RETURN OF COL. FLEEING.
His Oil Operations in the Cherokee
 Nation.

C-l. James A. Fleming returned to the city yesterday morning after an ab- senCe Of more than five months. Col Fleming is now extensively engaged iu the oil business which. by the way. is the one in which he first embarked as a young man and in which he made a fortune in the oil fields Of Pennsyl- Vania. When he left here in June he met d lot of his old friends in Kausas City. They were on their way t- the fields in southern Kansas and the In dian Territory, and persuaded him. to join them in the journey.
 When he got there he found th.s sit nation: The oil fields in southern Kan sas were undoubtedly rich. but those in the Nation were richer. They lay within the lands of the Cheerol,ees oI tine east and the adjoining Osages ea the west. The latter had been allowed to dispose of their land and nearly all of it was taken for q distance or forty miles north and south. Already a. great deal Of work had been done. More than 200 flowing wells were iu operation, fir m 70 to lCJ barrel wells. 4 1C0 barrel well by the way. is worth $50, ,0C0 of anybody's money. Tn au this distance there were only three dry wells. oil men mad never heard of such q proportion.
 About that time Col. Fleming dis covered that a ruling applying tc the Cherokees had just been made by the department They had not been allow ed to sell or lease any of the land which had been allotted to them; each had under the allotment 1GO acres But there were more .1G0 acre tracts in the reservation than there were In- dians SO that for purposes Of sale or lease each Indian was allowed f-rty acres more. This new allotment was represented by scrip which the holder might locate on any land not already taken.
 Another thing favored Col Fleming at this junctura. His sCn, Porter Fieu- ing. had graduated from the Ann Ar Der law school and among his class mates were three Indian boys who had now settled in practice in the territory. They were seen and they furnished in formation as to. the best way of ob- taining and locating this scrip
 Altogether he obtained by purchase or lease 800 acres scattered along the north and south line separating the Osagas frcm the Cherokees. He has made arrangement for the sinking of wells and he says that bis whole ex- penditure for the land and machinery necessary to make at least one produc- ing well will not exceed $1O,GCO. His property is worth S2O0 600.
 It is agreed by oil experts that this whole field is the most promising ever dfscovefed and gives promise cf long lie. That promise is based on the depth of the sand, which ranges from

ATTORNEY GENERAL KIBBEY.
His Appointment Yesterday to Suc-
 Ceed Judge Wells.

Governor Erodie yesterday appointed Judge Joseph Fl. Kibbey attorney gen eral. to succeed Judge F. w. Wells, whose resignation had been submitted the day before. Judge Wells found that while the duties of the office were not very onerous for the most of the year. at times they made it impossible fer him to give the time necessary to his own extensive private business. This is particularly SO during legislative sessions when the constant presence Of the attorney general is almost abso- lutoly necessary. There are also ire quent calls upon him at times of i'm portant board meetings at the ;capi- tai so that it often bee mes necessary for Judge Wells to leave his home and business at Prescott when he could i'll afford to do SO. His inten- ton to resign was preciHitated by the near approach of the legislative ses- sion.
 The selection by the governor or Judge Kibbey to fill the vacancy is a recognition or his legal ability and judgment as an adviser. Like Judge Wells he is an old resident of the ter ritcry. a former member of the su- p~eme bench of the territory and ia miliar with territorial conditions. He will enter uDcn his duties at once.

GASTON.
Gastonia Gazette, January 1: The
friends in Gastonia Of Mr.. Press Hud-
dleston will learn with regret Of the
death of his wife which occurred on
Christmas day at Gainesville, Ca, to
which place they recently moved from
Atlanta for her health. Mr.. Huddle-
ston is a native Of CASTOR and has for
several years been identified with At
lanta papers. Mrs. Huddleston made
many friends while here on visit
several years ago and the sympathy OF
all who knew them Is with the sorrow
ing husband. While trying to catch
the northbound c. & NV. passenger
train as it left the station Wednesday
morning, Master Charlie Gray, son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. G. A. Gray, fell under the
wheels and narrowly escaped serious
injury. The accident occurred near
the c. & N.-Ws. water tank and but
for the timely assistance Of Mr.. G. F.
McLaughen, who happened to be
standing near, his injuries would pro-
bably have been mucn more serious.
Mr.. McLaughen jerked him from the
track; as he did so the wheels crushed
two toes on his right foot. He was
taken to his home where the wound
was dress by Drs. Bunting and Wilson.
Although painfully bruised 1t was
found unnecessary to amputate any OF
the toes. 8. Fifty or more young peo-
pie enjoyed a party given Wednesday
night by Misses Eula and Maggie
Spencer at the home Of Mr.. Caleb A.
Spencer, west of town. Games were
played and the occasion was a pleas
ant one to all present.

