OIL PLANT SOLD.

Lima, O., May THE Standard Oil
company today took possession of the
Century Oil company's refinery, which
places the Standard in complete pos
session of the lower oil fields The
Century's plant was placed in the hands
of a receiver short time ago and was
purchased by John E. Borne, of New
York, who has now turned it over to
the Standard.
The Moundsville Echo says: "The
news from the big Alex" we'll this
morning is that the gas is too strong
for the pump valves to work, conse-
quently the well does not pump regu-
larly, but she is making the accumula-
tion in the tank that gives her good
rating. A prevalent opinion among
operators is that the big Alex" is
close to the gas anticlinal and wells
put down farther east, will probably
come in more gas than oil The North
Penn. No. seems to be in streak of
bad luck. About the time they got
the hole cleared of broken rope, they
broke stem, and will be delayed for a
week or two making repairs. A repre-
sentative of L. L. Thomas & Co., of
Warrington, is here today. They have
closed up 944 acres and will start rig
on the Woodruff lease, northeast of the
producers, tomorrow. From what can
be learned from jolly Bros. IS we'll, on
Toms run the last string of casing is
going in today. The Calhoun we'll, on
the Gallagher farm, is Etili churning
the tools on iron. They expect to drill
it ont and clear the well ina short
time.

the well was not agitated, as reported,

The Woman's Wednesday club has be-
gun the study of the ethloal novel, and
among the questions discussed Mt the
last meeting the following. with their
answers are few:
What are the Eravitatlng circuit
around which the entire system OF I'M
aginative literature revolves2 Love.
Take love out of literature and 1t he
comes a system OF which the grnvitat-
ing center has been unfixed.
What are the three existing schools
Of novel writing-the Ethical. the Ro-
mantle. the Naturalistic, with defini-
tion and example OF each.
What other process OF expression
took their rise almost Simultaneous
with the novel? Music and science.
Music is the distinctive form In which
mans new relation to what Is above
him has expressed itself. The novel
Is the distinctive form IN which mans
new relation to his fellow-mnn has ex-
pressed itself. Science is the distinc-
tive form In which mans new personal
nature has expressed itself.
What Is the moral purpose OF Thnck-
eray's novels, and what aspect of life
did he distinctly exhibitl His moral
purpose was reform. To blame vice. TO
abase the false, 10 sacrifice selfishness
and raise an altar 10 sweetness aud
tenderness. He distinctly exhibited
ard drew pictures OF the new polite So
ciety He exhibited the emptiness of
pretentions and uncultivated fashion.
The vulgarity OF snobbery and gilded ig-
norance, illustrlous fools. and the mis-
cries OF money worship. Henry Eh-
mond and Vanity Fair were given as
his finest historical and ethical novels.
The beautiful home of Mr.. and Mrs
C. II. Slllman, on Penn avenue, Is one
Of the residences OF Fort Worth, con-
splcuuus for It's beautiful appointments
and the exquisite taste ever manifest
In its furnishings and adornments.
Rarely can such a perfect setting he
found as n background for social
function like the one Mr. and Mrs
silllman rendered to a portion Of their
circle Of friends in honor OF their. dis
tinguished guest. MIR. Illlngsworth. OF

perfume Of many flowers, gracefully
arranged in exquisite vases all over

pleted a perfect picture In every detail.
AS the hospstalitles were not eA-
tended TO their entire large circle, but
principally to their younger and un-
married friends upon this occasion. at
no time were the beautiful rooms un-
pleasantly crowded--thus again adj

Archie White, is a graduate phar-
macist with a wide experience, and
he has built up a very large pre-
Scriptien business in connection
with his drug department owing to
the efficiency of himself and clerks.
Mr.. White also carries a large and

MOSES BULL.
One of our most highly esteemed
citizens and able lawyers is Mr..
Moses Bull, whose office is in the
First National Bank building. Mr..
Bull is truly pioneer Of the west,
coming from Michigan nearly forty
years ago, when he located in Cal
ifornia, removing to Pullman about
eight years ago, since which time
he has followed his profession. Mr..
Bull is an af1able and pleasant gen
tleman, and through his practice

all kinds, and saddle horses for
ladies or gentlemen. Horses are
also boarded by the day, week or
month, and all charges are reason
able.
C. NJ. sTEARNs.
Unless a man be endowed with
certain characteristics he can not
be made a success as an attorney
atlaw, for good lawyers are born,
not made. If this is a fact, then G.
M. Stearns was born a lawyer, for
none question his success, and none
the ability upon which that success
depended. He is an honored and
respected citizen of Pullman, and
an ornament to the bar of Whit
man county, and his worth as a
citizen and as a lawyer have made
him a host of friends. He has an
extensive and paying business, his
offices being in the First National
Bank building. Mr.. Stearns was
prominently mentioned as an avail
able candidate for lieutenant gov
ernor during the last summer, and
his party recognizes in him a
worthy parsonage for future polit-
! ical preterment

w. II. HARVEY.

Among the leading and most sue
cessful lawyers Of Whitman county
is Mr.. w. H. Harvey, whose office
is over the First National Bank.
Mr. Harvey is a man of public en-
terprise of whom Pullman may be
Justly proud, owing to the fact that
it was principally through him that
this city has one of the finest pub
lie school buildings in the entire
northwest, in which he was the
principal for the first two years
after it's erection. Mr.. Harvey mar
ried one of Pullman's most esti-
mable young ladies who was adj
mitted to the bar at the same time
he was admitted, since which time
she has been his close companion
and partner in public as well as
private life. She is as thorough an
attorney as there is in the city, and
it is owing to a good extent to her
assistance that Mr.. Harvey has met
with such Aattering success.

proven by the fact that his are Wv

are regular customers, coming y
him year after year, and never fl ,1',

duct conscientiously and honorably
and through his earnest integrity
he has made an enviable reputa-
ton. He enjoys a large practice
and is ever ready to assist IN any
public enterprise which may be adj
vantageous.
Y. E. BULL.
Another prosperous attorney of
Whitman county is Mr.. V. E. Bull,
who located here in 1899, having
come from California. He was adj
mitted to practice in this county IN
1891 and to the supreme court IN
1894, since which time success has
crowned his every effort. He is an
able lawyer and conscientious citi,
zen, who neglects nothing that will
benefit his chosen country. For
advice and able services one need
but to call at the Webb block to
find Mr.. Bull who is always will
ing and able to furnish both.
THE PALACE LIVERY STABLE.
A poor livery rig is an abomina-
ton, and Taylor Bros. have no
denominations in their establish
ment, the Palace livery stable. This
popular stable, on east Main street,
