He was elected mayor OF Cleveland

As mayor he fought for and won a

He won the famous lake front

WILL DREDGE OUT LAKE
AT ST. PETERSBURG IN
SEARCH OF TREASURE

| st. Petersburg, Feb. Elm an ef-
fort to uncover possible treasure long
buried in a lake on the upper part of
Long Key, a dredge is to be put to
work to clear away the quicksand that
now guards approach to what seems
to be the skeleton of a ship. Arrange
ments are being made for the neces.
sary dredge, w. d. McAdoo, owner
of the land on which the lake lies,
having advertised for a dredge He
expects to purchase it and start work
in a short time.
That an old ship, probably pirate
sloop, lies buried in the lake. which
was once bayou, is the belief of Mr..
McAdoo and others who have been
in the lake and made an investiga-
ton. They propose to find out by
dredging out the contents of the lake.
The lake was formed when the bayou,
leading into Blind pass, was closed
by the action of the tides. 1t is be-
lieved by those who expect to put the
dredge to work, that pirate sloop
took refuge in the bayou and was
sunk by accident or intention. What
is on board is, of course, merely a
matter of speculation.
That treasure was found in the
lake when an old iron-bound chest
was taken from the lake is persistent.
ly reported here and Mr.. McAdoo re-
fuses to affirm or deny the reports.
He simply declines to say what it was
he and others found in the lake. But
1t is certain that chest was found as
pieces of it were brought to st. Pc
tersburg. The chest was whole when
found, that is also reasonably certain
and it was not empty. But whether
anything of value was found is a mvs-
terry that Mr.. McAdoo and those with
him decline to solve now. It is re-
ported that much gold was found by
the three men who discovered the
chest in the lake.
The chest was well protected as
there is quicksand on every side Of
the place where the chest was found
ana 1t would be very dangerous for
anybody to try to reach it. The bot
tom of the shallow lake is nearly all
quick sand and some strange reptile
also makes its home there. Mavbe
it is an alligator or an octopus but
that has not been determined.
Much mystery surrounds the whole
treasure hunt. Mr.. McAdoo recently
bought the land for development pur
poses. He is keeping very quiet re-
garding the alleged find of treasure
nut many persons believe the reports
OF gold having been found and many
persons have been digging for buried
gold.
