wm the scene of many wild revels
when the swashbucklers of the Carl- j
bbean came ashore to divide their j
bloodstained loot.
Sword blades flashed and pirate .
duels were fought to the death. Be-;
neath those mangoes nine unmarked :
mounds testify that the dead were j
buried where they fell. Hallowed

who followed the black flag.
On certain nights the Cuban sky ;
is marked by what tne "i-ineros
term "El Camino de Santiago" or
"the road of St. James." It is a sort
of Milky Way, and when it appears,
the mango grove is avoided by coun
try folk. They say that it heralds
the arrival of restless buccaneer
spirits who come to hold ghostly
revels on their old stamping ground.
Many believe that the Isle of ;
Pines Is the locale of Stevenson's

than one youngster awake of nights.

government recently made a "find"

of Pines prison who, while quarrying
marble, came upon the entrance to a
cave which was filled with mysterious

Nothing was heard of the chests
after they had been sent to Havana
to be examined, so the rumor went.
Whether there was any truth in the
story Is doubtful, but it has served
