A WONDERFUL WELL.

Irrigation Age.
A South Dakota correspondent
OF the Age writes as follows: The
artesian well on tho Valley stock
farm continues to attract great
crowds of people. And we'll it
may, for it is really the wonder of
the age. Following the tests made
OF the pressure, the cap was re-
moved, and, through a nozzle, a
two-and-a-half inch stream of water
was shot up into the air a distance
of 125 to 40 feet. The direct
course of the stream was greatly
interfered with by the cross.beams
and braces of the derrick. With a
clear way and no wind a two-and.a-
half inch stream could be sent 100
feet in the air.
30 great Is the pressure that pine
boards six inches wide and one
inch thick, used as stays and
braces in the derrick, fifty feet
above the mouth of the we'll, were
broken by the force of the water.
While this nozzle was on, the
derrick, which is seventy-five feet
high, was almost hidden from
view by the spray and lettings Of
the stream, presenting a sight as
beautiful as it was wonderful.
Later on the evening Mr.. Weston,
manager Of the we'll, who has
charge Of the drilling, removed the
two and one-half inch nozzle and
placed upon the pipe a four inch
one. Immediately a stream four
inches in diameter shot up nearly
seventy feet, deluging everything
in its descent. This was accom-
panied by a deep roaring sound
and frequent sharp reports resem-
bling the discharge of a rifle was
heard. This stream as we'll as the
smaller one, struck the walking
beam and broke much of its force.
The amount of water that flows
from the we'll is tremendous, being
estimated at from 5000 to 10000
gallons per minute. Even at the
lowest figure enough pours out of
the we'll to furnish every man, wo.
man and child in the state of South
Dakota with at least four gallons
of water every twenty-four hours.
As to the pressure, that has not
been fully ascertained, but from
tests already made it is known to
be considerably more than 200
pounds to the square inch. With
a fair test it is likely to reach 22S
pounds. The pressure has steadily
increased for the last three days
and may exceed the above figures.
The we'll is now $50 feet deep,
and as soon as machinery now
ordered arrives the work of ream-
ing the hole to eight inches in
diameter, making it an eight inch
we'll from bottom to top, will be
prosecuted. The water is soft,
clear and pleasant to taste. It is
flooding the low places in the
vicinity, and, although great
bitches haye been dug to carry it
into the Jim river, acres of water
may be seen in every direction.
Without doubt this is the greatest
artesian well in the world.

It is said that the state board of
equalization notified the railroad
companies that they would hold a
meeting on certain date and for
them to have delegates present at
that meeting to show cause why the
assessments on railroads should
not be raised or lowered, providing
the board saw fit to do either. But
not single county commissioner
in the state was notified to be pres

Ode to the W. c. T. q.

written for the Lyndon Convention by Fred
rick l. Gibson
Nights darkness is passing, the morning is
near,
And womanis raising bright herald sphere.
Betok'ning the day by the bards sung of old,
OutviewIng in splendor the lustre of gold.
o, long the world waited the light of that sun
That should see the last fight with the drink
And long in his triumph that Devil did laugh
While to battle uncalled was mankinds bet

But now, tremble. Satan, thy kingdom must
fall.
And all the black hosts. led by Fiend Alcohol,
Be scattered like leaves in hurricane blast,
And vanish as snowfakes in mid-ocean cast.
For the Lords great reserve corps is coming
in sight,
Waving banners OF blue and pennons of white,
The sound of its marching is like the deep roar
OF a mighty food tide climbing rough rocky
shores.
IT'S an army of women, wise, loyal and brave.
Who've Joined all their forces country to
save,
Whose motto sublime for God, Home Native
Land,
inspires each with courage most grand.
In the enemies wake, they following his
track,
They of the vict'ry, they will never
turn back,
Till the necks of their foes all under their
feet,
And the captives, long bound, walk in liberty
sweet.
Not with cannon and sabre and loud rolling
drum,
But with feminine graces and beauty they
come;
With these they're all-powerfu1, a11-conquer
ing still,
And the strong fortress falls, when these
women so will.
Though modest, retiring and gentle in nlien.
If their homes are in danger, true proves is
Like the bird for its nest, they fearlessly
brave,
Not needing reproaches or pain or the grave.
Fight on, then, We soldiers, with spirit so pure,
Many souls may you rescue and great evils
cure,
And if the whole vict'ry you never won,
You yet shall receive the glad plaudit, we'll

PRESS COMMENTS.
The Prince of Wales.

