ed by than one example of that
everyday heroism which ennobles
common humanity. But of all the
brave deeds there done that of an office
boy was perhaps the most notable
He was stunned by a blow on the
head from a flying fragment, but re-
gaining consciousness, was about to es-
cape from the horrors surrounding
him, when the %despairing cries of the
oflice-girls reached his ears.
To attempt their rescue might entail
death upon himself, but unmoved by
such considerations, the brave lad de-
termined to save them. Cropping his way
toward them amid the dense smoke, the
binding dust and the stiling fumes of
burning chemicals, and with flames
rapidly surrounding him. he reached
the imprisoned girls, three in number,
and ~half-leading, half-dragging them.
reached the street in safety.
Cut, bruised md bleeding, he dis
claimed all thanks and quietly disap-
peared-perhaps to quiet the apprehen-
sicns of a loving mother. Surely, the
making of Il true a is in that boy.

and potash. The last two are readily
obtainable Mt small expense, whereas
the first may be supplied either by
furnishing to the soil condensed nitro

nitrate of soda, or by planting clover.
beans or peas, which have an affinity
for nitrogen and absorb it from the at,
mosphere.
1t is now known that nitrogen is the
most important plant food, and mas.

! is merely to absorb it into the soil. II
! has also come to be understood thai
only two per cent of the material OF
plants is derived from the soil, the re.

He Yielded.

1t was once usual for Highland
shepherds to take their dogs into
church and leave them outside the
pews. Two shepherds Mt enmity sat on
opposite sides of the aisle one Sunday,
and 500 after the sermon began, the
%dogs-one a collie and the other not
seemed to enter into their masters
quarrel. The shepherds egged on their
dogs in u%ndertones. and soon there was
a real fight in progress. Most of those
in the immediate neighborhood craned
their necks over the pews to see how
the encounter was coming out, and NOT
q few were standing up. The min
ister's patience was ultimately ex-
hausted. and so he called to his hear

OIL FIELDS OF THE WEST.
Source Of Petroleum Deposits One Of Ma
ture's Secrets.

ture's Secrets.
An II Paso dispatch reports the
discovery of an oil field IN the neigh
borhood Of Deming, n. Mex. Good
prospects have also been found IN
some parts Of Arizona. The value Of
these deposits will depend largely up
on their extent and the volume Of the
yield. But the numerous discoveries
Of petroleum measures which are be-
ing made in the western states and
territories these days indicate that
however much may be the poverty of
the west in the matter of coal, it is
well supplied with a good and cheap
substitute for the upbuilding of its
industries. Much depends, Of course,
uponthe durability Of these oil meas
ures. There may be a limitation to
the yield, just as there is to a vein Of
coal, and time reached when the oil
reservoirs will be exhausted. In some
districts in the Pennsylvania oil fields
this has happened, and it has been as
sumed by some that the same fate
awaits all other oil measures which
have been pierced. Still, for what
anyone knows to the contrary, the la
boratory of nature may be renewing
the supply ofpetroleum as fast as man
draws it from the earth where it is
stored.
One of the secrets of nature which
science has not yet been able to dis
close is the source Of petroleum de-
posts. Theories and opinions Of the
closest students are numerous and
varied. Some have assumed that Pc
tToleum is secretion of a nicroscop-,
ical insect in the sandstone forma-
ton; but, If so, the industrious little
animal has thus far escaped detection.
A later theory is that petroleum is de-
eayed marine vegetation, and is thus
allied to coal. The Texas oil fields
have been found to be resting on vast
beds Of sulphur, and, inasmuch as
most mineral oils have sulphur base,
it may be that this mineral is the.
mother of OIL as quartz is popularly
assumed to be the mother of gold.
Until we know more, however, about
the genesis of petroleum than we do
at present our knowledge Of the dura-
ton Of the supply must remain purely
speculative. What interests the vest
more particularly now is that the oil
fields already opened promise to pro-
vide a supply Of cheap fuel for some
generations to come, even though ma
ture should fail to renew it. San
Francisco Chronicle.
