win held meeting at the st. James Hotel
last evening. W. M. Mcclure, of Murrays-
vile, and W. D. Hays, of Irwin, were pres
ent. Mr.. Mcclure said it was one of their
regular meetings, and nothing important
was considered. The company controls 5000
acres between the Murraysville and Grape
vile fields. They are now putting down a
well in the syncline, and expect to strike
gas at depth Of 1000 feet. The well is
down !, 300 feet Some gas was struck at
1,500 feet. If they find gas it will be piped

Exnecfs a Late Lake Onenins.

John H. McAdoo, the commercial agent
of the Great Northern road, was in Cleve-
land the other day. His company owns a
line of boats on the lakes, but from present
indications he doesn't think navigation will
be opened before April 10. Last year the
boats commenced to move March %. Mr..
McAdoo says the lake at Cleveland is still
frozen, but if the warm weather continues
it is liable to turn to slush at any time.
However, Mr.. McAdoo remarks that the
winter has been severe, and he doesn't look
for breakup on the lakes before April

He Will Go to the Chicago Convention, but
Not rs = Delegate.
BOSTON, Feb. 26.-It is positively stated
that Governor Russell will go to the Chi
cago Convention, not as delegate at large,
but as the guest of the entire State delega-
tion Chairman Corcoran, of the State
Democratic Committee, is quoted as saying:
The situation now points to q candidate
aside from the two who have been talked
about and the possibilities of W. Z. Russell
are growing all the time. At Chicago the
Governor will come in contact with pub
lie men and he has way of making himself
felt and appreciated under such circum-
stances Even If he is not given a place on
the ticket, it will tend to broaden him out
and give him q national reputation, which
will be very much for his credit in the future
and that Will be an advantage to him and to
all Democrats of his State.

The frost having come out of the ground
has reused those intending to build this sea-

in assessments has stimulated rather than
retarded improvements, as it is thought the
assessment basis will now be broad enough
to levy sufficient tax to improve the streets
and make the place more attractive.

Ancient and Honorable Artillery company
passed Sept. -, 1880. Sealed in Faneuil hall,
Boston, Dec. %, 1851; not to be opened until
Sept. r., 1850. Committee-Colonel Edward
Wyman, Major Charles W. Stevens, Captain
John l.. Stevenson, Captain Albert A. Folsom,
Lieutenant George II. Allen. Commander
1s8l-2-Captain William II. CuRdy.
This box was sealed with much ceremony
at public meeting held in Faneuil hall, at
which speeches were made by representa-
tive men. Perhaps the most interesting
incident in connection with the boxes, how
ever, is the fact that the manuscript mat
ter was the original composition of gentle
men particularly well posted in regard to
not only the general facts which they dis
cussed, but especially well qualified to tell
of the INSIDE" and generally unknown his
tory of those things, and they wrote with
the understanding that they should fully
and fearlessly discuss things, not only as
they were, but as they ought to be, and
should preserve no copies of what they
wrote. This makes the manuscript matter
doubly interesting to future historians,
and viii no doubt serve to Illustrate anew
the epigrammatic force Of Wendell Phil
lips remark, ''Tremble if your friend keeps
diary" But who will they hit?
The commander of the company for 1890
1891 was Captain William Hatch Jones, a
prominent architect of Boston, he being
succeeded by Lieutenant J. Henry Taylor,
of the Fifth regiment. NJ. V. NJ, brilliant
member of the Boston bar, elected at the
''drumhead election" At least it is one of
the ancient fictions which the company de-
lights to keep alive. that its officers are
elected by the members upon the field"
when the fact is, and everybody who is
anybody knows it, that they are elected by
the mem bers at their armory III Faneuil
hall at the regular meeting held usually
two or three weeks before election day."
And it speaks volumes for the members of
the company and of the Boston press that
in the long history of the company the
fiction has not been destroyed by prema-
ture publication Of the names OF the
honored ones. May it always continue so.
The Prince of Wales IS an honorary

rapidly across the rotunda of the hotel and
seemed making her way to the layatory.

not stop. but went on to the very compart-
ment in which Gurgenheimer had Killed
himself q few hours before. She then
turned and went TO 4 room across the way
in which the body of the suicide had been
placed for little while. BY this time a
clerk had caught up with the woman. He
spoke to her, but she did not seem to hear.
Then he shook her and the trance was
ended. She said she had been warned BY
a dream 10 come and save the life OF a man,
but supposed she was too late She was
three hours too late