To a manly nature no conspicuous
part in the world can be more CALLING
than that allotted both now and
later to the Prince of Wales. His
function is not to be that which 1t
seems to be. He will be a King
tolerated because he does not possess
royal power. As he does not chance
to have serious tastes like his father,
Prince Albert, his only earnest pur-
suit must be doing nothing, and the
conditions of his position necessarily
tempt him to be good for nothing.
If he prove to be, as the Prince of
Wales is understood to be, a good
natured saunterer living for enjoy
ment, the devout Englishman may
thank his stars. If scandals of
various kinds occasionally cloud his
career, the good Englishman may re-
.loice if they do not involve fragrant
personal disgrace. No man is SUBJ
jected to more searching ordeal of
character than the Prince of Wales.
men to be irreproachable, when it is
highly creditable for a prince. The
soul of ST. Francis was not troubled
by the assaults of the devil when he
came as demon; it was imperilled
only when he appeared as a houri.
1t is the utmost good fortune rather
than i'll fortune which endangers
character. 1t is Capua which under
mines; the sun, not the wind.-[ Har-
per's Weekly.
The Royal Gambler.
Most r1rOr1ire11t every ho6v'S
mind, so far as the conversation
everywhere indicates it, is the cruel
chance revelation that the Prince of
Wales brought his own baccarat
counters with him to Tanby Croft
and that the rule made by the mas
ter ofthe house against playing that
game under his roof was suspended
to CRAFTY his royal highness. L
doubt if anything in the princes
whole career has hurt him so much
in public estimation as this. That
the heir to the English throne, a man
who has grandchild, should ask to
have a thousand-dollar-li game
made up for him in which the major
ity of the male players were young
sters, when he knew his host had
forbidden the game on the very &C
count of these young men, seems
really too bad for even the sporting
classes to stomach. Beyond reso-
luton condemning him, passed by
the South Wales Wesleyan confer
ence, no public comment as yet has
been offered on the unpleasant part
the prince has played. The English
papers carry conservatism to the ex-
IRENE limit in abstaining from ex-
pressions of opinion while the case is
being tried but by this time next
week enough will have been said to
make up for present silence Lon

Summer visitors leave in New
Hampshire more than 100000 a
year, and Vermont might reap as
much if they would give heed to the
following advice:
Let our farmers clean up their
premises, mend their fences and give
their houses a new coat of paint
1t costs little, but conveys an air of
thrift and comfort to any visitor
Stock our streams with fine trout :;
establish large though not costly
summer hotels in convenient hooks,
with frst-class board and. accommo-
dations-no pate de fois gras or
stewed terrapin, but nice meats,
fresh eggs, milk, butter and cream.
City people appreciate such things,
and are willing to pay any reasona-
BILE sum for them, too.
Vermont, like many Of her sister
eastern states, has sent thousands
of her capital to Fort Payne, to
Kansas, and the Lord knows where.
Some of it to be sure, has paid rich
lv, but much of her hard-earned
wealth has sunk in Kansas bank
stock or melted away in southern
land bubbles If a little of this CAPT
tai were to-day expended in further
ing Vermont's beauties and attrac-
tions as a summer resort, we would
today be the receivers of an enor-
nous number of New York people
with well filled purses and wants
easily catered to, which would help
all our people in more ways than
could be calculated.-[ Ex-Postmas-

1t has been said that the reason
that so few people get what they
want in this world is that they do
not want it hard enough. There is
profound truth at the bottom of
this odd concert. Earnest striving
and perseverance are qualities. A
little struggle, and then a falling off;
a few faint efforts, and then despair

to get anything" whether it be
physical, mental or spiritual good.
But to long for thing SO strongly
that for the sake of its attainment
one can conquer obstacles, live down
opposition, ignore encouragement,
and work persistently and through
