SPOUTERS ARE RARE.

 Texas Oil Country.
How GuIIibIe Fortune Seekers Are Robbed by Greedy Adventur-
 erg-The Rice Fields of ! the Gulf Coast.
Especial Beaumont Crex.) Letter.l


 A NEWLY discovered oil field, like "A mining camp, attracts three
 -, classes of people: The capital ist, the business man and the adven- turer, or shark, who comes without any particular object in view, but re- lying upon his natural shrewdness to take advantage of the many who are seeking opportunities for investments. Seized with the idea that fortune awaits whoever may come, many leave good positions for an uncertainty. They may have no capital, but they have vague idea that all they have to do is to come where there is plenty of money and things are lively" It is this class that furnishes the dark side to a prosperous new oil field or min ing camp. Nor does the capitalist al- ways fare well. He is game for the shark and the adventurer. Even the most experienced are some times de- frauded by them. There are oil ex- perts as we'll as mining experts, and there is also a way of "salting" an oil we'll, or rather a we'll where there is supposed to be oil. Oil may be mixed with the water in the drill, and on these "indicat tions" "duster" may be sold to the wise capitalist for a "spouter." A story is told of shark who recently "salted" his cluster" with cotton seed oil. The capitalist knew nothing about the various kinds of oil, neither did his expert, whose knowledge was limited to few weeks work in the fields. The buyer has since been studying up on the difference between cotton seed oil and crude pe troleum. The shark drills we'll mere ly to sell, and resorts to tricks similar to those of the mining fakir. One of his tricks is to withdraw the drill, cap the we'll and maintain a mysterious silence, but throw out hint in certain directions that oil has been encoun- tered. Sometimes he sells his "duster"

on the edges by this novel method. But the wind swept everything before 1t in the center of the fire, and at last all that the men tried to do was to rescue the inmates.
 Stuart was helping some one carry a dying child out of cabin when a great blazing timber was caught up by the hurricane and flung as If by some giant hand right over the couch on which the child was lying and struck Stuart, knocking him off his feet and causing the man who was carrying the other end of the burden to stagger and fall. Stuart did not rise. At that mo- ment Dr. Saxon was coming out of the adjoining cabin. The man who had been helping Stuart rose and yelled for the doctor. He came over and picked up Stuart as if he had been little boy and carried him clear down the path to Fries cottage. The miners said afterward that Saxon's face, as 1t blazed in the light of that horrible fire, was the face of one who looked both death and hell in the countenance and defied them to steal away his beloved.
 Fries cottage was out of the line of the wind and fire that night. The doctor laid Stuart down. As he did so a woman rushed into the cottage and flung herself down by the side of the body. It was Rhena, and she
