STRUCK OIL IN srANARDsvILLe.

Gallons Per Day.

Running IN the Cellar OF House rory
Gallons Per Day.
fCorrespondence OF the Richmond Dispstch.I
GoRDossyT1LE. Va, February 11.--The
oil In Stanardsville, Greene county, Is a
certainty. 1t is running in the cellar OF q
house in Stanardsville ct the rate Of forty
gallons per day. Mr.. Bray lives in the
house, but il belongs TO Mr.. Snow. The
oil is also escaping in many places in a
Geld belonging to Mrs. Munday, near Mr.;
SHOWS house. The land the oil is on could
have been bought very cheap before the
oil broke loose, but now it IS awaiting
future developments. The oil running
from the well makes q brighter light than
the oil marketed. Mr.. BRAY burns it in his
lamps. Different parties have sent samples
of the oil to chemists for analysis. Ex-
perienced oil-men will be at Stanardsville
coon TO Judge of its value. The present
prospects are promising to the little ham,
let overlooked by the Blue Ridge. HurIah
for StanArdsyille
AN OLD RELIC.
Mr.. II. G. Baker, whilst overhauling the
papers which have been accumulating In
his family for years. came across an old
deed to piece Of land surveyed by Mr.
q. Washington, as stated in the grant.
The deed was made by THE Right Honor
yellowed tine papers. the ink has faded
little, the corners are worn some by con-
slant folding. but otherwise the instru-
ment of writing is well preserved. The
paper IS curiosity as an old relic.
FREAK or NATURE.
The old idea that cats will love their
fires and not their benefactors Is errone-
Gus. There is little girl in this neighbour
hood who has q numerous lot of pet cats,
eleven in ALL She has no brothers or sis
tiers. and her cats are her playmates. When
she takes a walk in the evening, sometimes
going across fields and through woods
long distance to houses on the farm, every
cat. from the playful little pussies to the big
burly Tom-cat. will fall into line and form
procession eleven cats long, and follow
that child TO where she is going and come
home with her when she returns. The cats
seem pleased with their departure from
lolllng by the freslde and enjoy their
walks as much as her dog Mingo.

Died

At his home in this city, Tuesday af-
ternoon, Oct. 13, 1891, of typhoid fever
Mr.. Franklin T. White, aged SO years.
10 months and nine days.
The deceased was born in Preston
county, w. Va, and when about two
years old his parents moved to Baxton
county that State, where Frank grew
to manhood. On the 10Th day of Feb
ruary, 1882. he was united in marriage
to Miss Maggie NJ. Cunningham, of
his home county, who, with two small
children, still survive him. They
came to Kansas several years ago, and
have lived in lola about two years.
Mr.. White was a model young man
and his family, by his death, lose
true and affectionate husband and
father, society an exemplary life, and
our country good citizen. May he
rest in peace and the God of all kind
ness shower blessings upon those who
sadly mourn his loss.
The funeral services were held at
the residence Wednesday afternoon,
conducted by Rev. Shaley of the Re
formed church, after which the NOR
tai remains were laid to rest in the
lola cemetery, followed by a large
concourse of friends.

High School Notes

The lecture given by Pres. A. r.
Taylor of the State Normal School
was highly appreciated by all who
heard it. The audience was not as
large as it should have been but il
was very attentive and orderly. Find
ing that the expenses were greater
than the proceeds, Pres. Taylor pre-
sented the schools with sum of mon-
ey equal to the difference.
Pes. Taylor visited the schools Fri.
day morning and gave the High
School very plsasant talk. We hope
that he will come again.
Our first month of school closed Fri
day. On Monday the pupils received
their cards. The teachers request
that parents, after careful examina-
tion of the cards to sign and return
them as early as convenient.
The High School was rank one last
week in attendance, an instance which
has not occurred before in the last two
years.
Prof. Evilsizer desires class of %
instead of Is scholars, as was stated,
before giving free lessons to the High
School.

then when the good people took us to
their homes we were made to feel at
home indeed, and the kindest courte-
sizes were shown to all.
The next annual convention will be
held at LaHarpe, time will be named
by the committee. If every Sunday
School worker in the county would at
tend these conventions it would result
in wonderful advance of the good
cause. Come to the next one.

The County sunday school Convention

The annual meeting of the county
Sunday School convention was held at
the Maple Grove NJ. f. church, Salem
township, Tuesday and Wednesday of

attended and decided and increasing
interest was shown through the en-
tire meeting. Lively talks, stirring
addresses, and thoughtful papers gave
to the convention increased zeal and
new and helpful methods for the work
of the coming year. The music under
the lead of Mr.. Pingrey and Rev. o.
l.. Sumner, with Miss Moore at the
organ was good and enlivening and
added very much to the interest of the
convention.
A special feature in the music was
the boys band, of Humboldt, which
upon the invitation of the convention
came over on Wednesday and played
several stirring pieces. The boys can
feel assured that their music was ap-
preciated and that the convention was
delighted by their coming.

than at any previous convention for
years.
