THE DIAMOND VALLEY TEST WELL
Depth Of Seventy Feet Reached in See
ond Well on Tuesday Of This Week

ond Well on Tuesday of This Week
Although last weeks heavy snow
fall seriously interferred with the
work of sinking the test well in Dia-
mond valley. progress is being made
and a depth of 10 feet was reached
on Tuesday of this week. Henry
Wedekind, who is sinking the well.
came into Eureka Wednesday for
some supplies and made this report.
He says that the second well is being
put down about a quarter of a mile
east of the first one sunk, that the
formation in the present well is al
most identical with the first, and that
the two stratas of water encountered
so far were found at about the same
depth as in the first well.
In the first we'll a strong flow of
water was struck in sand at SO feet;
in the present we'll this water was
found at a little less depth and in
coarse gravel, and appears to be
strongly impregnated with sulphur.
On account of the soft condition
of the roads in Diamond valley no
Eurekans have visited the well this
week and nothing is known of the
progress being made since Mr.. Wede-
kinds visit here. But several parties
are planning to auto down there
Sunday if the present good weather
holds, and from now on there should
be frequent reports regarding the
progress and developments disclosed
in the effort being made to tap the
body of underground water or lake
that many believe is being held in
the basin of Diamond valley.

HOTEL LOBBIES
Heaven City

T never had a better time or enjoyed myself more than I did when I was touring the east" said Phil Painter, editor of the Advance, yesterday.
 "The hotel business at Atlantic City is better this year than ever before. The shark scare on the New Jersey coast has not harmed the business in this seashore city, but smaller resorts have been hurt considerable. I guess that the shark scare is a good thing for some of the dare devil swimmers, who used to go miles out in the ocean, and a few of them would never re- turn. It is a seldom thing to see a swimmer beyond the danger lines this season. There has not been a single death caused by drowning at Atlantic City this year.
 Some persons have an idea that the negro visitors have the same privileges as the white patrons, but this is a mistake. The negroes have a place in the shore and do not attempt to enter the white side. I do not know if. there is law against this or not, but the eastern negroes are very peaceful. cannot say anything too good for this heaven city"

OBSCURE GREAT MEN

From the San Francisco Bulletin.
 In one of his published letters James Russell Lowell tells this story of Nathan iel Hawthorne and Franklin Pierce:
 When Pierce had been nominated for the presidency Hawthorne came to see him, sat down by him on a sofa, and after a melancholy silence. heaving a deep sigh, said, Frank, what a pity!' Then, after pause, But, after all, this world was not meant to be happy in-only to suc- ceed in!"
 The point to this anecdote is that it ac- tually was Hawthorne, not Pierce who succeeded. At best, Pierce was a second or thir6-rate President, while Hawthorne was, in his own field, a first-rate liter ary man. Pierce Is a name in history few of us could even place him within his proper presidential years-but Hawthorne is still better company than nine-tenths of the great men of the United States. The great men of our day will also pass, presidents, politicians, presidents and even college football heroes are bound to do. Historical specialists will stir up the dust of history and find traces of them and pass as learned men because they remem- Der them after everybody else has for gotten them. On the other hand, some comparatively obscure poets, musicians and painters, who have not even stated their position on preparedness, may last for century or more. Mark Twain will outwear a regiment of ordinary presi- dents

Democrats Optimistic

Claud Williford of Sheffield, secretary to Col. J. w. Warrington, is at the Tut wiler, and will remain in the city for several days. MT. Williford, who has been in Washington with Colonel Worth ington in the interest of the Muscle Shoals development during the present session of Congress, came to Sheffield last week on personal business.
 Tt has not yet been definitely settled when Congress will adjourn, but the in- dications are now that the session will continue until the fall,' said MT. Willi- ford. "The democrats in Washington are optimistic over the outlook for the elec- ton in November, and they feel much better over the situation that they did a short time ago."
 MT. Williford who operates a hotel at Sheffield, will remain here until the close of the week in order to attend the meet ing of the Alabama Hotel Mems associa- tion.

Heavy Flood Losses

"The losses from the rams and floods in Tuscaloosa county will equal $500, GOO, said w. T. Edmunson, managing editor of the Tuscaloosa News, who passed through the city yesterday returning from Mont somery. More than 50 miles of the Warrior river is located in our county, and in addition there are several other rivers and creeks which did much dam- age. Probably 5000 acres of good land were inundated, and the crops on all this land will be total loss.
 "Of course there will be considerable replanting, and an organized effort is be- ing made in Tuscaloosa to assist the farmers to make some of the crops which can be grown now in order to recoup part of their heavy losses. Despite this blow, however, the people of Tuscaloosa are by no means Respondent, and the city is moving forward with the same progress which has made it one of the most thriv- ing little cities in this section of the coun- try

JOE SEEMS PEEVED

From the Hancock County Qa.) Demo-
 crats 1saEZa
 Several times recently the life of my wife and my own life have been placed in jeopardy by reckless automobilists, selfshly regardless of the safety of no ones life and limb but their own. To all such miserable whelps, I wish to say with all the emphasis which the law will permit me to use in print that l have provided myself with a 48-calibre Colts revolver and have it loaded. When I drive out behind my old family mare and any Kansas City dude or wooden headed resident of this or any other community tries recklessly to run me down, I will to the best of my ability, endeavor to perforate his tires and lis legs. This is no idle threat, as any who tests the matter will find to his sorrow. Things have come to a pretty pass when law abiding. taXpaying cit izen cannot use the highways except at the risk of being killed by some lop- cared lout with a 2X4 brain and a 10X12 gall. l mean business.
