50. Mary's oracle.


Work has been resumed on the Cunning
ham well on McKim creek, and portion
of the tools gotten out of the hole. We
hope work may be kept up until oil is
reached, as we are pretty sure they are in
the right place TO get il.
The Gale well on Middle Island has been
tubed ana packed, aud now flows into the
tank at the rate Of from 10 TO 20 barrels a
day. There is some water with the oil,
but not enough ID damage the oil produc-
ton.
We understand that company has been
formed in st. Mary's and vicinity to drill
for oil on Broad run of Middle Island
creek, about one mile from town. We
understand that some of the most
desirable territory in the county
have been secured, and that
operations will begin at once. The oracle
believes this territory is all right, and that
the gentlemen who drill will get the oil.
They are all business men and farmers Of
the county. We understand that every
thing has been arranged. and that there is
no stock for sale in this company.
The Duncan No. ,, on the Smith farm,
will be drilled deeper in order TO get the
lower sand
The Gandee well on Bob Cooper has
been abandoned since it was blown up.
The tools have not yet been gotten out of
the Little Gulch" No. l.
The "Tomcat" or Bier well on French
crock, is being drilled deeper. 1t is said
that there was a mtscalculation of the
depth at which the oil should have been
struck.

johnny Reagan Stirred Up.

New YORK, May 16.---Johnny Reagan
has called at the Police Gazette office
and addressed himself to Richard K
Fox in this manner: Having read in
several papers that Billy Mcmillan, Of
Washington, d. c., is eager to arrange
match to fight any welter-weight in
America, more especially myself, l will
accommodate Mcmillan and arrange a
match to fight at catch weights for
81, 900 to 50, 900 side and the weller
weight championship of America, with
gloves. If this suits Mcmillan he will
cover the 500 deposit my hacker, Billy
Reid, has posted with the Police Gazette
and forward articles of agreement.
Richard X. Fox will suit for final stake
holder. The contest is to be decided four
weeks from signing, within 800 miles OF
New York City"

Nichols Signs With Bav Citv

Mr.. Samuel Nichols, of Wheeling,
who did such good work for Wheeling
in center field when the base ball craze
had firm hold on Wheeling, leaves this
week for Bay City, Michigan, to join
the club in that city. Mr.. Nichols com
bineS the same qualities in base ball
that the statesman and scholar does in
politics. He is safe and reliable; there
isn't a single dishonest hair in
his head, and the Bay City peo-
pie are fortunate in securing his
services. He had other offers, but the
terms were not high enough, and sew
eral managers in regretting their ina
bility to pay his terms paid a handsome
tribute TO his reputation in base ball
circles for his earnest work and gentle
manly qualities. Sans friends in Wheel
ing will watch his career with interest
and rejoice at the success he is sure to
enjoy.

Wheelmen the last week. This is the
largest number of members the division
has ever received in one week.
For the Scottish League football
mpionship the Glasgow Rangers beat
Dumbarton, at Glasgow, by four goals
in two. This places both teams equal
at the top of the list-Ra. gers two
matches to play, DumbartoI one.
The final tie for the Glasgow Charity
Cup was played between the Queens
Park and Northern Clubs, resulting in
a draw-one goal each. Over 100000
has been distributed to charities as a
result OF the matches for this cup.
Joey INITIAL, the champion profess
sonal swimmer of Great Britain, did
some remarkable swimming at Stafford,
Eng, the other day. He covered 156
ward in minute and 46 seconds, which
is , seconds better than the worlds
record for $50 yards.
The Kensington Quoting Club Of
Philadelphia will give a 15-yard QUOT

Two aronauts of Cleveland have been
matched to decide the high distance

awarded to the one whose descent from
the balloon requires the greatest length
of time, thereby indicating the greatest
height.
An Eastern kennel paper says the
American bull terrier dog should be
called ''bull and terrier" Such name
gives one at once an idea OF what style
this terrier is. Under the other name
it is bound sooner or later TO conflict
with the white bull terrier in the popu-
lar mind.
The results of the Westminster Col
lege trial field day were as follows: w.
X. Ramsey won mile run in $50; j. c.

John Whitman, the strong man, is
said to have accomplished rather re-
markable feat at New York. An empty
freight car weighing 81, 500 pounds was
resting on an incline on the tracks.
Whitman put his shoulders against the
car and pushed it along on the up grade
| for at least 80 feet. 1t requires ordi-
nariy from four to eight men to move a
car of this kind. Whitman, although
weighing but 15s pounds, will try to
push a loaded freight car weighing 40,
900 pounds some day this week.

The "Pripceton Demon 8" Record.

The second annual handicap games of
the Princeton University Athletic As
ISOLATION were held at the college
grounds Saturday afternoon. During
the afternoon Luther II. Carey, some
times called the princeton Demon, "
attempted to break the 75-yard record,
which is ~ seconds, held by five men.
The wind was against the demon, "
which, added to the fact that reliable
timekeepers were holding the watches,
prevented him from doing better than
eight seconds. After the games Carey
again came out for trial against the
record. This time young Swarm, of
Princeton, with five yards start, acted
as pacemaker. Carey got away fairly
we'll and rapidly overhauled Swarm, and
broke the tape in 3-5 seconds, creating
a new worlds record.

