Parti* Boring For Oil Strike a Vein of Water.

VERY REMARKABLE ROARER.

A Six-Inch Stream of Water Being Thrown One Hundred and Thirty Feet High and Threatens to Submerge the 'Neighborhood—Various Other Happenings Within the State's Uorders.

INDIANAPOLIS, April 24.—A well drilled in the northeast corner of Hamilton county, near Sheridan, last Thursday, in quest of gas or oil, has resulted in the development of a remarkable water geyser.

At a depth of 900 feet the drill apparently dropped through a crust of the rock, and a rush of water followed that submerged the derrick and drove away the workmen.

The drill was finally removed, which gave the water an unobstructed vent, and ever since it has been escaping at a rate that threatened to submerge the neighborhood. The water escapes through a G-inch pipe and is thrown 130 feet high. The roar can be heard a mile.

UNRULY PRISONER.

Desperate Encounter in a Jail With a Condemned Convict.

JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind., April 24.— George Willis, who was sentenced Monday evening to two years in the penitentiary for harboring thieves, made a murderous assault Monday night on Clarence Berry, one of his pals in the jail, with a coal shovel.

Had it not been for sheriff Pratt, Berry would no doubt have been killed. Berry is the one who "peached" on Willis, and it was his testimony that sent him over the road.

Willis also assaulted Mrs. Calhoun, and he was only prevented from killing her by the timely interference of the sheriff.

Colored Convicts Fight.

JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind., April24.—Two colored convicts, Jackson and Tuller, engaged in a desperate fight in the Indiana state prison south here yesterday. Jackson was cut across the abdomen, back and arms. The men have been enemies for some time, and as Jackson's term was about to expire Tuller took advantage of the opportunity to murderously assault him. As the men were marching to breakfast Tuller applied an epithet to Jackson, and instantly they came to blows. Dr. Peyton, the prison physician, can not determine how seriously Jackson is cut, but considers his condition very serious.

Lucky to lie Alive.

MTJNCIH, Ind., April 24.—Yesterday morning the pMioe found Frank Sharp, 20, of Indianapolis, lying in the ditch along the Big Four railroad, just west the city. He was brought to the city hospital. At noon, when he recovered consciousness, he gave his name and stated that he went to sleep on a flatcar after leaving Anderson Monday night, en route from Indianapolis to Union City. He likely rolled oft' while asleep, and is lucky to be alive. He is injured internally and may not recover.

All Owned by One Man Now.

INDIANAPOLIS, April 24.—A deal was closed here yesterday by which the Atlas engine works, one of the largest concerns of the kind in the country, located in this city, goes entirely into the control of Mr. Hugh Hanna, one of the partners who already owned one-half interest. The plant is appraised at $600,000, and it is understood that Mr. Huuna paid to the retiring partners, Messrs. Charles and Jesse 1'letcher, $300,000 for their interests.

Killed His Son-iiiLiaw iu Self-Defense.

LAPORTE, Ind., April 24.—The grand jury yesterday discharged Jacob Ott, who was held in custody for the alleged murder of Henery Fahrenlieim, his son-in-law. The evidence introduced clearly established a case of self-defense. Fahrenlieim, it is said, would have killed his wife but for interference by Ott, who dealt the crazed husband a blow with his list which killed him.

Was Not Murder.

COLUMBUS, Ind., April 24.—The sheriff of this county at 10 o'clock yesterday morning received a telegram from J. M. Holmes, sheriff of Jackson county, stating that he had in charge Orian Long, the missing boy whose father is now in jail for murdering him. The father will be released, but will be prosecuted by his wife for cruel treatment.

An Oil Gusher Struck.

PORTLAND, Ind., April 24.—The report has just reached here that a monster oil well has been shot 10 miles northwest of this city. The oil spouted twice the height of the derrick, and continued to flow above it for some time. The well is on the White farm and there are many other good ones near it.

Crushed to Death.

NEW ALBANY, Ind., April 24.—Car Inspector Charles Smith of the Air Line road was killed last night in the yards in this city. He was caught between the bumpers of two cars and terribly crashed. He was 38 years old and leaves a wife and one child.

Fear Foul I'lay.

COLUMBUS, Ind., April 24.—John Hudson, a farmer of Brown county, started to a neighbor's house on Friday last and ha% since been missing. Friends fear foul play.

COAL BARGES SUNK.

An Accident on the Ohio Blver Entailing a Loai of 930,000.

KENOVA, W. Va., April 24.—In a heavy fog about 11 o'clock at night the towboat Onward, from Pittsburg for Cincinnati, with 18 barges of coal, struck a channel pier of the Norfolk and Western bridge on the West Virginia side, sinking three barges.

The I. N. Bunton No. 2. following. irom riwsourg no cancmnaci, wicn 14 barge's of coal, struck the same pier a few minutes after, sinking or losing 10 barges. The barges drifting on down the river broke 16 rafts of logs loose on Virginia Poait, opposite Catlettsburg, andl4furtl on down the stream.

The barges contained 180,000 bushels of coal and the loss will amount to about 130,000. aev.t

Irrigation Farming.

This is simply another name for easy farming. Expending a given amount of labor on a small area gives large craps as the result. It is almost play farming. Indeed in many cases a man's children attended to the irrigating for him. They have their play and it is really work for the father.^There is something attractive in the idea.

Then too it means absolute^independence from rain and drought. Rain docs not drown out crops one year and the drought dry them up tne next. There is a fascination in guiding the little rivulets of water over the small farm, that each spot receives the requisite amount of moisture. One spot must not receive too much nor another too little. One of the strong points of irrigation is that it produces concentration of labor on a limited area and therefore secures thorough cultivation of the ground.
