what a Reporter should Be.

Many young men seek an entrance to
newspaper work because they have heard
that reporter goes everywhere and never
has to pay anything to get there; that
tickets to him are an unknown ard un-
necessary quantity; that the talismanic
word reporter" will open all doors. This
Is where these young men fool themselves.
The man who wishes TO become a reporter
must be man Of principle. Many temp
tations will he thrown in his way, and
these he must withstand. Hemust possess
large chunks of common sense and tact,
for he will meet all kinds of people under
all sorts of conditions, and he must be able
instantly to judge the proper way in
which to approach his man and his sub
ject Then, too, great discretion must be
his, and he must remember that he hasn't
day or Two IN which to arrive at con-
clusion as to how best TO act. Courage he
willrequire; staying power, tireless energy,
willingness to work hard and long, accu-
ratenes, good general education-all
these are part and parcel of the reporter
But he may have these and other qualities
and still not make a reporter. If he is
obliged to wait for an introduction to
news before he can make its acquaintance,
ne can earn more money driving tacks
then in newspaper work,-B1gat9 Express

Sometimes when DER my way
A shadow darkly lowers,
And night succeeds the day,
And cherries pass the hours,
Some pleasing thought Of you
Comes like ray of light;
The clouds pass from my view,
And earth is fair and bright.

Hope on hope falls to the ground,
Yet the heart shall hope again;

Hearts shall hope and hearts shall bleed,

Out of Sight But Not Out of Mind

William Wilson (colored), who lives at
Thunderbolt, was in Justice Sheftall's court
Saturday for cursing and abusing. E. I.
Elchholz, a groceryman near the Savan-
nah, Florida and Western railway, was the
pro ecutor. He alleged that Wilson bought
goods from him and got several dollars in
his debt. All at once Wilson stopped
trading at Eichholz's store, and the grocery
man did not see anything more of him until
yesterday. He approached Wilson about
the debt, when Wilson turned upon him
with threats of violence. He cursed
and abused the groceryman for every
thing he could think of. The store
keeper said that he did not
resent any of the insults, but quietly went
away to q justice and swore out warrant
for the Offenders arrest.
Officer Nathans went out after Wilson,
but Wilson anticipated the groceryman's
action and he was not to be found. The
constable remained in the neighborhood
some time, and just as he was ready to leave
Wilson made his appearance, aud was
promptly arrested. He went with the officer
and gave bond for his appearance at the
city court.

The Drilling of the Artesian Wei 70 be

Contractor Joyce says that he viii put
the tools IN the new artesian well today,
and give the new derrick trial. In day

ing well under way. The roof over the
band house will be completed to-day, and
il IS expected that the drill viii be 40 work
tomorrow Mr.. Barrett, an experienced
well-digger from the oil fields Of the north,
arrived Saturday night. and win assist Mr..
Joyce, his former assistant having returned
to his home ii New York, in Door health.
Contractor Joyce was asked last night
why he appears 50 confident Of striking
heavier flow Of water, and he replied that
the formation Is almost exactly Identical
with that found at st. Augustine and Jack
sOnville. He says that he found the same
stratum of flint in Florida which the drill
has passed through here, and that the
drill is now in just such lime
rock as that met with below the
flint in the Florida wells, and beneath
which the heaviest vein was struck. He got
the heavy flow 800 b 400 feet below the first
stratum of flint, and he expects to get it here
at an approximate depth, OF he says on &C
count Of the dip he may have 10 60 100 or
200 feet deeper. but he added, ''It's down
there somewhere. 1t must be-"
The only difference between the forma-
ton here and in st. Augustine, Mr.. Joyce
says, is that the flint found in Florida was
somewhat darker than the flint taken from
the well he is now drilling, which flint is a
light brown color. IL is so extremely close
grained and hard that it cut and hattened
the "reamer," heavy steel-tipped instru-
ment for widening the diameter Of the well
after the drill has passed through.
There has been quite demand for pieces
OF this flint from visitors, since it has been
paI fhaff oil -
diamond and will cut glass, and names have
been readily written on the window pane
with pieces Of it which were brought up in
the pump.