Shattered His Theory.

In the days when board schools were
young a visit was paid to one of those
schools by a local dignitary who hao
theories in the subject Of Scripture les
sons. He requested the head master
to pick out a particularly dull boy ano
let him ask that lad a few questions
Whereupon the following dialogue en-
sued:
Now, my boy what do you under
stand by miracle?"
Boy, looking helplessly at visitor
makes no answer.
Visitor (triumphantly to head mas
ter)-"You see, It's as I've always
maintained Scripture must be ex'
planned and illustrated If any compre'
hension Of its meaning is to penetrate
this sort of skull. He can't tell me
what a miracle Is. Now. hear me make
him understand"
Headmaster (with sarcastic increo'
ulity)-"If you do sir. you'll nave
wrought a miracle yourself. 1 haven
a duller boy in the school. If youo
question some Of the others
yisitor-"No, no; I'll show you wha'
can do with this one by using COM
mon sense methods. Now, my boy
nay attention to me. You don't kno"
what q miracle is, eh?"
Boy confesses it by his silence.
"Now, listen to me! Suppose you
got I'D in the middle Of the night and
saw the sun shining, what should you
say it was?"
Boy (promptly)-"I should say it was
the moon"
Visitor OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES you
couldn't, you know, If you saw 1t was
the sun" >,
Boy (doggedly)-"I should see 1t
wasn't"
Visitor recovering from a discon-
certed pause)-"But suppose some one
told you that it was the SUM-
Boy (emphatically)-"1 should say
he was liar"
Visitor (angry at such persistent STU
pidity)-"But suppose I told you that
1t was really the sun. You wouidn
dare to tell me that I was liar
would you?"
Boy hesitates a moment; then In ac-
cents Of conviction, Il should say you
was VERY drunk. -Tit-Bits.

THE SCHOOL OF EXPERIENCE
Daughter. you ought not to wear
those high heeled shoes. They will
make corns on your feet"
How do YOU know mamma?"
BY experience. I used to wear them
when I was a girl"
Did grandma tell you they would
make corns on your feet if you wore
them?"
YES"
How did she know"
"She found out by experience just
as did"
Hadn't she any mamma to warn
her against wearing them?"
"Oh, yes"
But she wore them just the same?"
ITO be sure"
And you did too?"
Yes. That is what was telling
you."
Well If I ever have any daughters
I ought to be able to give them a warn
ing against high heeled shoes from my
own experience, oughtn't I?"-Chicago

AN Acc.pENr.-It was in the time OF
wild raspberries and the Blank family
was spending few weeks In the coun-
try, says the Woman's Home Compan-
ion. Harold Blank, aged six. and his
two little sisters had been out In the
woods and when they returned, Harold
presented his mother with two very
moist and slightly crushed wild rasp-
berries. She thanked him with the ef-
fusion that mothers show on such oc-
casions and said. when she had swal-
lowed the berries, "They were lovely
I wish I had more Of them"
II did have another one for you
mamma, but I swallowed it on acci-
dent on the way home" said Harold.
why, Harold, dear, how could you
have swallowed it on accident?" asked
his mother.
We'll, it was like this, mamma,
Harold explained, Il was afraid Lucy
and Alice would try to get the berries
away from me If they knew had them
so I carried them home in my mouth,
and that was how I swallowed one on
accident"

HAND POWER BUGGY.
New Invention That May Compete
With tho Automobile.

