A SURPRISE.
Oil Well Drilled Near Saline.
vile Makes a Remarkable
Transformation.

Lisbon Buckeye State: A well which
has been drilled on the farm Of e. s.
Moore, near Salineville, was shot last
week and an apparently dry hole trans
formed into a ten barrel well. The
experience in the well was somewhat
peculiar. It had been drilled 1900 feet
into the Beres sand and gave no en-
couraging indications Of oil. 1t was
then, after consultation among the
stockholders and promoters, decided to
abandon the we'll and seek greater en-
couragement elsewhere.
The casing was drawn and loaded
upon a wagon ready to be hauled away,
when Mr.. Moore, after further consul
tation, and upon his own RESPONSE
bility, determined to shoot the well,
as he had everything to gain and little
to lose by the operation. He had the
casing unloaded from the wagon and
replaced in the well and an emetic Of
sixty quarts Of nitro-glycerine ad-
ministered. The result was, as stated,
a ten barrel well. In less than twenty
minutes the prices Of leases upon land
in that vicinity went ballooning. and a
number Of wells will, 1t is thought. be
drilled at once.

patch was prepared to send to Minister
Conger, congratulating him upon his
release from confinement in the Pek-
ing legation. Another dispatch will be
sent to General Chaffee containing in
structions as to his future line Of ac-
ton. 1t is said at the state depart
ment that 1t is as yet too early to in
dicate by whom or in what manner
negotiation for damages and for guar
antees for the future. This phase of
the situation is still in formative state.
The capture of Peking by the allies will,
It is believed, at the state department
have a decidedly good effect in pre-
venting further disorders at Shanghai
and elsewhere in China.

showered upon the gallant little band,
scarcely four hundred marines, that
has for SO long time defended the
legations against the day and night at
tacks of thousands of Chinese soldiers.
This defense, it is said, will take rank
in the history of the world with that
of Thermopylae, and will not suffer in
the comparison.
From details that have so far come to
hand, the capture Of Peking was not
captured without struggle. 1t is be-
lieved, however, that the Chinese i'm
perial forces had been withdrawn. as
pointed out in these dispatches yester-
day, and that there was no organized
resistance. 1t was simply the associa-
tion Of an unorganized mob of Boxers
and Revolutionists that the allied
forces had to overcome and against the
trained maneuvers Of the Americans,
Europeans and japanese soldiers these
could offer little resistance.
Sir Claude Mcdonald, the British
minister in Peking, in one of the early
dispatches he succeeded in getting
through the lines had suggested that
the east gate offered the easiest means
Of entrance to the allied forces and 1t
was at this point that they concen-
trated their main attack. In this final
fight 1t appears that the Americans and
japanese led the way.
Anarchy apparently reigns in Peking.
The best information at hand is to
the effect that the empress and emperor
left the city a week ago under the es-
cort Of Ii Ping Heng's ten thousand
troops. Where they have gone is
largely conjecture, as yet, but it is be-
lieved they have gone to Hsi An Flu,
one hundred miles west of Peking in
the interior. Upon the allied troops
will devolve the duty of restoring order
in Peking.

Mansfield Farmer Wouldn't Put
His Money In Bank, and
Burglars Visited Him.

Mansfield, Aug. 1s.-Andrew Brandt,
farmer, aged 73 years, appeared in
police court this morning and reported
that his home at Steam Corners, Nor
row county, was burglarized while he
and w. H. Long and family were at
tending a reunion of the Sherman Bri-
gade at Crestline this week. He claims
that 81 100 belonging to him were stolen
by the burglars. He sold half in
terest in his farm last April for $1,000,
and instead of putting the amount in
a bank he kept 1t in the house, having
had fears that the bank might breax.
1t was this money that was stolen. The
robbery was not discovered until he
and the rest of the family returned
from Crestline.

WORKING The MAILS.

Chicago, Aug. 1s.-The work Of the
Republican congressional committee is
in full swing and the United States
government is contributing it's share
to keep it running smoothly at the
smallest possible expense. Speeches
made in congress are frankable under
United States postal laws and the gov
ernment printing office furnishes the
envelopes. In the campaign of 1896 the
government printing office furnished
twenty-five millions Of these envelopes
and carried that number Of speeches
free in the mails.
