CHILD FOUND AT E. CITY.

On Friday the sd of August a
complaint was made before Justice
w. D. Williams by the County
Commissioners that there was a
bastard child in the possession Of
Dempsey Harris and wife. Old and
INDECENT colored people, and that the
child was likely to be a charge upon
the county. Based upon the com
plant an investigation was made
which resulted in the confession Of
Daniel White, who stated he took ii
from a certain house from lady who
directed him to drown it, but that he
declined. and he was then instructed
to carry it away. That he did carry
it to the honse of the Old colored
people and the old woman told him
to put it outside and when it cried
she would take it in. The Justice
called on the mother and she then
swore to the child. A warrant was
issued and the father Of the child was
arrested and gave bond. The child
was then taken by kind hearted
people The conduct of the guilty
parties in connection with this whole
matter has been exasperating to the
feelings of the community. We do
not give the names Of the parties out
of sympathy and in consideration FIR
their family and friends.-Falcon.

A Raleigh letter says: Robert
Lesson Porter, the white man was in
Jail here quite awhile, suspected of
being the notorious murderer, Scott
Partin, was released ten days ago, as
YOU were informed. He has been
staying here since his liberation with
John Lee, fellow Irishman. For
the past few days Porter has exhib-
tied unmistakable signs of insanity.
Last night he sprang out of Lees
house and ran away as fast as posi-
bic. No news has been heard from
him. A letter from Cork, Ireland,
about this singular creature, says
that Porter was of good family, and
that his people have some money.
Porter was always eccentric and OF
rowing disposition Tile Republi-
cans continue to 'come over" News
was received yesterday that j. Wiley
Shook, ed tor of Republican paper,
the Clyde Register. in Haywood
county, and also delegate to the
National Convention at Chicago, had
left his party, declaring that he
would not support such man as
John B. Mason, the Radical candi-
date for State superintendent OF
Public Instruction, but would vote
for Finger Such assertions are
creating quite stir among the Re
publican folks.

A Pathetic Scene.

Chicago Times: They had taken tn
train at Grinnell on the Iowa Central,
and were en- route from Missouri to
their home in st. Paul. Their plain
but neat dress told of their moderate
circumstances in life. The youngest
child, sweet baby of only about two
years. was i'll, and the journey seemed
long to the anxious mother. Down from
the home of the ice king came the wild
storm, but the train fought its way des-
perately. and finally reached Lyle, in
the southern edge of Minnesota. Fur
ther progress was impossible. "Trains
all abandoned" was the unwelcome
message that came over the wire. Night
passed and morning came, and night
again. For four days the anxious par
ents watched the young life going out
into the unknown. Finally word came
that the first train would go north
out of Lyle there were in the coach a
father, mother, and two children. The
father carried in his arms little bundle
tenderly wrapped in shawl The con-
ductor came through to collect this tick
cts. He was feeling jolly, evidently
glad to be on the road again. Got your
| fortune in that bundle?' he iocosely re-
| marked to the passenger. a tear stole
| down the fathers bronzed cheek. and
| the conductor became suddenly sober.
| Placing his hands upon the bundle he
started back, for he felt a tiny baby arm
through the shawl. Yes" said the
father. whose lips were quivering, lit $
our baby. We wanted to get home be-
fore she died. but the storm came and
we could not" The conductor turned
back a corner of the shawl and gazed a
moment at the still, white face, from
which even death could not drive the
cunning dimples or the baby smile. Sud
| denly the thought of the company's reg
ulations and the law prohibiting the car
| rying of the dead upon the trains. In
halting sentences he explained the case
in the father. saying that he could only
carry it to the next station. They were
penniless, and to be put off among
strangers in such Il climate with the
little dead child in their care seemed
like Il cruel hardship to them. The
father looked dazed. and cry of des-
| pair broke from the mother S trembling
| lips. The conductor was scarcely less
affected. STOPPING down he said in a
low, almost inaudible tone: II don I
know what you have in that bundle
and / don't want to either. | have
children of my own at home. Guess
we'll get through on time" The baby
is sleeping now where its mother car
watch the flowers grow DER the littlt
mound in the springtime, and there is
one railway conductor whose name viii
ever be greatly remembered in hum
BILE St. Paul cottage.

Puget sound shipping.

It would naturally be supposed that
owing TO the loss of tue blakely mills
the lumber exports for the month oi
March would be smaller than that Ci
previous mouths. But not SO; it must
be remem bcrel that extra hours and a
double creg have been worked at
nearly all mills ana that 1900, ,29l feet
more lumber was shipped last month
over the amount shipped IL March 1887,
and =, 590 tons Of coal was exported over
the amount shipped during the same
month last year.
Daring the past month seventy -uine
cargUes of wheat, flour, coal and lumber
were exported from Puget Sound to

thirty eight lumber, and thirty-two coal
cargOes.

Gloucester Fishermen.

Judge j. &. Swan received Il letter
from Hon. Travis Daniel of Mont
gomery, Alabama, from which we are
permitted to make the following
extracts:
MONTGOMERY, ALA, March q, 'SS
L received your very interesting
letter Of the 18th inst, and have in
closed it to Hon. John W. Daniel.
L. S. Senator from Virginia, with
my warm Recommendation that, If the
status of the Alaska Commercial
company comes before Congress, to
pour red bot shot into them, as would
becomes son Of old Virginia. l
tolled of my warm interest in the
developement of the great we alth of
the northwest, especially in its fisher
les. which, believe, under proper
management, would exceed those of
the Atlantic's sea board. You will
probably be called on for futher in
formation on the subject, as there is
not a man on the Pacific coast who
understands this Behring sea ques-
ton better than you do. Tell the
new fishermen that wish them all
much success in their new field"
TRAvERs DANIEL.
Mr.. Daniel has been whaling in the
Arctic in early days, and has always
felt warm interest in our hfherIes,
and he knows whereof he speks.
