MAINE CAPITAL
 COMING OUR WAY. Acquiring Extensive Interest In Natural Gas Field of Wes-
 tern Arkansas.

Fort Smith, March 19.-A. Zin- craft, who represents a Maine oil and gas company, has been in the city for several months se- curing leases for gas and oil de- velopment. He has worked so quietly that the extent of his op- erations did not become public until today. It develops that he has secured leases on about 2, 900 acres of Massard Prairie land and that he has wired his people to send on the drilling machinery for a complete test of the terri tory, which is part of that upon which are located the present pro- ducing wells which supply the greater portion of Fort Smith with fuel and. light.
 The leases stipulate that the prospecting company shall drill each we'll to a depth of 3, 900 feet, if oil or gas is not found at a less depth. and that the test shall be complete in every particular.

HOLMES AGAIN.
A New Series of Detective Sto- ries in the Kansas City Star.

Conan Doyle's detective sto- ries, with the marvellous Sher- lock Holmes as their hero, have achieved the greatest success of recent years. Appreciating this fact, the publisher of Golfers Weekly, New York, induced MT. Doyle to write a final series of the great detectives adventures. Repeated refusals were followed by increased inducements, and finally MT. Doyle agreed to write thirteen stories for $45, ,000, or about SC cents a word. The en- tire correspondence was by ca ble.
 The amount paid by Golfers is the largest ever paid for such work and does not include the right to publish the stories in book form. By special arrange ment with Golfers these famous stories are being printed in the Kansas City Star, one story each week, beginning in the daily edition of Saturday, February Il, and in the weekly Wednesday, February 15.
 None of the present popular features of the Star will be cut down or omitted to make room for this remarkable set of stories. Practically the contents of a $1.50 book will be added to the con- tents of the Star in three months without any increase of the sub- scription price, 10 cents a week for the daily Star, (morning, evening and Sunday, 13complete papers a week. and 25 cents a year for the weekly Star.

LETTER TO MIR. J. E. DOHER-
 TY, NEWPORT, ARK.

Dear Sir:-It's an old saying: the best advertisement is a pleas ed customer.
 It happens to us continually in this way: A man buys Devoe for his house-he has painted it once in three years for a dog's- age, and thinks he knows what he wants buys 30 gallons and has 10 left.
 He sees right off that 20 Devoe is as much as 30 of anything else. He likes that; it comes quick; it is a surprise; and he tells of it. The best advertise ment is a pleased customer.
 Three years roll round. There isn't a sign that his house needs paint: he don't paint it. Next year he don't paint it. This comes slow; it is a surprise; but he has got used to it. Still the best advertisement is a pleased customer. Yours truly,

HOW TO LOCATE, 3PRINGs.
Indians and Frontiersmen Learn From,
Signs and observations.

SiShS ana observations.
There is undoubtedly a practical
art of discovering springs. Indians
or trontiersmen can find water III
the desert where ''tenderfoot" can
not. MeXicans and experienced pros
pcctors can similarly find orc. These
arts consist mainly in the recogni-
ton of superficial signs which es-
cape the ordinary observer.
1t Is not necessary that the opera
tor should consciously note these
signs separately and reason upon
them. No doubt he frequently does
SO, though he G.nv not give away
the secret of his .nethod to others.
But in many instances he recognizes
by association and memory the pres
ence Of a group OF indications, great
or small, which he has repeatedly
found to attend springs or ore de-
posits.
This skill, due to habit, is often
almost unerrinG for a given limited
district, but under new conditions
it breaks down. Old miners from
California OF Australia have often
made in other regions the most fool
ish and hopeless attempts TO find
gold, because they thought this or
that place Cooked just like" some
other place in Shich they had mined
successfully.
Apart from the magnetic miner
ais, there is no proof that ore depos-
it's exhibit their presence and nature
by any attraction or other active
force. With regard to water, how
ever, there may be an action affect
ing the temperature and moisture of
the OVERLAPPING surface. Even here,
however, it seems more likely that
such effects are manifested visibly to
a close observer rather than by di-
rect system. The favorite fields for
water diviners are regions in which
water is abundant. but not gathered
upon given horizons of impermeable
strata underlying porous rocks
