A phenomenon that has puzzled scien-
tists and oil experts created a good deal
of excitement in the oil fields near Gal
weston. Texas, a few days ago. when
well dug 200 feet blew out with ternhc
gas explosion. This was not an UNUSUAL
feature nor was the spouting OF water
but three hours later, with deafenlng
roar which was heard for many miles,
the hole in the ground began belchiug
what appears to be lava and molten lead
or red-hot iron, rocks the size OF goose
eggs and Sulphurous gases and strange
dust which covered trees. The rocks
and lava were shot in the air about lUO
feet, and, after performance TOR more
than four hours, in which the eruption
gradually decreased, the ground near the
hole began to sink and cavein extend
ing nearly 400 feet in diameter is report
ed. Fearing further Developments many
of fhe oil field workers residing nearby
are preparing to move before the sinking
ground claims their property. The oil
volcano has ceased emitting everything
but gas, but much uneasiness IS felt.
Scientists declare the explosion must
have extended into the bowels OF the
earth at least l 900 or perhaps 1000 feet
below the bottom of the l,2OO-foot well
o have brought forth these heated sub
stances and iron of meteor formation.

Many OF the colored people in the low
er part of Lancaster county, Va, are
greatly excited over the reports concern
leg a wild, horned man who is said to be
roaming about the forests OF that section.
Those who profess to have seen him say
that he is a frightful looking object,
clothed in tattered garments, with long,
shaggy beard and hair falling over his
breast and shoulders, and a sharp horn
protruding from his forehead. So GREATS
the CONSERVATION amongthe credulousthat
doors are barred and windows nailed
down at night, and cautious watch IS
kept in the daytime. A woman and sew
eral children, living near the road from
Lancaster to Kilmarnock, say they caught
sight OF the wild man several times, and
when he saw them he leaped high in the
air, shook his long hair and beard, and
uttered dismal howl, and then made off
toward neighboring forest while they
made haste for home.

SPLENDID FEATURE OF MEET

ERs AT DEVILS

Devils Lake, N. D., Feb. 10.-Presi-
dent Moe and Secretary Barnes are de-
lighted with their new venture, The
Question Box, introduced at the ses-
sions of the North Dakota Retail Hard
ware Dealers association in conven-
ton here. IS
The idea is considered the best fea-
ture thus far introduced at the meet
ings since the dealer who is confront
ed by problems gains much knowledge
by having his questions on business
answered by those who know.
The following committees were APP
pointed: Resolutions, f. A. Wilson
Bathgate; j. III. Murphy, Rolette; r.
A. Roell, Minot Nominations, II. f.
Emery, Fargo: ]. r. McCollin, Hope;
p. Paulson, Willow City.
The need of closer business relations
will form part Of the resolutions, as
will opposition to the parcels post and
catalogue houses.
The dealers were entertained BY the
commercial club, being guests at the
theatre and at banquet and smoker.
A wrestling match between McGurrer
and Hague was also staged.

LOST IN STORM;
SLEPT IN STACK
REMAINED IN STRAW STACK UN-
TIL NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. AND
FACE WERESFRozEN.

Ellendale. N. d., Feb. 10.-Miss Jo-
sephine Elizabeth Murray, teacher in
Ada school district No. 8. short
distance from Guelph had a terrible
experience the night Of the worst storm
of the winter, and IL was only nv rare
presence of mind and unusual pluck
and endurance that she survived the
experience and was not frozen to death.
MISS Murray dismissed her school
at the usual hour and started for her
boarding place some distance. The
storm was at its height as she left
the little white schoolhouse. In a short
time 1t became dark and in the blind
ing storm she was unable to find her
way. Despite the high wind and
driven snow she continued to struggle
forward hoping TO sarrive at some resi-
aence or place OF shelter. When nearly
exhausted and about ready to give up,
she encountered a. straw stack, and as
no other means OF protection was at
hand decided to avail herself of it's
scant protection until the storm
abated and she could proceed.
Burging shefself in the straw she
protected herself as much as possible.
49, " 81 10 steep DIS S1e might ne
overcome by the intense cold, she re-
sisted the Inclination. The hours were
long and are never to be forgotten.
From time to time as she became
chilled and benumb she reused herself
and walked around the stack.
In the morning when the scholars
arrived at the schoolhouse, MisssMur-
ray failed to arrive. Neighbors were
notified and inquiry at once made at
the boarding place On finding that she
had not returned home the night be-
fore, searching party was imme-
diately organized. In a short time
Miss Murray was discovered and taken
home.
AS a result Of her terrible expert
ence Miss Murray had her hands and
race badly frozen but is able to con-
tinue her school duties. She has been
congratulated upon her narrow escape
and upon her courage during the ter
rifle ordeal.
A surprising incident in connection
with her passing the night in the open,
was the fact that the straw stack
which gave her shelter and where she
passed the entire night was but forty
rods from her boarding place, but
so severe was the storm that she was
unable to see the house or barn,

peas and other plain farm flowers that
fiourished under her care, can ever
forget them We have often said and
still feel, that if every farm wife in
the north country could have visited
this place, it would have served as an
inspiration and encouragement that
would have cheered and benefited the
whole country.
Notwithstanding the splendid work
done by Superintendent Hoverstad at
Crookston, owing to meeting so many
in institute work, he is doubtless best
known to the greatest number in this
field. AS early as 1896, he began
speaking with Superintendent Gregg
in Minnesota and every winter since
then he has done more or less of this
kind Of work In 1906 he was with
Prof Thomas Shaw in Judging the 100
farms in the j. J. Hill farm contest,
in Minnesota and the Dakotas, and
has since done much similar expert
work
In 1907, Professor Hoyerstad was
made superintendent OF farmers insti~
tutes in North Dakota, and has ever
since kept this work splen6idly to the
front.
