FORTUNE ISLAND.
The Story of the Buried Prize of an
 English Buccaneer.

The Story of tae Buried Prize of an
 English Bueeaneer.
 An English buccaneer. having footed and fired rich prize, found himself pursued in turn by a Spanish pirate. and in order 10 save his treasure sought some isolated shore on which to bury 1t until the time came to divide the spoils with his followers. So he ran into the Bahama group and. landing on "a low lying strip of sand and palm trees. cached his plunder and. naming the place Fortune island. sailed away. He left number of negro slaves be- hind to guard the buried treasure, and the present inha bitants are said to be descended from these slaves. The For tune islanders believe he old sea rover never returned for his, chest and that it is still hidden somewhere near the tide level. It is no uncommon, sight for tourists on the rare occasions when a steamer stops there to see some half naked black man digging in the sand. probably in obedience to dream or other sign.
 The natives are half civilized, exceed ingly superstitious and very poor and live mostly on fish and fruit. They do not attempt to plant vegetables, pre- fering to rely on the bounty of nature, as the fierce hurricanes that sweep the Bahamas soon uproot and destroy gar dens. The little colony is huddled to- gether in a collection of squalid huts that are blown clear away in nearly every storm and have to be built anew. The island is nine miles long and a mile wide at the broadest part and lies no miles northeast of Cuba. = New York Press.
