LEGENDS
There are several legends in this neish-
OF which | beg to relate: There Is
large poplar tree. more than twenty-five
feet in circumference, standing about one
quarter OF a mile from Dwale, when
forks" some forty feet from the grouhu'
each fork being larger than an ordinary
noplar tree. in one OF these there IS q
lSnothole, into which IL IS said the IN
dams stored a quantity Of silver, reach-
ing that point of the tree by cutting an
other tree. which lodged In the FORKS
of the poplar. Up this log they ascended
tin they reached the desired point. AFTER
storing their silver away they let the
loy drop 10 the ground by cutting off
stick as high up as they could reach
when the end would fail down; and the
cutting was continued till the whole log
fell.
Another LEGEND Is this: There is n
large mass Of rock. about one half mile
IN length. running parallel with the
buchanan road. and having a wide chasm
in the middle OF the rock. lengihwise. the
whole distance. 1t looks very much as
II some herCuiean force rent the rocks IN

Several Thousand Winchesters Shipped
From New Haven. 5ss
NEW YORK, March "a. When the
Richard Peck reached her dock from
New Haven there was an unusual
scurrying around of officials Of all kinds.
Some were representatives Of the Cuban
junta, some were detectives in the en-
ploy Of the Spanish government and
others were there representing the
United States. Notification had been
sent from New Haven that several
thousand Winchester rifles and an
enormous quantity Of ammunition had
been stored III the steamers hold.
When the cargo was unloaded on the
pier here there was no sign of the
Winchesters. They had been quickly
placed on a lighter, which had been
made fast alongside the Peck, and as
soon as they were transferred the
lighter was drawn away by. a tug
whittier only a few know and they are
not willing to tell. They will be
shipped to Cuba when another expedi-
ton is fitted out.
