Practical tests having fully demonstrated the
superiority of this machine over all others for the
purpose Of sinking Oil Wells, the undersigned is
now prepared to receive orders fer the same.

for the boring of oil wells excepting the ST1AM
ENGINE AND CAST IRON DRIVING PIPE,
(but will be furnished, if desired, at reasonable
rope, bull heel and other cumbrous and expensive
sructed now op 1h ana tb q con-
easily removed for the pur pose of sinking wells in
different localities.
The detritus is removed from the well by our pat.
ent hydraulic process, and does cot require the
renewal of the drill from the boring This process
not only removes all the detritus in from to 10
minutes. but likewise efectually clears out and
opens all the small Oil veins that often en-
tirsly closed by the old process Of sand pumping
With this machine and . practical engineer, a
we'll can be sunk from 400 to eco feet within p.riod
Of from Is to 80 days after the soil pipe has been
driven.
Arrangements are being made for the construe-
ton and delivery of these machines at New York,

THR UNION VICTORIES AND THE DRAFT
The following from the Philadelphia Amerl-
can Is OF interest to drafted men:
An erroneous impression exists that in view
OF our recent great victories and the near ap-
proach OF peace, the government will notneed
many more men, and that those wards and
districts whose quotas are not full will be al
lowed 10 escape. This, welfare assured, upon
the best authority, will not be the case. The
government is determinedto have every man
furnished by volunteering a draft will assur-
edly take place. or those already drafted will
fail TO be released. and will have to report
In person. The only difference that the victo-
RES Will make, so far as the drafts concerned,
is that a little longer time will be allowed to
Glstricts to furnish the quotas. The hard
ngnt1ng Is done with, but soldiers will be re-
qalred for some time to establish law and or.
der In those cities and towns South where such
. thing has not been known for four years.
