a Great Mystery Solved by Acct
dent,

Last Sunday about l o'clock p. m,
Ben Stump came to town in an ex
tremely excited state oc mind and re.
lated the following strange story:
Some men were working the road on
Yellow creek last Saturday; among
them was Albert Stallman, who told
Archie Borrows that some time about
the last days of February he (Stall.
mani had started to 90 from yellow
creek to his home ON the mountain
adjacent and that lac had gone through
the woods near way. Some dis
lance up the mountain side, at least
four hundred yards from the public
road, he found dead horse with a
bullet hole in its head and its throat
cut, and few feet above the horse
WAS what had the appearance of a
grave dug due north and south six
feet by three. which had apparently
been filled up and the dirt had set
tied to level or little more. Deem
ing this tidings Of sufficient import
ance a CHRONICLES representative and
Attorney w. l.. Stevenson procured
horses and hurried to the scene. On
our Journey we secured the services Of
Archie Burrows, who acted as a
guide, and N time was lost in find
idg the spot where Stallman claimed
to have made the tragic discovery.
There we found the carcass ola badly
decomposed horse, and dilligent
search MAS Immediately made tor the
grave which We could not find. In.
quiring of people living in the imn,e-
diate neighborhood brought no infor-
nation as to whose horse il was. Mrs.
Cox and her little boy had seen three
men going up the point toward where
the carcass was found with two horses
and later heard two gun or pistol
shots in that direction, but paid no at
tention to the matter, thinking it WAS
only some men looking at the tract of
land with a view to making a pur-
chase, the men having kept on up the
mountain instead Of returning to the
road. Thus baffied and puzzled We
wendell our way homeward, and
short distance from town overlook
Alonzo Smith, who lives in Richie
county, and after travelling for some
distance with him, during which time
not a word Was said about the mys-
terry, when, by accident, he spoke of
having had to kill good horse that
got one Of its legs broken OH yellow
creek last February-,iescribing our
spot sominutely that, that

The only place ntpwn you can get
good tooth brush il at the Drug Store.

Dan McCune and Chess Shafer
were brought before Squire G. w.
Ritchea by Constable John Sickles
last Tuesday on charge of ceiling
splriruous liquors, &c. without Il
State license. Shafer made a state
ment in which he virtually confessed
his guilt and McCune waived exam
nation, and in default OF bail for 8 100
Shaier Was Committed to- Jail, aud in
default Of 800 for appearance and
$500 to sell no more mhiskoy McCune
WAS committed to Jail also. Mr. Nc
Cu"e's statement and general deport-
mcnt indicated clearly t" our mind
that he wanted to go to jail. He
complained, or stated that he had
been n burden to his friends for some
time, that he had 40 means If support
and could prove that he had not been
blessed with any Of this worlds goods
for long time. McCune is getting
well up in years and states, and no
doubt his statement is true, that he
has never been in any trouble or been
arrested before. Shafor is only boy
and was doubtless led into the troub.
10 by some one else. The whole mat.
ter is one that should be seriously re.
