A gas we'll near Sapula Indian
Territory has been on fire for two
weeks and, as yet, there are no signs
of its abatement. After fourteen
days of work it was capped, but the
great volume of gas found other
ways out through the crevices and
for half mile it spread open the
earth. At one place hole three
feet wide and 20 feet long was torn
and sheet of flame 20 feet long
and Is feet high is blazing. Tons
of rock and shale were torn from
the cracks, and the constant trem-
bling of the earth is frightening
everybody in the vicinity. Great
pools of oil on the creeks and in the
ravines are also on fire.

A Dead Merchant

Breathes there man with soul so dead
Who never to himself has said,
"My trade of late is getting bad;
1'll try another ten-inch ADJ"
II such there be, 60 mark him we'll
For him no bank account shall swell;
No angels watch the golden stair,
To welcome home the millionaire.
The man who never asks for trade,
By local line or ad displayed,
Cares more for rest than worldly
gain
And patronage but gives him pain.
Tread lightly friend lest no rude sound
Disturb his solitude profound.
Here let him live in calm repose,
Unsought except by men he owes;
And when he dies go plant him deep
That naught may break his dreaming
sleep,
Where no rude clamor may dispel
The quiet that he loved so we'll
And when the world may know its loss
Place on his grave wreath of moss,
And on stone above, "Here lies
A chump who wouldn't advertise. y
