obstructive works almost entirely upon the material immediately available in the country i'm which they were operating. The Boers adhered to this principle In using wire entanglemenis, for they found an abundant supply of barbed wire close to the scene of most of their engage ments. owing to the large extent to which it is used by farmers throughout South Africa. The Boers demonstrated to fhs world the military possibilities of wire. but they were not confronted with tho problem of its transport.
 The second disadvantage of the harbed wire entanglement is that 1t hampers the troops in the trenches if. the attack hav- Ing failed, 1t is desired to complete the enemy's discomfitc>e by pursuit.
 Ii may be mentioned that this wire is almost invisible by day, and al night it Is impossible to know where to expect it. But with all it's drawbacks, 1t is certainly the most useful of all war in- ventions, and it is equally certain that no army again will ever take the field without a stock of 1t.

 Protection Against Bayonet Charges Now. there are two classes Of wire en- tanglements namely, high and low, and both possess that essential of all tenn porary field forti6cations- simplicity and ease of construction
 High entanglements are most commonly used to protect trenches against bayonet charges. For this purpose stout stakes some five feet long are used They are planted in the ground about six feet apart in rows in front of the trenches which it is desired to shield from assault If time and material permit at least six rows are driven in, and sometimes the stakes are made more secure by being fastened by lengths of wire to holdfasts or pegs. Each stake is then connected to every other stake around it with nu- merous lengths of barbed wire arranged horizontally and diagonally.
 This particular form of entanglement is only used in front of trench or some other form of "cover,' and it is erected within very short range of the attackers objective, so that they are brought to a standstil without shadow of shelter in

Of course, the most elaborate entanglement of wires can be demolished in a very few minutes by men equipped with pliers. But in the face of rapid fire from magazine rifles at practically point-blank range. those few moments would suffice for the annihilation of whole regiments.
 Artillery Fire Has No Effect
 In the days of the old Brown Bess. barbed wire, had 1t existed. would have been much less formidable obstacle. as the pliers would have done their work almost as quickly as the men in the trenches could have performed the te- dious task of ramming home new charge and priming their muskets. The

WHEN OIL WAS STRUCK
Memorial Stands to Credit E, L. Drake.
 Man Who Drilled First We'll

from LeSI1e'S.
 How many Americans recall the name Of Edwin l.. Drake? He was said to have been a conductor on the New Haven railroad 55 years ago. Then he was
 employed at Oil Creek. Pa, to drill q
 well for oil. and on August 27. 1859. his
 work was done, and his well went down
 In history as the first ever drilled for
 oil in the United States.
 But if we have forgotten Drake those
 residing near the scene of his great tri
 umph still remember him with pride. On
 August 27 last Drake Day. was ceIs-
 prated Tn Tltusville with great enth,isi-
 asm, and warm tributes to the memory of the pioneer of Oil Creek were paid
 py oil men throughout the United States
 lhree years ago the Drake Memorial
 museum was founded at Titusville to commemorate the name of Colonel Drake and to collect and preserve the history or the development of petroleum Upon us walls tablets will be placed inscribed with the names of the early pioneers of oil throughout the world. The exnip,,s or the museum will include models of early derricks and machinery of the first OH fieids Of Pennsylvania, and a colIec- uon or lamps and appliances for gen. erating artificial light dating back over 4VV years. The first building of the museum group is now approaching com pietlon. The project is being carried on by individual and company contributors from those interested in the oil indus try.
 Drake's successful completion of +na first oil well recalls the rush to O;I Creek. It was wilder than the rush 10 years prior to California, after the ia nous gold strike. Oil City spranr nm almost overnight, at the mouth of oil creek. The village changed to a busting city and the valley of oil creek was transformed. Derricks took the place of trees, while engines, shacks and fem porary hotels. dotted the ;andscape. The rise in the value of properties was enor- mous.. Farms which sold for $10 an acre were suddenly worth from 5000 to slO. .OoO an acre, and one plot of two acres which had producing we'll sold for half a mil lion dollars. A sterile farm of 50 acres. which had been traded for a yoke of oxen. was bought by speculator for $35OO--and when oil was found upon if it's new owners refused $4.000,00O for 1t.
 In 1861 the first gusher was brought in. Before that oil had been pumped at the rate of IS or 20 barrels a day, but the new gusher threw out thousands of bar rels every 24 hours and swamped the oil market until a barrel of oil could pc bought for as little as 10 cents Wild speculation in oil properties and in the shares of oil companies, genuine and spu- l rious. resulted. Fortunes were made and | lost in a day. This was the early history | or the petroleum industry of the United | States. It is the irony of fate that be- ginning as 1t did in reckless speculation, It was developed into what is generally | conceded to be the most efficient business organization the country has ever known the organization established by MT. John D. Rockefeller and his associates.

Weeks started for Clarion in his aer-

clouds. He finally located a rail-
road track, he followed it and was
soon back in Eagle Grove again.
Weeks says he was travelling along
about 1000 feet high when he ran
into a sheet of water and was en-
tirely blinded for a few minutes. He
could not see any part Of the ma
chine and did not know whether he
was right side up or otherwise.
The engine stopped and the ma
chine started for the ground. Mr..
Weeks got the engine started and the
machine righted up after he got out
of the cloud and was then not more
than 100 feet above the ground.
He then followed the railroad
track and soon found himself over
