SEEK AND FIND.

"All the world abounds in love.
II ye seek it as you may
Ye shall find that from above
Earth is flooded every day
Not mid sordid. mean desires.
Not In lust that leads to crime:
These exlIale from british fires.
Cursing man til end OF time
I'ut amid the pure and true
Souls may find undying streams,
trimming full, where TO the view
Gods great lovefn glory CLEANS
Seek ye there and yc shall find
Comfort FOR a wearied soul,
Health and healing for the, mind,
While the years do ceaseless roll.
Love is fraugnt with JOY ana peace
When the heart of self is void;
Love can bring a sweet surcease
From great grief or rest destroyed.
Love instills a blessed hope
Of immortal life ut last;
Woes Of earth may never cope.
With success 'gainst powers SO vast.
Trav'llrs to that distant bourne
From which none may come this
way. ~
Listen and precept learn.
God is love. love God to-day!
And that land where all Is love
Thy blest home in joy shall be,
There Gods face DER all above.

ANOTHER BIG GUSHER.
TWO WELLS WITH AN AGGREGATE CAPACITY OF
100000 BARRELS A DAY.

TWO WELLS WITH AN AGGREGATE CAPACITY OF
100000 BARRELS A DAY.
Beaumont, Jan. 3. 1902 (SpeciaD.-The Texas Oil
and Pipe Line Company has just brought in
other gusher fully equal its 100000 barrels a day
gusher brought in about two months ago, which
then the greatest oil well In the world. Gusher
No has a Pinch pipe down 200 and an s-inch
pipe all the way TO the oil sand, and this enormous
capacity is thus secured, most the wells have
much smaller pipe. These two wells located a
different points in the gusher field about feet
apart, and, with aggregate capacity Of 100000
barrels day, guarantee unlimited supply Of OIL
and demonstrate the fact that the Texas oil field is
practically ineXhaustibe. The enormous production
of these wells be appreciated when it is re-
membered that the entire output of all the oil wells
IN the world last year only 100000 barrels
a day, amount just equal to the capacity of
these two wells.
The company which brought in these two big
wells is rapidly maturing its plans for marketing
this immense oil production, and has chartered the
tank steamer Major Barrett" which will make
regular trips between Port Arthur and New-York
delivering oil on large contracts which have been
secured This will be the first tank steamer TO
reach Northern ports loaded with Texas oil for
actual consumption fuel, and marks impor-
step in the development of this industry.
The enormous production OF the wells and the high
fuel value of the oil make IL practically certain
that IL will reVolutionize the fuel question the

AGREEMENT WITH NICARAGUA.
'FEATUREs OF THE PROTOCOL SIGNED AT
MANAGUA.

Washington, Jan 3.-Some Of the main feat
tIres Of the protocol between the United States
and Nicaragua referred to in President Zelaya' s
message to his Congress have been made known
in recent press dispatches from Managua, but
there are many other important features which
have not yet been disclosed of these being
the complete American jurisdiction and the es-
Establishment OF American courts. civil and Grim
Isnal, throughout a zone six miles wide and ex-
tending from ocean to ocean, and including the
proposed termini. Greytown on the Atlantic.
and Brito on the Pacific. The entire policing Of
this large tract also is placed in the hands Of
the United States. so that it has the power to
preserve order and after that to issue judicial
processes extending throughout this zone.
Besides the authority of American courts and
of the American police in the six-mile zone. the
chief features of the protocol are in giving a
lease in perpetuity of this tract TO the United
States and at the same time giving an Ameri-

sereignty and integrity OF Nicaragua shall not
he disturbed by the rights thus conferred on the
United States.
No exact information is obtainable as to the
price specified IN the protocol as payment TO
Nicaragua for the grant TO this country 1t can
be said positively, however, that this price is
much less than was expected when the negota-
tions began, and that IL is considered by Of
'ficials as reasonable. 1t is understood that at
the outset the view in Nicaragua was that So
100000 would be a proper figure for the grant
TO this country and about S5OOOOOO for Costa
Rica's grant. But while there is no informa-
tion as to the final sum in the protocol. 1t is
known to be far short of the above figures. AS
the cession takes the form of a perpetual lease,
il is probable that the protocol includes the
feature Of an annual rental as part payment.
A protocol with Costa Rica Identical in form
with that with Nicaragua, except in the matter
of price and territory leased, has been In course

DEFINITE PANAMA OFFER.

value to this country of the French property at

his methods and definite in his propositions the

refuses to discuss the matter in detail, 1t IS
evident from his manner that he and his asso-
ciates considerably rritated by the popular
misconstruction that has been put upon their
last report. The average person in and out or
Congress seems TO think that the Walker COM
mission has denounced the Panama route as i'm
practicable and, therefore, unworthy of conSid-
Grafton by this country The commission, the
contrary, has made careful and painstakng
comparison of both routes after the most eX-
haustiVe engineering and personal investigation

projected and close study of its last report re
veals the interesting. but apparently little
known. fact that in some essentials the PanaIna
route is more highly commended by these Of
hcers of the United States than is that of Mic

COMMISSION SAID TO FAVOR PANAMA.
Admiral Walker who has been all over both
routes seems more favorably impressed with
the Panama than with the Nicaragua route. He
believes the natural harbor facilities at both
ends of the Panama route are vastly superior to
those at either terminus Of the Nicaragua route,
and he regards OF no small advantage in fa-
vor Of the Panama route that the tide action,
poILCuldIly Oh the IaClliC sue ol tue dhttlll'1
route, is more favorab bic to canal construction
and maintenance than can be asserted OF this
physical feature Of the NiCara qua route. He
says the Panama Canal could be completed by
the United States for about S143,000,O0O. Add
to this the $40 100000 which would he paid to
the French shareholders for their property, and
a $ a matter of economy there would be actual
saving of S6.OO0,000 in construction, compared
with the estimate of $1S9,0000 600 for the Mica
ragua Canal. A feature of great weight with
those who have closely studied the question is
that the estimated cost Of the Nicaragua Canal
at the figures stated IS probably many millions
below what that work would cost the govern
snent before its completion.
