Bartholomew Roberts should be placed at the very head of his profession," so says one historian, who continues "He Is said to have taken over 400 vessels. The only man who can be said to rival him Is Sir Henry Morgan, but Morgan, although In some ways an unmitigated blackguard, was a man of much greater breadth of outlook than Roberts ever was, and, moreover, was a buccaneer rather than a pirate." Roberts, a Welshman, started out honestly enough, even though the ship upon which he was first employed was engaged in a questionable occupation. He master of the Princess, which j sailed from London in November, 1719, for the coast of Guinea to get a cargo of "black Ivory" (slaves). At Anamaboe the Princess was captured by the Welsh pirate, Howel Dftvis, who forced Roberts to Join his crew. Six weeks afterwards, Davis died, violently, ef course, and the leaders among the crew who hoped to succeed him-- "lords" all, they called themselves-- finally elected "Lord" Roberts. •" The new leader immediately sailed for Brazil, and there in the bay of Bahla found a fleet of 42 Portuguese ships, loaded and ready to sail. With unprecedented boldness, the pirate sailed In among them to the heaviest laden, which he attacked, boarded and sailed out of the harbor. His booty was some 40,000 moidors in money, much rich merchandise and a cross of diamonds for the king of Portugal. Soon afterwards he took a Dutch ship, then a British vessel, and with supreme audacity sailed back to Brazil to clean and refit his vessel. After that he began preying upon the commerce ill tlie West Indies. In April, 1721, he was back on the Guinea coast robbing and burning. On one occasion he captured a minister whom he tried to persuade to become his chaplain, explaining that all he would have to do would be to say prayers and make punch. But the minister begged off and Roberts allowed hlin to go with all of his belongings except threfe prayer books and a corkscrew. The pirate leader explained that those articles were sorely needed on the Royal Fortune, his ship! Roberts' end came early the ilext year. In February. 1722. he was attacked by H. M. S. Swallow, and the pirate captain was struck in tbe throat by, a grapeshot and killed. What One'» Fiance la For By DOROTHY DOUGLAS n (Copyright) )M GILBERT was always thank* Tofu:l that he had been standing In the doorway of his shop when the Incident, Just outside, took place. He watchcd the girl, as he had many times watched her, while she put a great bundle of magazines in the mail box which was on the sidewalk just In front of his shop. While Gilbert gazed at her, quite satisfied with her from the tips of her well-shod feel to the mass of red-gold hair, his expression suddenly darkened. . He saw a good-looking man approaching the mail box, most obviously intent on a flirtation with the girl. iy Gilbert never knew exactly how It happened, but what he did see was the j ^ Knowledge •peaking of reading, recall the words of Daniel Webster: "Knowledge, in troth. Is the great sun In the firmament. Life and power are scattered with all Its beams." There Is nA getting away from tbe fact that the prizes of the world are for those who know.

Apparently their heads came Into violent collision for the girl crumpled into an unconscious heap on the sidewalk. " / Gilbert didn't like the look oi the man's face as he picked the girl up. Without a moment's Citation Gilbert rushed out. if - >rU "See here, what'sY happenefff* be questioned belllger^raly. The other held firtnly to the limp form of the girl. "This young lady, a friend of mine, has bumped her head, that's all--no need to mal.j a fuss about it," he said. "Since the young lady happens to be engaged to me-- I think we will make a fuss--give her to me at once!" The stranger relinquished his burden. ^ "Oh, that's a different matter," he said with assumed politeness, and escaped from the quickly gathering crowd. * Gilbert scattered-them all and carried the girl of his dreams tenderly Into the shop and from thence to the big living-room behind, where his mother sat. "She evidently got a nasty bump," said Gilbert, and Jgazed ansiously at the fluttering eyelids of the girl. "I don't know whether that dirty dog j who tried to claim her did it deliber-! ^ ately or not6--it looked mighty suspl- i cioue," he growled. j • "There, there," said Mrs. Gilbert | so >thingly. "Don't be Judging the man ! top harshly. Now you run along and , t mind the shop--she mustn't be fright- j ^ ened when she comes around--by so j many people." * "Many people! Just you and me!H|J^ laughed Tom, but he obeyed instruc- j ^ tions after a lingering glance at her. | <5^ "You're quite safe, my dear," said i ••• Mrs. Gilbert "You had a bump on! ^ the mail box and you are in the shop ; Just beside it." Did Mrs. Gilbert fancy It or did a light flush stain the girl's y cheeks at mention of the shop beside j the-mail box? t 1 "You are a dear, and how horribly > , silly of me to bump my head. I think | I I can stand now." She smiled Into A Mrs. Gilbert's eyes. "I'm so sorry to ' have put you to this trouble." i "It was no trouble. I ain Just thank- , ful my son was looking out the win- • dow and--well, my dear, he fancies ha ; rescued you from the clutches of a 1 flirt--but don't breathe a word to hlm about It." The blush was very evident now and Tom burst into the room to maka Inquiries Just when 4t was at Its | height. | "Well, what a change from the little Pale Face I carried in, mother," he said Joyfully. Peggy Underwood looked tp and held out a slim hand. /'It was very, very kind of yon, she said sweetly with a swift shy glance at Tom. "And your mother has been so good to me. I am Peggy Underwood and have charge of the library Just around the corner." She rose. "If you don't mind, I must rush back as there Is no one in charge, but if I may I should love to come in this afternoon. I have an hour off at four." "Good," said Tom. "I'll be here, too." And when four o'clock came Mrs. Gilbert bustled about happily making tea. Sbe loved young people and only hoped that Tom and this lovely girl would find happiness together. It was a wonderful tea party In the big living-room and, when some one entered the shop, it was Mrs. Gilbert who arose to attend. The man who entered was the one whom Torn considered a cad. "Oh--I have-Just come In to inquire after the young lady your son is engaged to," he said, and noticed tbe surprise in Mrs. Gilbert's face. But she was quite equal to the Occasion. "She Is all right now, thank you, and Is having tea with us. Oh, Peggy dear," she called out, and Peggy appeared at the door. "This is the gentleman whose head came Into collision with yours--he has called te see how you are." "And to apologize. Tour fiance rescued you from the hands of the villain," tbe man said and watched her closely. "He was a bit of a caveman about it, too." Peggy cast a swift glance at Tom, who had followed dose on her heels. There was not the flicker of one long, silky eyelash as she said softly, "Well --that is what one's fiance is for-- isn't It?" And Tom exchanged a broad gria with the mall box outside. •Hr*- 3 Oscar E.
