THE WELLS INCREASING.
THE DRILL AUGMENTs THE PRoDUC-
TION YESTERDAY.

An Enormous Output Guaranteed-New
Wells About Due to Get the Pay Streak
The Moon Field Coming to the Front
With New Producers.
Although there were new wells drilled
into the fifth sand yesterday, there were
number of wells which enlarged the average
daily production. There are a score OF
wells In the field which, with little agita-
tion, will yield as much oil as many
of the wells which started off
at big figures. These wells can
not be counted as regular producers, as
one day they are liable to do almost any
amount of oil and the next nothing at all
When such wells are struck they are looked
upon as big ones, but their aggregate pro-
duction is seldom greater than that of aver
age wells. Many of these, however, are big
producers, and give the owners the most
sangu1ne hopes of immortal riches.
In the Great Southwest
In the southwest field several wells were
drilled to the lower depths yesterday.
Among these were Guffey Murphy & Co. g
well On the Baldwin farm, which increased
from 70 to 125 barrels day. This enormous
increase was produced by few runs of the
drill and in few moments everyone who
had the least idea of this well knew that it
Isolated from rything else and was
known far and wide as well which II good
would prove bonanza to its owners. Such
things will always be, and no one can stop
them. If the owner persists in pushing his
case, in nine cases out of ten the opposition
Will succumb to his advances, and 1t is much
the same way in the oil business. If pro-
ducer can be shown that he will not get a
well of at least loo barrels capacity in field
where the wells average at Least 500 barrels
a day, he will call halt, and may in all prob
ability ask for a more secluded nook IN
which to vent his love. In such cases the
lover is never blamed, but the one who
plans the clandestine meetings is looked
upon as a near relation of Mephistopheles.
There is not one of the producers who would
not Indignantly deny that we were in league
with the ruler of the lower regions. When,
however, we engage in the oil business we
are in the hands of persons who are unutter-
ably opposed to us. For instance the well
of the Woodland Oil Company, mile north
west of Oakdale, was drilled deeper yester-
day and rapidly increased from 40 to 100 bar
rels an hour. 1t was reported last night to
be flowing at the latter figure and
this alone was enough to attract the atten-
tion of other residents in the neighborhood.
1t is one of the greatest wells in the south
western oil district, and was looked upon as
dry. 1t is without doubt q marvel in the
field.
In the Moon Field.
MooN-Boden & Co.'s well, on the Springer,
is good for 100 barrels a day, and George
Gillnor Co.'s well, on the Sam Stevenson
farm, is showing for at least l25 barrels
day.

A Shot Through Car Window.

ALLIANCE, Sept. 7.-[SpeciaL l-As the Pitts
burg and Alliance accommodation was
passing Columbus this afternoon a bullet
crashed through the coach window near
where Mrs. David Laughlin, of this CITY, and
another lady were sitting. The ball passed
out the opposite window, shivering both
panes and scattering bits of glass al over
the ladies. Mrs. w. Smith, of Pittsburg, was
on the opposite side and the bullet whistled
past her face, fortunately doing no harm.
AT the time the shot was fired the train was
passing Hungarian settlement, and it is
supposed it was fired by some of the visibly
drunken residents. The Pennsylvania Com
pahy at once sent out detective, who will
likely locate his man before morning.

mineles its waters with those OF the Che
halls, which, in turn, merges itself into
Gray's Harbor, about one mile below the
mouth OF the Wishksh. This junction.
at the mouths of two rivers and bay,
gives Aberdeen deep water frontage not
equaled by any city on the Sound or IN
the state, and make it a natural
location for the building Of city.
The business portion Of the town is stu
ated on level apron of land running
back from the river for distance OF four
or five blocks, where it begins to rise by
gentle slope to height OF fifty to sew
enty-fve feet above the water line; there
it maintains level plateau for an indefl-
mite distance back, where the fine resi-
dence portion OF the city will undoubtedly
be built. From it a splendid view may
be obtained OF the valley and the harbor !;
and the sanitary conditions are all that
may be desired.

Aberdeen, Yesterday, to-day
and Tomorrow.

Notwithstanding the vastness OF the
undeveloped resources Of this region. and
in spite of the disadvantages of poor COM
munication, both of which should tend to
hamper SO materially her growth and
progress, Abeideen's superior location
was too obvious to be overlooked, and
pioneer enterprise has established itself
here. Five years ago the site on which
the city is built was covered with timber.
Eighteen months ago we had 800
people; to-day the city has population
Of more than 1000. 1t is the manufacture
ing, commercial and financial center of the
great Grays Harbor basin. Here have
been attracted cluster of industries that
have an aggregate payroll OF $4,000 per
month. These consist of four saw mills,
three canneries, boiler, machine-shops
and foundry, sash and door plant, plan
ing mill, ship-yard, brewery, clear manu-
factory, metal works, et.. Aberdeen is
at present the best lighted city Of its size
in the state. Brilliant arc lights flash
out ip the night from every corner. The
offices and stores are lighted by perfect
system of incandescent lights.

A CITY OF TO-DAY.
The Railroad Situation.

It is one of the wonders of western de-
velopment and civilization that Seattle,
Tacoma and Spokane Falls, have become
household words from the Rocky Noun
tains to the Atlantic coast, and Aber-
deem, city that has local resources equal
to either of them, and one whose loca-
ton as a seaport furnishes advantages far
superior to the Sound cities, should, up
to eighteen months ago, be comparatively
unknown. Such was the case until new
blood, new money and new men, recog-
nizing the fact that with the filling up
and development of the new state, there
must be great coast wise city on the
shores of Grays Harbor, and that Aber-
deems magnificent location at the june
ton of two rivers and at the head of nav
igation would easily place her far in adj
vance of any point or city in Southwest
ern Washington, located themselves there
and worked industriously and intelli-
gently to make known to the general
public, the tremendous resources of the
Grays Harbor country. The result OF
their work is that no city in the North
west is better thought OF or is attracting
more careful attention from the investor,
business man, speculator or home seeker
and mechanic, than this thriving city at
the head of Grays Harbor.

Aberdeen and Her Fisheries.

Another industry OF principal impor-
lance here rs the fishing interests CT the
region. Grays Harbor and all its tribu-
tary streams are stocked with millions OF
salmon and other fish. The catching
and packing OF these fish is one G. the
thriving industries of Aberdeen, which IS
constantly increasing in Importance and
III the amount of its output. Banks OF
halibut, cod and other deep sea fsh ara
located just off the north of the Harbor,
and as this is about the only port between
the Columbia river and Puget S-,'7r..', t
certainly must be the great deep sc. fish
market of the North Pacific Coast. The
mart for these fish is from the coast to
Minnesota. Preparations are already
under way to develop this very impor-
tant food supply.

she passes again going south, she has
travelled OVER SEVEN HUNDRED

has paid out nearly one thousand dollars
tow bill for being towed BOTH ways from
the Straits of Juan de Fuca to Seattle or

can be brought to her from the wheat
belt of Eastern Washington at the SAME
