to go.to east Texas and locate the flow
 of oil and designate at what depth in the earth 1t is to be found. He will &C.,
 cept some of those offers to locate oil deposits or flows as soon as he finishes locating underground water supplies for number of stockmen of west Tex as, to whom he has already promised his services. He is now in Brewster
 county locating wells on the ranch of
 Judge W. Van Sickle of Alpine Judge Van Sickle is a member of the state legislature and is now in Austin. Speaking of the wonderful gifts of this l boy, he said
 That Guy Henley, this fourteen year-old boy, is possessed of an X-ray sight cannot be questioned. He has de-
 monstrated his ability to see under-
 ground streams of water, no matter
 what their depth may be, on a number
 of occasions, and the stockmen of west
 Texas have ample proof of his power
 in this line. I engaged him to go to
 Brewster county and locate two wells
 on the ranch which is owned by D. J. Combs and myself, This ranch is situ- ated in a very dry country, known as | the 'Glas Mountains.' We had made a | vain search for water on this ranch, having sunk well to a depth of six l hundred and seven feet, at a cost of | fifteen hundred dollars, without striking water. This boy has already located two wells on the ranch, one at depth of two hundred and fifty feet and the other at depth of four hundred feet, both containing an abundant supply of l pure water, and well-drilling outfits are now sinking other wells on the ranch
 with no doubt about securing water.
 There can be no longer any doubt
 about this boys wonderful power of sight, for the reason that instances are
 numerous and notorlously known where his X-ray gift, of whatever it may be called, has been proven beyond doubt.
 He comes of splendid family and has fine connections. He Is modest, hand some, blue-eyed boy, and to all out 1 ward appearances there is nothing about him to distinguish him from oth- CT boys of the same age. While loca- ting the wells in Brewster county he romped and played with other boys
 whose acquaintance he made. When
 riding horseback at night he can see streams of water underground, his sight passing right through the horse. He says that he can see the bones of the animal, but that everything else Is

THE HAPPY. HAPPY FARMERS

| The farmers aren't kicking against 1 the railroads as much as they were.
 Perhaps they are so prosperous that l they feel too comfortable to kick The Railway Age makes out that they are
 better off than the railroads are. The
 gross earnings of all the railroads in the
 fiscal year 1900, according to the h. terstate Commerce Commission, were $167, 100000 greater than in 1899, but the value of the chief crops in the same year was s247, 100000 greater than fin
 the preceding year. The farmers in-
 crease of income was the greater by as much as $S0,O0O,OOO. Cotton gave s72,- 100000 of increase; wheat, s46OOo, 1000; corn, SIPS, 900, 900; hay, $27,oOO,O ,OOO. These figures refer to gross earnings and re- the farmers are far ahead of the rail- roads. The increased prices of wheat, corn, cotton and other products were not attended by corresponding increase or by any increase practically in the cost of production, But with the rail roads it was very different. Gross earnings increased s167 900 but oper- ating expenses increased nearly s1OO,- OOO,O0O leaving the increase of net earn ings only $67,0O0,O0o. Moreover, other income than traffic earnings, according to the figures of the commission, de- creased sSS,oOO,oO0, so that the net in- come was actually s2O,ooO, ,OOo less than in 1S99
 Fortunately, neither the railroads nor the farmers are poor It is a wonder fully rich time all around, according to the figures.

Mrs. Upton in "Our Early Presidents" says that 1t was not the original inten- tion of Thomas Jefferson to inaugurate the regime of Republican simplicity without pomp and display. She adds
 "Mr. Jefferson himself, like Washing ton, was fond of horses, handsome equipages and handsome dress, despite what has been said of his Republican simplicity. He may have ridden horse- back up to the Capitol for his inaugura- tion, as goes the myth, but he meant to have a fine coach and four for the occasion-only Jacky Eppes did not get to Washington with them in season. He may sometimes have been carelessly at- tired, but often he flashed out, in con- temporaneous record, in his white coat, scarlet brooches and vest and white silk hose, fit to figure on Watteau fan"

Harrisburg. June 26-For the first
time since the election of United
States Senator Quay last January ev-
cry member of the senate was in his
seat when the senate was convened
yesterday. This was due TO the knowl-
edge that Governor Stone would send
In the recess appointments, the con-
frmation' Of which have caused con-
siderable speculation during the past
six months. AL the nominations were
confirmed, though the nomination of
Banking Commissioner Reeder was OPP
posed by Messrs Snyder and Henry.
The nomination of Secretary Hamilton
received a bare majority-35 to 9.
The nomination of Major General Mil
Ter was also seriously opposed, but 1t
also just managed to get through--35
to 10.
The most important business done at
the afternoon session of the senate
was the final passage of the general
appropriation bill. II carries more than
S15.000,000 to defray the expenses of
the executive, legislative and judicial
branches Of the state government.
The conference report on the compul.
sorry education bill was also adopted.

phans court of Allegheny county; pro-
viding for the erection OF a monument

and at Chickamauga and Chattanooga
National Military Park.
The bill appropriating $4,000 for the

Governor Joseph Ritner in the church
yard at Mount Rock, Cumberland
county. passed second reading at yes.
terday's session of the house.
The senate bill establishing a sepa-
rate orphans court in Lancaster coun.
ty passed finally.

and compute the vote for state treas
urer at the next general election. They
are Messrs. Leard. Graybill and

ing for the inspection of boats on the

ing notary public to own bank stock;
increasing the salary of judges in
counties having a population of over
$4,000.
