Mr.. Reeder of Kansas told a story to
the house Of representatives about a
Kansas settler and a trick he played.
II think we sent him on to the state
q Wyoming" he said
I'VE have a lot Of bad people in cur
state from Kansas" suggested Mr.
Wendell Of Wyoming.
This was a pretty smart fellow, and
/ wonder they did not send him to
congress-" answered Mr. Reeder. The
law required the settler 20 build a
house with a board hoor and a board
roof. So he dug into the bank a space
Of three feet wide and six feet long
and put poles across the top for q roof.
Then he sharpened a stick and bored
holes IN the ground Of the dugout.
Next be bored holes through the roof
and made an affidavit that he had

FISHING FOR OIL.
Curious spsetasls en- the Coast o.

Curious spsetasls on ths Coast Of
caiifornia.
In the neighborhoOd Of SummerIand
on the coast Of California, ten miles
south Of Santa Barbara, the visitor
may behold at the present time a
strange and Interesting spectacle the
like Of which was never seen IN the
world before. 1t Is nothing more or
less than a fishery for petroleum.
Out from the smooth, sandy beach
and extending at right angles there
with into the ocean are many long
docks or piers supporting old derricks.
The latter are Ike any other derricks
constructed for such a purpose, but In
stead Of being used to bring up OIL
from the dry land they are made to
serve for fetching the fuid from be
meath the waters Of the sea.
The piers described are. many Of
them. Of great length. stretching a quar-
ter Of mile or more out into the Pa
CHIC, In order to tap the oil bearing
strata under the sea Derricks are set
ell along the beach itself. upheld by
piles, ln order that the breakers may
how back and forth beneath them.
One might imagine that the discovery
Of the oil under the sea came about
through observation OF petroleum float
ing on the waves. Such does not seem,
however, TO have been the case. Pros
pectors for the precious fiuid. having
come upon a productive oil field on
terra 6rma IN the neighborhood Of
Summerland, were naturally led down
% the ocean beach by the clrcum-
stance that the oil producing area ap-
peared 10 extend In that direction.
Finding that there was OIL beneath the
very breakers, It occurred to them to
seek Il farther out

the sea Il remarkable. Ike all the oil

She was waiting for me when l got down to the office that morning. I remember it was a Monday late in May, and my stenographer had not ar rived. In her place beside the door I did not see her immediately, and only her trembling efforts to rise at tracted my attention. A winter or more ghostly effect than that of her snowy hair, pallid face and deep-sunk eyes all in relief from a severe black dress. it would be difficult to imag- inc, and l confess that started the mefest trife as she came forward out of the shadowy anteroom corner, her thin hands extended toward me.
 'I hope this is MT. Lawrence Randi" she said, in low, eager voice.
 No madam, these are MT. I,and $ offices, and 1 am Mir. Duncan, one of his partners.
 T am Mrs Dwight Stokes Coleman. and 1t is concerning a most important and peculiar matter, which has to do with my husband, pr Coleman, the pastor of the Fifth Avenue Disciples church, that l have come to see Mr. Rand. 1 must have help at once or | shall go mad myself. My family physi- clan. Dr. Bowles, in Seventy second street came to us at our request yes terday afternoon and recommended me to Mr. Rand. He says that it is a mat ter outside the bounds of any profes- sion except MT Rands. which seems to be the rendering commonplace of things apparently most extraordinary.
 Perhaps if you state the case may be able to assist you. and l can at least restate it to Mir Rand on his return from Boston tomorrow.

 The note of disappointment in her voice was so intense that I was touched, for the tears were constantly yelling. to her eyes, and she could scarcely steady her voice as she went on to relate her trouble.
 Relieved of her iudireetion of state ment and put in the proper proportion. her story was as follows; A most mys- terious circumstance was weighing so heavily on her husband mind that she feared he was about to lose his reason if it was not already impaired. He had obtained metropolitan parish only that year, was overcoming some bit ter opposition among his church mem. bers, and was completing the last vol ume of an important historical work. Altogether, he was at the critical point of his career, and, with two sons and two daughters not yet out of college, everything was at stake.

JEROME CHARGES
TRICK AGAINST HIM
Declares There Is Sinister
Motive in Request to See
Grand Jury Records.

NEW YORK, March 25.-There was
a lively half hour before Justice Fos-
ter in general sessions today when
Franklin Pierce, representing the com
mittee that recently filed charges with
Governor Hughes, asking the removal
of District Attorney Jerome. filed sew
eral motions for permission 10 inspect
certain grand jury minutes. Jerome OPP
posed the motion ln person, and there
was a lively debate after which Justice
Foster cook the matter under advise
mcuU.
One OF the cases in which Pierce
wants 10 see the grand jury minutes is
that of George W. Perkins, former vice
president Of the New York Life Insur-
ance Company another referred 10 the
Investigation of the "ice trust" and
a third 20 traction cases.
II was intimated that The demand
FOR inspection of the grand jury min
utes Is TO obtain more evidence OF al
legged neglect Of Jerome The latter
caused something Of a sensation when
he declared that civil litigations re-
gardtnS the same matters are pending
and that when the time came he would
make statement showing that there
is a sinister motive behind all these
proceedings against him.
