Special to Times-Republican.
Auburn, Ia, Sept. "A. II. Jenkins,
a we'll borer who has been doing a
considerable amount of work in this
part of the country, encountered a
strange phenomenon while boring wells
west of this place this week. He
states that after he has bored into the
ground 100 feet strong draft Of wind
can be felt plainly arising from the
pipe which extends into the well. Ii
the wind is In q certain direction the
draft will suck inwards and Is strong
enough to drag felt hat to the en-
trance of the pipe. If the wind changes
the hat will be blown away sometimes
several feet into the air. He reports
that he has had the same experience
with all the wells he has bored In this
vicinity. The only explanation that
he offered for the strange underground
current is that there may be caves
near by and there Is considerable lime
rock in the strata at the place where
the wells have been bored. Then there
may be long ago abandoned water
passage which connects with some
FLYER or stream nearby from which
poin. the action Of the river water
rushing past would cause the suction
and sudden filling of the opening would
cause the object at the end of the
newly opened hole to be blown away.
