ported from Sherwood, Calumet coun-
ty. A young girl named Mary Skilo-
sky, daughter of prosperous farmer,
saw a bear enter swamp near her fa-
ther's house, and the men folks being
absent, and she fearful lest bruin
might pick up one or more of the
young Polanders who resided near,
determined TO kill the animal. There
was no gun in the house, but there

= J Under the Ground.

Two weeks ago Byron Robertson, a
eolored man, living near the cemetery,
brought us a piece of charred or rot
ten wood which he said was chip
from a log found in well he was
digging. This log extended across
the well at distance of forty-four
feet below the surface. After cutting
through the log bold vein of water
was struck of pure freestone quality.
The question of how and when the
pine log reached it's present location
has puzzled the heads of all who have
discussed the matter. The hill beneath
which it was found seems to have
been firmly planted just where it is
for rcenturies.-Meriwether (Ga.) Vim

STANLEY A WELSHMAN.
Some Historical Facts About the Noted

From the Washington Star

From the Washington Star.
The reopening of the discussion as to the
real location of SANKEY'S birthplace started
a reporter on the hunt for Welshmen resi-
dent in this city. Half a dozen of th EN-
knew but little of the traditions which have
attached themselves to Stanley's birth, but
at last one was found who had some inter
esting information. Henry NJ Stanley
said ne. sis a Welshman. | saw in yester-
days STAR he continued, that the people
in England are again discussing the explOr
er's nationality, and as | knew something
of his boyhood, you are welcome to the
facts Staney's mother was servant girl
in public house az Wrexham, in North
Wales, and was apparently q very respect
able woman. She was quiet and retiring
in her disposition, and was rather good
looking. Her name was Ann Rowlands 1t
was somewhat Of a surprise when it became
known that she had given birth to a son.
She had never been cOnSDlcuOusly in any
ones company and such an event was en-
tirely unlocked for. The little ldpSuS
would, however, have been soon forgotten
and forgiven if the name of the boys father
had only TRANSFERRED, bat that never was
made public by the mother. She kept her Sc
cret and nursed her child. 1t was generally
believed, however land l have often partici-
pated in the gossip over the matter, that
the paternity belonged to reputable citi-
zen named Rowlands-a man of good family
and well educated. A few months after the
birth of the child Rowla ids moved away
from Wrexham, and, it is said, went
abroad; out before he left he supplied Ann
Rowlands with a sum Of money suffi-
GENTLY large to pay for the maintenance of
the chi d Tor several years. When the boy
was about five years old his mother was
taken seriously i'll; think she had typhoid

being educated in the wOrkhouse. How he
left the workhOuse, came to this country
and was adopted by Mr.. Stanley are facts
already we'll known and established. They
are, however, no more indisputable than the
fact that Henry NJ. Stanley was born in
