BURNING GdSUKK PUT OUT

Jennings; La. July 21. --The tire
that had been raging at the Jen-
I ninKs 0d fieIl for six days and
fnights was extinguished ! his after
noon. The fire has all ihe time
bpen confined to the Jennings Oil
Company's well and has burned
fiercely. Soon after the com-
mencement of tin- fire pi eparations
for its extinguishment were com-
menced and these resulted in the
overcoming of the fire today.
A batterv of nine boilers of
thirty hor.-e power each had. beiM)
connected with the two four-inch
pipes and these with six streams
of water wnie all turned upon the
fire at once. The result was the
complete drowning out of ' the
flames in lts than ten minutes.
A thousand barrels' of chemicals
that had been prepaied were not
brought into use.
When the tixe was out a new
gate valve was substituted for the
buruingone and tfmwel I was open-
ed for a few moments during
which time it sent a stream uf oil
at least 200 feet into the air prov-
iug beyond-any doubt that the
value of the'well was not injured
by the continued fire. The put-
ting out of the fire was an expen-
sive operation costing almost $20-
000. The loss from oil wasted
will also reach a large sum.
MARVELS OF OYSTER BAY
Here Depicted By a Genje Satirist
From a Wag
Oyster Bay JuLT 14. -Come
the telegraph office. What is he
saying? "Queutin has thrown his
father over the fence!" It will be
told to New York in red ink on the
fudge page
But stay another man halt3 him !
He too has news that is worthy
or the colored inks xes it is as
we feared. The President has
changed his policy. This morniug
it seems he used sand Sndspolio
in -the bath. He tubbed this after-
noon with Spare's.
"He can't float it" cries the in-
dignant statesman.
Here is the private lane of the
Roosevelt estate. History is 'mak-
ing under that roof beneath the
shade of these trees and from the
float near tli2"bathhonse hard by.
Where will the great Littlefield
conference be held in August
month! On the Sound? Mostly
Will Mr. Littlefield be taking a
bath? Hardly. Octdpi run close
to shore in these waters. He will
need all his arms and legs for ges-
tures in next Congress.
Observe that tree Standing
1
beneath it we are told the Presi-
dent told Secretary Koot the best
bait for gnbblechnbs. Is the Octo-
pus a fry or a broiler? We rnnst
wait for the next annual report of
the Secretary of War.
t The children have found a new:
game to play on the barn top. That
flying man with-a camera stream-
ing behind him has learned the
name too and soon the cables will
be warm with it. "Fryiug the
Friars" is played with a lukewarm -ejig
and a dnli thimble. xlt is a del-
icate game.
Behind the bushes over there
the President told Senator Mc-
Launu who will get the dead manTs
times in the Court of Claims. The
Seuator has small feet yet they
can be stepped on.
Seven fat-jobs are growing over
in the garden. That is the Panama
canal commission plant. Will our.
friend Jones pluck one? He may
if he will make the secret pact with
the President demands. He must
vote to retire the Panama hat from .
the fashion hook next summer.
That is the main purpose of the
Panama commission.
This is Secretary Cortalyou cora-
iug over the grass. He has come
out to talk to the reporters. Has
Kirmit flung the groom into the
sky? Does the cook use yeast or
baking powder? Is the sugar which
the President feeds the saddler
Bleisteiu beet cane or bogus?
Who sleeps in the oyster beds?
The man wringing his hands be-
hiud the hedge is a photographer.
He did uot catch the President in
bathing. The will iam Gillette is
showing him the return route.
How thoughtless of the Presi-
dent to play tennis when there-is
a postmaster to be named in Four
Bears? Does he know that a Chi-
nese laundry trust has advanced
the price on pleated shirts right
here in Oyster Bay ! Do pleats
plead in vain?
Yon forget that he is booked to
speak at three New England fairs-
ou his next trip a fearsome trial
which calls for a study of hege-
monic things.
Let us leave him alone with the
synonyms. Another day we may
return to calculate how many tucks
make a blouse for Archie. New:
York Sun.
KNEW WHO LIVED IN
THE HONEYMOON. .
New York World.
The little daughter of a promi-
nent Western Senator has been at-
tending school in Washington dur-
ing the past winter and her proud
father mother and a number ot
friends went there on the day of
the closing of tho school to listenf
to the examination.
The teacher asked the class i
the moon was inhabited. The Sen-
ator's little daughter who was
sitting in the front row wriggled
about and raised her hand. Think-
ing to please the fond parents the
teacher asked her.
"Yes'ni. One moon is" answer-
ed the child.- "I don't know about
the other."
"Well my dear which moon is
inhabited?" asked the teacher.
"Theboneymoon" answered '
the child. "It is inhabited by my
aunt and my new uncle John."
