WEEKLY olLREvIEY,

Not for several years past has there
been as much interest conferred In the
old oil ne;ds as At ne present time. says
ID. s. W." in his weekly review. The
sltuadon.diRers somewhat from that OF
the past when the consumption was In
excess Of the production. Usually there
were odds and ends. so 20 speak, in the
old helds that could be drilled Tor small
wells. Work OF That character had It's
influence by increasing the production
and the old producing wells by moro
careful attention usually responded in q
like manner. Two or more months
have now elapsed sincs the old methods
were revived, but they have mot brought
former results. There seems 70 be ut
tie or no reserve territory In the old
fields, with the old fields Invested Of
Irritable territory. the only remedy to
maintain the production Will be the de.
YelOpment OF the rev territory. and
after!au the efforts IN that direction
during the present year, II Is clearly
much easier matter to suggest the
remedy than accomplish the ends. In
the expired ten months there has mot
been new pool discovered this side OF
West Virginia, and With one exception
the Mountain State has done little in
supplying new territory or new pools.

Gaze.

citizens of the county with the intention
OF having him removed from office, COM
menced yesterday morning in the cir
cult court OF the county. out OF forty
or fifty charges preferred. only fourteen
were sustained upon demurrer, and.
judging from the statements made to
the Jury by the attorney for the defend
ant, Judge Melvin, these cannot be pro-
ven.
All forenoon was taken up In selecting
Jury to try the case. In the afternoon
the attorneys made their statements to
the Jury. ]. Howard Holt, for the
plaintiffs, and Judge Melvin, Of Wheel
ing, for the plaintiff. The charges set
out and name quite number OF orders
which were drawn without any author
fly from the court and without con-
tract for the work done. In denial OF
this, certified copies OF contracts and OF
the records OF the court wer shown ana
1t will be clearly proven that everything
was done according to law. The com
mittee appointed at a meeting Of the
citizens 10 make an Investigation and
prefer the charges, did not ask the as
sistauce OF the county clerk or the
commissioners, and the result was that
they overlooked many things and made
what now seem to be false accusations.
Some clerical errors have beer made by
the clerk, for example, in drawing an
order for 81, O97. the clerk made 1t $l,oIs,
reversing the last two figures This
misled the committee and is the basis
OF one Of the charges.
When the certified copies Of the con-
tracts and copies OF court records were
produced by Judge Melvin in his adj

SERVICE.

Very unfortunate was the personal en-
counter that occurred last evening about
Z o'ctock, IN the alley above Ninth street
between Market and Main. between Po-
lice omcers William Trautwein and
Charles Landmeyer. night officers on
beats in the upper part OF the city. The
men are said to have had an old grudge
which was the cause Of their coming to-
gether at the place mentioned. The
tight attracted large crowd, curious TO
see two blue coated guardians of the
peace giving the public an example Of
what they oughtn't to do.
Someone telephoned to police head
quarters, and officer Walker was sent
up on the run to quell the disturbance
When he arrived. Landmeyer was on the
ground andTrautwein holding him down
and counseling him to be quiet and con.
sent that their differences be adjusted
amIcably. To this, however, Land-
meyer would not consent, and said ne
wanted to lick his man or get licked. At
this stage. officer Walker interfered ana

first time how serious was the little at-
fair that had Just closed. Both went 10
their homes and took on their uniforms
Chief OF Police Bennett was informed
of the affair and lost no time in making
a thorough and impartial investigation.
The two offending officers were called In
and told their stories. The chief did not
hesitate in giving his verdict-dlsmissal
from the force. This action was taken
in the face OF the fact that both Traut-
vein and Landmeyer had excellent re-
cords on the force, but the chief felt that
the ofrense was one of such seriousness
that 1t would be tnRdVisable TO indulge
in any clemency.
Now that the affair has ended, both of
the ex-ofHcers are sorry that they allow
ed their tempers TO overbalance their
Judgment Of the fitness Of things. Traut-
vein went on the force when Chief Ben
nett assumed office nearly four years ago,
and Landmeyer became regular about
year ago.
1t was learned last night that Traut-
vein and Landmeyer would appear in
police court this morning to answer the

A pocKET FULL or CHINk.

/ yearn to be poet and I'm trying mighty
hard
To be a top notch dreamer and real sky
scraping bard.

them empty trash,
And say, "The gods forbid that should ever
write for cashl"
I'm doing everything can to tune my classic
ear
So that the muses. whispers shall be all the
sounds l hear,
And yet there come those moments when
earth's sweetest song, think,
Is the bewitching jingle of a pocket full Of
chink.
OF course find it pleasant just to soar around
and round
The brow of fair Olympus where poetic themes
abound,
But, oh, to budding poets it would prove
precious boon
If old Olymp would open up good free lunch

For while feel that poetry is splendid in its
way,
/ find I'm really more in need of three square
meals a day.
I'd trade thousand muses. for my fill of meat
and drink
long to hear the jingle of pocket full of
chink.
An inspiration mighty fine to stir the poets
breast,
But good corned beef is better far for rounding
out the vest
And while yearn to let my thoughts in grace
full couplets troop
Such things are disappointing when fellow
longs for soup.
I'd like to be the second cook in some real good

And my poetic license will very gladly sell
For two good dollars, round and hard-I long

And listen to the music of a pocket full of

worst of it. Every one has his weak
point; every one has his faults. We
may make the worst of these. We
may fix our attention constantly
upon these. But we may also make
the best of one another. We may
forgive even as we hope to be for
given. We may put ourselves in the
place of others and ask what we
should wish to be done to us and
thought of us were we in their
place. Bv loving whatever is low
able in those around us love will
