death him who dares 10 come within
the deadly scope Of its fearful
breath.
The famous oil field present
tonight the possibility OF one Of
the dires caIamaties which ever
visited Texas, should fire join
forces with the great gusher. 1t
may be that the night will pass
safely, but tommorrow's sun will
rise and the gusher will yet be spill
ing itself upon the prairies and
flooding this country with the oil
which has made Beaumont know
in every quarter OF the globe.
The two men who are dead
tonight as a result OF their bravery
are James S. Smith and John Nc
Daniels.
james Smith died trying to shut
off the gusher and McDaniels died
trying to save Smith. Both show
ed great heroism; in fact, went the
limit Of human endurance and
passed out IN the simple discharge
Of their duty.
The common expression from
men ionight in Beaumont IS that
''Hcll has broke loose on the hill"
and The expression is significant

Ladies in Parliament.

Mr.. Clement Scott draws attention
to the fact that there are ladies' who
have the right to sit in the British
parliament. Excellent authoritieshave
assured him that those few people who
are apeerasses IN their own rightt 2 can
claim to SIT in the house of lords dur
ing any ordinary assembly Of that
house. Such ladies as the countess
OF Gromartie, the baroness Of Con-.
yers and Baroness Burdett- Coutts
might at any time appear IN person
and claim to take their seatsi in that
house. And if they can sit and vote
there, they can certainly take part
In actual debates In the house.
