much for tho Stage. but suppose that
the literary portion OF journalism is
held down by its commercial interests
even as the better part OF the drama
IS stunted in the same way. 1t does
seem, however, that this great Govern
ment, which pays for schools and Ii
Draries and art galleries, might spend
some portion of its wealth in endowing
the theatre. My heart aches to see
how the stage has fallen and how little
l can do for it. Though we blame
everyone else, much of the degeneracy
OF the period is due to the vanity and
egotism of the so-called stars them
selves. Most of these people are so
anxious to succeed that they forget the
better side of their work completely
Play, playwright and players must give
way to selfishness that detracts from
all concerned. These aspirants forget
that they are but interpreting-tha on
the stage the author is the soul and
the actor but the body. They cease to
care for the perspective in the pictures
presented and endeavor to make all the
interest center about themselves.

OIL N EWS.

During the past week or ten days the
excitement in regard to the strike of
the Carter Oil Company, on the Bogy
Smith farm, in the northeast extern
sion of the Elk run pool, has been
growing greater each day, and at the
present time there is a great deal of
new work starting and in contempla-
ton over there The Smith well, men
ton OF which has been made in these
columns several times, is making bet
ter than fifteen barrels day natural,
and there is not the least doubt but
that it will do even better than that
amount after it has been put in good
shape for operating The we'll is locat-
ed in tract of about 1000 acres, and
the company which owns it is making
preparations to drill their holdings as
rapidly as possible. Already they have
made the locations for a number of
wells on different farms, and the rigs
for some of them are being started.
There will be four or five wells started
at once and the others will be started
as soon as it is possible to get the rigs
up and the necessary material on the
ground.
One great drawback the people oper-
ating in that section have had during
the past week has been that they have
not been able to get material across the
river from Sistersville. With the execp-
ton Of the Carter Oil Company none
of the people operating in that sec
ticn have any material on the Ohio
side, and they have been greatly hand
icapped in getting the stuff over Yes
terday one or two of the supply COM
7 panies were hauling stuff across the
kiyer on a sled The ice was not very

non quite a lot of stuff was sent

Southampton, Eng, December IL
To the interviewers who besleged the
American peace commissioners here to-
day before they sailed for New YORK
on board the American line steamer ST.
Louis. the commissioners said they
could not discuss the terms OF the
treaty of peace with Spain.
Whitelaw Reed and Judge Day were
much interested in the interview of the
Manila correspondent of the Associated
Press with Rear Admiral Dewey, hut
they would not discuss either that mat
ter or the protest made by Agoncillo,
the representative of Aguinaldo, the
Philippine leader. Judge Day said the
treaty of peace would probably be de-
livered to President Mckinley on De-
cember "a, but he added, it was inn
possible to say whether it would be
presented to the present Senate or
that which comes into Office in March
next. This, the judge added, is mat
ter which the President will decide.

WITH POSITIONS IN THE COM
BINE.
With the exception of the Laughlil
works at Martins Ferry, the local til
plants that joined the trust and hav,
been idle for two weeks, for the pur
pose of taking an inventory of stock
Vill resume work tomorrow. Notice.
@ this effect were posted in both the
LaBelle and the Aetna Standard plants
yesterday morning.
The evening paper which boasts sc
strongly of alleged beats on morn
ing contemporaries, yesterday scored
another beat" by coming out under
bold headlines and declaring that the
LaBelle tin department would likely re-
main idle for an indenite period and
might not resume before the middle of
February. 1t is possible that the same
paper may admit this morning that it
took rather unnecessary gloomy view
OF the situation. The article stated
that there was likely to be a.
row between the LaBelle company and
the employees before the RESUMPTION.
AS yet the row has not taken place.
as the employees generally are pleased
with the prospects of going back to
work soon.
The same situation prevails at the
Aetna-Standard. Notices were also
posted in that plant yesterday morn
Ing that work would be started Monday.
During the two weeks that the LaBelle
and Aetna-Standard plants were idle
a complete Inventory of stock was
taken and everything turned over to
the trust. which will be in control
hereafter. The Laughlin did not stop
Cantil after the other two plants and
will not start up for a couple of weeks
yet. As previously published in the
Register, the Laughlin has also gone
into the trust, and will be turned over
to the combine as soon as the taking of
stock is finished.
The facts concerning the organiza-
ton of the trust and the election of
officers have been previously published
in this paper. The Register on We'd
tuesday, published the list of officers that
were slated for election According to
the programme, Daniel G. Reid was
elected president at meeting of the
stockholders held in Chicago on Thurs
day. VIM. B. Leeds was chosen first
vice president, and VIM T. Graham,
second vice president Mr.. Graham
has resigned as president of the Aetna
Standard Company to accept his new
position as one of the managers of the
trust. In addition to being second vice
president, Mr.. Graham was also elected
as member of the board of directors,
