An Active Locality.

PETERsvILLE.-Tnis locality still re-
mains active. Considerable new work is
being done and the wells being brought in
are all average producers, with an occa-
sional good one thrown in. The Hundred
Foot Oil Company's No. 4, Nesbit farm, is
in the sand, with favorable showing for a
nice producer. Humphrey is just in and
flowing at the rate of 100 barrels per diem.
Young Brothers No. 8, G. E. Shannon, is
go feet in the sand and showing up good.
Deitrick Brothers, G. B. Burnhart farm,
are in the mountain sand. Black & Co. IS
No. 8, Hiram Graham, is down 800 feet.
Hovis & Redd's No. 2 Blenkley is among
one of the incest wells brought in vet. She
started off at 2O0-barrel day gait, but has
since increased to the good several barrels
and is now doing close to 800 barrels per
day.
The Western and Atlantic station at this
place was partially consumed by fire at 10
A. M. on the first dav Of the new year. No
serious damage was done to the machinery
or boilers, and they expect to start up soon.

Good Wen at Gallery.

CALLERY-Another good one has been
added to the list in this field by the arrival
of Forst & Co.'s No. 1. William Cashdol-
lar, which is certainly. at very conserva-
tive estimate. doing $50 barrels per day.
With the arrival of such wells as this and
No. Goehring a new stimulus is added, and
the drill will be kept moving. The inside
history of the field thus far has shown that
several wells are due and in the sand now.
Among some of those that should be heard
from soon is Forst & Co. No. 2, Anderson
farm, the Carnshin Oil Company No. 2,
Douthett, and Thomas 3 Co. No. !, Samuel
Kaufman farm.

Nearly Flooded Out.

GLADE RUN.-Had not the temperature
changed when it did this field was threat
ened with a second deluge, the result of the
recent thaw and rains. As it was, there were
some narrow escapes. No serious damage
was done, though numbers of wells were
overfowed and shut down, and in some cases
gas lines and steam lines torn up. The
water came up and into the fre-box of the
boilers at the Wand A station. A man
named Calender. who works on the water
station of the Forest Oil Company, was
driven from out of the pump house and
forced to climb tree to preserve his life,
and remained In this perilous position al
most all of Thursday night before he was
rescued.
The field presents nothing of special
interest in new work The Forests No. 8,
Sutton, is down 675 feet. No. 2, Williams,
is completed and making lots OF salt water,
but it is thought she will make nice we'll
when the water is exhausted. The actual
figures go to show that in old production
this field is holding her own with any of
them and bids fair to be a longer slayer and
longer lived field than the 100-foot ever
will

arrange railroad transportation for
them. Each company was ordered
to secure three days rations. Tents
and blankets were issued from the
Capitol, and sent down by the special
train.
AT 8 o'clock last evening a special
