Noted Pirate Besieged
Cities of West Indies

Henry Morgan. one Of the most ia
nous Of buccaneers, when a young
boy was kidnapped in the streets Of
Bristol-it is claimed that he came of
q good English family-and was sold
as an indentured servant to some col
onists in Barbados. When his time
had expired he made his way to ia
maica and soon fell In with the buc-
cancers who infested that island. Be
fore very long he became the captain
Of a ship.
At first he seems to have had but
moderate fortune. He took part In
several raids, but did not rise to prom
inence until he Joined forces with
Mansfeld-the first Of the buccaneers
who succeeded In rallying enough pi-
rates under one command to make
himself formidable to fortified coast
towns. Morgan became his principal
lieutenant and when bis chief died he
became the acknowledged leader Of
the buccaneers.
In June, 1893, when he was thirty
three years old, Morgan collected a
feet of nine or ten small ships and
perhaps 400 men. With them he at
tackled Puerto Bello and wrote his
name alongside that Of Sir Francis
Drake in the records Of Englishmen
whom the 0panlards feared and hated.

Prehistoric Canals Found
in Meade County, Kansas

Digging away with gonges and pad
dies, probably made Of buffalo bones,
prehistoric men, who lived in Meade
and Clark counties, Kansas, skillfully
constructed great artificial embank-
msnts which diverted the waters of
-Four Mile creek through an ancient
canal.
That's the conclusion Of field party
that spent several days In the late
spring of 1920 examining one of the
ancient channels. The builders Of
these ancient artificial waterways evil
IDENTIFY possessed engineering skill of
no mean order, as some Of their cuts,
hlls and meanders on sloping ground
abundantly prove.
When running along the face Of a
decllvity at right angies to the slope
they Invariably piled the excavated
dirt on the lower side. The earth
doubtless was transported by means
Of wicker baskets or In sacks made of
rawhide. The ruins antedate the COM
Ing of the Spanlards by hundreds OF
years. possibly a thousand or more.
Those canal builders probably lived
in low, one-story psublos. Moundlike
ruins still are visible In Beaver coun-
ty, Oklahoma, Just across the state
line, and in the vicinity Of the canals
In kansas.-Detroit News.

Pin in Candle Meant
Right to Haze Hearing

There was an old French peasant
custom which held the wisdom Of Solo
mon. This law was called THE Pin
In TIE Candle" interpreted by the
English as 'The Right to Be Heard"
In the old days If a man and his
wife disagreed, the official to whom an
appeal was made put two pins In a
lighted tallow candle, equal spaces
apart The husband was allowed to
talk until the fame burned down to
his pin, and then he had to listen
while his wife talked. until the fame
reached her pin.
This law passed into oblivion long
since, but Its influence became a part
OF the family life of France. It Is a
traditon-particularly among the peas
ants-when family dispute arises and
one member prolongs a scolding or COM
plant for the rest of the family to
say: ut is now mothers pin In the
candle" or, 1T Is now fathers pin in
the candlei"
So simple a legend as this has
brought peace to a multitude Of people.
How many Of US might apply to our
daily living and hear both sides of
the story l-Delineator.

very luxurious, both in the machines

flown for scientific work. The entire
forward end Of the cabin is enclosed
In glass, with broad windows reaching
to the floor, SO that the pilot and
others can look out In all directions
while seated In comfortable chairs.

Black War Bonnet Gets
Farm His Father OuDned

Title to tract of land, composed of
100 acres, homesteaded by his father,
Black War Bonnet, in 1873, has been
given to Joseph War Bonnet, q Sioux
indian Of the Ogalalla band, through
decision Of the Department Of the
Interior. Originally, 1t was unsur-
veyed land. and Black War Bonnet
settled on the 100 acres, making I'M
provements costing over $500, and also
occupied the tract continuously for
three years, thus emitting him to own
ership. In 1879 he received a certjf-
cate giving him complete possession of
the piece Of land, upon which he con-
tlnued to reside with his family until
dispossessed in 1882. In the same
year he died, leaving his wife and two
children. The wife and the other
child have since died, leaving Joseph
War Bonnet the only surviving heir.
For many years Joseph War Bon
net has been making efforts to obtain
Possession of the 100 acres of land
homesteaded by his father, but be-
cause 1t was withdrawn from the pub
lie domain by an executive order and
for other reasons his petitions have
been denied by officials OF the general
LAND Office.
Joseph War Bonnet In 1921 made an
appeal from all these adverse decisions
to the secretary Of the interior, and
fnal action was postponed pending
the examination Of witnesses and the
securing Of accurate description Of the
land. Several hearings have been held
In the case during the past two years,
with the result that a final decision
was issued, giving the heir full owner
ship and possession Of the land home
steaded BY his father many years ago.
The case Is referred to as one where