New Invention That May Compete
With tho Automobile.
A motorless auto-buggy. propelled by
means Of hand-wheels, may soon be a
familiar feature Of street traffic, If the
hopes Of J. H. Blackburne Of Liberty
DeKalb county, are realized. That
they will be realized Mr.. Blackburne Is
confident and the fact that on Satur-
day he received from the United States
patent office letters patent on his in
vention, have made him very sanguine.
Mr.. Blackburne on Monday exhibited
the patent to an American reporter,
and showed detailed drawings Of the
invention, which he believes is des-
tined to succeed the automobile as that
machine has succeeded the horse
drawn vehicle.
Briefly described, the invention Is an
ordinary buggy with the exception that
the rear axle and wheels revolve to-
gether; the axle Is ball-bearing. 1t Is
connected with system Of gearings
for every turn Of q hand wheel, which
rises from the buggy bottom In front
Of the passenger. revolves the larger
rear wheels sixteen times. From this
1t can easily be figured that as one
revolution of a four-inch wheel carries
vehicle a little over eleven feet, one
turn Of the power wheel turning the
rear wheel sixteen times, will carry the
vehicle something like 1T feet. Thir-
ty revolutions Of the power wheel
would therefore carry the vehicle a
mile. One turn Of the wheel every
four seconds would mean speed OF
thirty miles an hour, and Mr.. Black
burne asserts that child can turn
the wheel with ease and secure as
great a speed as grown man. In fact,
Mr.. Blackburne further asserts that a
one fourth model Of his invention was
required by the patent office before is
suing a patent, and that his grandson,
twelve years old, operated the minia-
ture vehicle on the streets Of Washing
ton, creating a sensation by the speed
attained.
Colonel Blackburne states tnat pug
gies equipped with the invention can
be built and placed on the market to
sell for 500 to s125 each, and he Is
confident that it will not be long until
the streets of Nashville are crowded
with his invention. He states that the
model he will have ready in two weeks
will be capable Of attaining speed
of mile minute, and he asserts that
as a test he will ride in the machine
over any turnpike. preferring those
with the steepest grades in order to
show the hill-climbing ability Of the
machine. He states that he can make
the trip from Nashville to Lebanon
and return in less than two hours, the
distance being about twenty miles
each way.-Nashville American.

How THEY ARE ELHcTED-"A few
days ago." said E. C. Tooke Of Phila-
delphia, according to the Washington
Post, II happened to be present when
an Italian who was applying for nat
uralization papers. was being examined
as to his knowledge Of the constitution
ETC., Of the adopted country.
Who Is the president of the United
States?" was the first query.
TEDDY said Mr.. Dago. with cheer
full promptitude.
How Is the president elected?"
by a large machonly."
How are the United States senators
elected?"
The son Of Italy appeared some
what confused at this last query and l
thought he was going to fall down, but
after a moments hesitation a bright
smile illuminated his swarthy face, and
he answered in tone Of triumph
"zay have to put upa de mon."

FORTUNATE ACCIDENT.
Resulted in the Discovery Of tho Now
Element Radium.

The investigations that resulted In
detection Of Becquerel rays began soon
after the discovery Of the x-rays. and
were intimately connected with 1t. In
the early days of Roentgen rays. there
were many. facts which suggested that
phosphorescence had something to do
with the production of these rays.
Prof. Henry Becqusrel Of the Uni
versity of Paris. undertook experiments
to test this supposition as early as
1896. only few months after X-rays
had been discovered. Among the sub
stances used in these experiments was
one containing the metal uranium.
This was placed upon Photographic
plate. which had first been wrapped In
black paper In order to protect 1t from
the light. After the plate had stood
in bright sunlight for several hours, 1t
was removed from Its paper covering
and developed. A slight trace OF pho
tographic action was found at those
parts Of the plate directly beneath the
uranium. just as Becquerel had e1-
pected. 1t was clear that rays Of
some kind were being produced that
were capable Of passing through black
paper.
Then came the fortunate accident.
After several plates had been prepared
for exposure to sunlight q storm came
up. and the experiments had to be
postponed for several days. When the
work was resumed the plates had been
lying In the dark room so long that
they might easily have deteriorated IN
some way, so that 1t seemed hardly
safe to use them. But, instead OF SIM
ply throwing the plates away Becque-
rel fortunately developed them, think
ing that some action might possibly
have taken place in the dark. The re-
suit was that he obtained better pic
lures than ever before. The exposure
to sunlight, which had been regarded
as essential to the success OF the for
mer experiments, had really had moth
ing to do with the matter. The es-
sential thing was the presence of ura-
mum; and the Photographic effects
were not due to X-rays, but to Bee
querel rays. There were many long
and difficult steps to take before even
our present incomplete knowledge Of
the subject could be reached: but this
fortunate accident was the beginning
Of long series Of experiments which
have already led to the discovery Of
the new element radium, and which
bid fair to revolutionize some Of the
most fundamental conceptions Of ply
sizes and chemistry.-New York Com
