 When she was married to Washing ton, Mrs. Custis had two children sur viving of the four of which she had been the mother. To these two chil 'dren, Washington, who had none oi his own, was devoted father. Later in life these children died and Wash ington adopted two of Mrs. Washing tons grandchildren.
 Mrs. Washington's faith in the wis dom and frmness of her husband's s patriotic course preceding and during the Revolution never failed.
 She had discovered the greatness of her husband long before the people that were so signally to honor him had found it out in all it's splendid pro- portions.
 During the war Washington visited Mount Vernon only twice, but Mrs Washington was with him in New York and Philadelphia and joined him in camp whenever it was possible.
 In the years following their mar. riage and previous to the Revolution the Washingtons lived in Virginia after the style of the English aristoc racy, but throughout the war Mrs Washington was wont to "set an ex

The reported discovery of petrol ium of a high grade which was pub lished in the Era last week is being substantiated by visitors to the field during the past few days, says the Globe Record.
 Of the interested parties O. A. Der ry, the veteran oil well driller return ed from Roosevelt last evening and stated that the gas escaping from the cap on the casing is of sufficient vol ume to burst into flame when ignited.
 Much scepticism has been express ed over the statement that a volume of oil had been found in the casing without the aid of drill tools. Many instances of this nature are known and as matter of fact, one of the greatest wells in oil history came in- to flow while the workmen were at lunch. We'll informed men do not consider the report of the recent dis Icovery as a phenomena but as poSS- ibility of the release of the oil shale that has bled from a crevasSe in the cap rock. Further drilling will doubt less pupncture this cap and release the main body.
