The. discovery Of an alleged spring Of
purery whisky on tho farm Of silas Jones.
near Smithton, Westmoreland county, has
u1fuuasssss intense excitement among tho peo.
ple Of that place. Several days ago Farmer
Jones, while digging ditch, came upon
an old we'll. He struck o ledge Of soft sand
stone, and from orevioe In Its side came
drops Of whisky To make sure Of II the
farmer tasted the liquid and pronounced it
a fair quality of barleyoorn. After arrang-
ing to run the drippings into cask no
closed up the we'll In order to keep the
discovery secret. Many think the whisky
comes from a storage vault Of an old dis
tillery that probably stood where Jones
began digging The Oldest inhabitant does
not remember such distillery Barrels OF
whisky wore probably buried In the hill
side and forgotten. Now that the casks
are decaying, the contents are oosing out
through the ehill.-Philadelphia Ledger.

know of the distance of the fixed stars.
AT the scme time, they were simple
enough to tell our men idle stories of
lions, panthers and alligators they
were to encounter in that dreadful
place. In short, we saw plainly that
no intelligence of this terra incognita
was to be got but from our experience.
For that reason we resolved to make
preparations to enter the next morn.
ing. We allotted each one of the sur
veyors twelve men to attend in this
painful enterprise"
The enterprise" proved too much
for Colonel Byrd and his party. After
terrible experiences with wild beasts,
quaSmires and snakes they abandoned
the swamp.
There are many weird traditions
connected with the Great Dismal.
One of the most uncanny is OF a
phantom ship said to be a merchant
man captured by Captain Kidd, the
pirate. The ship was dismantled,
robbed, its crew murdered and then
towed up one of the rivers flowing
from Lake Drummond to the sea. The
ship, covered with phosphorus, stands
near the lake. The ghosts of the crow
still man it, and on moonlight nights
the hunter who sees it hears a ban
shee wall, which means disaster, sick
ness or death to him.
One of the most romantic traditions
is Of an Indian warrior, who loved the
favorite daughter of his chief. The
father looked higher for the maiden,
but the lovers ran off to the shores of
Lake Drummond, built wigwam be-
meath its Expresses and lived SO hap
PLY together until they were both
very old that the Great Spirit allowed
them to revisit the earth every full
moon and ride on the lake in n boat
drawn by white swans. This Indian
myth bears an analogy to Lohengrin,
one of the most romantic ofthe Rhine
gold legends, the only instance of this
kind 1 recall among tho traditions of
the American aborigines. Another
story is of an Indian lover who was
driven insane by the death Of his
afiianced bride. This was related to
Thomas Moore when he was in this
country, and by him embalmed in
verso. Tho Indian warrior fed to the
lake of the Dismal Swamp and dis
appeared forever, excepting ut mid
night, when he, too, crosses the lake
with his sweetheart in q white canoe.
Many people who live near believe
Like Drummond to be the rendez-
vous for numerous other ghosts which
are supposed to haunt the swamp.
This supposition arose from the num-
Der of ignes fatui which are really
seen every night in almost every part
of the Dismal Swamp.-St. Louis
