Beaumont, Texas. July 26.-The big
gest furry of excitement yet witnessed
in the oil field was caused about 2
o'clock yesterday afternoon by the well
of the Cattlemen's Consolidated OIL
company striking "gaser" This we'll
Is located on Spindle Top, among the
mass of derrlcks on the Hogg-Swayne
tract, and the excitement that attended
the spouing of gas, mud and rocks was
caused from the fact that there was
great danger from a fire that would
have done many thousands of dollars
worth of damage had it broken out. A
moment after the stream shot into the
air the drillers and their helpers in
that part of the field had mostly dis
appeared or were rapidly disappearing
All around the we'll, within radius
of 200 yards, there were other wells,
the derrlcks being so slose together
that in some instances a wagon could
scarcely be driven between them, and
at each of these derrlcks was a boiler
being fed by an oil jet, and If the
stream of gas had taken fire the con
sequences would have been disastrous
indeed. Fortunately, however, after the
gas had spouted for minute or two
the clear headed drlller turned the
pressure of the pumps into the we'll and
thus shut off the flow of gas
1t is thought that the blowout did
no damage to the we'll, and that work
can be resumed Immediately The
drill is believed to be within few fee.

Mr.. Armour-"The Old Mar.


From the New York Tribune.
The employees of the late Mr.. Ar
mour always referred to him as 1.-The
Old Man" This was not so much the
result of a habit among workmen of
calling their employer the old man"
himself. When he wanted to give aid
anonymously he said. That's from the
old man." Many gifts went out OF his
pocket under the signature of The
Old Man"
A young girl went to the business
office of the great packing concern one
day to report the illness of friend
who worked as stenographer in the
Office. Mr. Armour happened to stand
near and overheard the girls request
for an advance in her friends salary
with which to pay the doctors bill.
Thrusting his thumb into his vest poe
ket which seemed a mint of green
backs-he handed the girl a roll of
bills
Take that to your friend" he said.

was gone. but just as she felt the
building he again appeared, and find

street.

The girl turned back and without a
word Mr.. Armour pressed something
into her hand. She looked down-it
was $40 bill
