Ants Bore Artesian We'll.

Savannah, Ga, Sept. PA
queer artesian we'll story comes
from Millen on the Central Rail-
road. Near the depot in that town
and within about fifty feet of one
OF it's artesian wells is large col
ony Of big red ants, which the
proyerbial oldest inhabitant de-
elares has existed there for fifty
years to his certain knowledge,
and perhaps longer 1t is said to
be characteristic of these ants that
they will dig and keep on digging
until they strike water.
The other day the people of the
town were astonished at seeing
stream of artesian water seven feet
high coming out of a new place.
investigation proved it to be from
the ant-hole. The ants, it appears,
miscalculated and dug until they
struck one of the artesian wells
The water broke through the pas
sage made by the ants and is pour
ing out of their former home. Il
is said the artesian well dug by
the ants has greatly diminished
the flow from the five other wells
of the town.
