arrival of the special train from In-
dependence thie morning with the big
four ton steel hood, the work of at-
tempting to extinguish the flames that
arc consuming the output of the big-
gest gas well in tlie world was un-
dertaken In earnest. The first of the
big task is to ballast the hood over
the well, so that it will resist a pres-
sure of C50 pounds to the square Inch.
The hood has a long funnel top, and
through this it Is expected to divert
the flow and finally shut it off entirely
thus putting out the flazpej£. Streams
of w'ater ai'e kept playing on the work-
men so that they are not scorched to
death, but frequently they have tcwre-
fcreat from the well for breath. g4
danger attends the work^ as gusts
wind may sweep the flames in any
rection, licking up all in their pa :h.
The terrific sound of the burning £as
wMch' prevents communication , toy
voice, Increases the danger of
work, as commands from the superin-
tendents cannot be heard by the wdjfk-
efs.
