as * peach.plucks. There are
member, as children or vouths, a time
when some of the Blue Hen's most re-
speotable chickens were put in the pen
known as the pillory and made to ex-
piate their offenses against law and
morality by a forced embrace of the
whipping post.

lect bow in Dover a man who had been
a prominent church member and most
highly respectable citizen for some act
of dishonesty was publicly whipped and
condemned to wear the stigma of dis-
grace, the lotier “E.” as long as he
lived, or to abandon bis home and busi
ness and take up his abode in another
State. He resolved to stay where his
interests and affections irelined him to
remain, Although he wasa storekeeper
and his cocupation recessitated his con-
to his busines: in person, and it is said
by those who frequented his store as
purchasers that he had his stock so ar-
ranged and was so adroit in his move-
ments that no one ever canght a sight
of the badge of his disgrace while
being waited on by him, In the old:time,
when Delaware was more rigid in her
righteonsness than she is to-day, it was
held by those who made and those who
administered the laws that dishonesty
was much more heinous when engaged
in by those placed by social position
above want and amid respectable sur
roundings than when indulged in by
those tempted by necessity and evil com-
panionship. Consequently, when a
prominent citizen was caught stealing
or forging his punishment was always
made heavier and more severe than that

classes contemptuously known as “poor
