A NATURAL Gas WELL.-AIilwaukee June

titles was struck by artesian well borers on
the Johnson Soap Co.'S property this after

The pressure was 30 strong as to force the
tools gying from the hole.
The well has been lightel and burns
fercely. The gas is perfectly odorless, and
has the ether qualities of the Pennsylvania ia
gas. Great excitement was caused by the
discovery, and adjacent property is boom

orksd Off scarcely ..token" an hour|
think hear you say, "what has thiX
got to do with Gaffney City Male and Fe-
male Seminary Commencement 2" Well, it
does look as though considerable metap
sical circumlocution would be necessary to
bring the two points together but il seems
to US that, dating back as you d o, in some
sense you may be considered as one of the
foster-fathers OF all our institut ions Of
learning, for under the stimulating power
OF the press, as one of the eleme nts in
volved, educational Institutions, one by one,
have arisen, which are gradually reaching
the masses Of the people, rearing grander
structure of christian civilization, throw
ing around IL more massive bulwarks Of
strength, and erecting Il palladium Of our
social system which shall effectually guard
1t from infraction and decay.
As such, and as presiding over colum ns
whose readers largely patronise the institu-
tion named, no doubt something in counec-
tion Herewith will be welcome 10 you.
Gafney City Is fast becoming an educa-
tion centre Of ne insignificant proportions.
A centre, too, in which mental culture is
not stilted above heart culture, but in
which the one is the properly adjusted col
lateral equipoiss of the other, the two COM
bininS to construct the only true manhood
and womanhoed. TO this grand work
dvnney City Male and Female Seminary is
allied, with two other institutions here.
This institution has just passed through
another most successful commencement
exercises which marked its growth and
progress, both in number and in advanced
scholarship and literary grade. Founded
In 1917, at first little more than what has
been known as the old field school. it has
grown, by earnest, persistent, faithful work,
grade upon grade, without endowments,
joint stock companies, direct church or de-
nominational support, unto its present pro-
portions, with its more than hundred stu
dents, its imposing Seminary building Of
brick, its spacious class rooms aud thorough
southt for imparting instructions; with its
corps OF Professors and teachers, male aud

Mr.. Reed In Montana.

lfrom the Butte Inter-Mountain, Sep. 24.l
Two Of the most interesting, best attended
ana enthusiastic meetings ever held on the
big hill, were held last evening in honor Of a
man of national reputation, Hon. Thomas b.
Reed Of Maine. The night was exceedingly
disagreeable and a mixed snow and rain
began to fall about o'clock and continued
until late. The eagerness OF the boys 10
the fact that Jones' hall was crowded by, the
miners of Walkervile and vicinity, long
before the hour at which the speaker was
announced. MIR. Reed was accompanied to
Walkerville by prominent local politicians,
among who were noticed w. FL. Dewitt, Lou
Holland, Lee Mantle, w. o. Speer, Col. r. K,
Dolmap, A. Fred Wey, Chas. w. HanScomD
and Hon. E. N. HARDWOOD of Billings, candl-
date for associate justice OF the supreme
selection and Supt w. E. Hall, OF the Alice,
who was chairman of the meeting, in
troduced w, o. Spear. Mr. Spear said that
he would under the circumstances not
attempt to make speech. but merely discuss
the local issues for few moments.
Mr.. Hall then made a few remarks in
regard to the freedom of the ballot guar
anteed by the Australian system. and in
troduced in an eulogistie manner Hon.
Thomas b. Reed of Malice, who was re-
ceived with applause.
Edtorially the Inter Mountain has this to
say:
Inc ihanks OF the republicans of this
country and OF good many democrats are
due to Hon. Thomas B. Reed for his master
~ presentation Of Republican doctrines last
night at Centerville and Walkerville. It is
easy TO understand now why Mr.. Reed is the
leader Of the republicans in the house of
representatives and why no democrat on the
other side ever engages him in debate with

the Miner to ridicule the gentleman this
morning is miserably thin and is the best
evidence that his arguments are unanswer-

When the Hon. John L. Sullivan of Boston
announced some time ago that he thought he
would make good Congressman, the public
was somewhat In doubt as to whether Mr..
Sullivan was jesting or in earnest. Later
developments seem to show that he was In
dead earnest, and that he is really at work
laying plans to succeed the Hon. j. II. Nc
Neill. He has placed himself in the hands
of his friends, and his friends are alrt ady
making preparations to present his name to
the voters. The greatest drawback to Mr..
Sulliyan's candidacy will be the difficulty of
keeping him sober. Simple incbriety on his
part would not do him much harm, but when
John gets intoxicated he is belligerent and
does not very clearly distinguish between
friend and foe. A stumping tour through
his district when in that condition would be
likely to ALLEVIATE large number of his con-
stituents,

Judge Love, of the Federal court of Iowa,
has decided that a railroad cannot suspend
the operation of non paying line. The
question came before him on the petition of
the receiver of the Wabash road to discon-
tinue the Clarinda branch on the ground that
the receipts were not sufficient TO pay ex-
penses. Judge Love refused to make the
order, declaring that railroads are govern
mental institutions. public conyeyances and
common carriers. The right to build road
through private property was granted on the
representation that the road would furnish
transportation for the public aud the people
are dependent upon such road for transpor-
tation. Courts have no right to deprive peo-
pie of this transportation OF the showing
that the road does not pay expenses. By OBJ
tanning the right Of way from the people they
were cut off from all similar means of trans
portation and the court has no means Of
knowing what damage to merchants would
ensue from the granting of this order.

The WORST OF ALL DISEASES
IS CONSUMPTION,

as so few recover from it, and the friends suffer
more mentally than the patient does physically,
as the changes from better to worse are so
frequent in many cases occurring tevery few
hours. This disease, all recognise, comes from
rant Of nutrition, and few realize that nutrition
can be furnished by artificial food free from in
soluble matter, and In raw state, as Is found in
the Murdock's Liquid Food. We illustrate in the
case Of Mr.. VIM. Goodman, being one of many
cases that have been restored to health. We
quote from his letter OF Aug. 10, 1889, German
town, Philadelphia:
81 was so reduced In health by consumption,
having suffered for years from 1t. that my wife
and friends anticipated my death daily, when

my daily life. 1t is perfectly amazing, the benefit

The Hon. George William Curtiss address
before the Civil Service Reform Association
yesterday consisted almost entirely of an
attack on President Harrison's administra-
ton for what Mr.. Curtis considers failure
to fulfill its civil service reform pledges.
The vlgor of this attack is in marked con-
trast to the tenderness of Mr.. Curtis's criti.
cism of Mr.. Cleveland's administrator,
which very recklessly violated its reform
pledges to the Mugwumps.

The st. John Telegraph has come to the
sensible conclusion that st. John is not IA
vorably situated to command the grain trade
of Canada, even if facilities for handling
grain were provided. 1t says: 1.-The great
er part Of the cattle and grain shipped across
the Atlantic from Canada take water at
Montreal during the open season Of naviga-
ton. When the ST. Lawrence is closed such
grain and cattle shipments as are made have
tendency to 20 to Portland ON account Of
the shorter railway distance to that port than
10 ST. John from Montreal, while the ocean
voyage Is about the same in both cases."
The st. John Sun, however, still dreams of
making ST. John the winter port of the Can
adas and cutting out Portland. But IL will
never be anything but ream. 1t is use
less to fight against nature.
