Oil Notes.

The flames were extinguished at the
Shlagel and Lentz well on the Garvin farm
in Cranberry twp. last Friday morning,
aud it was reported to be doing GOO bbls.
from the 100 IT. next day. The well was
set on fire by a driller who was looking
for his horse in the woods near by, and
not by farmer as reported. Shlagel and
Lcntz are Allegheny city men. They
tried their hands at oil producing some
years ago, and had bad luck at first, at
one time having $32, 900 in the hole-bu'
they made some money at Glade Run, and
this strike viii make them rich as they
have all the Garvin and some other terrific
ry in the vicinity.
The Standard has been doing some
strange things with the oil market lately.
On Friday Of last week, it was announced
that hereafter the premium on all Western
Pennsylvania, New York and West Vir-
ginis, oil would be Is cents. Next day it
took off the premium entirely, and oil sold
that morning at so cts., the lowest for
nine years, but by evening was up to 70
cts. Since that it has been staying in the
sixties, and speculation has been more
active.
Thompson d Dale's No. on the Oswald
RAIDER is rated at 200 bbls day, and is
one of the best wells in the county.
Bolard q Co.'s No. 2 on the Kennedy,
near Mars, is rated at from 25 to 80 bbls a
day.
Phillips No. on the Harry Logan in

The Hemlock Worm.

1t has generally been thought that hem
Jock and all trees Of that family are proof
against the ravages Of worms and borers.
1t is now reported that alarm is spreading
in Potter county and throughout the great
strip of hemlock timber in Pennsy lvania
over the rayages of worm that is destroy
ing the foliage of the hemlock.
1t was only during the past week that
it was noticed that the tops of the heavy
timber on the mountains were turning
brown, as though the trees were dying.
The trees looked exactly as though the
had gone through forest fire. An inves-
tigation proved that the trees were cover
ed with myraids of worms which were eat
ing the green and tender foliage of this
years growth and Of the preceding year,
the woody twig not being touch
ed. The worms are swarming about
the men engaged in bark peeling by
the millions, while on all the trees from
Coudersport to Port Allegheny, miles and
miles of trees are turning brown. The
worm that is doing the damage is of the
measuring worm species, about an inch
long, and nearly an eighth of an inch in
diameter.

WILLIAM r. PATTERSON.

THE humbug hue and cry for Blaine
that the Cameron-Quay combination
started, month before the time for the
State Convention, over three months before
the election, and nearly year ahead OF
next National Convention, makes one
wonder what they will do next. They tell
a story of sailor who, while ashore, bought
a parrot, and then went to the theatre,
and the play interested him SO intensly,
that after each act he would wonder
what in h--l they'd do next" By and
by there was tremendous explosion, the
building was demolished. and nearly
everybody in it persisted. The. sailor was
killed, but the parrot was not, and as they
pulled its cage from among the debris, it
wondered 'swhat in hi they'd do next
And so the spectators of the doings of Don
Cameron, and his Ami damned friend damned
to him) Quay, as the French put it, can
well wonder What win be their next move
towards obtaining control of the State
delegation to the next National Conven-
ton, and the next State Legislature.

PITTsBURG, August 20, 1891.
"The world do move" an old saying,
but none the less true. The particular
portion of the foresaid sphere to which we
desire to call the attention of our readers
is Pittsburg and its grand Exposition,
which opens its doors for the third season
on Wednesday evening, Sept. 2nd, for a
period of forty days, or to be more de-
finite, closing Oct. 18th.
The wonderful success which has attend
ed the efforts Of its promoters in the past
two years is already well-known to the
people of this community, and has passed
into history as one of the most deserving,
at the same time one of the most successful
ofpublic enterprises. Its management has
the fattering record to its credit of having
faithfully carried out itspromises, as thous-
ands of delighted visitors can abundantly
testify. The exposition has, in conse-
quence, received the unqualified endorse
ment Of every intelligent citizen Of Western
Pennsylvania and adjoining States. The
gentlemen who have this important under
taking in charge are determined to do
everything in their power to make it more
attractive and valuable each year. From
present indications they are on the right
track, and are bound to succeed. No ex-
penses has been spared to provide the best
famous Seventh Regiment Band of New
York, under the direction Of the established
favorite, Col. Cappa, as leader, hiss been
engaged for the entire season.. This is
the first time this magnificent musical or
ganization has ever visited Pittsburg, and
the Exposition management is to be con-
graduated ON being able to effect an en-
gagement with such a representative body
of musicians.
Another attraction will he the Art De-
partment, which will comprise collection
of rarest and most costly gems from the
studios of both America and foreign artists.
The loan collection of paintings rendered
the Exposition Society, through the courte-
sy of many of the wealthy ard public-spirit-
ed men OF Pittsbmg and Allegheny, is un-
questionable the finest collection of valu-
abe works of art ever shown in Pittsburg,
and has never been surpassed as a whole,
anywhere in this country.
The Exposition is booming, and this will
be the most prosperous year, and
everyone who can should certainly i'm
prove the opportunity to visit it before II
closes.
HARRIS.
