also making inquiries with d view OF
letting grading contracts. This Is
all being done with the full inten-
tion Of building the thirty-mile eX-

Washington and Madrid regarding
Cuba. La Liberal thinks that Spain
might yield to the friendly sugges-
ton from the European powers
that she give Cuba liberties com
patible with Spanish sovereignty,

Now they are out with a method
of curing dyspepsia by resting the
stomach. Their remedy is known
as the Shaker Digestive Cordial 1t
supplies food in an artifCially di-
gested form, and at the same time
aids the digestion of other foods in
the stomach. In other words, by
the use of the Shaker Digestive
Cordial, a dyspeptic virtually gets

special 10 the INcblSttIs
SISTERSVILLE, w. Va. December p
News Of a big strike out in the Sancho
territory. by the Carter Oil Company. has
reached this city. The well which that
company was drilling on the L. c. Free
land farm reached the sand about mid
night last night and when 1t was con-
nocted up with the tank made four feet
in the 80 barrel TAM, in six hours. At
this rate the we'll IS calculated good for
about SEQ barrels a day. This well Is not
very far from the other three wells now
producing on this farm, and when it has
been put 20 work II ought 10 make some
thing like 600 barrels. This is the biggest
strike made out in that territory for a
good long time. The report Of this well
was received from what is supposed to
be reliable authority and 1t is safe 10 say
that the well will make all that is claimed
for 1t. This well coming in such gusher
will surely start lots Of new work. With
in the last two weeks some good wells
have been reported out in the back part
of the county. which is plain evidence
that old Tyler county is the main standby.
These people have another well on top OF
the sand I'm this same territory and il
should reach the pay this evening or
early in the morning.
At Wick the Victor oil Company have
had bad luck with their we'll on the Aber-
man farm and as consequence they will
have to move the derrick TO another To-
cation. Their last well on the Jake Smith
farm in the McElroy district is progress

Had the City Council transacted
business, at Tuesday evenings regu-
lar meeting, there would have been laid
before the body proposition from a
well known citizen to present the city
with a handsome, modern, and thor
oughly well equipped ambulance, OF
the best possible construction, for the
free use of the public in cases of acct
dent or sickness, provided Council
would agree to provide a proper place
for the care and storage OF the vehicle.
Council could not do better than to
accept this offer in the generous spirit
in which it will be made, and provide
such a place in the rear of the City
Hall
The prospective donor desires that
his name be withheld from the public,
at least for the present, but the gift
will be applauded by all conyersant
with the great need for such an aid

been recognized that the patrol wagon,
although a long step in advance of the
old-time express wagon is not at all
jured people, particularly those suffer-
ing from fractured bones. and the ad-
vent of an ambulance. equipped with
the best appliances, will be hailed with
JOY by everyone, and by none more
than the police and the medical pro-
fession.
II is proposed at the City Hall, by
those conversant with the terms Of the
offer, that a small brick building be-
erected in the yard in the rear Of the
City Hall, and that the ambulance be
kept there, without horses. A set OF
harness, similar 10 the fire and patrol
harness, would be suspended over the
tongue, however, and in cases of calls
the patrol team could be brought over
from the Atlantic engine house in two
or three minutes. the horses hitched
TO the ambulance. and the call answer
ed. On the return, the ambulance
could be replaced i'm the house and the
team taken back 10 the Atlantic. In
this way there would be no odOr. dirt
or other contamination to the ambu-
lance. and there would be none of the
oil ections heretofore urged by city
officials 10 the erection of such a build
ing in the yard. az horses would not be
kept there at any time.
It is expected that the matter will
come before Council at Fridays spec
fal session, and the public will expect
a prompt acceptance Of the offer and a
speedy compliance with the terms in
dicated

Is Not a Candidate for U. 5. Senator,

Not Be a Meddler Either.

Indianapolis. Ind, December 9.-hX-
President Benjamin Harrison to-day
settled the controversy as to whether
he would allow his name to go before

on United States Senator, by giving
out an interview, in which he says ne

would not be a candidate. The Gen
eral made the following answer In
writing:
1T is not true I have written no
such letter. But to every one who has
sDoken to me. I have. from the time OF

main i'm private life is my desire, and

Iv selfish. for to those friends who have
urged the too friendly view that l
couId serve the country usefully in pub
lie office. | have answered that l can
probably do better service out of Of
1ice that what might say or write on
public questions as a private citizen
will be received with more confidence.
I shall also keep out of the contest as
a meddlcr My only interest is that
of a citizen. proud of his State, and the
only advice | have to give is that the
legislature shall choose a man who
will in the highest duties of the Office,
dignity the State and honor the coun-
