Farmers in Lake county in boring for
wells could profit by the experience OF
three men in Jerauld county who bored
their own artesian wells as related by a
Crow Lake correspondent thus: Last
spring Messrs Jenkins OF White Lake
and Clausen and Brady Of the north
part of Aurora county decided to sink
wells on their farms and they deposited
in the bank $3.50 each, or a total of
$3.50. They then sent to Aurora, ILL.,,
and got a machine. They each furn-
ished a team-as the machine was q
horse power-and zach furnished one
man. None OF them had any experience
and the whole business must be learned.
The horses made their living on a picket
rope, no grain being fed. and conce-
quently the days were necessarily short.
The we'll was three inches for the first
800 feet, after which it was reduced to
two inches. In 100 days the first we'll
was completed, which was located on
on the Clarence Clausen place just south
Of this place. The flow is very strong,
and the we'll is unquestionabley one
of the best two inch wells in the state.
1t Is 90 feet deep. When the we'll was
completed the machine was moved to
the Brady place and the derrick put up.
There remained in the bank SIS of the
e rof 5opcSit avary dollar ~ ovpapoa
breakage etc.-paid, the machine paid
for and not a dollar had been added to
the original deposit Of $50. The tub
ing was never driven a foot-afways
dropping by its own weight. The aver
age time spent was six hours per day.
at the present price of horses the horse
power is the cheap power. snc a two
inch we'll is large enough for any farmer
or stockgrower in the state.
There are two other two inch wells in
the Immediate vicinity-Mullen Bros,
and the Bullock well-and they are
both gushers. The former is $50 and
the latter S44 feet deep.
The Brady we'll is now down over GOO
feet the hole dropping lower every day,
and the boys have their trade we'll
learned now.
The expense Of this we'll has given our
people a well" craze, and within the
next year there will be q dozen wells
within a radius Of eight o. ten miles.

New York Central Train Derailed and
Three Killed.
SYRACUSE, N. Y, Nov. ala de-
liberate attempt was successfully made
a few miles west Of Rome to wreck
train No. 8 on the New York Central
railroad, the engine and all of the cars
on the train being ditched and COM
pletely wrecked. The engineer Of the
train, Nate Hager of Albany, and two
tramps were killed. The fireman, Chris
Wagner Of Albany. and Mail Clerks
Porter and Mccarthy were injured.
This is the second attempt within three
weeks to wreck the same train near the
same spot, which is an ideal one for the
commission Of such a crime. 1t is on a
heavy down grade and trains usually
run down it at the rate Of 65 miles an
hour. The train consisted of four mail
cars and three sleepers. There were II
postal clerks and IA passengers aboard,
besides the members of the crew. When
the crash came the engine was thrown
from the track into the ditch and

being above the earth. The forward
mail car was thrown two car lengths
ahead of the engine and rolled down
the bank. The second car, in which
the mail clerks were working, was
thrown on the tender of the engine and
badly demolished. The first one of the
sleepers was thrown from the rails,
completely rolling over. The second
car was simply turned on it's side, while
the rear sleeper did not leave the tracks
at all. Engineer Hager went down
with his engine and must have been in
stantly killed. The fireman, Chris
Wagner, was badly injured about the
head and it is feared that he was inter-
nally hurt. The two tramps who were
found dead are supposed to have been
stealing a ride on the first mail car.
John Hildreth and Frederick Bristol,
boys, have been arrested charged with
causing the wreck. Hildreth con-
fessed that he and Bristol. with Herbert
Plato and Theodore Hubbard, removed
the fish plates. No cause is given for
their act.

THE FRAZER INSURANCE CASE

Some of the Heirs said to BE in This
City.
Press dispatches from Kansas City
announce that the celebrated life insur-
ance case of Dr. G. w. Fraker. of Ex-
celsior Springs, Mo-, has been settled
out of court, the insurance companies
admitting the death OF the missing
doctor and paying $39.0iS of the Sal 900
insurance on his lie. Under the stipu-
lations of the policies this amount goes
to Mrs. c. /. Hatfield and Mrs. I. j.
Magruder OF Macon county. Mo-, and
five orphan children of an uncle Of the
doctor. 1t has been claimed all along
that these children or some of them
lived in either Oregon or Washington,
but now the statement has been made
that they live in Seattle.
II they are here they are so well Sc
cluded that the Post-Intelligencer has
not been able to find them The direc-
tory gives the name of William s.
Fraker. a laborer, and his residence as
the corner of Tenth and Norman
streets. In that neighborhood people
who have lived there four years and

heard of such a person as Fraker.

put MS body was never recovered. The
insurance companies doubted the death
ana resisted the attempts of the bene-
nciaries OF the insurance policies to
collect. Circulars were sent all over
the country. in which IL was said that
the doctor was believed to be travelling
as woman. All his peculiarities were
explained. so that a good idea of him
could be obtained. The st. Louis POST
