PEPPERY AT PIERRE.
Brilliant Cratory on the Dog Tax
Question.

Brilliant Cratofy on the log lax
Question.
Special to the Globe
PIERRE, S. D., Feb. 21.-Considerable
artesian well discussion was had III
both branches of the legislature to-day,
one measure being to establish an eX-
perimeEtal artesian well station Oh
Huron's famous school section, while
another was to authorize civil town
ships to sink wells for public purposes,
issuing bonds therefor. A bill to
abolish the Office of state engineer of
irrigation failed to pass for the rea
son that so many members were
excused it did not receive a c0nSttu-
tional majority i'll the house. The dog
tax bill, which has formed bone of con-
tentlon in every legislature i'll the his
tory OF the territory and state. was the
means of bringing out the most tlOWery
Oratory in the house, but, as usual, it
was consigned to the waste basket. No
bills became laws to-day, the authors
being afraid to call measures up for
fear that they would fail on
account of the limited number in
sent to the senate from the house will
be reported Tuesday. Resubmissonsts
claim it will pass, and prohibition will
become dead letter. Senator Kyle re-
turned this evening, and will make inn
mediate arrangements to proceed to
Washington to take his seat The
longer people know him the better sat
istied they are he will prove an honor to
the state and return good service dur
ing the next SIX years with clean-cut
record in the end.

the sad reality and the significance of

crowded streets and decorations of
mourning. From Grand avenue the

the west entrance to Calvary cemetery.
There were fewer residences on Floris-

number Of spectators was noticeable.

when all that was mortal of Gen. Sher-
man was lowered to its last resting
place. The casIlet was draped with
flags and was bare of any floral tributes.
The services were of the simplest char
acter, and were conducted by Rev.
Thomas Sherman, all assembled at the
grave standing with uncovered heads.
AS the caSket was being lowered the
regimental band played Plyale's hymn.
During the services, which were the
regular ones of the Catholic church,
Father Sherman sprinkled the casket
with holy water, thus consecrating both
the body and the grave. Father Sher-
man read the Catholic service, one of
the selections being II am the resurrec-
ton and the lite." offered fervent
prayer and the services were at all end.
AS the services progressed many about
the grave were vlsibly affected. and
when the flags surrounding the casket
were removed the sound of low sobbing
was heard. At o'clock the closing of
the grave was completed, and the
buglers of the Seventh cavalry sounded
"Taps-lights out"
Volleys were fired over the grave by
the Thirteenth infantry, Immediately
followed by three salvos by the artillery
which was stationed some distance to
the east. Wreaths and branches of
eyergreens were then placed upon the
grave by loving hands. The funeral
party and the troops returned to the
station and the many thousands of
citizens who were present dispersed to
their homes.
Thus was laid to rest by the side of
his wife and his two sons, one of whom
was his soldier boy" Gen. William
Tanumcob Sherman Many affaatiDO
scenes were witnessed as the division
with the caiSSon moved along the line
Of march. AT one point on Grand
avenue, an old colored man with a
grand army badge on his breast'went
down on his knees by the side of the
road as the caisSOn approached, and with
tears streaming down his furrowed
cheeks, raised his hands over his head
in the attitude of prayer. Hundreds Of
people ShOWered punches of roses, viO-
lets and other flowers upon the gun
carriage as it passed. At the corner of
Washington and Grand avenues num-
Der of Grand Army veterans reveren-
TALLY uncovered their heads and said
good bye'' as the casket passed out of
sight.
Many of the old Thirteenth survivors
who surrounded the caisSon were in
tears from the beginning of the journey
until the gates of the cemetery were
reached. 1t was one of the greatest
testimonials of the regard i'll which the
departed warrior was held by the people
of the land that could be given. The
procession was two hours and fifty min
utes in passing given point, and the
head had nearly reached the cemetery
gates when the rear guard was falling
into line.

OIL AND GAS.
How Well is Drilled Thousands
OBJECT in Depth.

