A Wonderful Ohio Well.
From the ST. Louis Globe Democrat


BELLAIRE, o., May 23.-There is much
excitement in this section over a wonderful
well on Pawpaw creek, near Salem, u wis
lage on the Cleveland and Marietta rail-
road, fifteen miles south of Summerfeld,
Noble county. A we'll was drilled to the
depth of 400 feet about nineteen years ago.
Oil or gas not being found, it was aban-
doned. Several Years later water and gas
commenced coming from the hole in great
force, which threw the tubing out. That
gave it a chance and it washed out a large
cavity. forty feet in diameter. Six or
seven years ago it ceased to flow. Jacob
Martz, about two years ago. filled tho hole
with logs, stone and earth, aud built large
barn on stone pillars, one Of which stood III
the center of the cavity.
Recently gas burst up alongside the pillar
with report like that OF thunder, a large
flow of oil and water followed, and before
half an hour passed around the pillar began
to sink and was soon out of sight. In
twenty-eight hours basin, some thlrty-tive
feet in diameter and no one can tell how
deep, was formed aud was filled with water,
which is constantly in motion. aud the
earth for several feet around 1t also moves
I'D and down. 1t is believed that the we'll is
an outlet for a subterranean sea of oil, gas
and salt water, as it is in the Maxburg oil
and gas fields. Thousands of people visited
II and are afraid to make an Investigation.
The oil, when separated from the gas and
water, is Of first-clnss quality. The roar of
escaping gas and the underground rumbling
can be heard for miles,

Very Little Interest Taken In Them

Vary Little Interest Taken In Them
so Far.
There has apparently been very little in
,erest taken In the mass meetings to
.elact members Of the democratic
o-scutive committee of the county to be
80 in the various districts tomorrow
u;,bt The politicians have spent very
Lille time in discussing the subject since
che announcement of the meetings was
made. and the voters generally seem to
have tabooed politics altogether since the
recent mass meeting
The entire interest seemed 70 center In
CLEVELAND and Hill.
II was thought that there might be some
sght between the two wings Of the party
- caDture the committee at the mass meet
~ Friday night, but there does not seem
N he any indication of this.
AZ the committee will not have to pass
mon either Mr.. Cleveland or Mr.. Hill it is
dificult to see what weight this should have
in selecting committeeman.
There is a slight awakening on the sub
iect of the mass meetings, however, as the
nine draws near and it is believed that
there will be a sufficiently large meeting in
each district to select a representative COM
nittee.
Those of the members Of the present COM
Ynittee who have been active in their serv-
ice to the party will probably be reelected.
To save trouble in the selection of the
committeeman at large it has been sug-
eested that a ticket composed OF five good
man be agreed on, to be named at each of the
district meetings, and thus save confusion
which would result by each meeting voting
q separate set of names Just now while
the military are having their meetings,
some enthusiastic military men propose a
military ticket, composed about as
follows; Col. Gordon, Col. Mercer, Col.
Reilly, Maj SchwarL, and Capt Brooks
This might be taking too many men from
the First regiment. The name Of Maj.
Schwarz or Capt. Brooks, neither one OF
whom cares anything about the office,
could be taken off and the name of Capt
Tom Screven of the Guards substituted.
All the military men would vote this ticket,
and as there are several hundred military
men in the CITY they would have no diff
Guilty in carrying it.
One OF the young politicians said yester-
day that he did not think there would be
any effort to capture the districts on the
part Of any faction. but thai each district
would be allowed to run its own meeting as
il saw fit. There would be no danger, he
thought, Of an objectionable committee
being selected If the mass meetings were
well attended. Each district, he thought,
would take pride in putting forward its
most representative men.

THE LIBRARY BOYS WIN.
They Punish the Harmons to tn,
Tune Of 5 to 1.

They Punish the Harmons to the
Tune Of Is to 1.
About 800 base ball enthusiasts went out
to the south end Of the city yesterday after
noon to see the Harmon club do battle with
the C. L. AS. The game was one-sided,
owing principally to the fact that the Har-
mons have not yet got accustomed to play
ing together. The G. l.. A s put up their
usual winning game, batting hard, fielding
sharply and taking every chance to steal a
base.
The game was interesting up to the be-
ginning Of the eighth inning, when the Lii
brary boys fell on to Brown and fairly wore
the trademark off the ball. When the
carnival ended the Librarys had run the
score up to fifteen runs.
The Harmons hir Sullivan eight times
safely, but were ineffective in scoring as
they seemed unable to hit when hits were
worst needed. Quinley scored the only run
in the first through an error of John Sulli-
van. the Only error made by the C. L. AS
during the game.
The out-heldipg of O'Byrne and Nc ugh.
the Unfolding of Curtis and O'Connor with
Harigans catching and John Sullivan's
hitting were features of the game. The
Harmons' out-tield captured everything in
good shape.
The Harmon team is not yet in good
shape, but when 1t gets it work more system
atized it will make the Librarys hustle
harder than they have had to heretofore.

BIRMINGHAM, May 20.-Coalburg, a ham.
let living eight miles southeast Of this city,
reports a curious shower a few nights since.
Toward evening the village seemed covered
with dense cloud, so black as to threaten
a storm, but it was TO be seen that there was
neither wind nor heavy rain. This cloud
continued to hover above the town until
nearly II o'clock that night, when it began
TO shower lightly, and something in the
sound Of the rain striking the people as
strange. they went out to see what was falls

covered with what was at first taken
to be snakes, which caused great
alarm. until several Of the creatures were
caught by more inquisitive or courageous
spirits, when it was seen that they were
Young cells. The largest seen were nearly
a foot in length, but the majority or them
were only few inches.
Old fishermen of the vicinity declare that
the cells were of species not 20 found in this
country except on the southern Pacific
coast. though plentiful ia Mexico and Gem
tral America IL appeared that there were
none of the creatures to be found more than
a few hundred feet beyond the limits OF the
hamlet. but witnesses declare that even
within that limited circuit there must have
fallen millions Of them The people have
been much annoyed since by the heaps OF
dead cells. which render the town almost
uninhabitable, but the farmers are using
them as q fertilizer.

