Scholars of Bellaire Parochial School Pass
Successful Examinations Last Night.
Quite an unusual proceeding took
place at the Catholic church last even
ing. 1t consisted in public examina-
ton of the graduates of the parochial
school. and was held in the large hall
of that institution. In order to give
public evidence of the efficiency of the
training impaired by the Sisters during
the year, the Few. Father Wehrle, the
pastor, invited the general public to an
examination of the graduates. In re-
Spouse quite large audience was
present. Father Wehrle presided, and
the examiners were the Rev. Father
McMennamin, of Benwood, and Rev.
Father Harris, of Wheeling. A thor
ough examination was gone through,
such as would be supposed to be given
in a public Higt school. 1t embraced
English, rhetoric and literature, geom-
etry, algebra, physics, the reading Of
English compositions, and the higher
branches of Christian doctrine. The
pupils responded excellently, and were
complimented by Fathers Wehrle and
Harris, for the proficiency shown
in their replies TO the various ques-
tons. These graduates will receive
their diplomas from the hands of the
Ri. Rev. Bishop Watterson, on next
Friday evening.

Sistersville. w. Va, June 2S.-There
was another drop in the oil market to-
dav and the price of credit balances
went down two cents. This is the sec
ond drop in the price of the oleaginous
fluid within the past week, and while
this NAV be the last, it looks very much
as though the toboggan had again been
properly creased by the Standard and
that a series of cuts were intended.
There is no more reason apparently for
the cuts now than there were when oil
was at the same price couple OF years
ago when il went up TO $3.50 a barrel.
The decline will stop considerable work
all over the country, and in this field
alone it is expected that not less than
twenty-five wells will be shut down.
The rig for the well on the John
Moore farm, at Proctor, in which a
large number of Sistersvile people are
interested. has been completed, and this
morning p. H. Gaffney, the contractor,
took a crew of drillers and tool dressers
up to commence work. This well is
located about a mile from the railroad
at Proctor.
The Henry Oil Company have drilled
in their No. l on the Farrell farm. in
the Benwood territory, and in the first
pay the we'll is showing up for better
than two hundred barrels a day. The
we'll will be drilled to the second pay
at once. and it is expected it will be the
equal of any of the wells drilled out
there so far.
There was a rumor current on the
| streets this afternoon that we'll had
been drilled in on the Ball farm, al
the head of Indian creek, which is re-
ported to have started eff at 60 barrels
an hour. The rumor could not be veri-
fed late this evening, but as the wei
was due in the sand it is believed a
producer has been struck. although the
amount Of oil being produced is prob
ably greatly exaggerated.
