At Mt. Wood cemetery, the detail

MARIETTA, O.. May A-The Stewart
Oil Company, of Pittshue. struck a good
Big Injun we'll on the Dye farm on Lease
Run Friday evening. and word comes here
to-day that the well will probably drill
itself in before preparations can be made
for tankage, and all indications point to a
big gusher. The well is 1880 feet deep, and
when the greasy fluid was touched by the
bit the hole filled with oil and soon filled
the tank erected in case the we'll came in
a producer The owners at once shut the
well down and stopped the flow of oil to
erect more tankage. which is almost COM
pleted, and also line which was at once
laid TO the well of the Buckeye Pipe Line
Company, of this city. who control all the
territory in the vicinity of the new strike.
Great excitement prevails here over the
strike among local oil men, as a number
of them have leases in that locality
From a conservative estimate made by
an experience oil man who was on the
premises when the well first filled with OIL
the Register man is informed that the well
was making through the casing over three
hundred barrels a day
The strike has been the cause Of several
new wells being located at once, and will
be instrumental in opening new field in
the eastern part of this county.
The well was located by "Ab" Stewart
the leader in Pittsburg oil affairs. who is
much elated over the strike. he having
first paid attention to the field after the
strike made by Rocree Bros, of this city,
. t.,
which was not of much consequence. how
ever but which convinced him that good
deep oil could be found.

JAPANESE HAIRDRESSlNG.
The Sweet little Woman Has Peculiar
Ideas About Cleanliness.

Ideas About Cleanliness.
The japanese toilet is robbed of one
of its finishing touches by the fact that
no Japanese woman, gentle or simple,
however fond she may be of looking
into the sun shaped gun metal disk, sup
ported on an artists easel, which serves
her for looking glass, ever thinks of
doing her own hair. The hair, after
having all the last week s fat (the Japa-
nese are eXasperatingly clean in their
persons) secured out of it, is pomaded
up afresh with the unctuous and not
very olfactory pleasa?t compound, cas-
tory oily, and worked into a most olab-
crate couture, more like huge glossy
black butterfly than anything else. AS
it is only dressed once or twice week,
it is never taken down except by the
barber.
But it is easy to sleep with your hair
up when your pillow is merely little
wooden door scraper, with hollow cut
in it to fit the neck, and a drawer i'll its
base to hold the ornamental hairpins.
The true japanese woman, whether
she is rich or poor, uses paper pocket
handkerchief carried in one of her long
hanging sleeves, with her tiny kiseru
(pipe) and silk tobacco pouch, and an
other pouch containing tiny comb,
mirror and pigment for coloring the
lips She wears tabi white linen socks

she inserts the strap Of delicate straw

whether it be of oiled paper or delicate

the Sairey Camp umbrella is about the
first contamination from the west which
her costume is likely to suffer.
But | must not say any more about
the dress of O-Hane San, the sweet lit
tie woman whose whole lifelong lesson,
to quote the Gonna Daigaku' (greater
learning for women), is obedience. She

JUDAISM AND HYGIENE,
Tho Mosaic Law Has Given the Hebrew
Race Vigor and Eardihood.

Tho Mosaic Law Has Given the Hebrew
Race Vigor and Hardihood.
1t is indeed not a little singular that
Christianity, i'll taking from Judaism
its highest spiritual conception, should
50 have sighted the wonderful body of
hygienic science which the Mosaic law
embodies. The explanation, however
probably is that Christianity undertook
to deal with the matters supernatural,
while Judaism, whether ancient or mod
ern, is concerned only with mundane af-
fairs AS I4ucien Wolf admits, Judaism
is really a sort of positivism. Its aim
is the attainment of happiness in this
world, whereas Christianity is chiefly
concerned about happiness in the world
to come Bu@ precisely because Judaism
agrees with Herbert Spencer, in relegat-
ing supernatural speculation to the
realm of the unknowable, the intensity
OF its worldly philosophy is the greater.
The wisdom and energy of the Jews,
in fact, have been conferred for years
upon the enforcement and protection
of all their natural forces. And thus it
is that they anticipated the ripper results
of sanitary science, while still the hang
ing gardens of Babylon We're a worlds
wonder, and while, from the temple of
Bclus, Chaldean priests charted the
heavens and calculated the occultations
Of the stars. This Mosaic law, so de-
spised of the Ccntiles, has given to the
Hebrew race that vigor and hardihood
which have brought it safely again and
again through prosecutions that must
have rooted ont weaker people, and to-
day, when the foremost savants of the
nineteenth century are painfully search.
ing out the genesis of disease and labo-
riously devising remedies, tho immuni-
ty Of tho Jews i'll the midst of pestilence
once more indicates tho reason of their
survival and emphasizes the triumph of
their sanitary system.
No other race has been willing to &C.
cept such discipline, and no other race,
therefore, exhibits similar vitality and
exemption from epidemic diseases Mod
ern teachers of hygiene insist always
upon the observance of system in these
matters, and they have reason, for the
Hebrew race is a pregnant example of
the power Of liygienic and dietary laws,
applied with unremitting yigor from
generation to generation. Minneapolis

Boadicea's Undiscovered Tomb.

Boadicea's tomb still remains undis-

feet beyond the center OF the tumulus
