MYSTERY OF THE CANYON.
A Little Child Found Wandering In the
Menatash.

A very strange story, one that
seems almost incredible, comes from
the Menatash canyon. brought down
by people of well-known character who
reside there, says the Ellensburg Capt.
tai. 1t seems that two or three weeks
ago one of the few residents of the can
yon was driving down on his way to
town on a lumber wagon, when he saw
before him in the road a little child,
girl, not over years old. She was too
young to give any account of herself and
as she was a mile and half from any
house, the man was naturally astonished,
and quickly concluded that something
was wrong. He took the babe into his
wagon and proceeded slowly, stopping at
every turn of the road to find, IL posi-
BILE, the parents or custodians of the
child.
He came on to town, inquiring all along
the way without result. On the return
trip he again used every endeavor to as
certain the identity of the little one, but
on failing entirely to unravel the mystery
he took her to his home, where she was
made one of the family, and. although all
the neighbors have been made acquaint-
ed with the facts none of them have been
able to secure any clue whatever.
The child was comfortably dressed
when found and was not suffering for
| food or care at the time. All who have
seen her declare they nave never seer
| her before and II Is an absolute certainty
| that she is not child of the canyon. The
strange occurrence has puzzled every
body but public opinion has resolved
| itself down to the theory that the child
was undoubtedly abandoned deliberately
that probably those having her in charge
heard the man coming in his wagon and
placed the tot in his way only moment
| before he came in sight, knowing thai
| att nd nj lima ta-
| ly care and possibly a home. If this the
| DRY is correct the heartless wretches
made no mistake in their calculations, fol
| the child has a home with the man whC
| picked her up. and 1t is his intention tC
| keep her II the mystery is not cleared up

A Z to ) Game.

The further the gubernatorial inves
tigation proceeds, the more plain it be-
comes that nothing but a one sided in.
vestigation is intended or will be made.
The arrangement of the sub committees,
the rules adopted for the admission of
evidence and the attitude of the blindly
partisan majority in the Legislature in
the Couch-Steele election case, indicate
the final outcome. It's simply a seven
to five game, with the odds almost
wholly on the side of the seven.-

Feeding Charcoal TO Fowls.

Charcoal is great aid TO digestion
and should always be placed within
the reach of fowls. An excellent form
in which to give it is as charred corn.
Throw a dry cob of corn into the fire
until the grains are we'll blackened,
then throw it, without shelling, to the
fowls, and watch how they will peck
at it. Another way is to shell the corn
and put it in the oven OF the kitchen
stove, in a baking pan. Stir it occa-
sionally and leave it in until thorough
charred, and if the weather is cold feed
it as warm as you can bear your hand
in it, The fowls like it wonderfully
well.

had been elected, was prevented from
taking his seat by piece of high hand
ed outlawrv. A contest law was passed
and a commission was appointed fol-

crimes said to have been committed
This commission instead of undertak
ing an investigation that would be OF

scribes method of procedure which
actually prevents the accomplishment
of the very thing for which it was ere,
ated, namely, an investigation. Under
these rules both the contestant and the
contestee are compelled to plead. The
contestant with all of the election ma

small army of State officials and State

tinuance in fat offices as an incentive
to active efforts, at his disposal, fails to
find any frauds, but can only make a
contest on the technical construction of
a law requiring evidence of the pay.

On the other hand, the contestee is
seriously handicapped. He must know
comparatively little as to how the elec.
tion machinery operated. He has no
employees who will make his interests
their own for the Office that may be in
it, and if he happened to be man of
small means, unable to employ attor-
neys and to pay for the procurement of
evidence, he would at once by the very
terms of the contest be ruled out and
have no status before the com ission
because OF his financial inability to pro-
cure the necessary evidence and have
prepared the proper pleadings. This of
itself is sufficient reason for damning
the alleged nvestigation as one sided

The Assembly of North Carolina in
their October session, 1779, which ter
minated some time in the following
months of November and December,
erected the county of Sullivan. The
act for that purpose recites the then
late extension of the northern boundary
line of the State; saying, it had never
until lately been extended by actual
survey further than to that part of Hol-
ston river that lies directly west, from
place well known bv the name of the
Steep Rock and it says, that all the
lands westward of the said place, lying
on the north and northwest sides of the
said river Holston, have by mistake of
the settlers, been held and deemed to
be in the State of Virginia, owing to
which mistake they have not entered
the said lands in the proper offices. 1t
recites also, that by line lately run,
meaning without doubt that run by
Henderson and Walker, it appears that
a number of such settlers have fallen
into this State. 1t makes provision for
securing their lands, plantations and
improvements. Sullivan County is
made to begin on the Steep Rock;
thence along the dividing ridge that
separates the waters of the Great Ken
hawa and Tennessee, to the head of In
dian Creek; thence along the ridge that
divides the waters of Hoston and Wa
tauga; thence direct line to the high.
est part of the Chimney Top Mountain,

County is that part of Washington
County which lately was on the north
side of the line. Isaac Shelby was ap-
pointed to command the regiment of
