New York, June 14. -Nelson O'-Shaughnessy, the American diplomat who distinguished himself in Mexicu last year, returned today on the Cun-ard Liner Orduna from a mysterious governmental mission to Aurtria-Hungary, Germany and Great Britain. He admitted that he had been called home but would not reveal the reason. Col. House, who returned Sunday from Europe, was non-committed.

He is the' personal friend of President Wilson. It is the understanding that both these gentlemen are to be in Washington at once. It is known that Col. House is very close to the president. What word, these gentlemen bring back from Europe is known only to them.

About the oly thing that Colonel House has said about the war is that all the nations involved, that is the masses of people are weary of it, thoroughly tired of it and would rejoice to see st stopped. 5x3, 1 ff i mm i-m is I- 'wmrim: Sold Desperate Struggle With a Crazy Man.

(Continued From Lat Week.) Carson. Pair Twelve. Tnrt Relative to the maiden name and and ancestry of Mrs. Eleanor Carson Scroggs we have the following tradition from A. D.

Kestler, her great grand son: "Two Scottish maidens, said to have been very handsome, named Eleanor and Mary Alis and Mollie married two Scotchmen while they were living in their native country. Eleanor married a McDufT and Mary married a Gordon. Sometime afterward they emigrated to this country together with many others, forming a colony, and finally settling in Rowan county, now Iredell, near the South Yadkin river. Sometime after reaching there Mc-! Duff died leaving a widow, Eleanor, and a daughter also namsd Eleanor, and probably other children. His widow, Eleanor McDutf, was woed and won by a member of the colony named Vance.

By her second husband she had three children, two sons, Acha and Mosey, and one or more daughters, who afterwards moved farther weit. probably McDowell or Buncombe county. Her daughter. McDuff, by her first husband, married Wm. Carson by whom she had four sons.

Lindsay, Robert, Alexander and Andrew (born 1750, died 1S41) and two daughters. After Carson died she married John Scroggs, a widower, by whom she had (at least) one son, James Scroggs, my mother's She survived her second husband and after his death she made her home with her son, James Scroggs. at the old Scroggs place near Kest-ler's mill and was buried in the old Scroggs grave yard, three miles south of Statesville, where on a rough stone is chiseled S. This is taken io be Eleanor-Carson-Scroggs, died 1S14. Another 4J.

S. 1827" is presumed to be her son, James Scroggs. Whether William Carson left a son, Alexander, or not seems to be a matter of dispute. However, it is admitted that there was about that time an Alexander Carson who emigrated to Mississippi and if he was not a son of William who was he? There is a tradition that the Carson boys, after the death of their father, were, in accordance with the custom of the times, bound out. A all events Lindsay and Andrew drifted into the Hunting creek settlement in the northeastern part of Iredell county where they resided during the Revolutionary war.

For a portion of the war Capt. Andrew Carson was connected wit Gen. Marion's command and was employed in the dangerous service in conveying dispatches between Gen. Marion and Gen. Greene, when Corn-wallis was waging fierce war in South Carolina, and found in this service one congenial with his adventurous disposition.

As illustrations of his adventurous disposition and devotion to the principles for which he fought two incidents of his adventures in the "time that tried mens souls" may be related.

C. Houston failed in his purpose but he put up a game fight and entertained Sheriff Deaton and his assistants royally until he was subdued and placed in another and stronger cell. It was necessary to use a line of hose and hundreds of gallons of water to ubdue the lunatic, but force of numbers and force of water prevailed and Houston was finally sub dued. and led to a dry cell, where he was incarcarated for the night. It was just before church time that Houston decided to seek his fieedom and at a time when there were no officers about the jail.

Mr. Patterson, a relative of Deputy SherifT Gilbert's, was at the prison and he discovered Houston tampering with the window in his cell on the east side of the building. He telephoned the fire station and Offi cers Neighbors and Wasson responded. SherifT Deaton and Deputy Gilbert hurried to the jail and they found Houston armed with a pair of window weights and a brick that he had extracted from the wall. The sheriff made as if to enter the cell and Houston struck with the iron weight.

The sheriff dodged back and slammed the door and as the weight and steel door met sparks of fire flew. The officers were in a quandary as to what to do for the time being. Officer Wasson suggested that a section of hose be secured and the water turned on the raving pris oner. Accordingly this was done and Houston was driven against the east wall of the building. Bereft of his mind yet the negro still had sense enough to turn his back to es cape hurt from the strong stream of water that was held on him.

Driven to the wall and held there by the force of the water, his back turned to those who sought to place him under control, and with his remaining window I weight clinched in one hand and a brick in the other, the negro still refused to give under. While Houston was in his helpless condition Jie sherift saw his chance and with Deputy Gilbert anl Officer Neighbors following him he threw open the door of the cell and seized the drenched and almost unstripped darkey. A short scuffle followed. the negro was unarmed, the water cut off and Houston, without his weapons of was led from the cell by the officers, his hand manacled behind him'and placed in another cell for the night. It was necessary to use hundreds I of gallons of water in subduing the negro and because of a short circuit somewhere in the building and an over abundance of water on the floor the metal doors and steps in the up per story of the jail became charged with electricity and many who ven tured inside were slightly shocked.

How Houston managed to tear the window casings from their concrete foundations, extract the weights and remove bricks from the wall with nothing to work with but his hands is a mystery that the officers have not yet solved. I The negro tore out Stews Fries Boils IF COOKING IN AN "IDEAL" Fireless Cook stove entailed extra labor extra expense extra time and trouble-it would still be the part of wisdom to buy and use it. Whv7 Simply because food cooked in an "Ideal" is more healthy'and nutritious, and anything that tends towards a better condition of the health is to be desired and claimed. Foods cooked in the ordinary way lose largely of nutriment which is boiled, fried, i steamed or evaporated away. Naturally the delicate flavor and tender, nutritious parts ot the food go first, leaving a greatly impaired residue.

On" the other hand, the food you cook an ldea. Fireless Cookstove comes out just as you put it every particle in weight, nutrition and flavor retained. I he process is simple-it can't get out that's all. More than that is accomplished. A piece of meat so touh you could hardly cut it if cooked on a fire stove, if cooked in an "Ideal" will come out so tender and tasty it will almost melt on your tongue.
