TO PREACH TO PREACHERS.
Reverend Gentleman at New York
City Whose Avowed Mission Is
the salvation of Ministers.

Inanew tent at Broadway and Fifty
sixth street, New York, across the way
from the Gospel tent, missionary has
begun services for the salvation OF
preachers" This novel crusade will be
led by Rev. j. c. Hogan, regularly or
dained preacher of the Methodist Epis-
copal church, who two years ago at
tracted the attention of the whole
country by publicly burning his de-
cree Of ordination and declaring that
thenceforth he should preach to re-
form preachers.
Mr.. Hogan does not believe in hired
preachers" and expresses his senti-
ments on this subject with a freedom
and pointedness which promise to
make his first sermon TO preachers
mighty interesting reading" for
them.
1T is impossible to imagine the
Christ of Paul" he says, ''consenting
to peach trial sermon before pull
pit committee in the hope of thereby
securing a cali from a congregation
of politicians to preach at them for
from 81 900 to $4,000 year"
Mr.. Hogan believes that preacher
should be independent of the hire Of
his congregation, and to prove his
words he has, with his brother, opened
a little temperance restaurant in
Eighth avenue.

TOWN PUMP GIVES OIL.
People of F1emingsburg, NY. now
Get Petroleum from Their
Old Well.

Excitement over the flow of oil in
the old town well at Flemingsburg,
XIV, continues undated. Thousands
of dollars have been sunk there during
the past 20 years in the endeavor TO
strike oil. numerous wells having been
drilled, but with very little success.
Now nature has taken the matter in
charge, and by some subterranean up
heaval has caused the oil 10 flow into
the large vein which has supplied the
town with water for the past 100 years.
The old well which has surprised the
people by putting forth oil instead OF
water was at one time large spring.
AS far back as can be traced the spring
was used by the Indians and early set
tiers, supplying the country for miles
around. After the streets were graded
in 1920. it was found necessary to wall
up the old spring and put in pump.
From that time on until the present
day, generation after generation of the
town people have made the old well the
main source of their water supply, but
now will have TO go elsewhere. An old
citizen remarked, when the excitement
was at its highest, that he felt as though
he had lost his dearest friend, as the
old we'll and spring had furnished water
for his family back to the fourth gen
GRAFTON.
For some time past an oily taste had
been noticed in the water, but an extra
amount of water had been pumped
from the well to supply the demand of
people whose wells had given out, ow-
ing TO the extremely dry weather, and
when most of the water had been drawn
from the reservoir. the pump began to
spout out a mixture of oil and water.
y large crowd soon collected and
vess is of every description were flied
and carried away. Large amounts
were poured on the streets and ignited,
the blaze shooting up and the oil burn
ing with white and steady glow.
Lamps and lanterns were filed and
showed white and splendid light, the
flame being strong and white. So
much excitement was caused by this
freak of nature that the people began
ppuiilS tht VII uUOut lHt StTttlS III Il
reckless manner and igniting it, and
Mayor J.. X. Nansant, fearing the build
ings would catch fire from the burning
oil. ordered the pump locked.
While the well was open barrels of the
mixture were carried away, and large
quantities flowed down the sewers.
The oil has an odor like coal oil. but is
of brownish color. The watey is as
clear as crystal. For q long time it has
been thought that oil could be found
in paying quantities, and now the peo-
pie are wild on the sub ect. Just before
the well was closed vessel was filled,
showing more than one-half pure oil.
Until the well is pumped out and a
thorough investigation made, il is i'm
possible to tell the extent of the flow
of the oil, but it is thought the supply
| is austible.-Chicago Inter Ocean.
