Fine Well Drilled In Back of
williamstown.
The Davis Brothers oil company, of
this city, drilled in another fine we'll
on the Theo f. Davis tract back of
Williamstown on Thursday. The we'll
is good for three hundred barrels per
day in the Cow Run sand. 1t is 500
feet distant from the first we'll which
was drilled few weeks ago and started
off at $50 barrels. The two wells are
situated on a little tract of ten acres,
owned by Mr.. Davis, who also has an
interest in the wells besides his royalty.
Next to the ten acres is the Athey farm,
under lease by the Granite Oil Com
pvny, also of this city, and they will
drill in two wells today in close. prox-
unity to the Davis producers. 1t is
practically line fight, and the Granite
company's wells are certain to bs good
ones.
A valuable pool has undoubtedly
been opened up and several new loca-
tions have already been made.

Referring TO the Leaders account of
the injury to Mr.. d. S. Miller, who
walked off the B. & o. S. w. trestle, a.
Belpre, the Parkersburg Sentinel adds;
The party referred to IN the above
item is Dilman S. Miller, q solicitor
employed at the Singer Sewing Ma
chine Co.'S office in this city.
Mr.. Miller was more seriously hurt
than the above clipping would indicate.
His left arm was found to be broken
just above the wrist and the wrist bad
ly sprained. Besides this he had two
ribs broken and he mplains greatly
about his back. Itis not thought that
he is internally injured. When he
jumped from the train his cries were
heard by the train crew who came to
his assistance and he was carried to his
home on chair. Dr. Ballard was sum
moned and made the injured man as
comfortable as possible. He is still
suffering much and is badly bruised.
1t is q wonder lie was not more serious
ly hurt than was the case, as he fell
about 25 feet and among some timbers
on the ground.
