The editor of an exchange has
been taking observations on the diff.
ference between lady and a gentle
man in mounting a bicycle. He
says the lady stops, adjusts her skirts,
puts one foot upon a pedal, gives
little spring, settles lightly upon the
saddle and away she goes! The man
grabs the handle bars, stretches him.
self out behind the machine, puts one
foot upon the step, hops along upon
one leg like lame ostrich, gives a
jump, lands "kerplunk" in the sad.
die, kicks about to find the pedals
and then goes wobling along for a
rod or so before he gets his center of
gravity located.
The Hardenburg q Erb we'll on
the Hawthorne tract, below Turnkey.
vile, started pumping last week,
Wednesday, at the rate OF hirty.fve
barrels day, and is now doing TWEEN
ty.fve. This is a good well for that
territory, opening up, it is thought, a
new streak, and il will stimulate
operations there this summer. A
second rig is up on the Hawthorne
tract, and Proper Bros are ready to
drill on the Tucker farm, a short dis.
lance from the first Hard &
Erb we'll The Black we'll, on the
Garvey farm, is claimed to be doing
four to five barrels day. Ed. Pc,
guInot also has three small producers
a short distance above the station. -

The Cox well on the Spooner
tract, near Bear creek, Kingsley
township, drilled two years ago, aud
abandoned as a duster, bids fair to
yet come to the front as a producer
and may be the means of opening q
field in that section. 1t was cleaned
out and drilled several hundred feet
deeper lately, but no sand of conse.
quence was found. Last week it was
shot 10 the original sand, about 4C
f feet of which was found at depth OF
, 1,190 feet when it was first drilled
Since the shot was put in it has filled
up about 200 feet with a nice quality
f of oil, and the owners are quite con
6dent that the pay streak has been
f tapped. Mr. Cox informs US that
operations will be continued, and il
t is gratifying to know the prospects
r for good field are quite fatterinG
