IN THE OIL FIELDS.

OiSIEhS LILLE, w. va, GcDrudTy Ia
Some time ago the South Penn Oil Co.
leased a block of 100 acres Of land from
John Seckman, out near Centreville.
Later when the Victor Oil Company
started to drill their we'll on the Furbe e
farm the South Penn gave them 6G
acres of the Secsman lease If they
would drill near the line and test the
South Penn's territory. 1t seems that
when the South Penn leased the land
part of it belonged to the heirs. When
work was commenced drilling the test
we'll the heirs showed up and demand
ed their rights. For the past couple of
months everything connected with the
lease has been tied up, but yesterday
the claim of the heirs was satisfied by
the South Penn paying them $1,000
each for their interest in the oil rights
of the lease.

The well drilled on Geo. P. Fettys
farm by DR.. lIassell and w. r. Isham,
of Wheeling, and Z. w. Russell, of this
city, is flowing immense quantities Of
salt water, second only to the big
Archer salt well, and the general opin.
ion is that it will produce oil after the
salt water is exhausted.
John 7. Shay, of Washington, Pa.
passed through town today on his way
home from the back part of the coun
ty. He reports the well on the j. 3
Smith farm drilled in by himself and
II. McMullen as making 200 barrels g
day. The well is 500 feet west of the
Hardham farm and about two mile;
from the Kyle well. The land is own
: ed by j. B. Smith, the well known mer
chant of Shirley. Messrs. Shay anc
McMullen have 400 acres under lease il
that territory and are drilling now five
wells, all of which promise to be good
producers.
The Victor Oil Company are still

SWEET BY-AND-BY."
How the Famous and Touching Hymn
Came to be Written.

Oa4hO ~ 10 w IIIlGIl.
The fact that Tom Moore wrote
Come, Ye Disconsolate" in a fit of re-
morse after a nights revel, has given
rise to many apocryphal versions of
the origin of other hymns. The story
that the music of 1.-The Sweet -by-and-
By" was written under similar condi-
tions to those of the composition of
Moore's hymn is Indignantly denied by
Samuel Fillmore Bennett, now a physi-
clan of Richmond, Ill, who is the author
of the words DR.. Bennett, who is an
ex-journalist, served in the Union army.
and after the war moved to Elkhorn.
Wis, where he started in business with
a little drug store. j. p Webster, a
well-known composer of Sunday-school
music of that time, lived in the same
town, and was an intimate friend of
Bennett The rest is best told in the
doctors own words:
Mr.. Webster, like many musicians,
was of an exceedingly nervous and
sensitive nature, mad subject to fits of
depression. One morning he came into.
the store and walked to the stove with
out speaking.
What's up now, Webster?' I asked.
It's no matter. 1t will be all right
by-and-b by.
THE idea Of the hymn came to me like
flash of sunshine said: The Sweet
By-and- BY. Everything will be right
then. Why wouldn't that make a good
hymn?
Maybe it would, he replied, gloom
lily. Turning to the desk / wrote as
rapidly as I could. In less than half an
hour. I think, the song as it stands to-
day was written. Here it is:
There's land that is fairer than day,
And by faith we can see 1t afar,
For the Father waits over the way,
10 prepare US q dwelling place there.
Chorus
In the sweet by-and-by.
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by-and-by,
We shall meet on that beautiful shore.
We shall sing on that beautiful shore
The nelodious songs OF the blest,
And our spirits shall sorrow no moro
Not sigh for tha blessing OF restl
Chorus
To our bountiful Father above
We shall offer the tribute OF praise,
For the glorious gift of His love
And the blessings that hallow our days.
Chorus.
In the meantime two friends. N. H.
Carswell and S. E. Bright, had come in.
I handed the verses to Mr.. Webster. a
little tremulous with emotion. As he
read them his eyes kindled Stepping
to the desk he began to jot down the
notes. He picked up his violin and tried
them. In ten minutes we four gentle
men were singing that song. r. r.
Crosby came in, and with tears in his
eyes, said: Gentlemen, that hymn is
immortal We were All excited, elated
Within two weeks the children Of the

then threatened to shoot Riggans for
being in Landsdales company, but the
latter rode away and escaped.
Wright, of whom little is known, dis
appeared after the shooting and has
not been seen since. Constable Ell
bridge left this evening for the scene.
Landslide is well known hereabouts,
