Remarkable Win in Germany Carried Out
by tho Government.
La Porte, Ind, has several citizens
who are beneficiaries of a remarka BILE
will made in Germany over 100 years
ago. A wealthy man named Federman
bequenthed all his property in trust to
the government, the interest to be dis
tributed among his descendants by .
sort of lottery scheme.
All the descendants, down to the re-
motest generation, are requested to
send in their names with proof of their
beirship. These names are put into q
box duly sealed and guarded. and in
July of each year IL names are drawn.
Barney" Kramer's wife is one of the
descendants, and two of his children
have drawn over 800 each in this novel
inheritance. Mrs. Isaac Kramer Is one
OF the heirs, as Federman was an uncle
OF her mother, but she has never drawn
anything. There are several other de.
scendants OF Federman in La Porte, but
none but the Kramer children has been
fortunate enough to get on the list.
The first intimation the Kramer chill
drcn had of their good fortune was a
letter containing draft for the money
drawn.

drid correspondent of the London Stand
ard, to whom the world is much In
debted for news of Spanish govern
mental doings, gives a most interesting
account of the strain to which the gov
eminent is subjected on behalf OF rs
Cuban campaign. Tho war minister,
Gen. Azcarraga, has displayed great en-
ergy in providing troops. but he has
been forced to resort to some extrao--
binary measures. At the outbreak OF
the war he called in some 1900 men o!
the first-class reserve, and men OF the
classes of 1894 and 1895, and even some
of the class of 1898, who, after few
months of training, had been dismissed
10 their homes in order TO lessen army
expenses. Then he called for $1,000
conscripts of 1895 some months before
the usual time. These were boys Of Jess

OIL WELL IN OCEAN. F.,
Vesseimea Make q Strange Din,
covery In San Francisco Bay.
Certain Patch OF Water That Durins
Calm Weather Ii Always Covered
with . Thick Coating Of
Coal OIL

A flowing oil well has been discov.
cred at the bottom of San Francisco
bay. 1t is located about 500 yards &c
the south of Goat island, in deep water,
and directly in the path of the ferry
steamers at slack water.
1t was on last Tuesday that Capt
Jones made the discovery that has
aroused the curiosity of shipping men
The bay was smooth and the atmos-
phere clear and bright. The Piedmont
was steaming along at full speed when
tine captain spied an oily-loos<ing patch
of water directly ahead. The pherom-
enon was 50 uncommon that he called
the mates attention to it, and after OBJ
serving it as the steamer piowed
through concluded that q barrel Of oil
had been dumped there by a passing
vessel.
The matter had almost escaped
Capt. Jones' memory when, at the next
slack water, as he crossed the same spot
identically the same Phenomenon was
observed. only in more pronounced
form. The water within radius of 50
yards or more was covered with glisten-
ing oil, and when the attention of some
persons ON the lower deck was called to
II they were willing to assert that they
could detect strong odor Of coal oil.
After that Capt. Jones and his mate
took particular pains TO observe the
phenomenon at every slack water. The
oil always appeared in the same spot.
and at times seemed to be very thick
upon the surface of the bay. The OBJ
servers even thought they could de-
tect a movement about the center Of
the pool, as If the oil was being forced
up from below by some subterranean
force.
Capt. Jones called the attention OF
several other ferryboat masters to the
"oil PATCH" and they have concurred
with him in the belief that there is q
natural oil spring at the bottom Of the
bay. The ebb and flow of the tide and
the wash of the waves scatter the oil,
but when conditions are favorable
slack water and 10 wind-the "oil
spot" is always visible.
Mariners familiar with the coast as-
sert that the Santa Barbara channel,
which is always selected as the speed
way for war vessels on their trial trips,
IS faster" than any other bit of smooth
water on the coast because there are
numerous oil springs at the bottom.
It is a standing joke on the water front
now that ferryboats may expect to
make better than schedule time be.
cause of the oil springs at the bottom of
San Francisco bay.
