A Trip to Mount Mitchell.
Mount Mitchell, the tallest moul

Mount Mitchell, the tallest noun
tain east of the Rockies, was so
named in honor Of a surveyor, Mr. -
Mitchell of Charleston, who lost his
life while surveying the mountain
by falling down steep precipice in
to lake of water. His body was
carried to Asheville and buried, but
afterwards it was decided to remove
it to the top Of the mountain on
which he lost his life. It being so
very steep the body was carried up
on the shoulders of men, there bur
led and monument erected, but
this the violent storms threw to the
ground whereit now lies.
Thousands visited the mountain
this summer from all parts Of the
United States and many spent the
night at the log hotel to see the sun
rise and set in all its glory can
be seen there two hours earlier
than in the plains.
We left Hendersonville at a very
early hour so as to reach AsheVllle
in time to buy our round trip tick
cts to Mount Mitchell and to, catch
the eight o'clock train. We reach
ed Mitchell Station at nine and found
the mountain train there waiting
for us-about two hundred who were
to make the trip that day. We back
ed out of the station for about a
mile, going forward and backward a
great>many times until we finally
reached Mitchell Lodge, one mile
from the top. Here we were glad
to get out and buy hot coffee, which
was served by several mountain
women in one of the laborer's huts.
From Mitchell Lodge one has to go to
the summit on foot. The ascent is
so steep and slippery That many
who started had to turn back.
We made the trip in August and
were not prepared for the intense
cold we encountered when we had
reached half way, and we're glad to
warm at the little stove we found at
Mitchell Lodge where the car stopped.
Words fail to describe the wonder
full scenery we passed from noun
tain to mountain until the lofty
peak of Mount Mitchell was reached,
where one feels as if lifted entirely
out of ones self ,and thoughts of the
Great Master Hand that formed
these magnificent structures were
uppermost in the mind. The clouds
below us concealed much of the
beautiful scenery from our view,
but in the distance could be seen a
mountain bathed in sunlight and
perhaps the next in deep shadow.

is VAUGHAN INSANE?
Jury to Decide Mental Status OF
Noted Prisoner.

TU Vaughan, who was sentenced
to be electrocuted for criminal as
sault alleged to have been commit
ted while he was superintendent o.
the Odd Fellows Orphan home, near
Greenville, will be tried for his san
eity before Greenville county jury
in January.
Vaughan is confined in the State
penitentiarv, where he has been con-
stantly ever since his conviction in
1918. He fought his case through
the State courts and up through the
United States supreme court, but all
confirmed the sentence of electrocu-
ton. When he was taken back to
Greenville some weeks ago to be re-
sentenced to death, the Judge, on the
showing made, ordered that the
question of Vaughan's sanity should
be referred to jury and no further
steps in his case will be taken until
"A jury returns verdict as to wheth-
4 lr he is sane or insane.
/ Vaughan has been apparently in
sane for some months, and it is said
that he sits in the State penitentiary
without saying a word to any one
and with vacant look on his face.
He is said to be nearly physical
wreck. and many strong men are in
clined to the belief that he has be-
come insane since his conviction.
lOthers think he is simply feigning
insanity in the hope of escaping the
electric chair and being sent to the
State Hospital for the Insane. That
Vaughan is sane was held by a noted
alienist of Maryland, who examined
him while here last spring.

Mr.. Riley said that the agree
ment between his service and the
state game and fish commission,
made last year, is being renewed
with Carlos Avery, state game and
fish commissioner. Under the
agreement. the forest rangers are
appointing deputy game wardens,
and incidental to their regular
work they assist in the enforce
ment of the state game laws.
They make arrests only in fragrant
cases where it is impossible to
notify the state authorities. They
are also to keep record as far as
possible of the number of deer and
moose in their districts, and the
number killed each season. The
government has nine men in the
Superior National forest all the
year round, seven of them rangers,
and Is extra guards in the summer

Fire Prevention

The state insurance department
in a bulletin gives the following
pertinent advice tending to prevent
winter fires. The bulletin says:
STOVES a metal stove
board on the wood floor under the
stove, and extending at least twelve
inches in front of the ashpit door
Protect all walls and partitions
within two feet of any stove with a
metal shield, leaving an air space
between the shield and the wall.
Leave no kindling or other wood in
the oven oven night. Do not hang
clothes too near the stove or stove
pipe.
PIPEs-See that the lengths of
stovepipe are we'll fitted together
free from rust holes and parted
seams, wired firmly and fitted per-
fectly into the chimney. Stove
pipes passing through partitions,
walls, floors. attics and roofs are
dangerous at best. Where these
must pass through partitions, walls
or floors, always use a large,
ventilated double thimble. YOU
cannot observe the stovepipes in
the attic. They may come apart
or rust. Fluff and spider webs are
likely to gather on and around
them, to be set on fire when you
least expect it.
CHIMNEYs-Chimneys should be
built from the ground up and never
rest on wood supports. The
settling of the woodwork will
cause cracks in the chimney. Nol
should the chimney walls be usec
to support joists or other wood
work. Soft brick and poor mota
are often responsible for defects il
the chimney. Use a good quality
of brick and cement motar, ul
through the first floor and abov
the roof. Chimney walls shoult
be at least eight inches thick, tn
flue of ample size and lined witt
fire clay or terra Gotta. Never stui
up f1ue holes with rags or paper
nor cover them with cheesecloth
or anything but a metal stop
Chimneys should be cleane'

PLENTY WILD LIFE
Game Reserve Fine Ground for
Moose and Deer

Wild life in Minnesota's big
north woods" is not appreciably
decreasing, according to Smith
Riley, of Denver, district forester
who was interviewed by a Mime
apolis reporter after weeks visit
to Superior National forest. one OF
the government forests under his
general supervision.
I was talking recently with
DR.. w. T. Hornadav, just after he
had made'a visit to Minnesota, "
said Mr.. Riley. He was very
pessinistic about Minnesota and
declared that game IS disappearing
rapidly because of insufficient pro-
lection. l desired on this trip to
get at the facts. We have a work
ing agreement with the state game
and fish commission, under which
all our men are deputized as
deputy game wardens, and they
are on the lookout at all times for
violations of the game laws within
the forest. The greater part of the
forest is state game preserve, in
which hunting is barred at all
seasons of the year.
In company with L. M.
Brownell. supervisor of the Super
ior National forest, 1 went from
Ely by way of Fall lake to the
boundary, and then down to Lake
La Croix by canoe, returning the
same way. From my own observa-
tion and my talk with the men, I
believe that deer and other wild
animals are holding their own in
that region, except possibly moose.
Lumber operations seem to have
frightened the moose away, but
the scarcity may be more apparent
than real. AS this was a COO
summer the moose did not seek
the water so much and that may
account for so few being seen. Al
any rate, after the lumbermen are
through conditions will be restored
There is one thing 1 noted
which the people of the state
would do we'll to attend to. Fish
ing in the boundary waters i,
going ahead on large scale und-r
law by which the state licenses
nets for the fishing. The bound
ary lakes in that region are not
