 ITSELF SOMETIMES
(Saturday Evening Post

Fortune is sometimes literally forced upon people. $. l.. Fowler the cattle man and wheat farmer, who brought in the discovery well at Burkburnett, formed company of his own and sold stock to numbers of his friends and ac- quaintances to drill the first well. Though reputed to be fairly well to- do, with the distinction of having shipped the first carload of cattle from the new town seven years ago, MT. Fowler did not have an easy job of it in selling stock. It is common report that one merchant from whom he attempted to extract a couple of hundred dollars stoutly resisted the blandishments of promised oil
 q don't want it. the storekeeper kept repeating.
 Well, I'll put you down for it any, way. I've traded with you a long time" is the fashion in which the whole community records Fowler's re ply. Shortly thereafter the disgusted merchant went east, and while there he received a telegram offering him sS0.- 600 for his share. His attitude toward oil has changed. Generally speaking those who invested $100 with Fowler last summer have paid out, -,sr been able to pay out, for sl5,0oo. .Eza N

FAST FRENCH TRAIN
 BEATEN BY CADILLAC

When Colonel Thornwell Mullaly. of the California Grizzlies, went from Bordeaux to Paris one night, he prob ably knew that he was travelling ra1her last in the government Cadillac.
 But he probably did not know that the Cadillac was easily trimming the fastest train in France, the Bordeaux to-Paris Express. Bordeaux is 400 miles southeast of Paris. The train leaves there at 6 in the evening and arrives in Paris at the next morning.

FOR THIRTY-FIVE HOMES IN NEWCASTLE

The contract price for the houses runs
from $1,000 to $4,000, beside the cost of the
lot, and this represents as low a figure as
five-room houses can be built, even when con-
structed in quantities and under the most
favorable circumstance Four years ago the
houses could have been built for 81 500 each.
All the foundations were let to the Min
nick Construction company. The main car
penter contract, including flues and plaster
ing, went to Syphers & Langston, and repre-
sented about two-thirds of the $4,000. The
tin work was awarded to Frank Michaels !;
the painting to Peyton Bros; the plumbing
and gas fitting to Sam Stewart and the cleo
trical work to Isenhour. Work on the con-
tracts must be started Immediately and con-
