M4NATURE GEYSER
STARTS AT ALBLNY
The Albany Herald of last night tells
about a miniature geyser that wa> dis
covered, or manufactured, up there lait
week.
A well was beiog bored for the pur-'
pose of draining a pond In the edge of
Albany. After the well had been sunk
ton con Adorable depth the water of the
pond was turned into it. The pond
ran off freely until moot of it was gone.
Suddenly without any warning what
ever, except a rumbling noise, a water
spout went up from the well. The 'first
spout rose to the height of ten feet
above the ground.
Eruptione occurred at irregular in
tervals for several hoars each one rising
higher than tbe preceding, until a stream
of water was shot into the air at least
•0 feet.
Gradually the dieturbance subsided,
and today, tbe drainage well is of the
plain ordinary kind.
The cause ot the unusual phenomenon
is supposed to be compressed aia. The
intake of drainage' water had the effect
of compressing some sub terraneous air,
chamber to the exploding point

The largest audience that has yet oi
sembled crowded around the big plat
form w here a spiendi I vaudeville-and
black face entertainment was condnct
el, the opening concert by the minstrels
being no small feature of the prog-am,
As the entertainment program neared
the finish it seemed that the crowd grew
larger instead of diminishing, until
when the lecturers were ready to begin
a perfect sea of faces' greeted them.
Saturday was the second Saturday of
the stay of Colonel Dillingham, and It
is notable that the crowns have grown
larger with each succeeding night, and
the further fact is noted that the sole*
of hie wonderful medicines have increas
ed in proportion to the crowds. Bator-
dsy bight dozens of people applied for
the medicine who bad heard of the ex
peri*nee of their uelgbbon who had given
It n fair trial, and the experience is the
same at- mark the. operations of this
great advertiser wherever he gore.

man told Colonel Dillingham that the
hod been materially helped by the ate
ot Plant Juice in three dsye, and she
is confident its use will effect n perma

Tlie entertainment provided by the
