M. Hulings has lease of about
fourteen hundred acres at Hickory on
which he will put down about dozen
wells. The property has never been
thoroughly tested, but it is now pro.
posed to get all the grease possible out
of it. Some old holes which were
drilled in the early days have been
plugged, to keep out the water. Some
heavy oil is produced which brings
$3.50 per barrel. The property is
managed by J. c. Sheratt.-Derrick.
The editor of the Commonwealth
is little fearful lest their Chairman,
E. s. Watson has sold out the Green.
hackers Of this State to the lndepend-
ents and Democrats. That's pretty
sharp dodge, but It will hardly 60
down. The tall statesman, anticipa-
ting that the Greenback vote would
fall off in the State, makes the mention
so that when the returns come in be
can attribute any G. B. loss that may
be noticeable to the perfdy of their
chairman. DO you see the point?
While in Warren, Pa, the other
day we made it point to call on our
old friend M. Silk, Of the Ludlow
House, and was astonished to see how
swimipgly he was getting along in his
new role as landlord. His honse is
situated in the pleasantest part of the
town and he is crowded to overho wing
with custom all the timo. 1T seems as
natural for Mike to run hotel as o
train of cars, and he is just as afiable
and courteous to his guests as he ever
was to the travelling public. No more
popular conductor ever punched a
ticket, and no better landlord ever
conducted hotel than Mr.. Silk, and
his many friends will take pleasure iD
stopping with him while travelling that
way.
Hunters are beginning to show
up in these parts. Messrs. Aaron
Kepler and - Blood, cousins oi
Editor Kepler arrived on Monday
evening, and yesterday morning took
their departure for the happy hunting
grounds. They have a comfortable
shanty on Salmon Branch, where deer
are plenty, and fat. Mr.. d. S. Wake
night will camp with the party for 4
week or two, and if they have gooC
tracking snow their happiness will b'
, complete. Other par ties are out i'll th'
