1t was revolution in Thresh-

1858 they soon reached a pro-

Their Vibrator drove the End

it as closely as they dared. To-

principles of the old Vibrator.

In the northern part of this state lives
an old farmer, honest and upright m
business matters, but notorious for the
incredible stories of his own prowess,
which he relates upon every occasion. A
short time since, in company with few
personal friends who thoroughly under

ton of a thrilling Indian story, which
was alleged to have taken place while
crossing the plains in 1851.

In conversation yesterday with gen.
tleman who has had large experience in
natural gas and oil drilling, he said: "I
am beginning to think it safe to drill
for gas at almost any point. You can
not tell where it may be found. 1t will
make its way through the porous Tren-
ton rock, or through rock crevices and
there is no telling where it may. Look
at the recent discoveries at Newark,
Lancaster. Marietta and other places,
undoubtedly hundreds of miles from
the place of its origin. l do not think
they are as certain to get good wells far
away from the oil field, but gas may be
found in almost any section of the
country. At least, it is liable to be
there. 1t is wonderful thing to find its
way through the rock and it will only
stop going where it is cut off entirely
by non porous rock or other use."-

VINcENNEs, Ind, March 30.-For several
months petty robberies have been occurring
in this city almost nightly, during which
time stores and dwellings were burglarized
in such an artful manner that the police were
bewildered and could find no clew as to the
perpetrators.
Suspicion pointed to Thomas Hoffman as
one of the thieves, and Thursday without
warrant or information, Deputy Marshal
Hahn arrested him. A search of Hoffman's
house disclosed trunks full of dry goods,
clothing, cutlery, ETC., valued at $780,
Among his other effects were found sand
bags and burglars tools of every description.
Hoffman is thought to have had many ac-
completes, and the police expect to bag some
of them before long. The goods recovered
were identified as belonging to Heberd &

Exchange: At this season Of the
year there is more or less planting or
re-planting of trees and if this, rule is
strictly followed there is no loss in set
ting out trees. DO not be afraid to dig
the hole large enough to admit all the
roots in their natural position and deep
enough to set in twice the depth it was
originally. Put in rich earth over the
roots and put in two or three gallons of
water, raise the tree slightly several
times, flll the hole half full of earth and
leave the space for water to run on the
roots, instead of making a hill to run
the water away. If very dry give them a
bucket'o of water and your trees will live
and do we'll.

JACKSON KING OF UJAR.
A Maine Man Who Met With Many
Thrilling Adventures.

Bath, Me-, Special to the NetO York World.
BY the death of Richard w. jackson,
sailor boy, king Of cannibal tribe and arc
tic explorer, the most romantic career ever
lived by Maine man has just come to a
ssingularly unhappy end. jackson was
born in Bath, and during his early boyhood
was noted for his daring in athletic sports
and the many narrow escapes he had. Sew
eraI times in his boyhood and in his ma
turer years he saved people from drowning
Once when in his teens he fell from a hay
NOV and was taken up for dead. Another
time he was struck by lightning and re-
manned paralyzed for twenty-four hours.
In 1888 he shipped on the Rainier with
Capt. Morrison, and was wrecked on the
coral rect near Ujae, in the south Pacific.
In the little Schooner of $50 tons, built on
the canibal isle from the timbers of the
wrecked ship, the captain, accompanied by
Jackson as first officer, left to obtain suita-
BILE provisions with which to return to the
island, where the captains sick daughter
and her husband were left to await them
On the second day out the captain was
stricken with paralysis AMI jackson was
given command and naviga ed the vessel
to Jaluit, one of the isles of the Marshall
group, where provisions were obtained
from white cutthroats, who held the schoon-
or for security.
After many perlious adventures Jackson
arrived alone at Uj&e with relief for those
left behind, only to find letter from Capt.
Morrison announcing the arrival Of a
United States war ship and the rescue of
himself and party. This letter Jackson
read to tle king of Ujae as stating that the
king must treat jackson we'll or the war
ship would return ID "bom- bonn Qbom-
ard the is and. Jackson's wit saved mis-
life. for the king, who was anxious to go to
an adjacent lsla d for some savage Iesti-
val, made our Bath boy temporary sing of
the island. For thirty days, Jackson, king
OF Ujae, held his lonely court on the island
beach, guarding his provisions and
hoping all would come. A crew of
white wreckers arrived, aud to them
Jackson sold for about $500 the rest of the
cargo md wreck, and with them returned
to Jaluit, whence he worked his way to
Frisco, where he delivered his hard-earned
$500 to the owners agent aud was rewarded
with SIS for his endeavors. After being
washed overheard in rounding Cape Horn
he for two years sailed to the northern seas
and was noted for his featS of daring. Then
he became a steamboat man, rose to be
third officer of the City of Picking, one Of
largest steamers afoat, and was steadily
mounting up when he was knocked down
by a runaway horse, while ashore on a va
cation, and killed He was only 80 years
old,
