Not Oil. but Gas.

EAST LIvERPooL-The Hamilton we'll,
on the Mckinney iarm, was brought in yes
terday morning. Instead of being an oil
gusher, as expected, it is belching nothing
but gas. The owners say the pressure will
not be very heavy. Two other wells are
heing sunk in the immediate vicinity of the
Hamilton, and the owners OF that well will
not rest on their oars in order to watch the
outcome of the other ventures. They think
they are on the edge OF the oil pool, but
whether the INSIDE or outside edge is the
question they are trying to find out

good flows. Their No. T. same farm. is also
looking better, and will make good paving

They had the misfortune, however, at this
critical moment to stick the tools in the
sand, but nothing serious is apprehended in
getting them out. Three miles west from

Predictions of Drainage Verified.

WILDwooD-The prediction made by
The DISPATCH some time ago that Wild
wood had reached its eliminating point
and that the famous pool would soon turn
the scale on the downward course is now
being fulfilled. The highest production
attained approximately was Il, 600 barrels
day, but at present the aggregate output
will not exceed 5000 barrels in "a hours
There is no section Of the field but what is
showing drainage and so days hence there
will, in all probability, be different story
to tell. If the monthly report shows
an increase of new production over last
month, there will unquestionably be a
falling of in new work as compared with
October.
Wildwood has figured conspiciously in
swelling the production the last two months,
and to certain degree has been the basis
for the pretext of depreciatiDg the market.
There is one encouraging fact noticeable here
and that is the disposition to suspend drill
ing as far as possible. To this end the lease
owners OF the Southwest line are taking a
more sensible view OF the situation, and it is
Just possible that an arrangement may be
entered into by them, whereby the drill may
be given a rest.
Following is the gauge of come of the
principal wells:

M'COMAS HAD TO GO.

McComas, of Maryland, is one of the
Youngest and handsomest men in Congress.
His retirement will cause regret, although
he was strict party man and struck blows
right and left without fear or favor. He
has been in the House since 1888. and rose
to the front rank by his activity and abil-
ity. His district was set off for him as a
Republican stronghold, but the unseating
OF the two Maryland Democrats, Compton
and Mudd, brought down the wrath of his
enemies upon him.
Some idea can be had of the changes to
take place 10 the physiognomy of the House
by running over the list of new men from
the various States. Alabama is the only
State of any size returning her old delega-
ton. New York sends Is new men out of
"a; Pennsylvania Is out of %; Ohio 16 out OF
81. Kansas sends an entirely new delega-
tion, as does Nebraska. Michigan sends
new men in her IL; Wisconsin in her 9;
Iowa in her II, and Indiana of her 13.
California sends but one old member, Nc
Kenna, who, with Burrows, Dingley and
Payne, are all there is left of the Republican
end of the Ways and Means Committee.

Death of Mrs. Lizzie Hoskins.

After several weeks illness from heart
q disease, the beloved woman whose name
heads this article, died on last Sabbath
morning at : o'clock. Though not uncN-
nected, her death was sudden, she having
arisen in a seemingly improved condition,
and upon returning to her bed after a
short time, expired almost in an instant.
The golden cord of life was loosed All
too soon for those to whom her memory
will ever he sacred; for those who loved
her for her real worth and noble charac-
ter No blot or stain mars that memory,
for Mrs Hoskins lived and died true,
gracious Christian woman, adorned mCst
hy il Christians virtues She was the
last surviving child, save ono, of Rev.
Milton j. Whirwolii, founder of Whit,
worth College, and the WIFE Of Capt. J. i.
Hoskins. She leaves an only sister, Mrs

| Inc heeung OF the Fafr River Union.
The Ministers Deaccns' and Laymen's
Union of the Fair River Association met
with the Little Bahala church last Sat
urday, and was called to order at the ap-
pointed hour by Moderator Lewis White.

suing year resulted as follows: Modera-
tor Geo. A. Davis; Secretary, B. T..

After the organization, the two days

interesting program that had been pre-
pared by Pastor Thigpen and the dea-
cons of his church. A special feature of
Saturdays exercise was an essay on "The
Effects of Sinful Amusements," which
will appear in future issue of the LEAD
Err.
On Sunday morning the Union gave
place for time to the Ladies' Aid Sece-
ty, presided over by Mrs. X. J. Boone, of
Brookhaven, and witnessed the carrying
out of their very interesting program.
Miss Eta Girault and Miss Annie Hart
zog rendered recitations in very graceful
and effective style, and Miss Matte Furr
read SPLENDID essay on Missions.
The principal feature of Sunday was
an elaborate and powerful address OH To-
tai Abstinence by Rev. j. II. Gambrell.
1t was full of dynamite, solid facts and
amusing hits, and was one of the best he
ever delivered.
The next meeting of the Union will be
held with the Fair River church, begin
ing Saturday before the 9Th Sabbath in
March.
The members of the Little Baliala
church and community exerted themselves
to the utmost to entertain all visitors and
succeeded admirably. A fine dinner was
spread at the church by the ladies each
day of the meeting,
The writer was the guest of Prof J.
NJ. Girault and his interesting family dur
ing his stay at the meeting and desires to
return especial thanks to them for cour
tcsies extended. The Professor, assisted
by his accomplished daughter, Miss Eta,
is succeeding finely with his school, the
Little Bahala Institute, having an enroll
ment to date of 65 pupils. A new school
house has lately taken the place of the
old, equipped with maps, blackboards,
etc, and parents of that section may
well congratulate themselves upon the
superior advantages which the school af
fords their children.

Services at the Episcopal Church

For the first time in many years servIc-
es were held at the Episcopal church
last Sunday afternoon. The little build
ing, which had been very tastefnlly fur
nishcd was filled to its fullest capacity:
some would-be attendants could not even
gain admittance. The services were con-
Quoted by the Rev. Geo. L. Neide of Sum
nit. very able and pleasant gentleman
whose sermon made a good Impression up
on tho large congregation. A very at
tractive feature was the clOir, which san g
Il large part of the service, thing done
in but few places in this section of the
country, and could not have been done
here but for the musical skill and knowl-
edge of Mr. Irby McKernan, who man
aged the entire affair. and to whose ener-
av is due not alone the service itself, but
also its astonishing excellence.
There will be services at the church
again next Sunday afternoon at 3 o'cloc k,
which will provo equally interesting and
attractive.
