OIL AND GAS DISCOVERED
WITHIN MILE OF TOWN
Water Stands Hundred Feet in "Well

The -Bulletin learns that a well
. just completed on the Morton place In
North Brownwood is producing both
oil and gas. The well was sunk to a
orti nt 1iQ taat nn1 flio U'.itor mid
oil stands 100 feet in the well now
It is kept boiling all the time by the
escaping gas which has a pretty fair
pressure. The drillers can not de
termine just where the oil and gas
was struck as they have encountered
traces o both all the way down from
" the first fifty feet. It is supposed
however that the strongest pocket of
gas was found near the bottom of the
well. The owners of the well have
not yet determined what they will do
with it It is believed that the wel
- would produce considerable oil if the
... water was properly cased off.

He plans not only to supply the de-

IN BOX OF PEACHES
-First Ripe Peaches Placed on Market
Here arc Home Grown and
Well Developed.
The first ripe peaches to go on the
market in Brownwood are homei
grown. They were Taised in C. B.
Heard's orchard in the Jones Chapel
community and are of the Early
Sneed variety a- peach which ripens
the first weeks In May. The peaches;
had not arrived as the Bulletin goes;
to press this afternoon but a tele-
phone message from Mr. Heard says
he-Is sending them in Dy his .daugh-
ter. Robert Louis Stevenson used to re-
late the following amusing story told
him by a South Sea trader: He had
'- been in the habit of carrying all sorts
of tinned meats which the natives
bought with avidity. Each tin was
branded with a colored picture a cow
for beef a sheep for mutton and a
fish for sardines. It happened that the
firm which . furnished the mutton
thought it a good .plan to alter labels
that its goods might be more easily
distinguished from the others. The
. mark chosen was the. figure of a frock
coated Stlggins-lUe individual in a
chimney pot hat. The natives at once
came to the conclusion that the tins
contained potted missionary and
there was a great ruo on the new line
of goods. Ex.

Iteclnnlng of Trouble. J
Francisco I. Madero member of one
or Mexico's wealthiest families was
a candidate fo'r the presidency asalnst
Diaz ihe chief plank of his platform
being anti re-election. In November
1910 Madero was convicted or Incit-
ing the pooplo to rebellion and put
in jail lie escaped into Texas and
called on his followers to join a gen-
eral revolt November 20
Already there had been scattered
disturbances throughout the republic
but tho insurrection took its first def-
inite form on this date. The Madero-
Jsts Issued a manifesto In which they
said tho recent election had been en
forced at the point of tho bayonet
charged Diaz with responsibility for
tho uprising and declared his election
null and void. The principle of non-
election was said to be the supreme

j This manifesto was dated" October f

than a month before it became pub-

'himself provisional president of Mex-
jlco and was formally inaugurated on
j his estate In Coahulla December 1 tho
I same day that Diaz began his eighth
term.
