A Graphic Account of tho Scenes Bound

About OrawfordBville's Gad Reserve, Siir.uiDAX, Oct. 22.•- -Having met A. F. liiimsay in the Union Station at I11dianapoliR, and having accepted his invitation to attend the inaugural ceremonies of the l'irst Crawfordsville gusher Tin: .JonuNAL correspondent turned up at. Sheridan about 1 o'clock this afternoon. Successfully resisting tho entreaties of two ragged youngsters, both of whom represented "the best hotel in the city," wo found Mr. Frank Coby tho large d'affaires at this end of the lino who was in waiting with a carriage. Passing through the business and resident portion of tho town which is kept nioelv and looks not so dead as most towns of 1,000 people, we drove north about a half a mile, and then turned east on a gravel road on which are situated three of Crawfordsville's wolis. A fourth derrick on "rog," as it is called here, has just been put up in tho woods a mile north of tho road. Tho lirst well wo came to was tho one that was expected to gush, but tlie tool had only a few minutes before broken off, and consequently tho gusher was delayed several hours But there was unmistakable evidenco of gas. You could smell it,and by putting your hand over tho hole feel it coming out in puffs like the smoke of loco notive. The well was 1,051 feet deep, and seven feet into Trenton rock.

About six feet more and the operator said I10 would have a strong (low with a pressure of at least 300 pounds to tho square inch. Tho other two wells further up th: road at a distanco of about a mile apart were each 450 feet deeji. At one of them tho boss said he would get gas by a week from Saturday. There aro two contractors at work, Churchill and St. John. They aro to dig seven wells between them, but as the former lias three derricks up, one well practically done and another under way, while the latter has but 0110 well only half done, Churchill will doubtless make tho most- money out of the deal.

Mr. Coby showed us a map of the gas region near Sheridan with the territory leased for the Crawfordsville company shaded in green. There was a decided greenish tinge about that 11 ap, for urder the management of Mr. Coby several thonsands acres of the best gas land in the lleld have come under the Crawfordsville company's control. It all lies east, of Sheridan and a little to the north. This makes tho piping distance a little greater but it also makes gas surer than if experiments were tried further west. There is only ono well west of Sheridan as yet, but. in all probability tho Crawfordsville conip. ny will do some dr lling over there after they are sure of enough gas to supply their consumers this winter. Tho only other company which has wells in this region is the ono at Lebanon. Frankfort has no well here bul does not use it much, as it was drilled before gas was found at Kempton.

Mr. Coby, who camo here last June from Pennsylvania, is, as the drive" of our vehicle told 1110 later, "a slick man." He oversees the drilling, hires men to work in tho trenches, but most important does that delicate work of leasing territory. Gas territory leases have a very uncertain market value, ranging in price from nothing up to $100 per well. This wide range is due somewhat to the location of tho land whether it is in the neigh borliood of a good guEher or over 011 the edge where no wells have been dug, but much more to ability of tho man after gnu to make a good impression on the farmer and give him the right kind of talk. Some grangers will give a com pany the privilege of drilling on their land for tlio right to have three fires and a lawn burner (being an upright piece of gas pijjo eight feet high, used to light the front yard) while others with an exaggerated idea of tho value of a lease demand a prico that is out of sight.

As much as $100 a well has been paid but the average price is $50. Natural gas has increased the value of farm land in this field to almost double its former worth. Ex-State Superintendent of Public Instruction LaFolletto holds a farm here whiej ho asks §150 an acre for but tlii* is an exceptional c.ise. In Sheridan the increase has been about the same and the population has increased considerably also, but it is bv no means a boomed town and no large factories have been started.

An unusual sight is a lino of pipo lying right 011 lop of tho grounu along the roadsido. It is only an inch in diameter, yet it supplies fuel for tho engines at all of the derricks and twentvlivo families along tho road.

Mr. Ramsey is of tho opinion that seven wells will bo amply sufficient for all tho consumers ulong the line. Ho estimates that there will bo 3,000 fires (not consumers) in Crawfordsville and about 1,500 tires outside. Farmers who use the gas will have to bear all tho expense of the piping to their homes and Montgomery county farmers will pay Crawforusville prices, whilo those in Boone county will pay Thorntown prices. Tho company has made no arrangements yet with tho town trustees of

4l)arlington

or Thorntown but 110

trouble is anticipated. In these two places the company expects to do private and street lighting alBo. in regard to metors Mr. Ramsay says they will not bo used simply because they cost too much. Ho estimates that with their use the pouplo would burn about one third less gas and it would also cost them some loss. Natural gas companies,Jt has been stated, are as a rule so regulated that tho investors will get all their money back in about three years. This is because of tho uncertainty of the supply and the certainty of largo loss if tho supply should cease, but Mr. Ramsay states that tho People's Natural Gas Company iB not expected to pay back all of tho investment before ton years. Tho first dividends will be declared next spring. A. A. M.

Since this was written the drillers wont, eight feet deeper, and withdrew their drills, to find that they had a gusher. Tho noise of tho escaping gas is as tho rush of mighty waters. It. will bo packed and all saved. A. A. M.

Dr. E. R. Lewis Inciting an Insurrection In St,i Paul's Episcopal Church of Indianapolis.

When Dr. E. R. Lewis resigned tho iuir of chemistry in Wabash college id removed to Indianapolis three years igo ho was as staunch a Presbyterian is John Calvin or even Dr. Patlon, of Princeton, would have cared to meet. Somehow or other, th»ugh, after the genial Doctor became domiciled in the Capital city, ho decided to change his church ailiiliations and not so very loug ago withdrew his letter from tho Presbyterian church and became a member of •St. Paul's Episcopal church. Now, the goodly people of St.. Paul's church coiiidered him quite an acquisition and niiled most benignly as they hastened to make him a momber of tho ancient and honorable order of vestrymen. This suited Dr. Lewis all right and being naturally of a puguacious temperment he proceeded at once to lock horns with

Mr. Jenckes—not Capt. Jonckes of the horse marines, but tho Right Rev. J. S. Jenckcs, LL. D., Dean of the Central Deanery of Indiana and Rector of St. Paul's church. Tho difference between the doctor of medicineB ani. the doctor of laws is simply a difference of degree. Dr. Lewis, when he changed churches transferred his radicality as well. St. Paul's is distinctly "low church" and so is Dr. Jenckos and most of the membership. Dr. Lewis had not long been vestryman, howovor bofore he organized the scattered "high church" people and began to take steps toward making St. Paul's "high church." Astonished by his presumption Dr. Jenckos and his "low church" followers at first held up their hands in holy horror and then began to strugglo gallantly against tho inroads of tho revolutionary doctor. The contest is now in full blast and Dr. Lewis is making a gallant fight under the banner of tho high church. He seems to bo out-numbered, however, and thus far has succeeded only in stirring up as mnch of a mess as tho unfortunate individual in tho comic play, who in a luckless hour stepped on the "ilea in the hair of tho tail of tho dog of the child of tho wife of the wild man of Borneo." Dr. Lewis is still hnnging out defiantly for tho high church and being treasurer of S Paul's, he wields no mean influence. He is becoming somewhat discouraged, however, and recently stated that ho would probably return to the Presbyterian church in the course Of time, especially as ho had lost patience in.Dr. Jenckes' declaration to the effect that tho world wonld come to an end in ten yoars. With a man of Dr. Lewis' push and determination on his track tho only wondor is that tho good Dr. Jenckes did not set the Great Day at much earlier period than ten jours. Tho controversy nov: in progress probably explains Dr. Jenckes' hallucination. In fact you find a reason for everything if you only go to the bottom of things.