Prize fighting is being stopped in
Texas.
Jimmy Larkins beat Jimmy Hagen
last night.
Ike Weir saw the Larkins-Hagan fight,
and challenged the winner.
Jimmy Wakelv went to Frisco to-day
carrying 81, 900 to bet on Corbett.
Mike Haley has refused to meet Tom
Clark. He says he is 40 years of age
and has retired from the ring.
Arthur Chambers said recently that
he might challenge Jack McAuliffe for
the lightweight championship.
John Sullivan's training mate in his
last drunk was John Kernel. They had
picnic. Johns acting that night was
very funny.
Billy Woods, now Halls sparring
partner, tells friends that if Fitz gets
about SO, 900 more American dollars he
will go back to Australia and never re-
turn. And he is liable to get them in
the coming faky with Hall.
Slavin, on reaching New York, said
of Jack Kelly: 81 never heard of him,
and | guess nobody else ever did. Kelly
asked when | would be ready to fight.
| replied that ten minutes was all the
time / needed and told his hacker to
pick out room near by. This made
Kelly and his friend weaken bit, and
he confessed that he would rather fight
before club for $4,000 purse.
Slavin denies that he had revolver
in his pocket when he called on Sulli-
van.
If he defeats Kilrain, Frank Slavin

age the show.

enth. This is not due to the poor play
ing Of the team, or the superior work of
Pittsburg, which club defeated them
three times, but owing to luck pure and
simple. The record of the series will
prove that PittSburg was outbatted,
213 to PA, outfelded, .9lS to $40. and
struck out 10 to Q. But the New YorkS
will pull up again as soon as Buck Ew-
ing is able to play. Glasscock, by the
way, is playing out of sight. The base
ball reporters on the Pittsburg papers
make one very weary. They write like
a lot of jays, and it is wonder that
some of the players stand their nom
sense. They are very inconsistent in
their criticisms. Pittsburg has a strong
team, but if the papers keep up their
racket they will demoralize them.
Chicago leads in the League race,
with Boston pushing her hard. The
standing of the clubs including Friday
games is as follows:

The Yale-Haryard Row.

New HAVEN, Conn, May 16.-There
will be no base ball games this year be-
tween the Yale and Harvard university
teams. This is Yale'S decision after
considering Harvard'S latest statement
Capt. Calhoun, who has had charge Of
the matter, consulted with the Yale
alumni and professors interested in base
ball, and has decided TO adhere to the
position taken last week in the letter
declining to play Harvard this year. In
Yale'S second letter Capt. Calhoun reit-
crates Yale's position, declaring that
the Harvard captain and manager met
Yale and Princeton at Springfield and
in good faith arranged series of games
with these colleges. Now because Har-
ward has failed to keep her side of the
agreement, Yale declines to make any
further arrangements for series of
games this year..

Burns home run hit that won the
game for Brooklyn Wednesday was one
of the longest hits ever made at the
Cincinnati Park. 1t struck on the fly
within ten feet of the picket fence. 1t
was a desperate hit. Burns just shut
mis- eyes and hit with all his might and
main. He happened to meet it fair and
the ball caught the full force Of his
blow. 1t was fluke home run off a
ball that was very near a wild pitch and
intended to pull him on"
All of the old Wheeling players are
doing well this season. Jack Glasscock
is hitting tho ball hard, and fielding his
position in a wonderful manner. Brodie
is doing the same for Boston. Dick
Vansant, who used to guard third for
Wheeling under Buckenberger's man
agement, is winning laurels in San
Francisco. The Post Of that city says:
Vansant did splendid work at third. He
accepted nine difficult chances without
a blunder, most of bis stops being made
with one hand while on the run.
President Young, of the National
League, in bulletin announces change
in the playing rules of that organiza
ton. According to an order from the
National Board of Control, section of
rule 60, regarding the summary of the
game OF base ball, has been stricken out.
This section," said Mr.. Young, "cred-
tied batsmen with the number Of runs

National League of professional ball
players. 1t has been found Impractical

Where Catarrh Origiuatss-Ths Path Il Pursue,
And What It Almost Invariably

When catarrh has existed in the head
and upper part of the throat for anv length
OF time and tbs disease has been left IN n
cured, the trouble extends slowly down the
windpipe into the bronchial tubes, which
convey the air into the different parts of the
lungs: The tubes become affected from the
sweihng and the mucous arising from the
caCarrh, ana IN some instances become
plugged up so that the air cannot GET in as
freely as it should.
The cough that occurs at this stage is
dry, comes at intervals, is hacking in char
acter and is usually most troublesome in
the morning on arising or going to bed at
night, and it may be the first evidence of
the disease extending into the lungs.

for those who are thus affected. the follow
ing statement is given to the public from

From Eureka and Belmont Field.
Special Correspondence OF he REGISTER.


PHuIPPI, w. VA, May 15.-If any oil
well was ever "hoodooed," the test we'll
which has been sinking here for about a
year certainly has been. Bad luck has
stared the contractors in the face at every
turn. The tools have been lost some half
dozen times or more and everything has
gone wrong. Last Sunday the rope broke
again and let the bit down TO the bottom of
the hole which is from 1900 to 1900 feet
deep. Fishing was begun at once and the
tools were brought almost 10 the surface,
when something gave way again. Suisse
quent fishing has accomplished nothing, but
is still being carried on.
A great many citizens about here think
the drillers have been bought by some out
side influence; and that tie mishaps have
been intentional on their part and are
made to delay the work and discourage the
stockholders.
