Another phenomenon has appear?
ed in good old "Jeems City." I
it was a well that miraculously ap?
peared on a farm bordering the old
stage road. Probably that was
caused by the San Francisco up?
heaval. Scientists. 50 far as we
know, have not attempted an expla?
nation.
Now the wells In James City, or
at least some, according to report,
have been strangelv affected re
ly. The water in some of the deep?
est wells, which has never Deer
known to vary, dropped from four
to seven feet all within a day or two
at widely separated points.
The public well at Toano dropped
seven feet, the one at Lightfoot four
or five feet, and others are noticed
to have become shallow, notably the
one at Croaker.
This is probably due to the ex?
ceptionally dry warier, but as it
was noticed about me time of tne
great Italian earthquake some would
connect the phenomenon with that
catastrophe.
The land of the white potato is
fast becoming famous.
