The Blue Jay we'll No. 2, in Forest
county, has been the strike Of greatest
interest to oilmen this month. 1t
flowed SO frequently and made such
large flows that the most skeptical
could not but believe that it was
drawing its supply from large de.
posit. It's average for the first few
days after connection was made with
the tank was 40 barrels day. When
it was turned into a new 600 barrel
tank, week ago yesterday, it was still
doing nearly 80 barrels. But the most
trustworthy reports do not place its
production to day at above 1S barrels
Oil was struck in this we'll at 1880
feet. This point corresponds with a
formation which was drilled through
in Blue Jay No. 1, in which gas was
found, but 10 oil. In the latter well,
the crude was struck nearly 200 feet
deeper. TO this latter sand, if it ex-
lists there, Blue Jay No. 2 has not been
drilled, but it is drawing its oil from
the same depth at which Blue Jay No.
found gas and no oil. The differ
ence in the oil from the two wells also
proves that it comes from district for.
nations. The petroleum of Blue Jay
No. 1, is So gravity; Of Blue Jay No.
2, 49, gravity, aud the latter is lighter
color than the other. North and east
of these two strikes, rigs are building,
and more tests of that section will be
made in month or two.
DR.. S. S. fowler writes from Mar
ienville that the only operation in that
vicinity is his own well, which is being
deepened. The Doctor adds: Every
thing calm enough here. Lots of spec
ulators, TO put it mild, but grabs can't
be made. Sharks not wanted in For

No New School House.

At the election last Saturday the
project Of erecting a new school build
ing was voted down by majority Of
eight, and as a consequence there will
be no new building for a time at least
1t may be that this was wise decs-

bring ourself to believe that there is
much prosperity in store for a town
which will vote down measure which
seemed so plain to he for the best in-

Hon. j.. l. Davis came home from
the Capitol on Friday evening last
remaining over Sunday, and re-
turning ON Monday. He reports active
times at Harrisburg, and says that
notwithstanding Attorney General
Palmer's decision that the Legislature
must work for nothing after tho 100
days have expired, they will not
adjourn until several important reform
bills are passed. Whatever may be
the opinions outside, those 10 and
about Harrisburg who have occasion
to know whereof they speak, are ofthe
firm belief that the Attorney Generals 5
decision was brought on'' by desire
to have the Legislature adjourn early
and avoid the passage of these reform
measures.

The so.oalled field is what is known
to the outside world as the Blue Jay
well No. 2, and being mauytimes
asked concerning its exact locality We
are furnished the following description
by party who has been on the ground
and made surveys in the immediate
vicinity
The we'll is locatei on the southeast
corner Of tract 1897, known as the
Cooper tract, in Howe township, about
400 feet from Tionesta creek, and
about 30 feet above the waters Of said
stream. A little to the north Of it is
a small stream known as Messengers
Run which enters the Tionesta from
the west, oAe.half mile above the
mouth of the Blue Jay, which enters
from the east side of the Tonesta
and about 600 feet below Blue Jay
No. 1. The we'll has been drilled to d
depth of ,2S4 feet, SO said by ono oI
the dri illers. From Saturday noon
until Sunday noon the well pat three
and one.fourth inches in 600 barrel

only about one and one.half miles from
