NATIONAL DEBTS

Uncle Sam has economical trouble
Of his own, but there are others worse
OF than him. In 1875 the United
States was third on the list of debt-la-
den nations. and now We are down to
sixth, which means that our condition
has been relatively bettered one-half.
Americans pay less per capita in the
liquidation of their debts than do the
people of any other nations cents.
About S1.15O, 600 600 Of the worlds sub
stance goes annually for this debt.
Happily. too, we pay less usurious
interest on our debts than most ma
tons. In 1875 Mexico paid is per cent
interest, Spain 10. Turkey and Peru
10. Egypt S, and so down 10 England,
which seldom pays much oyer 3 per
cent.
France has the biggest national debt
on record-s6, 900, 100000, with an in
terest charge of s1Sp.OOO,OOO annually,
or not tar from 50 per capita.
Spain is in danger of beating the rec
ord for per capita debt. She seems TO
be getting ready to choose between the
alternative of reputation or ruin.
Debt is rapidly destroying several
countries. including Italy, France and
Spain. When TO SPANS enormous
debt is fastened a rate of interest so
ruinous that it would quickly crush al
most any mercantile concern the end
is not difficult to see.
Despite our enormous pension list
and other bills, this nation is very for

Albert &. Baggs Has Not Been Seen for n
Week.
Albert G. Bags, financial secretary
of the Bridgeport Knights of Pythias
Lodge, has been missing since last Sat
urday, and none of his friends appear
to have the slightest knowledge of his
whereabouts.
Baggs has been pretty intimate for a
time with a girl named May, living at
Mrs. Bunch's, at Fulton. He is al
legged to have spent considerable cash
in this way, and few days before
Christmas sent the girl check on the
Bridgeport National Bank for S25, sign
ed, "A. G. Baggs, auditor" The
check went through the bank at Wheel
ing, but was dishonored at the Bridge
port bank, for want of funds to

OIL NEWS.

Special to the Register o
Sistersville, w. Va. January
Great excitement prevails here to-iisI'
over the latest news from ben"oou'
which coming from good authority,
places the production or Mcf ailan ~,
Nos. 3 and at 10 and 10 parreis aa
hour. respectively. These weils canie
in late this evening and the news
snread like wild fire. Both wells "neh
drilled in spouted oil a consideraple
distance above the top OF the So-loot
derricks. making one of the grandest
scenes ever witnessed in that district.
II is very seldom that more than one
we'll is seen flowing in this manner at
the same time, and owing TO the proA-
unity of these wells it was looked upon
as great freak, and all who could
leave their business went over 10 VIII
ness the sight. At s o'clock they were
still flowing. These wells belong TO
the Liberty Oil Co., and to say that
thev are iubilant over their good luck
would be expressing it mildly.
This company's No. l came IN at the
rate of 80 barrels about three weeks
ago and is now making a daily produc-
ton of 165 barrels. These people are
surely very lucky in obtaining such a
valuable piece of property, and their
present production is the cream of the
pool and indicates that they are in the
center of the pool.

Two gnnners from BROOKLYN found a
boat on ledge at Long Island, which
aroused the suspicion that someone was
drowned. The boat was partly filed with
water, and grip bearing the name :'Rev

could be offered, aud the family was
greatly relieved when the missing man
put IN an appearance. In the darkness
his bout struck the ledge. As the wind
