According to the story being related
by a couple of drillers who have been at
work in the vicinity of Giaderun, a
suburb of Warren, that village recontly
had a narrow escape from being swal
lowed alive by a terrible earthquake. It
is reported that the top of one of the
large hills In that vicinity baa opened up
a crevice three feet wide and a mile in
length with apparently unlimited depth
has been discovered. Residents of the
village report that they have experienced
no "shock" and the story probably
originated from the fertile braius of the
drillers. It sounds very much like the
yarns the late ' Gib" Morgan used to tell,
aud old oil men will notice this fact.

mev nan a jurist on tne pencti wbo
ranked with the best in the State, and
were congratulating themselves that for
tbe next eight or nine veaas to come tbe
judiciary of this district would be in safe
ana able hands.
