Columbus (Gs.) Enquirer.
just as the 5:S5 p. m. eastward bound fast
man train was steaming out OF Opeuka, a hack
containing three Irish gentlemen, drove up to the
oepot OF the Western railroad, only to be told
that the train that they were in search of-was

Five dollars more, said another, Mr.. Cooney,

Five dollars more" said the third, Mr.. Bru-

So much money TO be made, all In two hours
and twenty minutes, set the driver crazy. He
looked at his team for moment and then al
the thirty miles which lay between him and
Columbus and then at the probable and partly
possible SIS to be made by fulfilling the gentle
mems desires.
Use yer man, boss" he said. and cracking
his rawhfde whip. he mounted his cart and
made in slow time, but after that they warmed
DIP and In an hour they had caught up with the
train on the east side OF Salem. The darkness
OF the evening prevented the passengers on the
train from seeing the race, but the train, with
Us red light and fiery furnace, was distinctly
visible TO the ox-cart passengers as they whirled
over the wagon road that lay alongside the rail-
ROAD, and they We're more and more delighted
Is they saw the distance increasing between

Shooting Oil Wells with Nitro.GIy.
Cerisle.

A few years ago nitro -glycerine was only used
in tbe Oil wells III the very small quantities Of
period it has become very important agent In
bringing petroleum to the surface. When ex-
plcced IN the Oil wells over the Oil bearing rock
1t opens wide seams, through which the Oil
flows with great force and freedom, thus saving
much labor and expenditure of capital. There
Is used In every well that is drilled 80 to 200
pounds, which Is WORTH 50 cents pound to the
producer. 1t costs about 80 cents to the
manufacture: and nets so cents s on every
pounds are consumed every month, and
there Is a growing demand for it. CORES
pondent OF the sur. who had assisted at
the re. opening OF one oil well by the explosion
of 100 pounds of nitro glycerine at its bottom
gives the following description OF the operation
cartridge case or shell OF tin, Is feet long, was
lowered into the casing OF the well by means Of
q wire rope, ard then file with water. The
gly certne was then poured into the shell, and
being heavier than water, forced the latter to
flow out. When all the glycerlne had been
poured In the shell was lowered 1,sO0 feet into
the well, and there rested on what is called al
"anchor," 25 feet from the bottom. It was now
ready to be set off. There was about IOG feet
OF oil above the shell. Through the center OF
the shell ran a small tin tube. inside OF
which was small iron rod In four pieces. On
the end OF each piece was placed common
percussion cap. At the top OF this rod was
tin plate SO arranged that anything dropped
down through the casing would strike it, and
the force Of the falling article would set OF the
caps which would In turn explode the nitro
g!ycerine. The charge was exploded by drop
ping a small piece OF iron tubing into the well.
AT the moment OF the discharge "the earth
trembled violently, then came dull sound,
and second later there rose into the bright
moonlight, 100 feet high, solid stream of oil,
fall for three minutes. This stream of Oil was
one loot IN diameter when 1T began to flow, but
IL soon settled down to stream OF about one
and one-half inches, which is a natural f1ow.-

The Philosophy OF Corsets.

1t is said that the natural figure is much
more like an II than V, and therefore Mrs.
objects to any artificial contraction which
draws it out of sim1litude with an Ii: supple
mentiDg her protestatiOns by physiological
diagrams, extracted from some medical work,
exhibiting the terrible consequences of tight
laciDg. That many women do possess figures
more ike an II than V no one VIII deny, but
to the ideal figures such as that which Is based
upon an Intimate knowledge Of the human
frame, and which should serve as guide la
all suggestions, the very converse OF this des
cript1On applies. Whenever exercise Is taken
which developes every part OF the body, the
waist naturally becomes slim. And not only

Your correspondent was suddenly called to

pressing. for a friend had been severely
winged" in duel-a sufficiently common
event In pugnacious Pesth-and he made for
the Staatsbann with all due speed and took the
next train for Hungary. This, as is usual In
which tore along at 20 mites an hour. The
carriage which he entered contained two
ferocious looking Magyars-booted braided and
pomatumed. They screwed up their rnustachios
to level with their eyes. glared about with a
'What-do-y ou-t think of-thaJ' expression, and.
With many ''TeremteteS," cursed the unpunc.
tuality OF departure, the heat, the time, the

were real MagyarS and out-and- out patriots
The other oc, upants OF the compartment were
a Well,dressed, good looking youth, a Ger
man, who appeared dreadfulIy sleepy, and an
1nnocent-looklng cd gentleman of, say sixty,
the pattern OF benign and paternal mildneSS-
a sort of Magyar Mr.. PIckwick. A moment
later we started. The old gentleman addressed
several remarks to the young one, who, how
ever, VOuchSafed but scauJ reply between
mighty yawns and signs OF fatigue. In a very
Few minutes The youthful German was snoring
haId. The cd gentleman then turned to us
and proved very communicative, telling us how
the youth opposite was his son, deploring at the

lifted the flap OF the youths coat, and took out
a bG,ky pocket book. which ne placed in his

after this the train stopped at Pressburg The
old gentleman begged us to look after his son,
his sons hand-luggage and his own overcoat
whilst he was absent he got out aud returned

pletely. The train once more started and we
awoke the tired TeGton and informed him how
his father had been left behind. and how he had
had taken the pocket book with him, piece Of
intelligence which produced the most startling
results. The sleepy one began to use the most
urfillal language, felt frantically for his pocket
book, and uttered howl of rage. He remained
uDintellgible for some time. but at last he
managed to gasp out that he had no father.
