TWO WATERS FROM ONE WELL
A Freak of Nature That Is Enjoyed
by the People of Lyons,
Mississippi.

A well that furnishes two separa te
and distinct kinds of drinking water
from the one opening is a freak Of
nature which the town of Lyons, Miss,
few miles south of Memphis, is now
enjoying. says the Chicago Inter Gee n.
One stream is said by experts to flow
from an underground current having
it's source in Lake Michigan, while the
other is identified by taste, odor and
chemical analysis with the waters Of
Waukesha springs. The we'll goes to a
depth of 975 feet, and was sunk by
Albert Goldsberry, of Memphis. The
two streams emerge from pipes of diff
ferent lengths, the one which taps the
Lake Michigan stratum having the
greater depth. Lyons is situated in
part of the country where good drink
ing water in all seasons is difficult to
obtain, and recently when Memphis
parties proposed to sink an artesian
well the suggestion was secuted by the
residents of the town. The discovery
of the two streams, one a pure. clear,
soft freestone, and the other strong,
sweet, chalybeate iron water, is q
source of wonder to the natives. Both
streams gush above the surface, the
freestone to a height of 35 feet and the
chalybeate 81 feet.

AUTOS AND HONEYMOONS.
french People Are Now Considerinr
Motor Equipment for We'd
ding Journeys.

Sleeping cars on railways have been
brought to great pitch of perfec-
ton, and it now appears that inventors
are turning their attention to auto
mobiles, which are to be so adapted
that they may be used by night as we'll
as day. The idea is that by a little
arrangement of the framing nd mech
anism quit a snug little bedroom
may be made of an automobile, and
there are those who think that the
new form will be much in demand,
especially for folk who like novel
honeymoons, says the Paris Mes sem
ger.
One would have thought that the
rattle and the throb and the smell
which one tolerates by day would be
gladly dispensed with by night, but
men with the motor mania say: mo.
We are only at the beginning yet. We
are going to sleep in them, eat in them,
drink in them-in fact, practically live
in them"
AS multum in parvo of living
things, Noah's ark will be outdis-
tanced by these enthusiasts of the
modern means of locomotion. The
turn of the railways is even predicted
by some people, and as for horses,
well! the Society for Prevention of
Cruelty is trembling, for their task is
nearly done; there won't be any horses
to practice the refinements of cruelty
upon.

it is known at biograph headquarters
that fierce fire and series of explo-

is estimated at 300.
The camera operator and his assist
ants receive word; there is a scamper
for fire badges, and two minutes later
the biograph outfit, which takes 1000
pictures a minute, is handed into the
emergency wagon, which has been
waiting all day for just such a call.
The city manager arrives on the

police sergeants for favorable posi-
ton for the picture-taking appara tus.
The camera is set up on its tripod, the

WlLL-ylSlT The ALMA SUGAR
FACTORY.

~. -. s.stnt':'s.s
Committee of Representative Citizen:
will Visit the Alma Factory ,oh the
Invitation of The Times. ~
The TINES believes that now Is the
time If ever for Owosso to make an ef
fort to secure beet sugar factory
With the idea of placing the matter
more clearly before the minds of the
business men and farmers of this city
and vicinity, it has arranged with the
following well known citizens to visit
Alma at some date next week, learn
what they can of the factory. the means
necessary to secure factory for this
locality, its needs in the wayo location,
water supply, etc, ETC., and give the
facts to the citizens Of Owosso and Shia'
wassee county through the columns OF
The Owosso TIMES. The gentlemen
who have accepted the invitation of this
paper to look up the matter are /. H.
Keller, Stanley E. Parkill, Jas. IA. Law
crock, of this city, A. B. Cook. of Maple
River; and r. F. kay, of Woodruff,
county treasurer. From the list, of
names it can be easily seen that every
side of the business will have repre-
sentative who can appreciate the re-
quirements of the business and the ad-
vantages to other lines of business. as
well as the difficulties which must be
overcome if Owosso shall get one of the
factories for this vicinity. The names
of the gentlemen mentioned above are
moreover sufficient guarantee that not
only will the good features of the bust
ness which make it desirable in
dustry to secure for this city be men.
toned but also that the drawbacks, If
there are any serious ones, will be
pointed out. The difficulties in the
way of Owosso's getting factory
will not be overlooked.
The TIMES believes that the Difficult.
ties are not so great that with deter
mined effort on the part of even few
of the influential citizens of this vi
cinity, backed by the proper support of
the farmers of the county, the factory
cannot be secured, and it believes as it
has repeatedly said before that there is
nothing which will do more to make
the farmers and business men alike of
this vicinity enjoy the greatest period
of prosperity which they have ever ex-
perienced than this very thing At all
events the report which these gentle
me will bring back with them will be
we'll worth the reading. &c

The Drinking of Birds.

There is no anatomical reason why
all birds should not drink by pro-
longed immersion of the bill, suppos-
ing sufficient water to be present. A
great many birds, however, depend
for their liquid nutriment upon the
drops of rain or dew which cling to
heritage or foliage, and in this case
it is obvious that alternate slipping
and raising of the head is the only
mode of drinking available.

The Closing Year.

q The following poem, by Angus M. Berr
aged II which won the gold badge of t
st. Nicholas League, is printed In
Nicholas for November:
Flash along the western sky
Summer tints that fade ard die.
Forests mantled once in green
Now in red and gold are seen.
Here the streamlet sparkling flows;
There the aster brightly blows;
And the goldenrod in glory
Tells the same, the wondrous story
Summers done.
Blow, We prairie breezes blow!
Summers come, and summers go;
Hearts are sad, and hearts are gay;
Here Is night. and there is day.
So farewell to summer dear;
There will come another year
And the goldenrod in glory
Then as now shall tell the story
Summers done.
