Others place it at two hundred barrels.

New CASTLE, March, s.
Intelligence has been received here
that the Slipperyrock well pumped yes
terday two hundred barrels of oil and is
gaining. Another big well has just been
struck on Muddycreek, a tributary of Slips
peryrock, and the Clark company have
struck fine show of oil handy to the
town of Wirtemberg. The excitement
is great on the Connoquenessing creek,
it being a continuation Of Slipperyrock,
and mang oil men think it is more favor
able for oil than slipperyrock. All the
lands in this region are changing hands
