WHAT IS WRONG?
Right at its doors, in the Blue moun

has an immense area of timber, almost
all vacant government land, to be Lad
for the taking.
Ana vet Hemmer and Morrow county
send away every year thousands of doi-

This eah should be kept in Morrcw

STRANGE iTRING.
Sandv Hancock tells of a sprinz hs
found out in the wil iest part of the T-'ue
mouctaics. It does not come to tne sur
face, forming a rivulet aa other sprigs
do, but is a hole in the g'ound one foot
acrois. lr.e water comes up
side of the hole and coeg out on the
other side, underground ; on, on it g:es,
inarusb.no one knowj where. The
watsr is always icy cold, and clear as
crystal, and it is always in a rush. The
depth caDnot be measured, and tne
stream be.ng eo ewift tha measurir.e
poles are forced out of the bands and
carried on underground, never to Is
seen again; and eo wun everTiLnr:t
dropfed into it; it is gone torev.r.
Standing tear this spring we can teei
the earth lightly tremble, and we can
hear a roarm underground like water
falling over a precipice.

The response was immediate, and al

cost of the printing.
