ARTESIAN WELL. NEAR
MILLER IS ACCURATE
WEATHER F"ORECASTER
Discoverer of Trait Acquired
Reputation as Prophet
Strong Oil Traces.

Miller. s.. D., April 14-An artesian
well on the George Marsh farm, a mile
south OF this town, attracts consider
able attention on account Of it's freakish
habits. One OF It's traits is to act In
the capacity OF a weather barometer.
Just before a rain or storm the water
from the we'll changes in color to a
dark gray or milky appearance. chang
ing back again to its natural color be-
fore the storm ceases or about the
time the weather clears.
This has been one of the wells freaks
ever since 1t was bored. some two
years ago. John Coke, who first
noticed it, became quite a weather
prophet by following the wells fore
casts. He would come to town and tell
his friends what was going to happen
In weather. He would always hit the
mark. He did not tell anyone until
recently that ii was the artesian well
that was his weather guide.
Another freak OF the we'll is to throw
out considerable oil that seems to leave
settings on the bottom OF the tank
where IL empties. This well seems to
a v stronger oil bearing features than
other wells in the central part OF the
state. Oil ~prospectors are now talking
OF boring a we'll west OF here in search
of oil, but If 1t exists anywhere in
South Dakota IL would seem to be near
the freak well on the Marsh place.

YOUNG MITCHELL MAN DIES
WHEN GUN IS DISCHARGED

Mitchell, S. D.. April 12.-George w.
Winsor. son Of F. H. Winsor, lawyer
and city alderman, is dead as the re-
suit of an accident which occurred here
shortly after 3 o'clock yesterday after
loon. He had zone into the basement
of the home of his brotherinlaw, DIR.
q. g. Kimball, a few o distant from
his own home, to borrow some garden
tolls. A shot was heard and his sister
and the maid, running below, found the
young man expiring on the floor with
a bullet hole through his heart. The
revolver found near the body belonged
to DR.. Kimball and had been hanging
in a holster on the wall.
1t is believed that Winsor was
handling the gun and that it became
accidentally discharged. Winsor, who
was % years Of age, was one of the
most popular young men Of the city
and had many friends all owe the
tate. He had entered the University
Of Wisconsin early in the year for the
study of law, but had been forced to
return home recently on account OF ill
health.

thrilling a story as did the Eitel Fried
erich. Her record of destruction. how
ever, was accomplished with only four
guns, taken from the German cruiser,
Karlsruhe and two captured later from
the British merchant steamer, La Cor
rentna, sunk october z, 1914.
The most connected story OF the long
voyage from New York-255 days in all
was told last night by over Lieuten-
ant Alb Warneke, the first officer who
left New York harbor with the ship:
I'VE left New York August 3 and put
into the great big ocean," said Lieut.
Grant Warneke.
I'VE were not a warship then, but
three days out, off the Bermudas, we
met the German cruiser Karlrube. We
took from her two 3-inch guns which
we mounted on the bow OF the ship,
and took Lieutenant Captain Their
fielder. her navigating officer, to COM
mando our ship. We also took II Of the

we made for the south Atlantic.
n the first ship we encountered was
the British ship Indian Prince, which
we sank September 4, 1914. From that
time on we remained on the ocean de-
stroying the enemy where we might
find her.
II want to say that Sir Edward Grey,
the British premier, has been kind to
us, and that IL Great Britain had been
organized as well as we were to patrol
have remained alive these many
months. Sir Eward- Grey sent US those
two big guns on u afterdeck. He
sent them to US on the British La Cor
rentina on October Z. When we got
those 4-inch guns we felt pretty safe.
