A PECULIAR PHENOM ENON
Tract of Land Near Danville Raised
Above It's Former Level.

Danville, Feb. 16.-PropelIed
by some force beneath the surface,
an entire acre Of ground near the
Underwood farm, seven miles
from Danvilie, has been raised and
is now from six inches to two feet
above the level of the surrounding
land. Formerly the land was on
q level with the land surrounding
it. The change took place in a
single night. Farmers in the
vicinity claim that last Saturday
night they heard 8 strange noise
as of a cyclone, but could not &C
count for the noise until it was
discovered that this acre of ground
had been raised from a level with
the surrounding land.
There is no one here who can
account for the peculiar phe-
nomenon, but it is the belief of
many that it was caused by gas.
At the end of the raised land there
is a clear break ard the land is sew
eral inches higher than the land
Immediately adjoining it. Toward
the center of the acre the land is
about two feet higher than near
the edge
Hundreds of persons living in
the vicinity have visited the scene
In the last few days, but no one is
able to give an explanation for the
peculiar condition. Many fear
that the lifting Of this acre means
that al extinct volcano has broken
loose, and fear q destructive up
heaVal.

NEW USE FOR BOOZE.

The Batesville News tells the
following story of the new and
useful manner in which the citizens
of that town are now using their
booze:
"On last Wednesday an at
.torney of this city and one of his
out of town clients became inVolv
ed in quarrel over some business
matter. Strong epithets and hot
words were exchanged until the
client lost control of his temper,
and reaching down deep into his
overcoat pocket, drew out an ugly
quart bottle heavily loaded with
Elixir of Life" and grasplng 1t
by the neck he elevated it to an
angle of forty five degrees and
started to land on the attorney $
Uranium. This all transplred IN
the circuit clerks office, and when
the chief clerk observed that a
tragedy was about to take place he
rushed forward and with his
strong arm stayed terrific blow
which might have resulted disas-
terouslv to the attorney and caused
the smell of corn juice to reign
supreme for many hours. .

MAN BURNED TO DEATH
Andrew Pruitt Met Horrible Fate in
Barn Near Oil Trough

Andrew Pruitt, who was sixty
nine years old and an ex Federal
soldier, was burned to death in a
barn on ALT Leonard's place near
the head of Oil Trough bottom
Thursday night of last week.
The old man went to Newport
Thursday morning to do some
trading He bought a jug of
whisky and in drinking along on
the way while en- route home, be
came intoxicated. He got down
off his horse at Alf Leonard's and
became so noisy that Mr.. Leonard
started to take him on to his home
about two miles away, but as it
was late in the evening and was
getting dark, he stopped at the
barn, put the old man in, covered
him up we'll with hay and fastened
the door from the outside. About
II o'clock Mr.. Leonard was awake
and went to the door to see if the
old man was all right. Everything
seemed to be quiet, and supposing
that the old man was sleeping, he
returned to bed. About 3 o'clock
be was awake again and found the
barn in flames. Pruitt was burn
ed to death, his charred remains
being found in the ruins after the
Ere had burned itself out.
1t is supposed that Pruitt sober
ed up during the night and upon
awaking struck a match to see
where he was and in this manner
the fire was started. The door be-
ing fastened on the outside cut off
all means Of escape and the old
man persisted in the flames.
Coroner Finn held an inquest
Friday, the jury's verdict being in
accordance with tue above facts.

SQUIRE THARP'S REPLY

To The Newark Journal:
Your invitation accepted for
another long winded stunt
You very well know The Jour
nal has not treated me fairly. You
had the facts as to my of1icia! acts
in the Arnold case and did not
publish them. | waited for three
issues Of The Journal for you to
do SO; then | gave the facts to the
public through your paper. Now
you seem to be somewhat touched
because | made complaint that you
had not treated me fairly.
And you feel that Alexander's
stunt was a sufficient explanation
for your not giving facts in this
NATTER Now, Mr.. Editor, you
started this matter and if you made
an honest error in your first pub
LEGATION along this line don't you
think it would have been doing
myself justice for you to have
corrected this, by publishing the
facts? And again, you took an
other stab at me when you referred
to those who did not sign the petit
ton at the mass meeting, Jan. %,
And again you thrust your dagger
to its hilt, when | tried to give the
public some facts to put myself
right In their estimation and cor

Now, Mr.. Editor, in Justice 10
myself | ask you to give the pub
lie your motive for this hienious
attack you have made upon me
and let me know if it is my private
or official record you are after,
and when you do this / will gladly
answer you and explain to the
public any questions that you see
lit to ask me touching my past act.
Oh. no, Mr.. Editor, l did not
expect you to carry an explanation

error, but | did expect you to cor

BACK FROM OKLAHOMA
Rev. J. I. Martin Tells About Con-s
ditions in the New State.

Well, Mr. Editor, about year
ago | moved my family to Okla
homa. | did not go myself until
April, and spent most of the sum-
mer also in Arkansas, as [ was in
the state mission work. | wrote
you several letters in regard to-
that country, as many of your
readers will perhaps remember.
Well, we have moved back tor
Arkansas, having arrived here the
goth of January. OF course, we
had reasons for coming back, but
first | must say that | have
not changed my mind in regard to-
Oklahoma as q farming country.
One hand can cultivate from
thirty five to fifty acres there. and
it is much easier on a team. They
use more modern machinery there
than we do here, and the weather
does not get SO hot, as the wind
blows all the time. This is the
principal reason we did not like
out there, as there is a strong,
roaring wind blowing all the time,
which makes it very unpleasant.
Then, there is but little sociability
among the people. To give you
some idea of conditions along this
line, | will just state that we lived
in half mile of a faa~ay who
never visited US during tne entire
time we lived there, not even in
sickness. But there some reasons
for this. The country is filled up
with people from everywhere,
people of all shades of belief,
morally, politically, reigiously
and otherwise.
We concluded that we would be
better satisfied on own farm than
to live on rented land in that
country. Where man rents
there for a paTI of the crop he
must plant at least half his land in
cotton. Then when gathering
time comes, hands cannot be had
to gather the crop, so a man who
has only a small force cannot get
along very we'll. If a man could
buy a farm of course he could
manage better.
| consider that as healthy q
country as this. Of course they
have some chills there and some
fever. The country where we
lived is mostly prairie, but there
is enough timber for fuel.
| want to commend the efforts
of the people of Newark in their
good work for temperance and
good morals and will say that am
ready to help in furthering the
cause in any manner that | can.
