WASHINGTON, December 23.-
While talking today about the contest
between Senator Allison and Governor
Cummins for the seat in the Senate

of the Iowa delegation in Congress told
story to the effect that last summer

paigning for a third term he made a
speech at Churdan, Ia, in which he Of
fered a prayer for the early return to
health and long continued public SER
vice of Senator Allison, who was then
seriously Ill.
But from subsequent events it APP
pears that Cummins did not intend
that the Lord should take him serious

FOURTEEN ARE DROWNED IN
RIVERS RAGING TORRENT


Colbert, Okla, May 27.-Fourteen
persons on an island formed between
the new and old channels of Red
river were swept away in the rising
foods this morning and all of them are
believed to be dead.
Three children of ]. H. Roberts, the
ferryman at Lawton were swept from
the branches of tree in which they
had taken refuge and drowned.
VIII and Newton Stidman were
drowned near Henrietta while trying
to cross a swollen stream.
In the same vicinity two men
started across the river in skiff, but
failed to stem the current and were
carried down stream. 1t is hardly
probable that they have escaped death.
All of the rivers and streams in this
section are still rising. 1t rained very
little during the early morning, but the
weather is threatening this afternoon.

CRUDE PETROLEUM IS
ALREADY DISCOVERED
First Effort in Some Time, but a
Good Deal of Money Has Been
Spent on Such Projects Without Sue
cess.

There are indications that the oil
craze is to be revived in this section,
and that several companies are to be
formed for that purpose in this and
adjoining states, particularly Louis
lana.
The first of these companies to be
formed with any definite plans was
that just organized in New Orleans by
New Orleans and Gulfport capitalists
to bore for oil in the suburbs of Gulf
port, where samples of oil taken from
the ground is said to have been pro-
nounced genuine crude petroleum by
New Orleans chemist to whom it was
| submitted before the formation of
the company.
The concern is capitalized at 5000
and is officered by men from both New
Orleans and Gulfport.
This is the first organization of the
kind to be formed in Mississippi foi
two or three years, although there
were several of them being organized
during the period following the Beau
mont, Tex, find and up to two OIL
three years ago, good deal of money
having been spent in Mississippi Dor
ing for oil that never came.
In fact, a good deal of Hattiesburg
money has gone down into the ground
in the same way, and while it has
been rather hard on the trusting in
vestors. it has served perhaps to keep
many others away from those holes
in the ground.
But while Mississippi has so far
failed to develop oil in paying quanti-
ties, it is also pointed out that other
states failed repeatedly and continu-
ously up to the time they succeeded,
and former failures should not, per-
haps, operate to the encouragement
of those who now have renewed
hopes of finding fortunes in oil.

the pastors study, the .gentleman's
cloak room and the ladies' parlor. The
latter is probably the prettiest room
in the building and when fitted up IL
will be an elegant place for the ladies
to hold their different meetings.
The entire interior. while not gaudy.
is pretty and arranged for the COM
fort and convenience Of those who wor-
ship in the structure.
An entirely new set OF pews are be-
ing placed in position today and the
building will easily seat 500 people
and more can be comfortably seated
when 1t is necessary. The grounds are
being cleared OF today and It Is the
intention of the congregation to beau
tify the front as rapidly as time viii
permit.
The congregation has been worship
ping in the Newman Chapel up to this
time. About two years ago the
church was organized with member
ship of about forty, and although they
have been compelled to use a house
not suited to their needs, the member
ship has grown until 1t now is approx
imately 100. This is fine showing.
In this Important work of church
building the ladies' have been an i'm
portant factor, as they are in all good
movements.
