A Young Mans Cunning StrataSem, All"
How 1t Worked.
There is young man in this city,
good-looking young fellow, vino has
sweetheart out in the country few
miles, and he spends two evenings
every week in her society. A few nights
AGO he stayed to the usual hour, and as
he passed out of the front door he dis
covered that it was cloudy and dark
He did not relish the idea OF diving
alone through the gloomy n'ght, and
limited about a good deal to get an in
vitation to remain, but it was no. 70 TIL
coming. But the young man was equal
to the emergency. Going down the
steps he artfully contriyed TO slip and
fall gently to the ground. Thereupon
he set up tremendous groaning. The
ruse worked admirably. The girl
screamed, the men folks jumped out of
bed and carried the young man tender
" into the house. His horse was put
up and he was assisted to undress and
deposited in the spare chamber. lie
had hardly begun to chuckle over the
success of the stratagem when the girl s
mother put in an appearance with a
mustard plaster a foot square and OF
ten-horse drawing power. This she
Immediately proceeded to clap on the
small of the young mans back, where
he had incautiously located the damage
to his frame. For two mortal hours
that woman sat by the bed and was not
satisfied till she beheld with her own
eye a blister an inch deep. The young
man is now a reformed liar.-CouncH

MARVELLOUS OIL WELLS.
Refined Oil Sold at Three Gents a
Gallon.
The Wonders of the Russian Oil Wells as
Seen by a Pennsylvania Operator
Some OF the Drawbacks of
the Russian System.

"The present production of the Rus
sian petroleum field as near as L can
ascertain" said Mr.. John Eaton, who
has Just returned from a six months
tour in Europe, "is between 10000 and
$4,000 barrels per day. 1t could prob
ably be increased to $4,000 barrels
from the same wells, provided they
were allowed to produce all the time
Mr.. Eaton, who is President of the
Oil Well Supply Company, is one of the
heaviest and best-known operators in
r. oil country. While in Europe he
determined to take a look at Baku's
lenomenal oil spouters. What he
saw convinced him that Russia pos
.essed the biggest oil wells in the
world.
"Russian flowing wells" he cOntin-
ued, ''are not allowed to guSh all the
time. Their production is controlled by
means of gate valves When the Nobel
Company, which is the Standard Oil
Company of Russia, wants oil for its
numerous refneries, it turns the valve,
and a torrent of petroleum
gushes forth. What the field
would produce if every well in it was
allowed to do its best is question that
/ have not yet figured out A large
cast-iron elbow is placed over the top
of the well, and in front of it is a wood
en- conductor, perhaps two feet square,
through which the oil flows on to the
ground and by means of bitches or
trenches is led into lakes and ponds
These lakes and ponds, many of them
several hundred feet square, and from
ten to fifteen deep, are almost as nu-
merous in Russia as 3O,OOO-barrel stor-
age tanks are in portions OF the OIL
country As there are only few TANKS
in the field, the quantity of oil lost by
evaporation and through settling into
the ground must be enormous.
lone popularity of the RUSSIAN
pusher is the mountain of sand which
IS thrown out with the oil. Hillocks OF
sand surround every well. One mound
that l took pains TO measure was SIX
hundred feet long, ten feet high, ana
fifteen feet vide at the bottom and SIX
feet on top, and there was enough
sand lying around loose to make an,
other mountain of the same size. 1t all
came out of one well. Piles of sand
thirty feet high almost hide some OF the
derricks from sight. 1t is no uncom-
mon thing to raise the floors of derrlcks
and engine houses ten or fifteen feet TO
keep clear of the sand. The wells
ihould be called sand-andoil wells.
Thorn Creeks big wells can not hold
candle to the Russian geysers. ! told
