The pretty girl was full of sympathy for
the stricken Watkins. 1t occurred TO her,
too, that his profile was clear and hand

stirred the depths of her feminine nature.
She and her aunt came to see the invalid
every day. Once the pretty girl said she
would bring him book to read and while
away the hours, which seemed shod with
lead.

The pretty girl thought him very noble

NATURAL GAS NEAR VALLEJO.
a Discovery That Has Aroused Much Interest
in the Sonoma Town


in the Sonoma Town
VALLEJO, Jan. 10.-A discovery of natural
gas on the ranch of James Hunter three
miies from this place has created some little
excitement here. a reporter was taken out
10 the gas well this morning by Mr.. Hunter
and was thoroughly convinced that the dis
covery was no Idle tale. Five hundred yards
southeast from the farm residence is an ar
tiicial take to hold the flow of water from
warm spring used for irrigation purposes.
From the spring is bubbling up quantities of
natural gas ready for heating and lighting
purposes. A small tank inverted over the
spring IS used for its accumulation and from
gas Jet coming out at the top there burns
a large and beautiful fame sufficient to light
up or heat good sized room. Mr.. Hunter
las not att. -npted to cOnfue all the gas at
the spring, but simply enough to prove the
existence Of his valuable well. There is no
way Of estimating the product of the well
after development, and the owner intends to
give ii attention withoutdelay. Its develop
ment will be watched with interest.
