HOIJSE IN WHICH ANDREW
JOHNSON WAS BORN.
One of the Smallest and Quaintest Dwellings in Raj
eigh. Situated ON East Cabarrus

One of the sights of Raleigh, N. c., is
the house in which Andrew Johnson, pres
ident of the United States, was born, the
building being one of the smallest and
ouaintest dwellings in the city, with the
old-time hip-roof, dormer windows and
tiny panes, the shingles rich green with
moss. the chimney part granite and part
brick, and with an old vine, Virginia
creeper, over the doorway, while tall
black locust tree casts in summer shade
over the little front yard. No president
ever had a more humble home than this.
The planks are of yellow pine, fastened
with handmade nails, many OF which
have been carried away by relic-hunters.
The house is only 12x1S feet in size, one
room being only 6x10 feet. 1t was on the
upper floor that the president was born,
the way to this floor being UP a corkscrew
like stairway. The ceiling OF the lower
rooms is only feet high. Negroes have
for twenty-five years lived in the building
and are very proud of it, showing it to

President Johnson's father was a very
humble employee at an old tavern or hotel
here and later looked after the interests
of a. private family so far as the stables
humble in her employments, and in the
little town which Raleigh was in the early
part of the last century both these people
were well known, and so was the boy,
their son, who, by the way, was to fill
one of the highest of earthly positions.
Jacob Johnson, the father OF the president,
died OF pneumonia, due to his efforts in
saving the life of friend from drowning
in mill-pond on Crabtree creek near
Raleigh In the quaint old city cemetery
now almost disused, but admirably kept,
is the grave and monument above it of
Jacob Johnson. The latter is of brown
stone and bears the following inscription,
one which many far more pretentious
man might well be proud to know would
be inscribed with justice on the shaft
which will rise above his grave:
I'm memory of Jacob Johnson, an hon
est man, beloved and respected by all who
knew him. Born -, died January -,
1872, from disease caused by an oyer-ef-
fort in saving the life of his friend
The monument was unveiled in 1867 and,
strange, indeed was the scene on that oc-
casion. There, bareheaded and facing the
monument, stood the president, surround
ed by his cabinet, and with Gen. Grant
commanding the army, and other noted
generals near him, and in this imposing
party the leading residents of Raleigh, in

resenting all branches Of the service. The
president made no remarks a: the grave,
but later in the day delivered an address
from the balcony OF the principal hotel, in
which he took occasion to refer in the
most grateful way TO the tribute which the
People OF Raleigh had thus paid to the
memory OF his father. About This speech
some strange and inaccurate statements
have gone out, one being to the effect
that the president had used the phrase
1.-The grave of the man reputed to be my
father He said no such thing, all his
remarks having been in the highest degree

Broad GauQIae the Road.

The work of broad gauging the G.
& G. road is progressing as rapidly
as the $50 Japs and Greeks employed
can be crowed along and material
obtained. The heavy rails and wide
ties will have reached Dayton today.
The long curve at the Mound House
will be done away with and a
straight shoot made through the
chalk hills. The manner of con-
structing the road is such that it
will not interfere with the running
of the narrow gauge road in the
least. The large 8o-pound rails are
being laid outside of the small rails
and enough long ties placed under
them to keep them in place. This
system will be followed all along
the line, except, possibly, where the
grades and curves may have to be
reduced. After this work has been
completed the long ties will be put
in all along and the road-bed ballast
ed up so that heave engines and
trains can be used. The scene of
operations at Mound House and
down the line to Dayton presents a
lively appearance, the Mound House
yards being lit up by electricity at
night. The S. P. Company is landing
narrow gauge cars at Mound House
daily from its California road, but
notwithstanding, the freight block
ade seems to be getting heavier. The
broad gauge will probably not reach
Wabuska until the middle of Janu.
airy or the first of February next.

Water Matters.

Last week J. 1. Wilson, J. z. Gig
noux and George Simpson, of the
executive committee of the Walker
River Water Association, in COM
pany with G.. B. Waldo, D. w. Me-
larkey and ]. B. Gallagher, repre-
senting the Fox, Mickey and Green
wood Ditch Companies, met in Reno
to discuss the water question and
consult with attorneys in regard to
the suit recently instituted by T. B.
Hickey. Nothing definite was done,
but the committee sent the following
telegram to Miller & Lux to see how
that concern stood in regard to join
ing with the people here to secure
government storage:
"MILLxR & Lux Representatives,
for one hundred and fifty water
users of Walker River are here to
act in conjunction with you in as
signing their rights to the govern
ment and consolidate in action
against Hickey in his suit. Do you
contemplate enjoining Hickey from
prosecuting California suit, answer
Immediately" ]. l. WILSON,
b. GALLAGHER.
The following answer was duly
received:
"MKssRs. Wnsox AND GALLAaHKR-We
favor a government reservoir. We
would like to cooperate with you in
Hickey suit, but impraeticable until
settlement is had between us, which
would have to be done Immediately.
II YOU wish to adjust our respect

dent that that the Miller & Lux peo-
pie are not quite ready to accept a

An lsdlcatloa Of Baslaess.

M. J. Heller and associates, who
have an option on the Bluestone
group of copper mines in this dis
trict, have made location for water
power on the West Walker River
in the canyon through which the
river enters this valley from Smith
Valley, and have had some work
done on the location. They will
probably continue to do holding
work on this property until it def
nitely known whether or not the
mines prove big enough for them to
take over. Considerable develop
ment work has been done on the
Bluestone claims in the past three
months and this work has proved
very satisfactory. Much more de-
velopment work has been planned
enough to keep the present force Of
miners at work tor many months to
come-but the location of this power
site would seem to be an indication
that the parties thought very favor
ably of closing the option on the
mines. AS soon as the holders of
the option do this it means that a
large concentrating and separating
plant of the latest improved pattern
will be constructed near the mines,
and that the works will be operated
by electric power generated on the
river and transmitted to the concen-
trating plant, distance of only six
or seven miles. 1t also means that
an electric line of road will connect
the works with the G. & G. at Wa
buska or point near there.

No Polsoa In ChamberIala's Cough Remedy.

Board of New South Wales, Aus

clared was entirely tree from poison.
This exception was Charnberlain's

of all narcotics makes this remedy
