The Ruling Passion.

Since vaccination has become all
the rage among the school children,
interesting incidents have come to
light, as they always do in connection
with events of like importance and the
majority contain a vein of humor.
A laughable episode with petite
Miss Helen Moore, the seven year old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Moore
of East Second street, as the stellar
character, has been brought to the no
tice of the Gazette. Miss Helen cour-
ageously braved the ordeal of vaccin-
nation as performed by DR.. Hoyt, but
a glance at her injured arm caused her
to fall in faint.
She was tenderly picked up and
placed upon table that she might the
more quickly revive. While the ply
slcian and her mother were anxlously
bending over the PROSTATE and uncon-
scious child, she slowly opened her
eyes and directed her gaze at her
mother. The awful stiffness was brok-
en- by Miss Helen's observation:
Mamma, Dear, your hat isn't on
straight" Spasmodic laughter took
possession of the physician, and the
mothers fears speedily vanished.

Hail to the Oregon,

America has reason to be proud of
the battleship Oregon. Her record
stands alone, both for seaworthiness
and fighting power.
Just one year ago, or, to be more ex-
act, on March 10, 1898, she left San
Francisco for her long journey around
the Horn, to be ready for any emer-
gency that might develop on the At
lantic oast Two months afterward she
reached Florida, and after a journey
of 14,0,J knots she was said to be
ready for duty. She Immediately took
her place with the blockading fleet off
Santiago, and forty days afterward she
was in the chick Of the fight, rendering
matchless service with her big guns,
and aided by her great speed.
In the fall, about the middle of Octo-
Der, she was ordered to the Philippines
She commenced her long return trip
around South America. A year after
she first left San Francisco she report
ed at Manila Bay in good order and
again ready for duty. Sue made the
voyage of 10000 knots in a leisurely
way without an attempt at speed, but
she made it safely and is today in
ship shape and fit for any service.
This matchless steamer made the
5000 knots from Honolulu in twenty
six days, though, as we said, she was
not hurried. No battleship on the face
of the waters fthe earth has such
record. We are proud of her She is
American built and American manned,
ftingly typifying Americas superior
ity in more ways than one. All hail
the Oregon,-Cincinnati Commercial
Tribune.

Strike Made by an Indiana Woman
in the KIondike.

Mishawaka, Ind, March 2S.-Mrs. r.
E. Wilklow, for many ears engaged as
school teacher in various parts of
Northern Indiana cities, writes her
father, DR.. j. F. Grimes, of this city,
that a serious state of affairs exists in
the gold fields of Alaska and that
many deaths are occurring, scurvy and
diabetes being the fatal maladies. The
writer further announces that nearly
60 tons of mail are frozen up on the Yu-
kon river below Dawson City, and
that she has not heard from home
since last July.
Mrs. Wilklow is believed to be the
only woman actively engaged in min
ing in the Klondike country. She
owns claim and a cabin IA miles
from Dawson, and is personally en-
gagged in developing this claim, her
companion being Mrs. Sweeney, of
Seattle, whom she induced to accomp-
any her when she left for Alaska
claim has turned out to be a rich one,
and she says that she will clean up"
between $4,000 and $4,000 within the
next six or eight months, after nat she
will bid farewell to those isolated re-
gions.

An Anti-POyertY Scheme.

New Zealand is engaged in a novel
attempt at abolishing pauperism by
system OF old age pensions. By an act
OF legislature it is provided that "ev-
cry citizen OF New Zealand, man or
woman, who has lived twenty-five
years in the colony is entitled to a
pension of 800 a year after reaching
the age Of 65 years, unless she or he
has an independent income of $40 a
year" If the income exceeds $17O the
amount of pension is lessened IS for
each additional s. of income, so that
when a persons income reaches $3.50
a year he or she receives no pension.
II the person has accumulated proper
ty he or she is entitled to the pension
OF 800 unless the property is worth
$l,625, when the pension is scaled
down as the value of the property in
creases until when 1t aggregates
$4,000 no pension is received. This
pension is only $3.50 a month, but it
may do great deal toward lessening
the evils OF poverty. The plan is to
be tried for three years. when the act
will be either repealed or amended.
The great objection to the law is that
in order to be entitled to it's provisions
the citizens must appear and plead
poverty, which is generally regarded
as a stigma that will attach to the
pensioners. The rest of the world
will await the result of the New Zea-
land experiment with a great deal of
interest.-Derrick.

Principal Booker T. Washington, Of
the Normal and Industrial Institute
at Tuskegee, Ala, has been invited to
deliver a lecture before the Blrming-
ham lyceum of Birmingham, Ala. The
lyceum is composed exclusively of the
most cultured and intellectual white
men and women of that city, and their
invitation to Mr.. Washington is the
first, doubtless, which has ever been
extended to negro by a similar
Southern organization. The South is

Oil Notes.
YESTERDAYS MARKET.

Mr.. Scott and associates have the
rig timbers out for awel lon the Har-
rls farm on Dodge's Run, just west OF
town, and drilling will begin there in
a short time.
Mr.. Edwards was out on Indian Run
last Sunday with Mr.. James. Cain, OF
Sand Hill, and made seven locations
ON the farm of Harvey Stage. Six OF
them are for the first Cow Run sand
and one for the second. A drilling
machine is now standing on the car In
the railroad yard here which will be
used to drill the wells just as soon as
they can manage to. get Ii into the
field.
McVay got dry hole on the Taig
farm at Newell's Run Tuesday night.
In that field, however, there has been
some very good wells come in the past
| week.
No. Wftteklnd, wnlcn was drilled
in by the United States Oil Co., on
Tuesday and Is showing to be good
for 300 barrels, is located about 300
feet to the northeast of the Big Rab-
bit we'll which was thousand barrel
well when first drilled in. There is a
very strong flow of gas from the No. Z
and the oil was not so much in evil
dence- as iat first reported, although it
is without doubt very good we'll.
The Cassiday No. has been drilled
through the Big Injun sand and was
dry there. 1t will be drilled to the
Berea before 1t is given up.
Tie No. Deem well on the Uhl
farm at Boaz, was drilled in on Tues
l'day and is good producer.
The well on the Ames farm below
Belpre is nearing the sand and will be
watched with considerable interest
from now on. Some people, including
oil men, have considerable faith in
that section and believe pool exists
on that side of the river.
The we'll on the Whitaker farm,
south of Scio, owned by Jennings &
Co., and worked as a mystery for more
than week, was drilled in today and
is showing for 40 barrels a day. The
location is about one mile south of the
town, and shows a southern extension
to previous developments. The show
ing made since the we'll has been drill
ed in justifes the expressed opinion
that it had been shut down when drill
ed into the sand to secure additional
leases.
There were 1923 wells completedinthe
Scio field during the present month
Six were non-producers The volume
of new production was estimated at
$50 barrels, or an average of 81 1-3 to
the well. In January the average was
As barrels and in February 40 barrels
10 the well. The number of wells
drilling at the close OF this month is
smaller than at the close of February
Fewer wells are drilling on town lots
than in January or February. The
United States Oil Co., Jennings & Co.
and Meyers & Brown are the most ac-
lively engaged in developing the ter
ritory.
