pied Sections of
Germany.

With the American Army of Oecu-
pation.-Wherever American negroes
have appeared in the area occupied by
the Americans they have attracted
great attention among the civilians.
In Treves, Coblenz and other places,
during the early days of the occupa-
ton, crowds assembled wherever any
negro soldiers stopped in the streets,
and 1t was necessary for the military
police to enforce the orders prohibit
Ing gatherings in the public thorough
fares. Even yet in Coblenz and Treves,
where there are number of negro
soldiers, the negroes attract crowds of
German children every time they ap-
pear in the streets.
The German soldier also regards the
negro with great curiosity. According
to discharged German soldier in
Rengsdorf, the German army. early In
the war, offered a reward of 400
marks for the capture alive of each
negro. The discharged German soldier
said that throughout the war German
soldiers lived in great fear, and even
terror, of the negroes, and 1t was in
order to overcome this fear that re-
wards were offered.
One evening on the front scouting
party, consisting of ten Germans, in
GLIDING the discharged soldier, encoun-
tered two French negroes. In fight
which followed one Of the negroes es-
capped, the other being taken prisoner.
In the fight two of the Germans left
their comrades and ran to the protec-
tion of their own trenches, but these,
it was explained, were young soldiers
and unframed. The reward of 400
marks subsequently was divided
among the remaining six Germans for
capturing the French negro.

SEWARD OIL & GAS CO.,
SELLING SOME STOCK

The Democrat is informed that
the work of selling the stock in
the Seward County Oil & Gas Com
pany is well under way and many
are buying the stock.
Owing to the rush of business a
real concerted effort has not as
yet been made to dispose of the
stock but plans are under way
whereby a real stock-selling cam
paign will be inaugurated.
There is every reason why local
people should take this stock. This
country must be developed and the
sooner the better. Every farmer
business man and the citizens in gen.
eral should take an interest in the
proposition. and not only buy "a
block of stock, but boost the propo.
sition.
If oil is found here it will moi
only be the stockholder who will
be benefited, but every man in
town and country, but there can be
no delevopment unless there is in
vestment.
Don't wait for someone to drag
you into the company. Hunt up
those who are selling and slap them
on the back and say right out so
everyone can hear, "I want five
hundred or a thousand dollars worth
of the stock" Be a booster. Just
because this is home company
with no big, high sounding litera-
ture is no reason for believing there
is no oil here, and as every member
Af =.
can trust is only a good argument
for buying.
LOTS have a test north of town
and that right away. Why wait
three or four years to find out Let's
do it right now and right here,
where we live and have our bust
ness and own our property.
Buy some stock.

CITY WELL MAKING A
GOOD SHOWING AT $40 FEET
Contractor, Believes he has Suffiei-
ent Volume to Meet Re-
quirements.

The new water we'll being drilled
by the city is down 80 feet. That
is the 10-inch hole is down that
far, and the hole is being reamed
out to the 1S-inch diameter.
The roaming will be done to a
depth of 293 feet at which depth
the contractor believes he has plenty
of water to make good on his guar
antee.
AS soon as the roaming is finish
ed pump will be placed in the
well and test made. If the flow
is not sufficient the drill will be
replaced and driven to a greater
depth.
The contractor has agreed to
furnish certain volume of water
and it is up to him to produce it.
He is of the opinion, from his ex-
perience in this section. that he has
reached the strata from which
an ample flow is secured.
There is a disposition on the
part of some of the city dads to
have a second well the same size
made when this one proves sue
cessful. Their reason for this is
that by having the rig already on
the ground the second we'll could be
drilled cheaper than the first, and
then there would not be a doubt as
to the water supply for years to
come at least.
After the experience of the pres
ent summer and the growth Lib.
eral promises to make the coming
year it might be an excellent idea
to make the additional provision
for the future.
The test will be made in about
a week and if the well is accepted
it will be but short time until
the pump is placed and the water
turned into the mains.

enjoy a week or so at the expense
of the company. Theatres are
chartered, daily newspapers printed
and other entertainment is carried
on in like manner.

thing yet. While the fellows really
go for a good time there is a gen,

helpful to the men attending.
