FRANKLIN-The situation in the heavy oil
district is all that could be hoped for, and the
producers are good cheer. Since the price
has been advanced to S3 IS at the wells new
era has dawned upon the industry, which
hitherto at the old price, S3.65, was nip and
tuck for the producer to make ends meet. The
indispensable staple is IN good demand, and in
reality should bring S5 barrel. Operations
are meager, and the production of the new
wells about keeps pace with the decline of the
old ones. The principal seat of operations is
in the first district. and of a recent date some
fair wells have been obtained Following is a
statement of the old pipe line for October:

Tom Kelly, the ticket seller of Bar
NUNS circus, is as much specialist in
lis peculiar line as any, strictly speak
ing, professional man. The whole pro-
cess Of receiving the money, giving tho
tickets, and making the change is done
in three movements with the regularity of
clockwork. The ticket window is about
feet above the bottom of the wagon.
Mr.. Kelly sits upon high stool, with
large sum of money in dollars, halves,
and quarters piled upon the shelf on his

takes long deep breath, and opens the
window. Money is received in his right
hand and dropped upon the floor. The

the right hand has selected. mechanic

purchaser. No attcmp. Is made 10 pile

Mr.. Kelly sits like buoy surrounded by
a sea of money, the cres,s OF whose
waves mount up 10 and press closely
around his waist and almos. on a level
with the window ledge. After the per-
formance commences, and no more
people want tickets, Mr. Kelly closes the
window and steps carefully ovcrthis bed
OF money. Then. and not till then. is
any attempt made to count and sort this
sum. which amounts to several thousands
Of dollars In pieces Of all denomination.

When Is u man insane7
We have tons Of literature on tho
subject from eminent specialists, and
there arc humorous exports ready 10
pronounce Judgement after fifteen min
utes conversation with suspected
man. but many exceptional case defy
every recognized test.
But whom does Imagination overstep
its legitimate bounds and stamp Its
possessor MS mentally unbalancedp
Men have made Themselves, notorious
by their wild and extravagant flights Of
fancy, and yet have never been Chased
with the insane. On the other hand,
there are persons whose intense and
exaggerated style OF speaking and
writing has directed susp icion against
them from every quarter.
Tho most remarkable modern In.
stance is that OF George Francis Train.
For yeurs Mr. Train has generally
been regarded MS IL Iuna.ic. His
Eighty uttcranccs. his fits OF silence,
his defiance OF the law, his fasts, his
bellefs in Psyche and numerous other
eccentricities have placed him under
the ban. Aud, yet, his status Is un-
certain. Courts have adjudged him
insane AMI they havs also pronounced
him sane. He manages his own
affairs and makes money. His mad
ness. II 1t may be called such. has
plenty OF method in it
But for his daring imagination this
man would have been looked up TO as
n model capitalist and developer. He
s,iled ships to India. lie introduced
street cars in London and the tells
graph In Australia. lie had more to
do with tho building OF the Union
Pacific than amy other man. His in
vestments have all turned out we'll
and he Is rich.
Can such n man be insancp His
speeches and unconventional conduct
have uent him TO Jail In Franco, Ire-
land England and the United States
No one but an Anarchist or maniac
could have made such speeches. Once
he spent year Or two without uttering
Il word. Then no spent rs long time
holding communion with no ono but
children. Finally he found his Psyche
and announced his intention OF living
| forever.
Clearly this must be insanity. Still,
doubt will edge its way TO the front
People cannot help respecting the
intellect OF nun who manages com
plicated affairs. makes money and
saves it, and shows that his business
Judgment is OF the highest order II
Is fully as puzzling as the Jekyll and
Hyde mystery.
Here is study IN lunacy that has
bafllcd the expert. There is one good
thing about tit br ings men TO the
conclusion that the border line between
sanity and insanity cannot DO defined.
II all depends upou our point OF view.
