AN American oil-well supply company
has received orders for drilling tools, cables,
and other materials from Campina. Rou-
mania. An accompanying letter states that
two wells have been struck there recently,
one flowing at the rate of 4, 600 barrels day.
If the discovery at Csmpina shall result in
largely supplying the European market but
little sympathy will be Felt for the Standard
Oil Company, though the result would be a
loss to America through falling off of the
foreign demand.

say, where 81 were paid last year only two
dollars will have to be raised this year outside
of the tax on saloons. These are hard facts
for the Democratic party to make a cam
pagn against. In Hamilton county the tax
paid amounts to $41S, $1,000, and in Cuya-
hoga $240, 1923, To expect the taxpayers
OF Ohio to repeal this law and give over this
large amount of money to the saloon-keepers
of the State merely for the luxury of having
the Democratic party in power, is asking too
much, or in the language of our own able
felIow-eitizen, is ''going a leetle too fare"

IN very beautiful and touching article
upon the characteristics of Chicago, the
Inter Ocean says: "Her geographical loca-
ton is her defense. She is centrally Ameri-
can in fact as we'll as in essence. Herstrength
is drawn from all sources, and the counter
currents of influx will ever neutralize the
extraneous effects that have been so potent
in the East. Here the enthusiasm and the
conservatism of the American nature meet
and harmonic, producing the mean that is
the best result of our republican nation
atty" By some oversight the sentence ''in-
closed please find my check for So" which
eminently Chicagonese legend decorates the
invitations to the Coleridge banquet
seems to be omitted in this otherwise very
complete catalogue of Chicago virtues.

THAT white settlers look with covetous eyes
upon lands belonging to the Indians, some
naughty practical jOkers at Niles City, NJ. T..
demonstrated to their satisfaction the other
day. These bad young men pretended to have
dispatches to the effect that the government
had thrown open the eastern part of the Fort
Keogh reservation to settlers. They whispered
this information cautiously to special friends
with the strictest iDiuncuons to secrecy. Before
night there was a stampede, the supposed public
land claims were staked off, shanties put up,
tents pitched, and the jokers declare that town
was laid out and several lawsuits inaugnrated.
The real estate boom was under full head way by
8 O'Clock in the evening but before 10 the joke
was out and the deceived settlers had abandoned
the place.

THINGS are in a bad shape, generally speaking,
and the outlook for the future is OminOus.
genteel and lady-like looking woman came into
Fulton-street prayer meeting on Saturday last,
and in a perfectly calm, Unconditional tone Of
voice announced "that ever since the time when
President Garfield was assassinaJed she had been
receiving communications from the Lord Jesus
Christ regarding events soon to take place in full
hllment of prophecy concerning the days just be-
fore His second coming. She said the American
Catholic bishops, who have been called TO Rome
for conference in November next, will bring the
Pope back with them The Ninilists will rise in
armed revolt, and reign of terror, worse than
that of the French revolution, will rule in the
land. Before next Christmas the Pope will have
come here and will have been killed. President
Arthur will also DO murdered before January
next. General Grant will be brought to the
front by the Catholics, and will be King for
time. All present church organization and creed
and ceremonial will be done away, and a new
church will be organized from the temperance
meetings now being held In halls and theaters
by men of every denomination. The Episcopal
clergy, abandoning all of their present form of
worship for Puritan simplicity, will become
the head of the united Christian church. She
said she had written these things and many
others beside, just they had been told to her"
She had fortunately left the manuscript at home
and only spoke from memory, there is no tell
ing what other fearful things she might have let
out of her Pandora box. 1t view Of these start
