Downtrodden Germany.

BERLIN, Aug. THE sentence pro-
nounced on the socialist deputies forms
the dominant subject of excited dis
cussion throughout Germany. With
the exception Of the clerical and con-
servative newspapers, all condemn the
verdict, and even conservative papers
admit there Is danger the verdict is an
attack upon political associations
apart from socialistic organizations.
The police of Berlin do not relax the
severity of the socialist hunt. No
public reunion of workmen. even
under police permit, is allowed free
discussion. For instance, meeting
of cartwrights, after disposing of the
society's business. discussed the pro-
gramme for trade. One speaker adj
vocated the holding of Il fete on Sun
day, that being the only day suitable
for persons not born with a golden
spoon In their mouths. The commits
sary of police held that the use Of this
phrase was an infraction of the law
and dissolved the meeting.

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 6.-There was
trouble last night ut the point where
the Minneapolis 4 st. Louis railroad
company cross the Manitoba's tracks,
In order to make connection with the
Northern Pacific. The work of build
ing the crossing was proceeding when
u Manitoba construction train having
on board officials, bosses and large
gang of laborers came up with the
purpose Of scattering the Minneapolis
crowd. This they succeeded in doing
after several collisions had occurred
and blows had been struck although
no one had been seriously damaged.
The Manitoba laborers were then kept
hard at work throughout the night,
changing the grade of the Manitoba
track, which they lowered some three
feet. This will seriously interfere
with the proposed connection.

The Artesian Well.

The work at the artesian well has been
progressing very finely this week and
the piping has reached depth of two
hundred and seventy eight feet. All ap-
pparances indicate that only few more
strokes Of the drilling rod and the much
desired water will shoot out from the top
Of TIE pipe. Mr.. Klecher, the engineer
in charge has practically demonstrated
that he fully understands the task he
has undertaken, and his success so far
has had the effect of convincing not few
skeptics that he was prepared to drive
down through sand, clay, gravel. quick
sand and rock. In boring artesian wells
the greatest difficulty ordinarily to be
encountered is the quicksand, which not
only opposes strong resistance to sin
hing the pipes. but in its sudden rising
through it prevents the drill from boring
deeper. 1t was thought that the diff
Guilty could not be overcome with the
company's machinery, but the result
shows that over fifty feet of quicksand
proved no serious impediment. and this
being passed, the we'll is now being bored
at the rate Of twenty five feet a day.
There is no doubt of success in a few
days and that our city will be supplied
with an abundance of pure water for
all purposes.-Lake Charles CONNER

he banged away while the contractor did

Tradition of Naucouchie.

Fifty-one years ago last spring, in CON-
pany with my father, the Baron de Behr-
Munster, from Belgium, and Mr.. De la
Rue, French Consul from Savannah, l
first visited the valley of Naucouchle, at
that time in Habersham county, now in
White. We spent the first night with
Capt. WHY, VINO then owned the lower
valley, and tue next day examined the
great mound, the little mound and the
connecting causeway. Both the Baron
and l had paid some attention to the CYCLIC
pean ruins of the old world, and to geology,
then in its infancy, and we came
to the conclusion that in
prehistoric times the valley had
been a lake, the great pentagonal
mound stronghold connected by
causeway with an outlying fort. The
next night and day we spent with Rich
ardson at his mines and assembled Yonah,
the Bear, 80 called, one account said,
from it's resem blance to crOuching bear,
another from Its having been the dwelling
place of a great wizard OF that name.
The Indians were still in the land and
old settlers were numerous. From these
| heard of Indian trsdItions-stories of
the wars With the VIII ties, of which the

have been one of Its chief leaders,

Weaver; had mucn to do with the Origi-
nal white settlers, and from tnem gath
cred all they had TO tell.
An article recently published in the
MORNING NEWS differs so widely from
what was communicated to me, as de-
rived from tie Indians themselves. that
think it worth while to say that Maui
cOuche ana lphegenia resembled each
other in their fate; that the small detach-
ment from DeSOtO's army that penetrated
to the mountains probably built the
! little stone tort between Clarksvllle
and the valley and persisted in
! it, and that the said valley,
the 'Star valley of the Cheloque" was,
and perhaps still is, considered as the
seat OF the empire OF past race which is
! to return to power at some future time.
