VAGARlES OF TIDE MANY
Mysterious Currents. the Secret OF
which No One Has solved.

There are as many vagaries In tho
waters as in the winds. Why, for in
stance. should great ocean currents
send thclr warl waters across the
wide Pacific and Atlantic? other and
equally mysterious currents exist In
well night all parts OF the world
II is ON rScord that the sea has run
for weeks out of the Java sea, thru
the strait of Sunda and thence back
again for the like period without any
perceptlble rise and fall during thosn
times.
Then there is the equatorial current
that flows into the Caribbean sea, the
ever flowing current To the eastward
around cape Horn. the cold stream
flowing from the icy regions OF the
north past Newfoundland and Nova
Scotia and along the American coast
10 the extreme end of Florida, the
continual current running with n We
lCcity OF from four to five knots an
-Four thru the strait of Glbralter into
the Mediterranean sea, the swift cur
rent running across the rocks and
shoals off the md of Billion island
" hich apparently starts from no
where aud ends somewhere In the
vicinity Of the same place. and the
current which, starting half way up
the China sea, runs from two 70
three knots an hour to the northeast
and finally ends abruptly off the
north end of Luzon.
Then We have those tidal vagaries
known the world over as bores. Those
that run up the Hugh and Irawadi
rivers, from side to side, till they reach
their limit, often tearing the ships
from their anchorage, originate no
body knows where or why.
At Singapore II has been observed
for days AT time that there has been
tut one rise and fall In the twenty

BRISTOW. okla. Nov. 9.-Farmers
in this part of Creek county are com
planning that they are much in need
of rain. The fall planting of wheat
has been much delayed and then the
roads are being cut up very much on
account OF the dry weather. The
farmers who had decided on planting
good acreage of wheat claim that
the ground is so dry that they cannot
plow 1t and If the ground was even
broken 1t is too dry to sprout the
wheat. There has already been some
wheat sown but not much and what Is
in the ground has as yet not sprouted

that has been coming in has damaged

FIRE DEPARTMENT HAS
KEPT PACE WITH CITY
Municipal Organization Was
Created Twelve Years Ago;
Chief Alder Remains.

The Tulsa fire department and
Chief Alder this week celebrated
their twelfth anniversary as guardians
of Tulsa's property interests-now
grown to a valuation approXimating
$4,000, 900.
Quite a difference from the day
back in November, 1905, when the de-
partment began. Tulsa was then a
small town of about four thousand
inhabitants and its property valuation
was scarcely over a million.
Chief Alder is the only member of
the original force. All the others
have resigned and entered other call
ings or died. The chief only is left of
the little band of four men, VINO
opened Tulsa's first fire station down
on Archer street, between Main and
Boston. He has lost but few days
during all that time and today pre-
sides over department that employs
81 men and has five different sta
tions, with the most modern and up
to-date fire-fighting facilities. valued
at many thousands of dollars.
Few cities in the country can boast
of as complete and efficient fire
fighting system as Tulsa. The de-
partment has kept step with the phe-
nomenal growth Of the city. 1t owns
nine modern auto trucks and engines,
besides ample facilities of every kind
needed.
Chief Alder has lost several Of his
fire laddies during his service with
the fire department-brave young
men who gave thei: lives to the city
in the discharge of duty. His face
saddened yesterday as he recalled
them and particularly the two last
who met death-Ross Sheppard and
Ben Hanes, who lost their lives in
the recent disastrous South Nam
street fire that destroyed the Tulsa
