and they are becoming somewhat dis
couraged over the result of their ef-
forts to locate vein Of the aqua.
Several weeks ago the well drillers
struck vein or pocket Of gas and 1t
has been burning steadily ever since.
1t has been piped and left burning to
see just how much there is of it. and
a few days ago the well men started
drilling in another place.
The second hole was started thirty
feet from the first we'll and at the
depth Of sixty-five feet, ten feet deep
er than the original we'll. gas was
struck again. There is no let up in the
flow of gas in we'll number one, and
in the second the pressure is even
stronger than the first.
Mr.. Sanlmon is still up against 1t so
far as water is concerned. The gas
makes a beautiful sight, and it may be
utilized for lighting and cooking pur-
poses. but it will not water his stock,
and the drillers will have to start oper-
atoms again in some other place.

GIRL WHO ESCAPED DEATH IN
TITANIC DISASTER COMES TO
CENTRAL CITY.
RESCUED IN SAME BOAT WITH
WHITE STAR LINE MANAGER
Miss Brtha Lehman Tells Story Of
Thrilling Escape From ssa- Boat
Sent Away Partially Filled and Many
Women Left Behind, Most Of Thorn
Storage Passengers.

Central City, May s.-Miss Bertha
Lehman Of Berne. Switzerland, one
of the survivors Of the ill-fated IT.
tanic, who arrived in Central City re-
Gently. told her story Of the terrible
disaster as follows:
She was second cabin passenger
and had retired, but was awakened by
noise Of people on deck. She arose,
one put life belt on her and she
learned of the accident. She hastily
went back to her cabin for her hat
and money. These she secured and
went again on deck where the last
lifeboat was being lowered. Some one
put her in the boat along with eight
other women. The boat would hold
about fifty people, and the rest were
all men. Mr.. Ismay being one of them.
They rowed a few feet from the ship
when they came across another boat
which had been overturned with forty
men clinging to it's sides. These men
were all taken into the boat The ex-
ira weight strained it to the utmost
capacity, bringing the edge of the boat
close to the water line. Had there been
the slightest roll of sea, the boat
would have capsized.
200 Feet From Sinking Boat.
They were about 200 feet from the
Titanic when she went down. Miss
Lehman positively asserts there were
135 women left on the ship mostly
steerase passengers Miss Lemann af-
firms the same story as told by others.
There was no panic, no excitement;
the people were calm did not seem to
realize the danger. There was order
and discipline in carrying out the ships
order; the band played up until the
very last moment. When the ship went
down there were terrible cries and
means. Miss Lehman said the cap
tain and officers had been drinking and
having merry time and for awhile
the ship was without any one to guide
it. This caused alarm among passen-
gers and when the warning came it,
too, was utterly disregarded.
She said it was intensely cold and
they were almost frozen when picked
up by the Carpathia. Miss Lehman
is sweet-faced, intelligent Swiss girl,
sister of Mrs. Charles Zembrunnem.
east of Central City. She did not ex-
perience the slightest jar when the
boat struck the iceberg.

Iowa Hopes TO Get. Rid Of Alleged Lsp-
III er in Course Of Time.
Special to Times-Republican.
Des Nroines, May S.-It is probable
that if Iowa is to get rid of Mr.. Hirsh-
field. the alleged victim of leprosy at
Centerville. some method will have to
be devised to make it more comfort
able for him to move than to remain.
He entered into an agreement to stand
the expense Of special train and after
the matter had been arranged he
backed out. He is quite wealthy and
can afford to pay for the trip but he
has became offended at the notoriety
into which he has been drawn. He is
quarantined at the residence of his
brother-in law, and guard is sta
toned there at all times to enforce the
quarantine. 1t is possible that he and
his relatives vii! realize that a perpet-
ual quarantine upon their residence is
not going to be desirable, and he will
voluntarily leave the state; but appar-
emily there is no law for compelling
him to go away and no money appro-
priated for use in paying bills in such
case.
