2,400 BELOW THE
 EARTA'S RFACE
Is The Depth Reached By The Gas Company At
 Little Rock.

Little Rock, Aug. 25. Pound ing away 2,400 feet below the surface of the earth, the drill of the local gas company headed by Col. John B. Jones, continues to cut it's way through the endless bed of shale through which it has already travelled 1,6OO feet. The drill is equipped to go 5000 feet, as the geologists who pick ed out the spot, near Hummer vile, informed the company gas was certainly there, but it would be found very deep. The drill has been much delayed on ac- count of caving in but machinery has been purchased to remedy this, and Col. Jones thinks it will be only a short time until the re- maining 600 feet is drilled or the gas is found. The shale is filled with places as hard as steel, and one of these may stop the drill entirely. If the drill goes 5000 feet without striking gas, they will buy new cable and contin- ue drilling, as they are confident the gas is there.

 Will you allow me space in your valuable paper to note few facts about my home county, Lasalle County, Texas? There is a mistaken idea in your county in regard to our country.
 We have no sand storms, as some people back tn re imagine. 1 confess that we have a few drawbacks, but have a very healthful country and rich loam sandy land. This year has been rather dry, but we are having plenty of rain now. We have an excellent soil for raising water melons, and about 20 or 9 car loads of melons have been shipp- ed from our little town this sea son.
 We have a fine school here people are alive to educational interests. We also have good church, and many devoted church members. A Christian spirit prevails among our people.
 We have plenty of timber for firewood and fence posts, which l have decided ought to satisfy person. We have plenty of water, the most of which is pumped by wind-mills, although we have some flowing wells.

ANOTHER oRCANIzA-
 TON BUSTED"
United Clubs of Benevolence of America Kicks
 the Bucket. "

Little Rock, Aug. 25. From the glass doors of rooms 816 and SIS of the Southern Trust build ing, have been eraced the enticine signs of the United Clubs of Be- nevolence of America. That high sounding organization is now a matter of history, ard bitter history too, for some of those who banked their money on the corporation, and for oth- CTS who credited it for supplies. Out of the Christmas holidays came an organization formed for the purpose of giving mutual in- surance to the members at ac- tual cost. The company was in- corporated in the circuit court and passed in the State insurance office. The aim of the incorpor- ators, all of which were placed in the articles of incorporation, were high sounding and tending to elevate the morals of mankind and almost pay for the purpose of doing it. Blount C, Trice, a local attorney, was the father of the organization. To read his inscription, one would think the passport was at hand to univer- sal plenty.
 People of decided socialistic tendencies took kindly to the cor poration, as did some old school mates of Trice. This gave the corporation the required bond and handsomely furnished rooms in the Southern Trust building were secured. Much literature was sent out and day by day the incorporators looked for the waves to cast up the bread which had been sent out. Nothing came although the elabora literature sent out was a beautiful treatise on religion and mythology, which promised to the members insur- ance at actual cost and education on the side by night schools to be opened in all towns. The daily passing of the mail carrier with out incoming checks finally con- quered. Several suits have been filed against the concern for the printing done, the concern which furnished the rooms has taken it all back, and some furniture be- longing to Trice is held for rent.

Texarkanian;
 n old bill of lading which has pntly turned up, and which is in the hands of W. M. Paup, ,loses the fact that the name |svarkana" is not altogether rinal with this magnificent which now spreads itself ov- tbe borders of two states. It
 been generally supposed that karkana has the unique dis ction of having a name that ,ot possessed by any other city fine face of the earth, and that
 name was created especially
 solely for our benefit. But
 appearance of this bill of lad
 dispels this illusion. The name karkana was in existence at |st four years, and probably ger, before this city was ever bught of. The bill of lading Fen a shipment of one bale of Eia bagging and ten bundles lock ties shipped from New ]eans via the steamboat Tex kana to J. B. Glass at Glass hding.

We are pleased to learn that the matter of securing amendments to the charter by giving the city cOun cil more power in the ordering of municipal improvements, especially with reference to a sewer system, is under consideration and that meet ings are being held by public spirited citizens. They should bear in mind, though, that the beginning of the legislative session is only a month away and that it is of the greatest importance that Phoenix's wants should be formuisted by that time.

THE ROAD TO CASTLE CREEK.


 The excursion to Castle Hot Springs from which several motor cars returned yesterday afternoon, ought to invest automObiling in Phoe nix with a new interest. Hitherto the chief drawback has been the absence or lack of objective points. Of course there are Mesa and Tempe but both are so nearby. from the au- tomobilist's point of view, that they might be considered within the su- burbs There, too, is Roosevelt, but the only attraction there is purely for sightseers. Other points of interest within the valley or adjacent to it are subject to the same objection. The edge is soon taken off of even automobiling if there is no place to go. One gets tired of driving for the mere sake of driving.
 But Castle Hot Springs, which has hitherto been thought to be nearly in- accessible for the comfort and pleas ure of automobile parties, replaces the edge on the sport. A place is within easy reach if one can get there in time for breakfast, or if he can return to the city by the middle of the afternoon after a late lunch there. That is what the eXcursionists did yesterday-accompli the run in four hours.
 There has been no special prepara- tion of the road between Phoenix and the Junction, but beyond that there is a twenty-four mile stretch of the finest and most scenic road in the west-alone worth the trouble of the trip. And then, the hotel beyond, of fering every luxury and attraction afforded by metropolitan hostelries, and many more, the magnificent baths and forms of amusement not obtainable in the cities, available only on the grounds of the wealthier Country clubs. Heree is certainly an objective point at the end of pleas urable and exciting drive
 We believe that the relation which is being established between Phoenix and this most delightful of resorts will result in making this much more of an automobile town than it already is. We believe, too, that another result will be the making or the i'm springs which will add much more to the pleasure of automobning.
