CHARLES BELLAMY was a ^ man of socialistic views who put In practice his belief, that all wealth should be equally divided, by engaging in piracy. He began his career as a wrecker in the West Indies, but finding that this means of amassing wealth was a slow one, he turned to piracy on the high seas. He obtained a ship--history does not record by what means--and began plundering shipping along the New England and Carolina coasts with an occasional cruise off Newfoundland when the weather and the pursuit by the forces of the law became too hot. Bellamy considered himself a natural orator and never passed up an opportunity to exhibit his gifts, especially when there was the added opportunity of preaching socialism. Upon one occasion he captttred a sloop and when Its commander, Captain Beer, pleaded for Its return after its cargo had been seized by the pirates, Bellamy har&ngued him thus: "I am sorry that you can't have your sloop again, for I scorn to do anyone any mischief--when it is not to my advantage^-- though you are a sneaking ^puppy, and so are all those who will submit to. be governed by laws which rich men have made for their own security, for the cowardly whelps have not the courage to defend otherwise what they get by their knavery. But d--n ye altogether for a pack of crafty rascalB, and you, who serve them, for a parcel of hen-hearted numbskulls! They vilify us, the scoundrels do, when there is the only difference that they rob the poor under the cover of the law, forsooth, and we plunder the rich under the protection of our own. courage. JH^d you not better join ua than sneak after those villains? Bellamy gathered around him a. whole fleet of pirate ships, the flagship of which was his own vessel, tbs Whidnaw. The end of his piracy cam# when he seized the whaling ship^ Mary Anne, whose captain brought about Bellamy's downfall. The piratt leader, knowing that the whaler's cap* tain knew the coast well, made him pilot for the fleet. So the crafty cap* tain took advantage of his oppor* tunity and ran the Whidnaw on sandbank off Eastman, Mass., one dark night. The remainder of the fleet foljlowed the Whldnaw's stern light oil the rocks and all of them wer# wrecked. Only seven of the pirates were'saved and they were saved only to be hanged in Boston in 1726. (©, 1923, Western Newapaper Union.) GAME AND FISH NEWS Nature "has reclaimed her own. Devasting floods on the streams and Tivers of Illinois have wiped out man's efforts to change the natural feeding and breeding grounds of the fish and ducks into farm land. From the Fox Lake chain of lakes and the Fox river, on the north, and the Des Plaines, Kankakee, Mazon, Vermillion and Sangamon rivers, tor«- rents of water have poured into the Illinois. The Rock river and all other tributaries emptying into the Mis»- isippi have flooded practically every levee district along their courses. Held back by the floods in the Mississippi, the Illinois has reached new high levels. The Ohio, Wabash and Kaskaskia are likewise taking their toll in broke4 levees and flooded farmst -- !*"* : ? > ? '• , A trip of eighty miles in a motor boat on the Illinois last Thursday showed practically every foot of manmade farm land in the bottoms' covered with water. The ducks and fish have come bfeck to their' natural homes. Will the levees be rebuilt and another attempt at drainage made, is the question that is now of 'greatest interest along the river. Investigation reveals that many, if not most of the drainage districts have not been a financial success. It is quite generally believed that many of these levees will not be rebuilt, due to financial difficulties. It is said that the people of Beardstown are seriously considering the purchase of one or two large districts near that city. The levies around these districts are to be left open. It is thought that this will relieve the pressure of future floods on the levees at Beardstown. Renewed interest in a large bond issue for the purchase of these overflowed lands is seen among Illinois' leading sportsmen. It seems quite probable that this proposition ™ii! betpresented to the next General Assembly. The plan advocated is to issue bonds to purchase the overflow lands) along the different rivers. These areas are to be used by all. the people for shooting, fishing, boating an4 related amusements. The claim isi made that they will "do much toward® protecting river cities and towns from disastrous floods • Voodooism Still In the outlying sections of Florida there are still remnants of voodooism.
