AT FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH.

The members of Admiral Foote post
No. II, G.. A. r., Admiral Foote Wo-
mans Relief corps No. 8, and Nathan
Hale camp No. 1, Sons of Veterans, at
tended Memorial day service at the
First Baptist church, last night, which
was conducted by the pastor, Rev. Ad-
Olson e. Moore.
The organizations occupied seats in
the center of the church and every re-
naming seat in the large auditorium
was filled by the great congregation
present. Large and small flags, bunt-
ing and potted plants had been used
to good effect in the decorations. The
church presented an inspiring and
beautiful appearance. The usual
church choir was assisted by an anti
phona1 choir and other music rendered
was excellent.
The Rev. Mr.. Moore preached a pa
triotic sermon, in which he alluded to
the present war as the act of God, for
the purpose of establishing free and
righteous forms Of government He
said that as the soldiers of to-day go
in to battle their hearts will be fired
by the valor of the gray-haired veter-
ans and their minds will be stirred by
love of country and delights of liberty
that all will be swept before them.

Mr.. Baldwin possessed to an eminent
degree the happy faculty of always
looking on the best side of everything
and of everybody. Whether the result
of early and excellent religious train
ing, or the accompaniment of superb
ly magnanimous nature, he accepted
every event as a manifestation OF be-
neficent providence. Correlatively he
believed that men are honest and no
BILE, their actions inspired by pure and
exalted motives 1t was impossible to
convince him that any man was radi-
cally bad. He always had excuses to
offer. There must be extenuating cir
cumstances, he urged. The facts could
not be as represented. Were the whole
truth known the man would appear
more sinned against than sinful. He
never tired of shielding the unfortunate
from harsh judgments. Naturally,
therefore, friends sprang up along his
path as flowers in springtime. He will
be mourned from the cataracts of the
Nile to the Golden Horn and in every
capital in Europe. Men love those in
whom they can confide without fear of
exposure. Men honor those who hide
away their own poignant griefs and
only show that they, too, have suffered
by quick and spontaneous sympathies
with the suffering.
No word of complaint was ever franz
ed by Mr.. Baldwin's lips. During his
last illness, though urged to take the
rest that might have prolonged life, he
would continue to perform the loving
duties which made life sweet and with
out which life to him was not worth
living. To his mind the possession of
wealth but brought increased obliga-
tion-high social position made virtue
conspicuously obligatory.
His companionship was delightful.
His conversation was charmingly stor-
ed with incident from travel, expert
ence, keen observation and sure judg-
ment Generosity, hospitality and
charity were the graces who awaited
him in the morning and who stayed
with him all the day long.
He was very handsome. He was so
ruddy and active that those who knew
him intimately can hardly believe the
record that he was born seventy-four
years ago. He was put together on
such lines of strength and grace that it
seemed as if the dread conqueror might
be fought off for a compromise of a
century of vigor followed by an imper-
ceptible shading into the realm of spir-
it's. When the activities of mourning
are over, and the terrible days of lonely
reflection have come, then his friends
may begin to realize the nature and the
extent of their loss.

Big Price for a Broken Heart.

Not long since Danville, III.
Jury ordered the male defendant in
breach of promise case to pay
the competent sum of S54,333. 80 to
the afflicted fair one. Though it
is a pretty high estimate of blighted
affection, there is another estimate
which, if not in dollars and cents
exactly as high, yet in general con-
sideration of excellence reaches as
lofty an altitude. This is the es,
innate of the people as to the eff
cacy of Hostetters Stomach Bitters
as remedy for constipation. The
action of this gentle but effective
laxative is never accompanied by
the gripping so marked in the oper'
alton OF most cathartics. 1t is an
incompatible remedy for and pre-,
ventive of malarial, rheumatic and
kidney complaints, and a promoter
of appetite and sleep.

Obituary Notice.

Mrs. Nancy Simms Mccoy, nee
Cookies, was born December 3oth,
1926, and died at her home on
Pursley, Tyler county, W. Va,
August 10th, 1898, aged II years,
7 months and 10 days.
She was married to Jas. c. Nc
Coy, December 1st, 1858. To them
were born six children, and FIVE OF
these, with the husband and father,
survive her.
Mrs. Mccoy had been sorely at
ficted for thirty years, but endured
her Affections patiently.
She united with the NJ. E. church
south in 1880. For several weeks
prior to her death she had pre-
monition that her days were almost
numbered and expressed her will
ingness and readiness to depart.
In her last hours she said: "All is
WE'LL" and that lit would be a
happy meeting on the other shore,
that Jesus would be there to meet
her" Consciousness remained till
almost the last moment. She was
laid to rest among kindred IN
Archer's cemetery.

want to be ready to commence

There will be wells commenced
at once on Martin, Them and. Will

This field is showing up now for
big oil center and will materially
boom Sistersville as everything
must be hauled from that place.
There are few farms here yet that
could be leased at fair prices. Some
within 400 yards of wells drilling
on the Williamson farm. There
is no doubt about this making an
oil center now. 1t will only be a
few weeks until there will be doz.
ems of wells here and plenty of
work doing. REPORTER.

