A correspondent of the Philadel phia
Press states that a syndicate of wealthy
Pennsylvanians, antagonistic to the
Standard Oil Company, has purchased
800 900 acres Of land in the West Vir-
ginia oil belt, and propose in the spring
to begin sinking wells in series of TWEEN
ties, each experiment representing an
investment Of 500, 900. II these expert
meuts in West Virginia fields should be
successful, a radical change would ne
cessarily follow in the control of the oil
market. This new field would have the
advantage, especially in the Western
trade, Of cheap water transportation
and afurtber saving in the cost ofpro-
dnction, as compared with the .hickly.
drilled Pennsylvania region. The syn
dicate have already secured 80 much
land, and If they strike paying wells
they will practically control this new
source of supply, and in Il short time
build up an oil corporation that might
eclipse the Standard. A railroad run.
ming from Wheeling southwark along
the Ohio river is now tapping the re-
gion of the purchase made by the Penn
sylvania syndicate, which has not less
than half a dozen navigabie streams,
emptying into the Ohio. Water as well
as rail transportation is thus offered for
the products of timber and oil.

OF intoxicating waltzes
And swiftly gliding feet,
Thinks the guardian of our city
AS he treads his lonely beat.
Ofthe pouting, blushing maiden
Whom he met but yesterDight,
With lips as red as cherries,
And eyes SO clear and bright.
With pleasure he remembers
Every word that shc had uttered,
When he wrapped her cloak around her
How his manly heart had tiutteIed
Then he meets brother copper,
Who crushes out his life,
As he thanks him very warmly
For "your kindness to my WIFE"

All for Love.

In Harrisburg, on Saturday night,
Lieutenant NJ Cam found young girl
sitting on curb stone in the vicinity OF
Walnut and Fifth street, stiff with cold,
and her eyes swollen from weeping.
The officer took her to the Mayor y Office
and afterward to her home. When she
became warm she told quite romantic
tale. II was to the effect that she had
bestowed her affections on q certain
young man, and that on the evening she
was found, she had seen him walking
with another girl. This only confirmed
the suspicions she had previously enter
tanned of his Inconsistency. She said
when she retired TO her room the thought
Of her lovers act so worried her that
she climbed ont upon the balcony,
thehcc 10 u tree, and then to the ground,
and had wandered down to the depot
with the intention of throwing herself
under the wheels. She thought better
of il, however, and in her frenzy walk
ed mp the street again, hardly knowing
what she was doing or where she wa
going.
