wlNDFALL FoR PEOPLE Or PoR-
TUGuEsE VILLAGE
Hidden Plumber Of Long-Forgotten sea
Bsnditt Revealed Through the
Encroschments Of the At
lantic Ocean on Coast.

The inhabitants Of paradelha. a tiny
fishing village on the Portuguese coast
rome distance south Of Lisbon, have
been growing rich of late ca what
seems to have been the hidden plum
der Of some Iong-forgoHen pirate band
Some of them have gathered In as
much as $1,000 worth Of treasure.
That part Of the coast Of Portugal
Is suffering from the Entertainments
Of the ocean. Many houses have been
undermined il the last few years and
have had to be abandoned Sometimes
big slices Of dry land slip off into the
Atlantic ocean on a stormy night and
the people wake up to find all land
marks changed.
This is what happened couple OF
weeks ago in a furious gale The
waves washed far in over the upland
and carried away vast masses Of the
upper soil, leaving the shelving beach
couple Of hundred feet wider than il
had ever been before A fisherman
walking along the edge Of the strand
saw something glistening in the slope
and roofing it out Of the ground found
1t was an ancient silver cup. He dug
some more and found quantities Of
scattered gold and silver coins.
When the news got around the vii
lage the whole population turned out
to dig. They found still more money,
all dating back to the end Of the
seventeenth and beginning Of the
eighteenth centuries. There we're rings
aud brooches, crucif1xes and ieweled
challces, jeweled sword handles and
table plate. Nobody knows just how
much the treasure amounted to, since
the fsherfolk hid it as fast as they
secured it, and when the official inqui
rles we're made every one denied his
own share
They are still digging, however, ant
an occasional find is made. The ses
seems to have broken up the cache
and distributed its contents over many
acres Of beach. Objects are picked
up as far as low water mark, and some
arc doubtless washed back from tins
to time from deep water.
It is believed that the treasure rep
resents plunder from Spanish coas
towns. 1t is said that long ago ther'
we're numerous bands Of Portuguese
pirates which committed depreciation
on q considerable scale both afioa
and ashore, and when Portugal was q
peace with Spain they were obliged 7
be very careful and hide their plundeE
From time 10 time other boards Q
the same sort have been discovered
When this collection was buried, n
doubt, the spot was far enough froT
the waters edge to be regarded a
safe for all time.
