There was considerable street gossip
Saturday on the oil situation. Parties
who had visited the well which is be-
ing put down on the Fritz farm south
of Denton claimed that there had been
several buckets of oil drawn from the
well and that the workmen told them
th^t they were at the cap rock, under
which they expected to find the flow,
if any.
Another report was current that evi-
! dent preparatioft-Tiad been made at the
well in way of protecting the inclos-
ure and machinery from the
which seemed to be expected.
These reports caused some
and small trading in the stock

The program for the May Fifth Sun-

There is a haunting svyeetness

Every throb of humarj sorrow

In Hs hopeless, weary grieving, feeling

Feeling deeper than foii wailing; souls
in Stygian caves Night
Wrestling with the imps of Darkness
for a glimmer of pale light.
And one likes the Misjerere; that the

Of all depths of desolation, and afflic-

That win souls to desperation, and to
hbpeless, grievous* sighs,
And that top the lofty climax with their

But with all tht? tribulation, all the or-

All the wretched depths of misery that

Half the source of entertainment that

LUSITANIA’S OFUCERS
F ■ I ■ ---------- r
QUEENSTTOWN, May 8.—Mrs. M. M.
Pappadoulo, a first cabin passenger en
route to Athens, Grwr, started to
swim ashore and went a long distance
before she was picked up. The Cuban
Consul General to Liverpool, another
firts-cahln passenger, swam a Jong time
and climbed into three successive boats,
the first two of which capsized.
Passengers who were brought ashore
■ and who were not too hadly injured to
i walk, refused to remain in thflir rooms,
| hut haunted the dock for hours hoping
! that more boats would arrive, bringing
1 in missing friends and relaivps. Many
1 children were brought ashore whose
parents have been lost.
Lady Makeworth, a prominent suf-
| fragette, floated for hours with a life
| beit about her before she was picked
. up and brought ashore. '
SURVIVORS REWILDERED.
Many of the survivors are ro bcwil-
! dered by their terrible experience that
! their accounts of the sinking of the
Lusitania are not entirely clear, it is
to be noted, however, that all agree in
eulogizing the manner in which the
i ship’ soffieers and crew behaved.
Within five minutes after the Lusitania
I was hit by the second torpedo, the big
I liner had listed to such an extent that
I her life boats on one side coirid not be
i launched at all. The work of getting
1 as many as possible, for the most part
women and children, into the only boats
that could be cleared was at once un-
dertaken by the captain, officers and
men of the Lusitania and performed ef-
ficiently and with heroism.
HEART RENDING SCENES.
The scenes as the big liner went down
are described by the survivors"hs heart-

the passengers called to relatives and

ROOSEVELT DECLARES U. 8. MUST ACT NOW.
SYRACUSE N. Y., May 8.—Theodore Roosevelt, after
learning details of the sinking of the Lusitania late last night,
made this statement:
- j “This represents not merely piracy, but piracy on a vaster
scale of murder than any old-time pirate eVer practiced. This
is the warfare which destroyed Louvain and Dinant and hun-
dreds of men, women and children in Belgium. It is warfare
against innocent men, women and children traveling on the
ocean, an<Y to our fellow country women who are among the
sufferers.
‘‘It seems inconceivable that we can refrain from taking
action in this matter, for we owe it not only to humanity,
but to our own national self-respect.”U’STIN—The body of the twentieth
virtim of the recent tlbod was found,
that of Lloyd Hudlin, a negro. The bod-
ies of George . Whittington and eleven
others are still missing.

On advh'e of Park Expert Kessler,
Dallas has refused to acept two park
ffites. Ttieir upkeep, he decided, would
be worth more than the parks. As a
rtile, the sites offered have one or more
strings and selfish considerations tied
to them. But Denton needs the hegin-
ning of a park system so badly that, so
far as we’re concerned, we’d be willing
to overlook a deal of selfishness and
qUite a few "strings" if some of our !•>
col philanthropists would offer to deed
the elty land for a park. Denton cer-

system and it needs it worse now than
it did ten years ago—with just the same
amount of parks now as then.

A young Woman is demonstrating the
ease with which an automobile engine
Is taken to pieces, and an ^impertinent
reporter asked her what she did when
she hit'her finger with a hammer. “I

Any woman whii sings when she
smashes 'her’thumb with a hammer is
good—if not a good mechanic then a
good citizen. For the lady mechanician
to sing when she makes a mislick and
wounds her tender flebh with an insen-
sate iron tool indicates that she has
self-restraint, and self-restraint is an
excellent quality in mechanics. For her
to swear rather than sing would be- an
indication ttiat she lacked mental poise,

he would choose the |ormter; not alone
