C.l.mitie. That Didn't occur.

When the first use was made of the natural gas wells people of a certain class were much disturbed. All sorts of evils were predicted, and warning letters were received by the companies in charge. One man sent a caution against boring much into the earth. The world was a hollow sphere, he said, filled with a gaseous substance and floating like a balloon in space. If the gas were allowed to escape disaster would follow. Another, claiming to be a scientific man, assured the owners of well that any fire coming in contact with the escaping gas would be com municated to the gas beneath and cause terrific explosions. "Men are too inQuisitive," he said. They peer too far. Let them beware" The gas com panies have kept on boring, and the world has so far held itself together.

the smashed partition into Mr.. Moneys
stateroom and did the same service for
him.
The anchor OF the Florida lay among
the wreckage In this room.
II those women had not been as
brave and cool as they were, there Is no
telling how many OF them might have
been lost when they were being sent
over the Republics side and up the
side OF the Florida. They say 1t was

choppy and the wind strong, 1t Is a
great wonder that many OF them were
not killed.
THE greatest praise Is due to the
captains OF all three ships. the Repub-

could not have done better"