Indiana Farmer.
When gas or oil well is located the
first step is to built over it derrick,
which is frame from sixty to ninety
feet high, built of 3x8 timber in the
form of square pyramid. In this is
erected walking BEAM or horizontal
rocking shaft, pivoted in the middle
tWentysiX- feet long, one end of which
is connected to the crank shaft of the
engine, to the other is suspended the
drill" or boring tool.
The drill "bit" consists of steel
chlsel blade, obtuse but sharp, about s
inches wide, with shaft about inches
IN diameter, about feet long, weigh
ing about $50 pounds. The lower or
cutting part is of steel. the shaft is of
iron. The ''stem" is Of iron rod of the
which it is screwed, and is SO feet long,
and weighs over 1000 pounds.
In the upper end of the stem is ring
by which the whole is suspended by a
2A-inch MANILA rope. The drill is raised
about feet for a stroke, the weight
being $500 pounds, and let fall on the
rocks beneath. The number of strikes
average about 45 per minute.
The hole is inches in diameter at
the start and the drill chops its way
down as far as possible -sometimes
from 100 to 200 feet; when water or
sand prevents further progress by cav
ing. it is necessary to case the hole with
sections of iron tubing. having an inside
diameter of 55S inches, which are
screwed together and driven down to
the bottom to the hole.
Then a smaller drill, fitting the inside
of the casing, is again set to work as
long as possible. When again obliged
to stop the casing is withdrawn and a
''reamer" or widening tool is put down
and the lower portion of the hole is en-
larged to inches. Then the casing is
again put down to the bottom. In this
way the work progresses until the de-
sired depth is reached.
The drill is made with horizontal
notches throughout the entire length,
as it often happens that the bit of stem
breaks while in the hole. In such cases
grab hook" is slipped over the end
of the broken piece, and in this way re-
covered.
The sand pump" which is used to
clean the sand and pulveriZed rock from
the hole, is simply tube twenty feet
long and five inches in diameter, the
valve being an iron or copper ball four
ard one-half inches in diameter. This
tube is let down, and when filled IS
drawn out. The sand pump is used
about every five feet, and a sample
of the rock cut is put in bottles, num-
bered and labeled with number of feet
and character of rock.

4 Young Man Allowed to Die
Without Medical Aid.
DIES MONIES, To-. Feb. 21.-Much in
terst has been felt here in the inquest
over William Protzman, who died I'M
der Christian science treatment. The
coroner's investigation lasted four days.
To-day verdict was returned. 1t was
found that Protzman was twentyf0ur
years old. had good health and rugged
constitution until Dec. II last when he
was attacked by cold which grew into
typhoid fever. The testimony showed
that he received no medical treatment,
except ''silent prayer" that's all.
The "that's alp diet rules were diSre-
garded, and that he was otherwise neg
lected. The conclusion of the jury is
that PrOtzman
Game to his death by reason of having
practices upon him the teachings of an asso-
citation of persons calling themselves Chris
tian Scientists. and from no other cause.
The jury further says that, in their
opinion, PrOtZman would have lived had
proper treatment been given him. 1t is
expected that important arrests will
be made soon.

His Sensational Experience.
Special to the Globe.
FERGUS FAILS, Mimi, Feb. 2l.-A.
B. Erickson, the secretary of the Min
nesota Live Stock Insurance company,
who was so badly bulldozed by lrate
farmers at Ada on Friday last, returned
to Fergus Falls to-day. Concerning the
proceedings, Mr.. Erickson says:
I'VE had learned that they had jury,
officers and all dead against us, and we
were very glad to settle. Was | fright
ened? Yes, to some extent. They
meant business, but we were prepared
for them and would have shot somebody
if necessary. But anybody would be
frightened with mob of wild NorWe-
gIanS bowling for his blood and calling
him all sorts Of bad names. We finally
agreed to release them from liability to
the company.in consideration Of getting
releases from them of several losses
which have occurred in that county and
have not yet been paid. These losses
amount to more than their assessments,
so the company can well afford to be
satisfied, but l wouldn't go UP there
again for $500. 1t was too hot q place
for me. think the company will take
further action in the matter IN spite of
the settlement, which was, to a certain
extent. forced. We still hold all our
legal rights, and propose to hold the
Norman county men to account for
every cent of balance due"

A DISMAL FAILURE.
WatertoWn Business Men De
nounce Prohibition.

Special to the Globe.
WATERFOWL, S. D., Feb. 2l.-A petit
ton was circulated here to-day praying
the state senate TO pass the bill result
hitting the question of prohibition, and
was signed by representatives of nearly
every business house in the city. A
very large majority Of business men in
WatertoWn are emphatic in denouncing
the present law on that subject as Il
huge farce, and it is not overdrawn to
say that as much liquor is consumed
here now as under the license system.
The express companies have nearly
doubled their business by the present
traffic, and many who voted dry year
ago last fall have concluded that pro-
hibtion is a dismal failure. If the bill
passes the senate and the privilege of
voting comes up at the next general
election this city aud county will give
three-quarter vote against prohibition.
The sentiment of the citizens of Water
town is decidedly against the present
law in that it is not the success that was
promised, and also from a financial
standpoint.
