said to be river pirates hoard. Old Nick
O. Jack himself was leader of that band of
renegades, halfbreed Indians, and runaway
slaves. There was no opportunity to spend
the gold they captured, and it was hidden
until the renegades could 60 to New Orleans.
The gang was broken up by little army
of settlers and the leaders killed. The lead
ers alone knew where the hoard was, and
their secret died with them.
Some Other Hoards
IF Oliver Curtis Perry, the noted train
1 robber, was to speak, he might tell what
became of his booty. A thorough desperado,
he also was the exemplifcation of courtesy,
his Central New York acquaintance say.
Incidentally, he laid away enough money to
keep him in his old age. He said so many
times, and this has led to the supposition
that he has hidden treasure somewhere in
Central New York. If it is found, or if it
has been found, it is doubtful whether the
fact will ever be made public willingly by
the finder. There would be too many claim
ants for it-victims.
So it is with many treasures, and yet
there are many who at once make great
cry of JOY when they discover pots o. I'D.
One such was a semi-imbecile on the n. n
tainside across the Tennessee from Lookout
DelOW WIZ WdS
water boy for some road makers. One day
at lunch he started up, walked to a fence, and
began to dig. Two feet down he discovered
a pot containing between three and four
thousand dollars in coin, greatly to the
amazement of his fellow workers.
A year or so ago Edward Woods and
Thomas Dickinson, loggers, went hunting
rabbits near Oil City, Pennsylvania. A rab-
bit was holed in a brush heap, and the two
men tried to poke it out. They poked out
pot instead. There was thirty-six hundred
dollars in gold and twenty-five dollars in
silver in the kettle. The oldtimers remem-
bered that John Caldwell, an eccentric
farmer who died in an insane asylum, had
received ten thousand dollars for his farm
in the oil excitement. Everyone went out
hunting for gold in that neighborhood, when
the loggers' find was reported. Of course,
the heirs of Caldwell had valid grounds of
suit against such discovery as that.

The Slang Tree

Ply little sprouting of the imagination,
- slang may be said to be the product of
singular tree. 1t is fruit that people pluck
greedily, then pass on, thinking all the while
that such thing has never been tasted be-
fore. But the roots of this tree strike SUR
prisingly deep, and the sap that forms the
succulent juice of the fruit is often drawn
from very ancient springs.
In "Lakshadatta and Labdhadatta "a
Sanskrit tale. which parents passed on to
their children before the Christian Era, per-
haps-it is related that Labdhadatta was
beggar, who, almost naked and hideously
miserable, sat beside the palace gate, in the
city of Lakshapura, day and night For six
years, Lakshadatta the King, although COM
passionate of heart, refused him aims.
One day, however, moved by the va
grants opportunities, he assembled his sub
jects at an appointed place outside the pal
ace walls. When the mendicant appeared
the monarch looked upon him with much
favor and asked him to utter a composition
of his own. Thereupon Labdhadatta re-
cited an Aryan verse to the effect that For
tune ever replenishes the full man; but she
never comes within range of the gaze of the
poor"
The King announced that he was nightly
pleased with this reply. The assembly, in
consequence, stood on tiptoe of curiosity,
and the beggar waited with blissful expecta-
ton. The King announced that he meant
to bestow gift upon him; whereupon he
handed him, far back in that ancient day
what? A lemon!
Instantly there was much commotion, and
the populace cried out that Labdhadatta
was greatly to be pitied, and he became
known as the unfortunate to whom the King
had handed lemon.
So it will be seen that this fruit is not
new one on the slang tree; but that the
vinegar of disappointment, which is the
juice of the matter, is sap from very old
fountain.
But as the lemon that one hands to an
other in these days may not be lemon at all,
so it was in that Sanskrit day; for that par
ticular lemon, after an interesting series of
transfers. found its way back to the King.
He forthwith called another assembly and
Intentionally let the lemon fall to the floor
before the beggar. 1t broke in two where it
had been adroitly joined together, and the
assembly saw that it had been filled all the
while with gems of rare value.

Walter Buffers Loot


0F specific treasures there are probably
~ hundreds known to tradition. There is,
for instance, the story of Walter Buffers
loot. Butler was the notorious Mohawk
Valley Tory raider. In 1882, at the end of
the Revolutionary War, he came to the Mo-
hawk Valley with small army of soldiers,
Tories and Indians. His purpose seems to
have been less to raid the valley than to dig
up the silver, gold, treasures, and valua-
bles buried by the Tories at the beginning
of the Revolution to keep them from falling
into the hands of the patriots.
The raiders, under command of Major
Ross, were driven off after they had dug up
something at Johnsons Hall. They were
pursued to the bank of the West Canada, in
Northern Herkimer County of to-day, and
overtaken at the ford. The packers were
so burdened that they dumped their pack
loads of silver, gold, and jewels into deep
little coves on the creek flats, while Walter
Butler, commanding the rear guard, checked
Colonel Marinus Willett's pursuit. The
coves were then stirred up, to make them
muddy. Butler was killed, and the raiders
continued their fight. Some of the treas
ure was recovered by Tories after the Revo-
luton; but only little of it.
In the Nick o Jack Cave
A SIMILAR treasure is supposed to be in
~ Nick O. Jack cave on the Tennessee
River, not far from the Tennessee-Alabama
line. This cave is one of the largest in the
country. Colonel John Rusk of Haines
Falls, New York. once travelled thirty miles
through it. coming out on the other side of
the river ridges. Somewhere in its gloom is
