1 DAILY PAGE TWO. Of going MAKING IT VERY UNPLEASANT FOR STANDARD OIL. Kama Jack of All Trades, Poor, Grim and With No Sense of Humor. Tlic iiihii who begun all Lin Kalman trouble for the Standard Oil comimny is William KM ley Connelley of Cha-nut- e, school teacher, historian and business men from necessity. There had been efforts last summer to organise the oil men In Kansas effectively, but somehow or other the Standard always managed to obtain control of the meetings, so that the purpose fell short, says the Chicago Tribune. After the election In November, though the party was pledged to do something for the oil and gas Industries, the oil men were hb completely demoralised as a stampeded herd of steers. They were leaderless, unorganised, and the industry waa prostrate at the feet of the Standard OH company. Few producers dared express the hope of relief from the legislature, and those hardy enough to do so were laughed at. Everything whs chaos, and so satisfactory was the situation to the Standard that It was said not to be necessary to maintain a lobby at Topeka this winter except as a matter of form. Along in December, Connelley, on the streets of iT'eru, one of the smaller oil towns In the extreme southern end of the state, met H. EL West, the largest Indlvldaul operator in the state. Let us have a meeting of the oil men around here and find out what we want the legislature to do for us." Connelley said. Well, we can at least tell them what this particular district wants," answered Connelley, and we might get some of the other boys started." So they agreed to call a meeting of the operators around Peru. The meet' were Resolutions .Ing was called. on men all oil of the the passed calling state to meet at Topeka in January and organise a state association. The Topeka meeting was heid, the state association formed, presented Its demands to the legislature, and the world knows the result. This man Connelley haa been a lighter al his life, and when he was lit some not engaged crusade himself he has been studying the lives and. ways and writing memoirs of other crusaders. John Hrown u one of hla ideal heroes. Bom In Johnson county, Kentucky, In 1855, he has been poor all hU life. Ills greatgrandfather was a. North Carolinian, a soldier of the Revolution, and was pro moted till he came out of the service at the end of seven years a captain, Congress gave him a grant over In eastern Kentucky, tn the shadow of the there he Cumberland mountains, and moved his family, there his descendants live today. In 1883 Connelley' father enlisted In the federal army aa a captain of a mounted Infantry command, the Party fifth Kentucky. Four months after the father went away to the war the mother died, leaving four little one. the oldest being William K-- Connelley, then g years old. There was no kith or kin In the immediate neighborhood to take the little tloek home, and so. with what help he got from the neighbors, this boy of R was father and mother to the brood. They came near starvation many times, so near that the youngest baby was not able to walk till he was 4 years old. Hut they survived, all of them, and when the father returned from the war to resume again the honest toll of the mountain country shoemaker. he found them all thriving. Young Connelley apprenticed himself to the bench when he was a child, and Just as he was finishing his apprenticeship his father died, leaving them no heritage beyond that of a stainless name. So again he took up the burden of the family. lie had no tune to go to school, but at night by the pine knot fires he studied books secured from Louisville and Lexington. At 17 he ad TEA htf.

So he left Ids savings at I nine and came In Kansas.

Then briefly he has been: Assistant county clerk of Wy andotte county, banker ami lumberman at Kansas City, Kan., in the pension nfHi'e at Washington, and special pen-s- i. m examiner in Kansas, and finally in the nil business at Chanule. Ami all the while he lias been a prodigious writer. He is the author of "John Hmwn," "James H. Lane," "The Territorial Government of Kansas, The Overland Stage to California, "The Territorial Covernment of Nebraska," History of Wyandotte County," and recently the Memoirs of John J. Ingalls." He is a director of the Kansas Stale Historical society, member of the Ohio State Arcnaeologlcal and Historical society, and state secretary of the Society of Sons of the American Revolution. That Is the man who formed the plan which the people ratified, and the legislature enacted, and the rest of the world has approved, for making the Standard Oil company good. He Is not a fighter in me ordinary sense, but a crusader, a fanatic who would scale a wall If nobody went with hint. In pure devotion to a cause he believed to be right. Whether in fighting the greatest aggregation of capital which the world ever. saw, or the little scraps In the local voting district. It Is all one to him. He was a born agitator. The Standard people say he Is a born anarchist, and perhaps In the common acceptation of the term the terms are synonymous. Anyway, ne always Is doing things. And he U not only a hrad fighter, but a hitler one. He says hard and bitter things. There la little of huinor about him: his whole life hus been so grim. When he does attempt to play at the lighter part It Is much like the glint of sunshine on a cannon. And even then his conception of humor Is rather an inverted sense, because to him all these Investigations and all these laws directed against the Standard Hre funny! - do your JOURNAL, tlhve HaMt Get the and take beg, in Which STATE UTAH ?

Long In Consul Skinner's recent report on his visit to Abyssinia he mentions one of the most curious bodies of water in the world. He says that Lake Assal has an immense supply of good salt and holds out exceptional prospects to capitalists. A concession has already lieen granted for the exploitation of the salt. Lake Assal Is a small body of salt water lying seven or eight miles inland from the Bay of Tadjoura, one of the French possessions In Hast Africa. It comprises only about sixteen square miles. It is surrounded by a wonderful confusion of Jagged mountains, descending to the water's edge, so that It is almost impossible to travel around it. Its waters are salt to the point of saturation, and at Us lowest level there is seen upon its bank a layer of nearly pure salt over u foot thick. For years nolsMy knew whence it derive.! Its water. The few men who visited It could not ascertain that any stream Hows Into it. It was thought that the lake probably had subter-renea- ti allluents. but this theory was demonstrated. The mystery or Iike Assal was solved In 1SH5 by the French explorer, Henry Audnn. lie carefully examined the shores, though he found It very dllTlciilt. His hard work was at last rewarded by Hie murmur of a waternot fall. Ouided by the sound, he approached the spot, and the solution of the etilg-ni- a was before him. He found a large brook of crystalline water foaming over the stones mid throwing Itself Impetuously Into the lake. ITe tasted the water and found it ns salty as the ocean, of will' ll, indeed, it had been a part. I.ike Assal lie considerably below the surface or tin; sea. It has been ascertained that the water that pours into it cmiii-- from three brooks which s from Oubbet el Karab, a little bay at the extreme western end of the Bay of Tadjoura. The waters of the Indian ocean are curried inland to fill this depression in the interior, and when they reach Lake Assal they are about 400 feet below the level of the sea. From time to time tlie salt has been carried by caravans as far inland as Menelek's capital. I'rrlmps there are only two other instances known of water flowing Inland Both through brooks from the sea. these brooks are in the island of Ceph-liloiil- a, In the Ionian sea. west of Greece. They are on the southwest side of the island, near the small town and port of Argostoll. For a little way they flow near one another straight from the sea. and then follow different courses. Both streams finally disappear in the ground, probably reaching some subterranean reservoir, whose waters Iierhaps again reach the sea through fissures in the rocks. There is no tide in the sea here and the flow of the salt water streams is perfectly steady and continuous. How 1 The Bast Cough Syrup.
