A Wonderful Cavern.

About mile from the market town
Of Adelsberg, in Austria, and three
miles from Trieste, is to be seen the
most wonderful cavern in Europe, and
possibly in the world, called the Adels-
berg cave, and which has been explored
for length of nearly three thousand
yards, as far as a subterranean lake.
This cavern consists of several grottoes.
from sixty to eighty feet high. The
interior resounds with the noise of
water, as a little river runs completely
through it, forming many cascades on
its way, and being finally lost to view
in assure. I his river continues its
subterranean course for about eight
miles, and after time it disappears
into the caverns of Laase, whence it
energies as a ndvigable river called the
Laihach. The entrance TO the cave of
Adelsberg is Illuminated by hundreds
of candles, and transparent curtain,
composed of la &c sheets of crystallized
limestone, is seen hanging from the
roof The vast hall or ballroom is
about 80 yards from the entrance. 1t
is three hundred feet long and one
hundred feet high, and is adorned Will
transparent sta actites of every kind Of
fantastic shape and form. Until the
year 1919, this ballroom was the only
part known; but at this date the wall
Of stalagmite was broken through, and
a series of chambers exposed to view
possessing a cathedral-like appearance.
from the stalactites in many instan eg
forming vast columns, by meeting the
stalagmites below. In the Adelsberg
cavern, numerous specimens are found
of the proteuS, kind of lizard that

MEMOIR.

Mrs. Susan Patton was born in Cen.
tire County, Pa, May 10, 1871, and
died at the residence of her son, Hon.
John Patton, Of CurwensyiIle, Pa,
Jan. 20, 1883, aged 81 years, 8 months
and 10 days.
She was one Of the early Methodists
of Center and Clearfeld Counties.
and member Of the Church for 70
years. She was married in 1912 to
John Patton, Lieutenant in the
United States Navy, in the command
of Commodore Decatur, and after.
wards Associate Judge of Clearfeld
County, and to whom she bore II
children, six Of whom, three sons and
three daughters, survive their mother.
the youngest now being past so years
Of age.
Being born during Gen. Washing.
ton s first term as President she had
lived through the administration of
every President Of the United States
down to the present. She was we'll
versed in National affairs, and loyal
to the government, giving one son, and
four grandsons to the army, and hear
tily rejoiced in the overthrow of sla-
very and the restoration Of the Union.
Grandma Patton is we'll known to
many of our citizens, She visited
her grand. daughter Mrs. Miles w.
Tate, of this town, few years ago.
Mrs. Hunter, mother Of Hons. John
A. and Joseph G. Dale, was then
living, and she and Mrs. Patton had
been school girls together. They
we're both devout christians then wor-
Shipping at the same Church, and both
died in the triumphs Of the Christians
faith, after giving long and useful lives
to the cause.
An intimate friend nf the family
and near neighbor had a singular
dream just after the funeral. She
dI canned that Mrs. Patton came down
from the cemetry into Mr.. Patton's
yard, and seemed 10 be searching ear
nestly for something bat declined to
enter the house when invited. She
said she was only looking for flower;
and plucking one of the most beauti-
full she could fud, placed it in her bo-
som, aud went back to the Cemetry
again. Within a week little Kate,
the idol of Mr.. Alex E. Patton's
home, was taken suddenly i'll and
DIED, and the fair flower found its rest
ing place indeed, in the bosom of the
ripe sbeaf in Gods harvest fields Of
Glory.
Thus has all afectionate home been
doubly wounded by one stroke of the
wing of the Angel of Death. The
ruthless, marble hand has touched
their two extremes of life and love,
and the dear forms sank into the same
grave, but the same Heaven now holds
these treasures Of the soul, and there
our "hearts are also"

OIL NOTES.

Within the past week four new
gushars have been completed on the
Cooper tract. On Wednesday last the
McCalmont No. 2 came in, and the
first "a hours it produced nearly two
thousand barrels.
The Patterson Nc. 2 struck the sand
on Friday, and after penetrating it
some little distance began flowing at
an eighteen.hundred barrel rate, which
it has kept up pretty well ever since.
The striking of these wells has caused
another tumble in the market, and on
Friday sent oil down i1to the eighties.
The other two wells are, the Reno
No. 2, and the Murphy No. 2. OF
these the Derrick of Monday says:
1.-TWO more wells were added to the
producing list in the Cooper tract dis.
trict on Saturday. The Reno No. 2
struck the sand about noon, and as
with the McCalmont No. 2, began
flowing as soon as the shell was bro.
ken through. It's location is 525 feet
east of the Reno No. 1 and 500 feet
south of the McCalmoDt No. 2. The
first gauge received on it at the Der.
rick Office was that it averaged fifty.
four barrels an hour for the first six
hours. This is considerably smaller
than the other wells, and as its loca.
tion is first class its failure to main.
tain large production at the open.
ing must he attributed to drainage.
Murphy's No, 2, located 900 feet
north OF No. /, and 693 feet west of
the Shannon No. 1, struck the sand in
the forenoon. The first report re.
ceived vas that it was showing better
than No. I. In the afternoon a Sec
ond dispatch said it had made no
flow, and last evening message was
received that it would be light pro.
ducer, and smaller than No. l. The
latter we'll started off at fifty.six bar.
rels. From lite location its owners ex-
pected light producer, but as some
producers are looking for belt run
ming east and west this venture was an
important test Cor that territory. 1t
being smaller than No. 1, and also
smaller than the Shannon wells to
the east Of it, would seem to prove
that the Reno belt runs very close to
the west edge of the district, and that
on the southwestern end there is no
prolific territory to the west of the
present producing wells"
P.S.-Since the above was in type
reliable reports come that the Muir.
ply No. 2. made 200 barrels the first
"a hours.
The following gauge on the wells in
the Cooper district, take on Monday
evening, and published in yesterdays Is
Derrick will be Of interest to our rea.
