tinuance. The aperture in the rock
through which it triclSled bore the APP
pearance of having been recently
opened; fragments were lying near IL
that seemed TO have been Just broken
off. The bed of the little stream was
entirely free from moss or weeds; and
after proceeding short distance it
dwindled and disappeared, either sucked
up in vapor by the torrid air, or alb.
sorbed into the dusty soil. Manifestly,

lated Freeman. There was an earth
quake last night, which swallowed up
the spring in the Trednoltes' garden:

lie removed the saddle from the mus
tang, and turned him loose to make the
best Of such scanty hcrbage MS he could
find. Then he unpaclsed his own pro-
visions and made comfortable meal;
after which he rolled cigarette and
reclined on the spot most available, TO
rest and recupernte. The valley, or
gorge, lay before him in the afternoon
light. 1t was strange and savage
spectacle. Had IL been torn nsunder
by some stupendous explosion, 1t could
not have presented rougher or more
chaotic aspect. To look at it was like
beholding the secret places Of the
earth. The rocky walls were of diff
ferent eolors, yellow, blue; and
red, In many shades and gradations.
They lowered ruggedly upwards,
sharply Swallowed and brightly lighted,
mounting In regular pinnacles, parting
in black creyices; here aud there vast
masses hung poised on bases seem
ingly insufficient, ready to topple
over on the unwary passer beneath. A
short distance to che northward the ra-
vine had turn, and projecting pro
montory hid its further extreme from
sight. Freeman made up his mind to
follow It up on foot after the descend
ing sun should have thrown shadow
over it. The indications, in his judp-
ment, were not without promise that a
system OF judiciously-applied hastings
might open up source OF water that
would transform this dreadful barren
ness into something quite different.

Boys Made into villa Men.


From the Londen Chronicle.
There Gre many curious trades in
the world, but the most strange must
surely be the artificial manufacture
OF wild men" Yet a we'll known
English doctor in China has just certi
fed from his own personal experience
that this art is regularly prac,sed in
the Aowery kingdom.
First youth is kidnapped, then bit
by bit he is tlayed alive and the skin
OF dog or q bear is grated piece by
piece upon him. His vocal chords
are next destroyed by the action OF
charcoal to make him dumb, and the
double purpose of causing "etiolation"
OF the skin and utter degradation OF
the mental facnlties is effected By
keeping him immured in a perfectly
black hole for 4 number Of years. In
fact, by treating hlm like brute for a
sufficiently long time he is made into
one.
At last he is exhibited 20 the en-
tirely credulous Chinese as wild man
of the woods, and his possessors reap
a rich harvest. The priests, it seems,
are adopts at the art. When a kid
napper, however, is caught by the
people he is torn to pieces. and when
the authorities get him they torture
him and promptly behead him.

RAILS THAT LINCOLN SPLIT.
THEY STILL FORM A FENCE ABOUT ,
PETERSBURG OnL) FARM.

ways OF interest, and it seems as if
there are few localities in Illinois that
do not contain some pioneer who re.

chershes a relic Of the martyr president
a visit was made the other day to the

little inland village of Fountain Green
lying near the line of Hancock and
McDcnough counties. At his home
resides Mr.. Simmons aged mother,
MIS-. Miranda Simmons. She is one
of The sturdy pioneers of the West.
She came to Illinois FROM Kentucky
when she was fifteen years OF age, and
settled with her parents near Peters.
burg, where she married. They lfter-
wards lived on the Alfred Gordon
farm, near Petersburg. the fences of
which are to this day composed of
the identical rails cut by Abraham
Lincoln. Mrs. Simmon gave the re-
porter an interesting account of Lin
coins famous rail splitting. 1t seems
that while Lincoln was stud ing law
at Petersburg he and friend named
Hanks-the latter a relative Of LIN
coins mother-who vas also STUDYING,
boarded at Alfred Gordon's. This
Mr.. Gordon was an Old friend of the
Lincoln family. As Mr.. Gordon did
not charge ;he young men any board,
they undertook to make rails enough
for two farms. So for some months
MIR. Lincoln and young Hanks put in
part of their time making rails.
Nj. Lincoln made most Of the rails,
and those cut By Hanks were used in
fcrcing farm owned by the father
of Alfred Gordon. Mrs Simmons
remembers Lincoln well as a smart
but awkward boy long before he ap.
peered in public life.
