FROZEN TO lElTHI. ..
N GASOLINE TANK
HORRIBLE FATE OF. CHARLES ED.
MUNDs, ONE OF THE pIscoV.
ERs OF PRODUCING GASOLINE.
AT WELLS.

,SISTERSVlLLB, w. Va, April 30
This morning about II o'clock Charles
Edmunds, a prominent gasoline manu-
Tacturer, was found frozen and suffer-
ed death in pit at one Of the wells
he had charge OF on Water street in
this city, by William Sutton, by whom
he was employed. Edmunds had gone
to tho well this morning for the pur'
pose of getting it in working order
and had gone into the pit at the end
OF the gas tank to drain the water
from the tank. While in there, 1t Is
supposed that he remained too long
and was overcome by the gas, as
there was large amount OF 1t In the
tank. After he was overcome and the
water had drained from the tank the
gasoline commenced 10 flow out, and
when found he was sitting upright In
the bottom OF the pit, frozen almost
stiH. The gasoline reached up almost
half way on his body.
This Is the lirst fatality since tho
business of getting the gasoline direct
from the wells was discovered in this
field.
Mr.. Edmunds, with tho Suttons, by
whom he was employed, was ono OF
the first men to discover that gasoline
could be made direct from the wells
without first refining the oil, and he
was an expert at the work. lie was
well known throughout the oil country
and came here from Pennsylvania
some years ago. He is survived by a
wife and family.

TALK
TUBERCULOSIS
DREADED scouRGE DISCUSSED
AT LOCAL CHURCHES YEsTER.
DAY BY CITY PHYSICIANS.

tuberculosis day was generally OBJ.
served throughout the city churches
yesterday and with but few exceptions
prominent physicians of Fairmont oc-
cupied the pulpits Of the local
churches and talked on the cause, pre-
valence and the cure and care Of the
disease.
= At tt the Presbyterian church last
evening DR.. c. w, Waddell was the
speaker. AT the Grace Lutheran
church DR.. C. o. Henry talked. DR.. l..
d. Howard appeared at the Diamond
street N. u. church and at the First
Baptist church last evening Drs. H. R.
Johnson and C. L. Holland were the
speakers. DR.. johnson spoke at the
morning service OF the Methodist Epis-
copal church. At the other churches
the pastors spoke briefly on the sub
ject and urged the people-|to awaken
to the fact that this disease must be
stamped out in our country.
The doctors who occupied the var.
lous pulpits gave interesting and help
full talks along the lines Of the cause
of the disease, its prevalence and the
means of prevention and cure OF same.
In several Of the churches the facts
were brought. out that statistics show
that 100000 people die annually in the
United States from this disease and
this is an average OF one person every
three minutes in the United States.
At this rate a city the size OF CHI
cago would be depopulated in n period
OF ten years. The, facts were clearly
brought to light that the tuberculosis
germ Is every where prevalent and
that to escape Its ravages the body
must be'kept In such shape that 1t is
able to resist the germ and stop Its
ravages. Statistics also show that 05
or even 100 per cent. of the people In
the world have at some period in their
lives been infected with this germ and
the reason they did not succumb to It's
rayages, was the fact that they were
in such bodily condition that they
were able to resist the disease while
those who we're not in physical condt-
ton to resist 1t succumbed to its ray
ages. The physicians impressed on
the congregations addressed the neces.
sity Of sanitation, cleanliness and pure
air, stating that this germ fourlshed
in filth and tlampness, 1t will take
the united efforts OF the American peo-
mortality which ocursalyo1 t
pie to in any way stop the ravages
Of tuberculosis and to at least reduce
the mortality which occurs from this
disease.
In some OF the churches the start
ling statements were made that q
death occurs on an average every day

GASOLINE TANK
is TO BE ERECTED AND oPER'
ATED IN THE sHINNsToN OIL
FIELD.

,sHENNsToN, May 1.-The probabil.
tiles are that a large gasolIpe plant
will be installed in the local oil field
in the near future. The South Penn
OIL Company is making arrangements
for this new feature, but when and
where the plant will be placed have
not been fully decided. Some time
ago this company had similar plant
located in the field, but 1t was aban'
doned, and the new plant will be a
second test Of this new oil field indus
try. Gasoline plants are used for the
purpose OF condensing the gasoline
from oil and gas in spraying oil well,
This was formerly a waste at the well
and the introduction OF the new device
has caused big saving from the by
product, In the shallow territory
along the Ohio river where these
plants are used extensively, they have
been the means OF bringing riches to
the operators,
