Correspondent of the Manufac-
turers' Record at Prestonsburg,
KY, writes as follows:
"Prestonsburg is the nearest
town to the Kentucky oil develop
ment, and is headquarters for the
oil operators. The wells are pro-
ducing ten to one hundred barrels
each per day. All are flowing wells
and not one is pumped. The oil is
OF the same quality as the Pennsyl-
vania product. All the wells drill
ed thus far are producers, and the
one coming in last week was no OK
ception to the rule. Immediately
on completing that we'll another
was begun. This place is also the
centre OF an excellent coal region
, and in beautiful valley four miles
long, a portion of which was pur'
chased and owned by the late Pres
ident Garfield, who as early as 1851
foresaw that this would be a grea
oil field"

Serious Accident.

Last Sunday about noon the Eve
year-old boy OF Harrison Curnutt,
who lives on MATS creek, three or
four miles from Peach Orchard,
was badly injured by the explosion
OF a dynamite cap. The child was
holding the deadly thing in his
left hand and striking ii with n
piece Of iron, trying, so he said, to
make a sinker for his fishing line.
lie had struck only a blow or two
when the cap exploded, the frag,
ments tearing the palm and fingers
OF his left hand fearfully. Thatnight
he was carried ON a horse to Peach
Orchard, through a terrible storm,
when DIR. Newlin gave the child
surgical aid. II is possible that the
little fellows hand may be saved
but II is probable that one or more
fingers must be amputatcd. Blood
poisoning and lock jaw, one or both
may ensue and thus greatly add Il
the gravity of the case. After do
ing their work on the boys hanC
the fragments Of metal tore through
the little fellows trousers, lacerat
ing his left thigh in a dozen Of
more places.
This and similar casualties SHOULD

Egypt and Syria in blood, doubled his
empire and inspired all Europe with
terror.
It is true that from Selim II to Alb
dull Hamid II the royal house of the OF
tomans has degenerated rapidly, yet the
Turk has always been found dangerous
when in corner. In the language of the
small boy, "He don't know when he's
LICKED
Time and time again the Turks
fought the Russians, always losing in
later years, but always returning to the
fray with fanatical zeal, fostered by a
religion which trains them to be fatal
lists from childhood.
The sultan 'sempire is disintegrated
one, it is true, but war might CONSOLE
date it, for there are millions of his
subjects who are always longing for 4
fight. His standing army does not num-
Der more than $50, 900 in time of peace,
but in case of war he could put 500, 900
men under arms.
The Turkish naval force is ridiculous
" small when compared with that of
other European countries. Our two
modern cruisers, the San Francisco and
l110 AOW III lu0 A4Sull6E-
ranean, could destroy the whole feet of
the sultan and not half try.
So it is apparent that but little could
be done to stop the advance of the COM
bined squadrons. The best the sultan
could do would be to sow the Darda-
nelles thick with torpedoes and man his
forts along the shore. This would only
delay matters for a little. The torpedoes
would all be fshed up within a few
days and half hours commandment
would silence the forts.
Should the sultan still hold out after
the hostile feet had anchored of Con
stantinople he would speedily find his
palaces tumbling in ruins about his ears.
Aboard the eighty odd ships which
would train their guns on his capital
would be over 200 six inch rapid fire
rifles which could hurl 100 pound steel
bolts for distance of six miles and lit
orally keep the air full of them. No one
but Turk would think of fighting with
such odds as these against him, but the
Turk is hard individual to "place"
under all conditions. and none more SO
than the present sultan.
Abdul Hamid, who may be the last
to bear the title, is remarkable man.
While the fate Of his empire, which is
half the size of the United States, is in
the balance, he is concerned only about
his own personal safety.
He is absolute ruler over 33, 1000, 900
of people, over every one of whom he
has the power of life and death. Yet he
does not feel safe in a palace guarded
moro strongly than any other in the
world.
He spends $50, 900, 900 year in keep
ing up household where he is in con-
slant fear Of assassination.
He solemnly assures England one mo-
ment that he has ordered the instigators
Of fresh outrages on Christians to be
punished and the next moment he re-
wards those same men with honors and
offices.
He processes to be deeply interested
in the education and freedom Of women
and keeps a harem in which 900 women
are slaves in darkest bondage.

sultan possesses, and one of the first
