CAPT. KIDD'S HOARD AGAIN.
This Time the Tale of Treasure Comes
from Egg Harbor City.

Capt. Kids treasure has been I'M
earthed again. This time Egg Harbor
City, \. j., is the place where the pi-
rates hoard has been found A learned
professor has pointed out the hole where
the treasure chest may have been buried
and dug up.
The attention of the inhabitants of
Egg HarbOr City was attracted on
Wednesday night to series of mys-
ferrous excavations on the West estate,
which is situated on the Egg Harbor
river. Lanterns were seen moving about
III all directions. as if number of per-
sons We're at work. Owing to an old
superstition that the West estate was
haunted, no one dared to investigate the
matter until next day.
Yesterday a party of explorers fond
picks, shovels and other digging tools.
The hole where the treasure chest might
have been was close by. No marked
stone or rusty blunderbuss or Spanish
rapier was found that might indicate
that the pirate ever set foot on the
shores of Egg Harbor, or who the dig
gers might be.
The West house is one of the oldest
in New Jersey, and has been unoccupied
for some time. In earlier days it was
used as a meeting place for the Colonial
Danes.
At different times during the last one
hundred years Capt. klddS treasure
has been found on nearly every island of
the West Indies, and in many other
places. Usually a dying captain of a
whaling vessel has bequeathed chart
to some good Samaritan in return for
a plug of tobacco or other trifle given
in an hour of need. The whaling cap
tain got the chart from his great grand
father, who knew a sailor whose wife's
distant cousin served with Capt Kidd.
