Wright, of Des Moines, who delivers the annual AlumiM address, :s one of the forernobi citizens cf Iowa as well as of tho country. He is an ex-Senator of the United States, a Professor of Law in the University of Iowa, and last year as President of the National Bar Association delivered the annual address at Saratoga, N. Y. Judge Wright was born and raised in Bloomington, is a brother of Jos. A. WrighCat one time Governor of Indiana'and Minister Plenipotentiary to Berlin. The citizens of liloomington feel that they, as well as Iowa, have elaim on this distinguished gentleman and the University a share in the eminence he has attained. His life may will serve as an example and incentive to the graduates who leave the halls of Indiana University in 1889. Judge Wright will doubtless be greeted with a large audience at the Methodist church on the occasion of his address, Tuesday, June 1 1 tli at 10:30 A. M.
The following are the names of
those who are certainly expected to be present at the reunion of the class of '12: Clark, Cobb, Cooper and family, Cravens, Curaraings, Erving and wife, Hale, Mrs. Minnie Hanneman James, Heiner, Lilly and wife, Nave and wife and Ogg and wife. For a class that has been out of college 17 years this shows unusual loyalty and patriotism. The class of which holds its five-year reunion this year, has 21 members. Two are dead, one is in South Amercia, two are in the far west and some will be kept away by one or another emergency. But the per cent, of attendance will be as large perhaps as in the case of any class so far. The following are expected to be present: Miss Prudence Arnott, J. R. Beckot, O.E. Bradfute, W. J. Bryan, H. B. Burnett, P. KBuskirk, S. H. Conger, O. L. Kelso, F. M. McCoy, J. B. Miller, S. G. Ramsav, W. A. Rawles, I. C. Stewart and T. W. Wilson. Of these Messrs. Conger, Kelso and Miller aie married.
jBoom tho .Town. The gas well was shot with 75 pounds of dynamite yesteiday at 3 o'clock. The well is 86 feet deep and when the dynamite exploded it was scarcely noticeable about the well, though the shock could be distinctly heard in different parts of the city. After the shooting tire was applied and gas ignited, which burns up from o to 5 feot, making a steady fire. Tho pressure is so strong below that this amount of gtirf is forced through 850 feet of water, as the gas can be heard coming through the water from the top )i" the well. This settles the fact that there is gas, but the question i, can tho water be biped away. Pi )o has been
ordered and this remecy will bo applied in the next few days. In the i
mean while doom thh town! The prospects lor natural gas are not so flattering as at the time of going to press last Thursday. As stated then, when fire was applied at the top of the well, the gas burned up three or four feet high in considerable quantity. However, Friday morning when the work of pumping out the water was started, after an hour's effort it was discovered that it did not lower any, and that if the water was t be kept out piping the well would be necessary. Work was stopped and it is probable the well will now be "shot" with dynamite, then piped down to within a few feet of the bottom, when it is hoped the gas will find its way out. That gas bus been found there is no doubt. Now the question is, can it be secured iif sufficient quantity and can the water be piped away. If this well failts another effort in a different place will be made at once.

Salem has organized a Hoard of Trade and is inviting the neighboring cities to come and see her gas well which, contrary to all report., is a great success. Last Wednesday an invitation was sent to Bedford and was accepted by about 40 citizens. Salem's business men
mit the company at the depot in 5
carriages, funished an excellent supper and then took the visitors out to the wells. After a personal inbptciicn the Bedford Mail says: "The full presure from this well is about 260 pounds, more than twice that carried by the big mogul locomotives. The pressure was actualiv so strong that it blew out the tiarae when turned on full. This sounds paradoxical, but is true. The gas escaped from the pipe faster than it could ignite, and as often as kindled the flame was forced some 25 feet above the orifice and expired. With a large pipe the full volume of flame could have been shown. As it was the Bedford people were convinced. Next the Persise well, which has recently been sunk, -was visitwd. It is between 700 and 800 feet deep, and lids a pressure of 225 pounds. A pipe connected with it was lighted, but was not so situated that the fall pressure could be turned on."
The demand for atone on the line of the L., N. A. & C. is so great that management thiuk by the middle of next month the shipments of stone over their line will reach 150 cars a day.