He Had Been Caught Stealing Conn
missary stores From the Troops In
Santiago.
Santiago, Aug. 1S.-Early Mon
day morning a Cuban was shot by
a sentry, who caught him stealing
commissary stores at the dock.
Sunday it was found that enough
goods had been stolen to make
three cart loads, which had been
taken out surreptitiously to the
Cubans in the field.
The man under suspicion return
ed to the wharf Sunday night.
seemingly with the intention of
continuing his thefts but he was
warned off. Early in the morning,
he was again found there. When
the sentry challenged him he ran,
refusing to obey the order to halt.
AS he was likely to escape the
sentry fired and killed him. 1t was
found that he had been stealing.
The occurrence is regretted by
General Wood and the American
officers generally, but it probably
will have a salutary effect, as raids
on the commissary, medical and
Red Cross stores have been too
frequent to be tolerated.
The rainy season has now set In
with torrents daily. The troops
are being moved none too soon, as
the physicians are all agreed that
their condition would have been
greatly aggravated by the rain.

The news from the fields is of

The news from the fields is OF a
tame nature, with few incidents
worthy of mention. In most cases
the drill is moving within defined
limits and the caliber Of the wells
completed is of too small moment
to cause any excitement. The tu'
ture, however, holds many posi-
bilities and the operator is reasona-
bly, certain to overstep defined lines
Not until this condition material
ICES will operations be interesting.
The majority of the operators are
at the present time giving more at
tention to old wells and production
than to new pools and new produc-
ton. After their present produc-
has been increased to its utmost
capacity then they consider itample
time to lcok around for new terri
tory.
We understand some new work
will be started shortly to the south
west of the Elk Fork pool. Just
when this work will be commenced
is not known, but it is safe to say
that whatever work is at the present
contemplated will be completed be-
fore winter.
Childe1s & Co. have not yet made
any other locations on the Clark
Smith farm in the Hebron pool.
The South Penn Oil company is
drilling a we'll on the Meter farm
lust across the line and they will
await its completion before starting
their No. d. The we'll on the
Metzer' should be completed by
Tuesday, and the Carter Oil COM
paws No. rs A. Broadwater will
be due about the same time.
Cusick, Jones & Co. are also due
Monday at their venture on the Ca
trel farm.
On Middle Island creek Capt. j.
T. Jones is due today at his No. I
Tom Marshal. At a late hour no
word could be had from it. We
are informed bv Mr.. c. c. McCor-
mick that their No. Martin yester-
day made 1o7 barrels. This is a
great deal more than was at first
expected OF the we'll and has caused
them to make at least three more
locations. Not much is heard con-
corning the strike on the Hender-
son farm near Williamstown and
the talent is averse to believing
that a pool of any consequence has
been tapped.
There is every reason to believe
that in short time there will be a
very important extension OF the
Elk Fork pool to the northeast.
For a long time it was the general
opinion that there was nothing to
the north end of the field in any
direction but during the past couple
of months there have been some
wells drilled in up there which,
though not of the gusher variety,
have been good producers and are
criterion of what may be found
there later on.
At the present time there are
several wells of importance drilling
in that section, one of which should
be in the sand the early part OF
next week. The we'll being drilled
on the Clendennning lease by Har-
vey and others should be in the
sand not later than Monday if they
do not have any bad luck, and as it
is some distance ahead of develop
ments it is being watched very
closely, and should it come in

cradle territory,

good producer will open up consid-
cradle territory,
Flack & Co. have the rig up and
will commence drilling in couple
OF days at their we'll on the Hen
thorn lease. This we'll is ahead Of
developments and will be an impor-
tant test.
The South Penn Oil company
has considerable territory up in the
northeastern extension of the pool,
and they are making preparations
to drill their holdings. On the Cum
ningham farm they have made two
locations, and will commence build
ing the rigs at once. The timbers
and all other material are on the
ground, and the wells should be
rigging up the early part o. the
coming week.
A wildcat we'll of some import
arce will be that which Yoke & Co.
have made the location for on the
Morrow farm over on Wolf Pen,
near the Wetzel county line. This
we'll is a rank wildcat, and will be
watched with much interest by the
talent.
Those famous new wells near
Marietta on the West Virginia side
of the river in Wood county, and
which have been reported by the
newspapers down that way as pro-
ducing from 200 to 500 barrels a
day, are producing by actual guage
20 and 40 barrels each day. They
are not such warm stuff after all.
THE MARSHAL WELL.
Captain J. T. Jones No. I Thos.
Marshal on Middle Island creek
was today drilled into the Iniun
sand and is showing up for a splen-
did producer: This we'll is located
northwest of developments at a con-
siderable distance, and shows quite
an extension to that pool. Mr..
Armstrong, Jones competent man
ager, has been persistent in his
efforts to locate a pool in that local
ity, and it would seem now that his
efforts would be rewarded.
EVERETT, W. VA.
Special to the Review.
There is quite boom here now
since the two good wells came in
last Sunday on the Martin farm.
Nicely & Co.'S No. 2 Martin lease
is good for 200 barrels per day, and
is pumping a little more than that
amount now. Some oil men think
that it will make considerably more
than a 2oo-barrel we'll when prop.
erly put in shape.
Holden & Barnsdall's Martin No.
2 is reported a good well-about as
good as Nicely & Co.'S No. 2, but
the owners are not SO anxious to
give out the figures Of its produc-
ton.
These two wells coming in good
are booming things wonderfully.
The we'll on the N. B. William
son farm is going down slowly, as
the contractors are having trouble
with the machinery. If this we'll
comes in good it will open up a big
lot of territory. 1t now looks
like an oil field and there will be
dozens of wells drilled in the near
future.
Holden, Barnsdau & company
and others have looked up a block
of land one mile and a half south
west of the Martin farm and have
located we'll and are building
rig on the John Former farm. They