What 1t Ought to Belfast Months
Record.
The real summer season began Yesterday.
According to the calculations of the weather
bureau, based upon observations covering
twenty-five years, at Savannah, the pres
ent months temperature ought to average
about 79o. The hottest June known in
Savannah was that Of 1881, with
an everage Of S2.7e. The COOLEST June was
that OF 1884, with an average of 1885,. The
highest temperature during any June was
lOOS, on the 18th, in 1880. The lowest tenn
perature during any June was 50s, on the
LIST, in 1899.
The average rainfall for the month for
twenty-five years is 675 inches. The aver
age number OF days with .0l of an inch or
more is Is. The greatest monthly rainfall
Is 1879 inches in 1876 The least is 81
inches in 1881. The greatest amount Of
rain recorded in any twenty-four consecus
tive hours is g. 10 inches, June 1927, 1887.
1t remains to be seen how near the pres
ent June will come to the average.
The temperature last month was exactly
the average Of what IL has been during
May for twenty-five years, 7S'. The rain
fall was little more than half an inch be-
low the average, which for twenty-five
years during May was 2.S4 inches The
total last month was 2.17 inches
The highest temperature was 81, last FRI

A NICE SNAKE STORY.
It Contains all the Ear Marks OF O
Truthful Narrative.
From the ST. Louis Globe Democrat.

Truthful Narrative.
From the st. Louis Globe Democrat.
II once knew an old unreconstructed
of rattlesnakes that were trained to play
Dixie with their ratties to his intense edi-
fcation, said Col. J. s. Evans of Meridian,
Mics, at the Laclede. THE man belonged
to my regiment during the war, and he had
a rattlesnake that followed him all through
the Louisiana campaign like faithful dog.
He didn't join the army until near the close
OF the trouble, ard he brought his snake
with him. When the reptile got tired on
the march her master would coil her around
his neck and trudged along with bis pet
until camp was struck. At night he put
the snake in a circle formed with hair
rope, so as to keep her from crawling
around to the dread of the other soldiers.
During battle that snake would dart in
and out between the ranks of the fighting
men until she found her master, when she
would stick her tail straight into the air
and rattle off the first few bars of Dixie,
with pronounced distinotness and the most
ecstatio delight. Her master, had, of course,
taught her TO do 1t. After the war he took
his snake back TO the Arkausa farm, and
in little while her progeny was wonderful.
When l went to see him fifteen years ago
his barnyard was given over to rattlesnaSes,
and on signal from him, by ringing bell,
the reptiles would dash to the center of the
yard, and the clang of Dixie that the swift
movements of their tails produced was as
deafening as it was inspiring.
II haven't told this story before because
it sounds preposterous; but am willing to
make affidavit TO its truth. MY friends
farm lies in what is known as Laconia
circle, on the west side of the river, OPP

and his widow and children have rid the

CHRIsTIANIA May 13.-The national sub
scription toward cefraying the cost OF
building and manning the Norwegian vi
king ship, which it is proposed to send to
the Columbian exposition. will be opened
throughout the country en- Tuesday next
and will be closed on the last day of the
month. AS already announced, it is iu-
tended to sail the vessel TO America. The
project is, however. regarded as hazardous,
Notwithstanding that committee Of eleven
experienced ship CAPTAINS, to whom @
question OF the feasibility of the idea was
submitted, have declared that 1t is quite
capable of execution. The crew will be
strictly LIMITED to the number of men requi
site to navigate the vessel across the ATTAIN
tic though the full equipment will be made
up with Norwegians on the ships arrival at
Chicago, Not less than thirty rowers will
be required o man the ship for the voyage,
and many applications for these posts have
already been received. 1t is intended, how
ever, as far as posi- bic to accept the serv-
ices Of none bat educated men, who may
be able to take part in the com piIstion Of
an account OF the voyage, which is to be
published Immediately after the vessels ar
rival in America, and also TO assist in the
necessary correspondence in regard to the
journey.
Another literary project In connection
with the interesting experiment IS the issue
OF pamphlet on the Norwegian viking
ship and the discovery, in A. d. 1000 by
the Viking Left the Fortunate, of Vinland,
the chief settlement OF the ancient Morse
men in America. a territory comprising the
present states of Massachusetts and Rhede
Island. 1t is interesting to note that this
discovery is also referred to in the appeal
for subscriptions. whore the proposed viking
ship Is described as q memorial of the days
in which Left Ericsson was the first Euro
pean to set his foot on American soil q.
With patriotic emulation the appeal fur
Their announces that if the ship. as is to be
hoped. is exhibited at Chicago, near the
famous caravels in which Columbus made
his discovery, the Norwegian heg will bear
witness to the intrepidity Of Morse seamen,
both in the days of old aud at the present
time. The pamphlet on the viking ship
will also contain a brief account of the
Norway Of to-day. 1t will be published
both in Europe and America immediately
after the ship starts on its adventurous voy-
age. 1t is hoped that, besides defraying
the cost OF building and manning the YES
sci, the proceeds of the national subscrip-
tion aud of the sales Of the two books mems
toned above will leave a surplus, which
will be devoted to home for aged Norwe.
