IN TIL: OIL COUNTRY.
North Penn OIL Company Gets u Good
Well Mar Aivy In Tyler County-A
Sumbcr of Wells to he Started.


The report received In Sistersville to
the effect that the South Penn OIL
Company had gotten monster well In
the Gordon sand on the .Abncr Whar-
ton farm near Alvy. on Saturday, IL
correct and has caused q great deal of
excitement among the fraternity in
all parts OF the southwest. When the
we'll was drilled 10 the top of the sand
1t had good gas pressure and was
showing some oil and as soon as the
cap was pierced It commenced to fill
up rapidly and was soon flowing. The
well was reported to be good for four
hundred barrels day and 1t Is believed
now to be doing even more than that
amount.
The well Is located IN the back part
OF Tyler county In territory that has
not been tested and Is one OF the most
important drilled In for some time on
the West Virginia side OF the river.
This Is the first well drilled to the Cor
don sand In that section that has been
good.
Another important well drilled in
lately Is that OF Moses & Company on
the Hughes heirs farm out In the vi
entity OF the Sancho territory recently
opened up by the Carter Oil Company
This well was drilled in yesterday
morning and Is reported here to-day to
be doing in the nc.ghborhood OF one
hundred barrels day. This is the Sec
ond well drilled on this farm. both OF
which are good producers.
Tisere Is n great deal OF new work
starting out in the Sancho territory
now. All the farms In that section
have been leased and the leases arc
held by So many that It will make busi-
ness good for some time. All The peo-
Pile holding stuff will want TO drill wells
and II is expected that ten or twelve
rigs will go UP in very short time.

name trailed In the dust Of Wheellng's
streets on Sunday. This TON" Is n
noted crook. hail!ng from Chicago. and
now languishlng In the cells OF Quaker
City, Ohio. Last week a store and sa-
loon were robbed and Marshal Rose OF
Quaker City, sent a description of the
supposed thief TO Detective John NJ.
Short, OF the Baltimore & Ohio rail-
road. The description was an accurate
one, and on Thursday night, Short
bagged his man coming across the Bal
timorc & Ohio bridge spanning the
creek at Main street. On Saturday
morning Squire Fitzpatrick committed
Watson as fugitive from Justice. A
telegram brought Marshal Rose to this
city and on Sunday morning he and
Detective Short got Watson over to
Bridgeport, the latter not knowing
that the river divided the states and
hence did not fight eXtradit!on. The
inhabitants OF Quaker City have suf-

SCRANTON CHINAMEN DETAINED.
Local Example of Workings of the
Exclusion Act.

A Scranton Chinaman Is now being
held at Port Burlington, Vermont,
pending an investigation as to his
right to re-entry after trip aboard.
He AYERS that he is a merchant, men,
Der of the firm of Hong Gong & Co, of
Spruce street, and that he went to the
Flowery - ngdom on a business trip.
Postmaster Vandling received this
information Saturday in the following
letter:
Port burlington, VT, Dec. 4, 1896.
Postmaster, Scranton. Pa.
Sir:-Enclosed please find papers of q
Chinese person purporting to be a mer
chant and member of the firm of Hong
Gong & Co.. of your city. Please investi-
gate the statements in the enclosed papers
and advise this Office of the standing ard
credibility of the witnesses; also the
standing of the firm, and whether or not
the applicant performed any manual labor
other than was necessary in the perform
ance of his duties as a merchant during
the next year prior to his departure from
the United States.
The letter was signed by the deputy
revenue collector of Port Burlington.
The papers heferred to were his GER
tificate of registration and a copy of
the photograph. filed with the inter-
nal revenue collector of this district.
The photograph, which the Port Bur-
lington authorities forwarded. and
which, of course, was likeness of the
detained Chinaman, was found to cor
respond with one on file in the internal
revenue office here.
1t was also established that he was
a merchant and had been for year
prior to his return to China and as this
fills all the requirements of the law he
will in all likelihood be permitted to
come into the land of the free and
home of the brave.
Why our Celestial neighbOr took such
circular route to reach home does not
appear. but it is probable that he land
ed in British America and went across
the continent in the belief that he
would be liable to meet with less trou-
BILE in entering by way Of an eastern
state than a western state, where the
antipathy to Cinnamon is Just a tritle
greater than hereabouts.

While the magician was bowling his

playfully suggested to Nine. Patti that
she must beware of Hermann, who
was renowned thief. Hermann. with

He struck the ground on his right side

He was otherwise bruised and the
