TEACHERS MEETING.

The Northside Teachers Associa-
ton met in regular session at the
high school building Saturday, Jan.
18th.
After roll call current items of
interest we're presented by several
members. Mr.. Race spoke of the
late State Association at St. Paul and
in connection, in an amusing way,
stated that Mr.. Gullette, a member of
the Redwood Falls Association, had
committed matrimony while there.
BY a unanimous vote Mr.. Gullette
was made an honorary member of
the Northside section.
Following this came discussion
of pertinent questions, some prov
ing very interesting.
At 2:4O p. m. the literary work
was taken up and conducted by: S.
]. Race. Before beginning the reg
ular class work Mr.. Race gave a
ten minute talk, presenting as he
said, ''The funny side of Emerson. -
This was we'll received, it proving
quite a revelation to some that
Emerson had ever made such mirth
provoking remarks as were quoted.
The time remaining was spent in
reading and Analysing the first part
of the essay, The Fortune of the
Republic, the leading idea i'm
pressed being, Direction must be
drawn from a superior force or there
will be no good work. y

In Parkersburg.

Last night an unprovoked assault was
made by three young men upon a
woman and boy at the corner of
First and Ann streets in front of
Wright's saloon. The ruffians assault
ed and beat a woman who was going
along the street, and the boy, who is
a driver for the Transfer Co., went ov-
er to the corner with some others,
when the three men set upon him and
beat him pretty badly. A telephone
message was sent to police headquart-
ers, but before Ditman and Fleming
could get down there the parties had
left.
Search was made for them in the
lower end of town and Fleming fired
revolver at several fellows who ran
when they saw him coming. Parties
who were in the vicinity when the
fight occurred say that three young
men named Taylor, Scullen and Peslle.
wait committed the assault.
There have been no arrests made VI

THE OHIO DAM.
If Wheeling Gets One Marietta viii
Get One Also,

Our readers are familiar with the
fact that it has been currently reported
that the committee on Rivers and
Harbors appropriation had cut Mari
eta ont Of the bill to be presented to
Congress Monday. Such was the case,
but. Hon. H. c. Vanvoorhls found it
to be so and the Marietta Board of
Trade found it to be so.
The Board of Trade began opera
tions by communicating with Major
Bixby and Hon. H. C. VanVoorhis be-
gan by communicating with the Board
of Trade and they have been working
hard for the last ten days to get the
appropriation for the Marietta i'm
provement replaced IN the bill
Up to Friday night the members of
the Board had retained some hope, but
when Friday evening came and no
news from Washington, except what
was in the papers saying no appropria-
ton, they lost hope, but on saturday
morning Mr.. anVoorhis, who has
been untiring in his efforts for the re-
instatement of the cause for Marietta
sent the following telegram, which ex-
plains itself:
House of representatives,
Washington, d. c., Jan. 81.
]. H. Grafton, President of Board of
Trade, Marietta, O.:
Marietta dam provided for in River
and Harbor bill.
H. C. VANVOORHIS.
The above brief telegram conveys
the good news that Congressman Van
Voorhis has succeeded in having the
sum of $S50,000 included in the bill to
be reported Monday for dam at Ma
rletta, $4,000 of said amount to be
available Immediately after said bill is
passed.

THE SCIO FIELD.

Pittsburg, Jan. 20-The Scio field
now has 80 wells reported in the list
OF guages, having an aggregate daily
production Of 1850 barrels. The pipe
line runs from the field on Thursday
were 1880 barrels. The Allegheny
Oil Co. has the largest production.
1t has eight producing wells making
$40 barrels a day. Jennings & 20. are
next with six producing wells with 23O
barrels a day. Caldwell & Boyer
have three producing wells making ITO
barrels a day. The Connoton Valley
Oil &c Gas Co.'S well on the College
Athletic grounds is the largest pro-
ducer and is credited with 100 barrels
day.
The sale of the Scio Oil C Gas Co s
holdings to Emery Myers and Henry
w. Brown for 100000 was very gener-
ally discussed by oil men today. 1t
was not known until the deal had been
almost consummated that the Man
nington parties had entered negotia-
tions for the property. When the big
deal was discussed it seemed the con-
census of opinion that the price paid
was not too high, all things considered
A high official of one of the largest
producing companies gave it as his
opinion that the purchaser has secured
good bargain and that it would still
be good purchase had they paid
much higher price. The retiring COM
pany made handsome profit and is
relieved of the annoyance and many
difficulties of operating large proper
ty with only limited experience and
small capital. To properly protect a
part of the lease, it will be necessary
to begin active operations at once and
such is the purpose of the new owners.
The o. M. Russell wildcat on the
McLandborough, located more than
two miles southwest of the town, is re-
ported in the sand tonight and had
some oil and lot of salt water in the
hole. The indications are favorable
for small producer. A rumor was
in circulation today to the effect that
the Wallace & Co. well on the Amos
farm, to the northeast, had not been
drilled in and the owners were mon
keying" with it for purpose. The re-
port that the well had been shot last
Thursday seems to have been prema-
ture. The owners are not novices in
the business and if the rumor referred
to is correct, it will be no surprise, for
it had been predicted that they would
be in no hurry to give out the true
facts.
