Mgr. ®U3DT/ & ELMO SCOUT WATSON I. Blackboard, the Arch Pirate ii A TALL, powerful man with a " fierce expression, which was Increased by a long beard which grew from below his eyes an«1 hung down to a great length. This he plaited Into many tails, each one tied with a colored ribbon and turned back over his ears. When going Into action, he wore a sling on his shoulders with three pairs of pistols, and stuck lighted matches under the brim of his hat." A pleasant picture? Yet, that Is what many an ill-fated ship's craw saw when, after a shot had been fired across the bows of their vessel, there came aboard the renowned pirate leader, Capt. Edward Teach, alias Thatch, alias Tach, alias Drummond, alias Blackbeard. As Blackbeard, he Is best known, and as Blackbeard he la well named the "arch pirate." For In addition to being an eye-filling spectacle, Blackbeard comes nearest being the typical pirate of fiction of any who ever sailed the Spanish Main. A peculiar sense of humor had this buccaneering worthy. One day, flushed with wine, he assembled his crew on deck and addressed them as follows: "Come, let us make* a hell of ear own, and try how long we can bear it." Thereupon he forced several of them to accompany him below, where they •hut themselves In the hold and set Are to several pots of brimstone. They stood It as long as they could, than, choking and gasping for air, they stumbled out of the inferno. But the last te come was Blackbeard, who ever afterwards boasted of his hardihood. Upon one other occasion he sat in his cabin with several of his fellows. Suddenly the pirate leader blew out the candle, and drawing his pistols began firing them under the table. One of the guests, Israel Hands, his sailing master (Stevenson "borrowed" Hands from real life to be a character of fiction In "Treasure Island") was severely wounded In the knee, and the only explanation offered by the playful pirate for his conduct was that "if he did not shoot one or two of them now and then, they'd forget who he was." A much-married man was Captain Teach. At one time he surrendered to the governor of North Carolina and was pardoned for his crimes. They became great friends, and when Teach confessed that he was in love with a young lady of that province--she was only sixteen years old--the governor was delighted to perform the wedding ceremony. Teach coyly confessed that this was his fourteenth venture into matrimony, and it was common gossip that there were no fewer than twelve Mrs. Teachs still living in different towns in the West Indies. (t, ltM, Weat«rn Newspaper UbIm.) Bowling Prize Winners The Palace Recreation parlors had some busy days over the week-end and accommodated hundreds of visitors. The good weather had enticed many of the city people into the country for the week-end, as well as giving many of the local residents the desire to spend an evening or two in recreation. The high score for the week was bowled by Dave Joslyn of Woodstock and Arthur Meyers, who were tied with a score of 235. Mrs. Al Krause won the ladies' prize of a box of candy with a high score of 171.
