Eatur.,l Gas at YIMas

Last Saturday evening Councilman
 Willis and some others, who were
 standing on the railway bridge near
 the California side, discovered some
 bubbling pools of water in the mud
 near the rivers edge, and in order to
 satisfy excited emiosity, Mr. Willis and
 our neighbOr Devine descended to the
 aforesaid bubbling pools to examine
 the cause of the phenomina. It didn't
 take long for these scientific gentle
 men to make up their minds that
 natural-gas was escaping from Mother
 earth in great quantities. Matches
 wer9 lighted and held near the bubbles that formed on the water and the Councilman and Deacon declared that
 those bubbles actually ignited and that another wonderfully important re source of the Colorado valley bad been discovered. Billy Marvin, our county recorder, announced the find at the breakfast table next morning. Some believed and some didn't. Attorney Robertson admitted thao there was 6 perfectly natural flow of gas at that particular table, especially when the three Captains were taking politics or spinning sea tales, but Billy finally succeeded in making all believe in his sincerity and promised to prove his statements. So after breakfast small party of gentlemen were seen to cross to the California side and go prospect ing for gas. But Billy couldn't even make match burn and so the party l came ack no wiser than first.
 By this lime Frank Doan and the Skeptical attorney had made up their minds that there was gas there, and l determined to investigate further They armed themselves with a pinkle bottle, a piece of tin and plenty of matches and went prospecting again.
 They succeeded in bottling Cor it least they thought so) some of it, but It wouldn't burn. They told the Dea- con of their failure. The Deacon swore by his calling that he could go over there and build fire out of gas big enough and hot enough to keep the town warm all winter. The boys defed him and he set to work to prove it, but after wading around through l the mud for an hour and half and spelling his Sunday shine he admitted that he couldn't make a flicker.
 Aswe % to press the cause of the is still unsolved, but we think, and offer as the correct theory, that the cause may be found in the disc imposition of vegetable matter that may be buried in the mud Of the river bottom.
 Mir. Willis will make still further and if possiblelearn the true cause and in our next issue we hope to be able to give the result of his experiments. If his experiments should demonstrate that his first i'm pressIons were correct and that we have goodly supply of eliminating gas right at our door, the editor of this paper proposes to go on Fourth of July celebratioD-Sabe!
