RIVER PIRATES
OF THE OLD DAYS
A Thrilling Adventure of the
Past Century.
Uurlug the early part of the last ceil-
wrjr many families were emigrating
from Virginia to Kentuc ky. Their usu-
,u (.ou((; wug dowu tjJ ouo riT(jr by
j rr,.ans of fiatboats.
AmoMK tl)e emigrants of that day
WIIH colonel Alan Mac.Miiin of Scotch-
Irish descent. His flat boat load con
sisted, besides stores, of his wife and
daughter and three men and two wom
en negro slaves. Tue colonel's right
I hand man was an enormously strong
uegro. whose strength had won him
the name of Titan, though he wag fa
miliarly called Tlte.
The Ohio and Mississippi rivers were
infested in those duys by some very
rough people. Piracy was not uncom
mon, and there was no government
force to check it One day when the
emigrant party were Hearing a settle
ment which is now the city of Louis
ville tbey saw a boat put off from the
Uiore and head directly for them. As
miiiii us it drew near it was plain its
occupants were bent on no good. They
were a hard featured lot. dressed in
coon skin caps and buckskin clothes,
and were all armed with rifles and pis
tols. However, the settlers were often
thus dressed, and Colonel MacMInn
wns not sure of these men until tbey
hud boarded his boat. Then they at
once took possession and ordered him
and his family below, where they were
placed under guard. The negro men
tbey required to work the boat.
The slaves were all devoteS to their
muster and his family, and went about
their work with no cheerful disposi
tion. Tlte declared that he was de
lighted with the capture, since by serv
ing the pirates be might earn his free
dom. This surprised his fellow slaves,
but us soon ns he was able be told them
that this was to prevent suspicion, and
he would watch for un opportunity to
recapture the boat.
The pirates, seven in number, soon
lifter taking their prize found them
selves In what nre called the falls of
the Ohio, a port of the river where the
current Is very rapid. It was night
mill a very dark night. Their captain
'.van somewhat anxious as to the safety
of the property he had become possess
ed of. though he cared nothing for hu
man life. Among the stores on the
lioat was a barrel of rum. which his
men appropriated. Tlte watched them.
Imping that they would get stupid,
but they stood an enormous quantity
of liquor mid were rather inclined to
dunce and sing on deck. Their cap
tain cursed them for Idiots, then Ignor
ed them, trusting to Tlte and the two
negroes to rmvlgnle the hunt.
Tlte passed the word to bis fellow
luves that he was about to attack
l lie pirates, and they promised to help
him Slnco the blacks were without
nny ut'iiis wlmtever, the attempt was
hazardous and If unsuccessful would
result in their death and possibly that
of the family When Tlte spoke the
Idriites were separated, but before he
could net two of them hud Joined the
upturn. However, Tite made up bis
mind to proceed.
Approaching the captain as if to
iiiiike a suggestion, be seized biro
around the body. The other two men,
quickly taking warning, sprung for
Tite and endeavored to pull him off.
One of them drew a pistol, but dropped
It on the deck. While he was looking
for It Tlte succeeded in kicking bin
comrade ln Uie stomach, which para
lyzed his efforts, and the negro, putting
forth all his gigantic strength, raised
the captain in his arms and threw httn
Into the river. Then, taking up the man
he bad kicked, he served him like
wise. Hy this time the man looking
for his pistol found it. but Tite seized
it mid sliot him dead.
Meanwhile the other two negroes,
whose enemies were separated, ran to
the neatest pirate, seized him and
threw hi iii overboard The other two,
seeing danger, got together and were
attacked by the two blacks. One of the
blacks was wounded by a shot, and
the other was gettiug the worst of it
when Tlte came up nd, seizing first
one pirate, then the other, threw both
overboard. At the moment the man on
guard below, having heard the scuf
fling, came out and was served ln the
same manner
All this haff scarcely been accom
plished when the captain was discov
ered climbing over the stem, but Tite
pushed him back into the river. Two
others of the pirates attempted to
climb aboard, but they were served in
Hie same maimer.
The colonel, being left unguarded,
now came up from below, expecting
that the pirates had concluded to mur
der the party and had commenced with
the negroes. When he found that the
boat was hi possession of bis faithful
slaves, that the lives of himself and
his family had been saved, his grati
tude knew no bounds. He gave every
one of them his freedom on the spot
and promised n additional reward in
the future.
Tile and his assistants successfully
navigated the boat to Louisville, and
the colonel, who had had eliough of
the river and Its dangers, coucluded to
stop there. The family went ashore.,
the stores were unloaded aud the flat

IF THE BRIDGE FALLS DOWN
Ihey sit upon the foot-bridge at
midnight,
And to make these lines to
"poet,'"
f the bridge fell while they were
there,
Neither one would know it.
Love in its early stages can be
jured by father's boot or moth
er's slipper. If it gets too far
uefore discovered, nothing will
cure it but marriage.

Hops, hops, hops, hops, hops.
One of our local hop men wants
to get a divorce from his wife
bt-cause she woke him up while
he was dreaming that hops were
selling for a dollar a pound.

councilman, he ain't no candi-
late?" "My son, if you're that

Independence
An Independence man was sure
that he had lost a quarter's worth
ot sugar Monday and was great
ly disturbed about it until his
wife found it in his vest pocket
some time during the night.
TO TAKE THE PLACE OF SU
GAR If sugar goes to the sky and
'hen will not come down, we'll
have to use these "honeys" who
gad about the town.
A number of people are firm in
their belief that Cooper keeps his
pianos and other noise producing
animals among the type in the
Monitor office and calls us up
when they wish to buy a xylo
phone, zither, zebra or yiddler.
We deny the allegation, but will
accept the commission.
How would you like to hear a
duet between a zebra and a yid
dler? Neither would we.
