SUICIDE OF A MAIL CARRIER
Mysterious Death Of Frank G. RObin-
son at Ottumwa.

Ottumwa, Sept. 24.-Frank O. Rob-
an old and trusted mail car
rier of this place, mysteriously dis
appeared Saturday afternoon while
out on his mail route. Late Satur-
day evening his lifeless body was
found in the water closet of the linz
seed oil mill. 1t was clearly a case
of suicide but Robinson's best friends
are at a loss to find a motive for the
act, as the dead man was much re-
spected and is given the best of
reputation by his associates.
At 1 O'Clock Carrier Robinson
registered "out" Of the 0ttumwa
postoffice with a pouch of mail for
distribution on his route in the west
end Of the city. At 2 O'Clock he con-
versed with one of the other carriers
and at that time vas apparently in
his usual spirits and health. He did
not return to the office at 4 o'clock,
his usual time for registering "in,''
and inquiry was made at his home.
His family had not een him, sc a
searching party was made up of en-
ployes of the post office. They, too,
were unsuccessful, and the aid OF
police was invoked. After searching
for over four hours his body was
found hanging to the rafters of the
water closet of the linseed oil mill,
He had taken the strap from his mai
bag, buckled it loosely around his
throat, buckled it about the raftel
and jumped off. His pouch was
found near him, his watch was in his
clothing, together with some silver
a pocket book and other things. HI
left no note giving a reason for hi
act, and people are at a loss to de
termine a reason.

OIL WELLS.
Sam Jones Picks up Some Pointers on
PETROLEUM Production.
GREEN & BENTLEY DRUG Ca.

Hon. Sam Jones, who has just re-
turned from a visit to Ohio, is much
interested in oil wells and as the con-
ditions are much the same in Iowa,
believes oil and gas will be found
here sometime.
Wherever shale is found in any
quantity oil is likely to be found. A
porous rock 1000 to 1000 feet below
the surface will not be found empty.
Its pores will be filed, either with
salt water, oil or with gas. In the
Findley field salt the water or dead
line is 500 feet below sea level. In
some places in Indiana it is only 100
feet below sea level. To develop a
territory for gas, a person must first
find the sea level, for if salt water is
found above this there is sure to be
an absence of gas. The cost of a well
1900 feet deep runs from $4,000 to
81, 500.

FooT BALL.
Penn College Has a strong Team In
Practice-Hester for Coach.

The foot ball season is on and the
college teams are hard at work prac-
ticing for the initial games of the
season. Penn College is to the front
with a good strong team that has
been at practice for the past several
evenings and soine good and telling
work has been done.
There are a few of the old men left
of the team, but there is a lot of new
timber to select from and the college
will have the best team that it has
ever placed on the gridiron. The
team will be captained by Stribling,
whose work is known to be of the
best. Meredith will be a factor in the
makeup of the team. There is a
new center in the person of O'Brien,
and heis a good one. Rob and Noah
Williams, of Indiana, are in the field
and are good men. w. W. Lathrop
was in the team for a few weeks last
year and did some praiseworthy
work and will be a member of the
team this year. Others who are on
the campus for practice every even
ing are, Carter, of Eldora; Lindley,
of New Providence; Harry Jones and
Pickerell, of Earlham; Hawk, of
Williamsburg; Livingston; of New
Providence, and George Lewis, of
Albion, who saw service OIL the team
in 1898. Hagan and Moody are into
the game in a fine way. The coach
ing of the team will be done by ST.
mon Hester, who has been one Of
the back bones of the team for the
past several years. He is a thorough
foot ball man, an aggressive player
and a student of the game. He will
have a keen interest in the team and
will g to it that the game Of Penn
is up to the standard. The Penn
boys might have gone farther and
might have done worse in the way of
a coach.
1. H. Phillips, who was known as
"King Phillips" of the University Iof
Ohio, had been secured for the coach
of the season but he was unable to
come on account of an attact OF
typhoid fever, Mr.. Hester having
located in the city of Oskaloosa was
thought of and secured for the season
and..tho management of the team
could not have made a better Sc.
lection. Mr.. Hester has had the team
out and hard at work every evening
since the opening of school and he
has made wonderful progress with
them.
