GAS WELL
Pronounced A DuSter Is Now
A Producer

Wooster, March 4-Rev. DR.. l.. e.
Holden, president of the University of
Wooster, is owner of gas we'll near
Shreve that is showing more than L.
100000 feet day. The striking of gas
in that part of the county has caused
a scramble for leases, and the people
of the village are already dreaming
of seeing their village transformed
into great activity because of natural
gas.
The well is declared a freak by drill
ers. At depth of over 5000 feet the
hole was pronounced duster. The
contractor removed his tools, paid his
bills and hired teams to take the outfit
to another location. When the man re.
turned the following morning 1t was
discovered by the roar of the escaping
gas that the we'll had drilled itself In.
to the sand during the night, was
showing a pressure of many thousand
feet, which has increased steadily dur.
ing the week, and today was more
than 100000.

thousands of persons laugh during the
10 years he has been a clown with one
OF the circuses, which has quarters
here, Raleigh l.. Wilson, of Lincoln,
Neb., has resigned and hereafter will
devote his time to the saving of souls.
In bis letter Of resignation, received at

Of the town, decided to enter. He

He thought 1t was a good joke and de-

cluded, he says the church dignitaries

FORTUNE
To Son Of Man Who Rescued
Them

New York, March 4-In acknow.
Judgement of an act of bravery per-
formed q years ago, by his father,
Charles H. Tunley. of Brooklyn, a
bookkeeper for the Standard Oil COM
pany, has just been notified of be-
quest of $S,OOO,OO0 made upon him by
those whose lives were saved by the
heroism of his parent.
When young man the elder Tunley
stopped runaway horse in Boston
and rescued from certain injury Mrs.
Elizabeth Woodbridge, Mrs. Jane Hop
per and Miss Mary Brown, sisters, and
daughters of wealthy parents. The
four became strong friends, and Char
les, then a baby, became the pet of the
three women. Later Tunley went to
the West Indies, and finally the sis
ters lost all track of him.
The sisters later moved to England,
and in 1905 all of them died. In their
wills Charles II. Tunley was named as

But No Difficulty Arose In
Removing Children
Most The Furnishings OF The
Church Saved
Blaze Started In Attic From
Defective FIue

Greersville, Ohio, March 4-The
Wesleyan M. e. church at this place
was completely destroyed by fire Sun
day morning, the blaze originating in
the attic from a defective flue. Sun
day school was in progress at the
church Mt the time of the breaking out
of the fire, but no difficulty was expert
enced in clearing the building. An
estimate of the loss places it at about
$1,000.
At about $3.50 o'clock Sunday per-
sons passing the church noticed smoke
isuing from the roof and caves of the
building and those inside were inn
mediately given the alarm. Without
trouble the children within were TAX
en- out by the older persons and be-
fore the flames had gained great deal
of headway, all were out,
AS soon as 1t was seen that the ef-
forts of the fire-fighters, who quickly
volunteed aid in the work of attempt
ing to extinguish the blaze, would be
fruitless, number Of men began the
work of removing portable articles
from the church. Almost all of the
seats were safely removed into the
,churchyard beyond the reach of the
confagration and the organ was saved
after considerable work. Nothing else
could be removed from the church as
1t was burning briskly and was seen
to be doomed.
AS stated, the fire was started in the
attic and was caused by a defective
hue. The fire in the stove was un-
usually large and the heat from the
chimney set fire to the woodwork near
the roof. Unfortunately the building
was not insured.
The Wesleyan M. E. church was
built in 1860 and has been in use ever
since it's erection. Rev. Arthur Os
borne is the present pastor.

 Clark Duff has returned from the Valdez creek country, where he has spent the summer. He says that all of the miners now working in that section will leave as soon as it freezes up, however, very few have been working this year, as most of the ground has been optioned to the Boston Syn dicate, who were required to do the as.essment work this year, ana will later do considerable de- vclopment work. A few small op- orators, whose ground was not in cludcd in the option, have been working and doing very well.
