Three Golden Balls.

It may not be generally known that
the game of billiards originated in a
pawnbroker's shop. In the latter part
of the sixteenth century London
pawnbroker, William Kerr, was in the
habit of amusing himself in wet
weather. when there were no customers.
with pushing about three balls on the
counter with . yard measure. This
suggested board with side pockets.
An old manuscript says: Master
William Kerr did make ono board
whereby game is played with three
balls; and all the young men were
greatly recreated thereat, chiefly the
young clergymen from st. Pauls; heno<
one OF ye strokes was named can
non, having been by one of 70 said
clergymen invented. The game is nov
known by the name of tbill.yard.' be
cause William or Bill Kerr did first
play with the yard measure. The stick
is now called kew or 'kue.'" The
bil-yard is modernized into billiard, and
kew into cue.

A Remarkable Recovery.

The recovery from a wound generally
pronounced mortal, and the restoration
of the organ wounded to healthy action,
occurred in the Ouschlta country, in the
case of an eminent citizen who filled the
highest political offices in the State, and
was always regarded as leader of the
dominant political party. We refer to
General Solomon w. Downes, who once
represented louisiana in the United
States Senate. In a duel between Gen.
eral Downes and General Morgan-thc

was shot through the lungs. The balls
which penetrated his body carried with
it piece of cloth in which it was the
custom to wrap the balls used in the
old-tashioned rifles. The ball was cx-
tracted, but the cloth remained and pro-
duced inflammation. which gave great
pam and distress to the wounded gentle
man.. His lungs, which had been pro-
nounced before he was shot as in very
unsound condition and had elected the
most gloomy apprehension of his e4rly
decease from consumption, were much
inflamed and irritated by the presence of
this cloth which had perforated them,
and thus increased and aggravated the
violent coughing to which. he had been
subjected. HIS physician thought there
was but little hope of his recovery, and
the general himself made preparations
for the early close. Of his mortal career.
One day, in aspasm of violent cough
ing and copious hemorrhage from the
lungs, the wadding was thrown up, and
carefully examined va surgeon from
this city, who astonished the afflicted gen.
tleman by cheeiiy congratulating him on
the event, as not only relief from a
cause Of great suffering, but as furnish
ing grounds tor the hope and belief of
the restoration of his lungs to a sound
and healthy condition. And so it prov
ed, for General Downes lived thirty years
longer, and was one Of the most active
and conspicuous OF our public men, and
one of the most vigorous and success

The History of Petroleum.

A correspondent OF the Philadelphia
Times, writing from Oil City, Penn,
| thus briefly sketches Il history of the
now universally used petroleum.: "In
1914 petroleum was used as medicine
At thar time, and up to 1858, it was
known as 'Senaca OH probably on &C.
count OF its having been found on the sur
face of Scnaca Lake, and having first
fSeen used by the Senaca Indians as a
medicine. The mode of obtaining this
oil, at that period of its history, was by
throwing blankets on the surf ace Of still
water where tbeoil was wont to accumu-
late, and after they had become saturated
to remove them and extract the oil by
wringing the blankets. From this print
tive beginning has grown one Of the lead
ing industries in this state. 1t was not,
however, until the years Of 1853 4 that
petroleum began to be- valued as an lllu-
minator, and this only in limited way,
for it was then burned in its crude state
in old lard-oil lamps, which were liable
to explode at any time.
Between 1854aand 1857 1ite, became
known that the explosive qualities of this
product conld abe9removed by subjecting
it to process of distilation, ana from
that time it's value began to be recognize
ee. Here difficulty arose. The oil
could not be gathered in sufficient guam
titles to supply the demand and some
thing must be done or the new industry
would fall through. Accordingly in the
year 1853 a joint stock company WAS or
gained for the purpose of boring into the
rock IN quest Of the now valuable Goll,
and Colonel E. L. Drake was put at the
head of this company, with full power
to push the'enterprise. The work proved
to be full of difficulties. The facilities
fer probing the hard rock at that time
were exceedingly limited. The derricks
used were only thirty feet high and the
drilling tools only weighed in the neigh
aorhood Of t~o hundred and fifty pounds,
and the old horse power swaa used for
running the machinery. With all these
difticulti.s to contend with the work pl D.
gressed slowly, and it was net until Au.
gust So, 1859, that the drill struck the
shale rock At the depth of seventy-one
feet, and the well Immediately filed IN
to within five inches of the surface. A
small pump was inserted, and the pro
duction was found to be about forty bar
rels per diem, at which rate it kept w
Tor several months This we'll was To-
Gated in Cherry Tree township, Vcnango
county, about two miles from what il
now the city Of Titusville, on the banks
