3ELFRY HALF MILE AWAY.
(From the Sunday Strand)

1t is generally supposed that the vii.
lage church of East Bereholt, Suffolk,
is the only one in England which pos
sesses an entirely distinct building for its
belfry. The bells of this church ara
hung in a shed many yards away from
the church, and are worked from above
instead of from beneath.
The church of Warmsworth, however.
a village situated about two miles from
Doncaster, can boast of belfry which
is about half a mile away from tho
church, As the crow flies the distance
between church and belfry. which IS
known as the bell tower, IS 1850 feet.
the distance by road being about half a
mile,
The belfry is by no means a makeshift
building. The tower in fact, IS said 90
date back to the 18th century and the
reason II its isolation form a rather
curious story The church was originally
built on its present site to accommodate
the villagers of both Warmsworth and
Baby, the latter village being half a mile
from the former
The tower was then placed IN Warns
worth In order that the parishioners
might hear the bell. which stops ringing
a quarter OF an hour before the service
IN order to enable the bell ringer to get to
church in time.

TIME TO WAKE FROM IT'S VAN
WINKLE SLEEP.
SIDEWALK IS DANGEROUS
Not Keeping Up to the Onward
March of Progress of the
Growing City.

The general opinion prevails that
it is time for the Katy TO wake from
its Rip Van Winkle sleep. Last
night a pedestrian suffered severe
bruises as a result of a fall on the
delapidated sidewalk lat 1.-The Katy
crossing on Main street. 1t is quite
a common experience and the army
of injured is raising a protest.
The Katy crossing is what is sup
posed to be a sidewalk; that is it was
a sidewalk. Frequent rains have
washed it, and travel has changed it
until a new crossing is needed badly,
Travellers on entering the city are apt
to carry away first impression by
their first view of it and a better
opinion would be made if needed i'm
provements were installed.
The Frisco has put in fine side
walks on both sides of the crossing
on Main street and there is no rea-
son why the Katy should not follow
suit. This is a matter that is caus-
ing considerable comment among the
citizens of Tulsa and the city fathers
had up a matter of certain improve
ments that the Katy should make at
the last meeting of the council.

COMPLETION OF GRAVITY LINE
TO GLENN POOL.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Glenn Oil Now Being Piped Direct
From Tulsa to Standard 8 Term
mus at Tidewater, N. j.

The Prairie Oil and Gas company
Tuesday afternoon completed the
gravity line extending from the main
pipe line near the pumping station,
west of this city, to the Glenn pool.
This forms tho connecting link and
gives the Glenn pool an outlet with
the western terminus Of the Stand
ards pipe line at Tidewater, N. j.
On the instant a jointure was made
with the laterals at the extreme south
west limit Of the Glenn pool, the new
pipe line was formally christened. A
bottle of native wine was broken CO.
incident with the running of the oil
which now flows eastward in a per-
petual stream.
The christening was witnessed by
officials and employees of the Prairie
Oil and Gas company and large
crowd of oil men which number would
have been trebled if the weather
had been favorable.
An eight-inch pipe line from the
Glenn pool to the jerks tank farm
was completed yesterday and is now
in service.
With such running facilities as
these the congested condition which
has existed in the Glenn for several
months will be relieved. Operations
will also resume on an extensive scale
and that great field will become the
scene Of wonderful activity within
the next few months.
The discovery and growth Of the
Glenn pool reads like one of the IA
bles from the "Arabian Nights" ("
Wildcatting, with but faint hopes
Of striking oil, Robert Galbraith and
associates brought in the celebrated
Glenn No. l, on November %, last.
Controlling some Of the best leases
in that locality, the Galbraith COM
pany now boast Of over half the pro-
duction, having twenty-three wonder
full producers. These wells have
practically been shut in for long
time, but it is estimated that when al
lowed to produce at full capacity,
they will average 500 barrels q day,
each.
Galbraith and associates value their
holdings at not less than $4,000, 900.
Other companies, such as the Creek
and 0glesby, have good properties
and bid fair to leap into the seven
figure column Of wealth before many
months.
The Glenn oil is a Arst cisss pro-
duet. 1t tests 80 out Of possible
40, and is of grade which is pro-
duced in the Pennsylvania field, would
command $l.6l a barrel, instead Of
the measly 4S cents doled out by the
| Standard Oil company.

BOULDER AVE. TO BE METRO
POLITAN TH0ROUGHFARE.
MAGNIFICENT DRIVEWAY
Horner and Bayne Additions to Have
Electric Lights, Gas, Beautiful
Homes and Improvements.

South Boulder is looming up these
days. Many beautiful homes are build
ing and more are contemplated. A
boulevard from the city line to the
river on Boulder is now one of the
assurances of the Immediately future.
Mike Horner, Lon Stansberry and
Geo. G. Bayne, all heavy property
owners there have taken upon them
selves the responsibility Of improving
the addition and building the drive
way. At the present there is no bou-
levard in the city reaching to the riv-
er, but the Boulder driveway will soon
add that metropolitan feature to the
city.
Work on grading the boulevard be-
gins Immediately, and dirt will be
flying before the close Of the week.
The new additions in that part of the
town present the prettiest and best
shaded part Of the city for lovers of
beautiful homes. Many new homes
have been ,builded within very short
space of time. Frank Buel is to
build $4,000 home in his addition.
Geo. G.. Bayne is to erect a $4,000
home in handsome ten acres of
mammoth shade trees. J. d. Hagler
is to build. L. X. Cone is building
several fine residences. Many Others
are planning to build on lots already
purchased. All the homes are of splen-
did proportions. The architecture of
the new homes is exceedingly attrac-
tive.
A complete sewer system is to be
installed, electric lights placed on the
street corners, gas is to be piped and
water mains laid. All modern conven-
fences are to be supplied and the
builders are determined upon making
that portion of the city the most at
tractive residence portion of the ely.

LIGHTNING IS A CURSE
A SEVERE STORM KILLS TWO
Hoodoo Follows Career of Pawnee
Bill's Show.

Harrisburg, Pa, August 8-Pawnee
Bills wild west show was yesterday
afternoon struck by a severe lightning
storm for the second time within two
weeks. At Bayonne, N. j., a week
ago, during a heavy storm, the main
tent collapsed and number of women
were injured in the ensuing panic.
Two persons were killed yesterday
afternoon, one performer, the other
lemonade vendor. The big exhibi-
ton tents stood up in spite Of the
heavy buffeting. Pawnee Bill Major
Gordon Lillie) and his staff assisted
the police IL handling the frightened
crowd and saw to it that the big herd
of horses, two of which were struck
by lightning and killed, did not STAN
pede as was the case at Bayonne.
The storm was at its worst in the
vicinity of the ground selected for the
show.
