OIL FROM THE SEA.
1t Is Pumped from the Ocean on the
California Coast.

From the Scientific American.
The early settlers in California were
familiar with indications of the exist
ence of oil which were seen at various
points along the cotst, while asphalt
UNI, which oozed up from beds at the
bottom of the sea, formed an import
ant factor in the household economy of
the aborigines, and in almost every
burial place on the coast asphaltum Is
found. The natives on the islands OBJ
tained their supply from the water, and
at the present day the rocks al various
places can be seen splashed with as
phaltum which has drifted in. This is
particularly noticeable after an east
wind, showing that there is a large
area in the deep Santa Castalina chan
mel from which asphaltum oozes up.
Oil wells We're sunk at Santa Paula
some years ago, and, later, an oil-pro-
ducing belt was discovered at Puente,
and again at Summerland, below San
ia Barbara, where a singular state Of
affirs exists.
1t soon became apparent at the latter
locality that the oil-bearing stratum
stretched out into the sea, and drill
scaffolding, looking like windmills
without sails, began in a short time to
extend down the little canyon and to
creep up the shore in the direction of
Santa Barbara. At first they kept along
the sides of the hills which breast the
sea there; but gradually they turned
seaward until one more adventurous
than the rest rose from the water.
Work was started at an extremely
low tide, and finally the tall scaffold-
ing appeared twenty or thirty feet
from the shore, rising from the sea. At
present there are three borings. which
even at low tide are in the water, but
at flood tide are completely surround
ed, the men working on platforms of
various heights, which they success
lively ascend as the sea rises.
The drills are worked in the water
from an engine on the beach, the fuel
being the oil pumped out of the sea,
but undoubtedly the entire coast over
lies an oil-producing stratum.
OFF what is known as More's wharf,
half mile out, oil rises to the surface
| in several places. A spring of fresh
water also rushes up there with such
| velocity that it can be taken UP and
| used if the slightly brackish taste is
not objected to. A similar spring is
| known to exist on the Florida coast.

moment is due to indigestion. Il

pend upon what he gets out OF

raised. The FIRE proved to be III an adjoin-

Spurious Good Nature

In one Of his novels Charles
Kingsley makes a certain charac-
ter say Of another: ellis good
nature is the fruit Of want Of
feeling" At q glance one sees
something almost contradictory
in the idea, because the rule sane
toned by everyday thinking as
sOCiateS lack Of feeling with the
opposite Of good nature. But, as
it is certain that opposite quail
ties can not spring from the same
cause, one must conclude that the
good nature alluded to is a spuri-
Gus good nature, q good nature
of smiles and pleasant words that
mean little; a good nature that
does not think deeply or love
sincerely; q good nature that
may CO-cXiSt with the most in
tense form of sclfiShnesS. There
are natures in whom this spurious
amiabillty seems to be Unborn.

have no prejudiccs to be rasped,

and too often but little principle.
The world calls them pheasant

WITH and they are often really

When this spurious good nature
IS united to undue fondness Of

ambition, the Individual becomes
power for evil, requiring but
temptation to make him a dan

a character is very clearly por-
trayed in George EtiOt'S Tito

up in the familiar line: "Ite smiles
