tiatine for a series of games with DEM

HERALD pennsnt is the cause of great
enthusiasm among the base ball lovers
over the entire country and Tucson
wants to fly the banner. Ell Paso wants
it and it will likely remain at home,

William Henry Exley died sud
denly about noon yesterday. at the
home of his son, VIM. H. Exley, IT,,
No. 40 Thirteenth street.
His illness dates back about three
weeks About that time he returned
from a brief sojourn at Atlantic City,
contracting a cold while crossing the
mountains. This developed into pneu-
monia, and Mr.. Exley remained on his
feet for a few days, but was finally
compelled to go to bed. He had made
his home at the Stamm House for
many years, but his condition became
SO serious that he was removed to the
home of his son. There he received
careful attention, and gradually be-
came better.
Sunday Mr.. Exley's condition vas SO
much improved that he expressed the
opinion that he would be out within a
few days. When he arose yesterday
morning, he remarked that he had
slept exceptionally well, and felt better
than at any time since leaving Atlantic
City. He went down stairs and was
called upon by Mr.. John Bodley, who
has been his closest friends for many
years. The two were chatting pleas
antly, Mr.. Exley sitting in a chair,
when he was suddenly attacked with
a CONFUSION, and within an incredibly
short space Of time he was dead. Mr..
Eodley called for a stimulant, but be-
fore he had a chance to place it to the
lips of Mr.. Exley, life was extinct.
Mr.. Exley was born April Sth, 1888.
His father was VIM. B. Exley, a con-
tractor and carpenter. William learn
ed the trade of his father and worked
at it for a number of years, succeed
ing to his fathers business after his
death, and conducting it very success
fully for a number of years. In 1867 he
married Mrs. Elizabeth Chambers, who
died t~Wenty-four years ago. MI. tx
ley then retired from business. His
only child, VIM. H, Jr., is a member
of the firm of Exley, Watkins & Co.,
preserve manufacturers.
Mr.. Exley was not a church member,
but was an attendant and contributor
at the Fourth street M. E. church. in
politics he was an ardent and uncom-
promising Republican.
Few men in Mr.. Exley's sphere OF
lire were D0LIer kuOWu VI ulOlC uCoClf
edly popular. His friends were legion.
He had no enemies. He found no en-
ioyment in the pursuit of wealth, but
sought happiness, and contentment
In the travel which his modest means
made possible, and in the companion
ship OF a coterie of friends Of congen-
ial temperament. He possessed a Jo-
vial disposition, with the happy facul-
ty of making friends developed in an
unusual degree. To patrons and habit
ues OF the Stamm House. he was en-
deared by his warm-heartedness, n
his sunny nature. He was fond of a
Joke, and was equally happy as per-
petrator or victim. During recent
wears he has spent considerable time
in travel, generally in company with
Col. Bodley, with whom he drove over
the greater portion of West Virginia
and Southern Pennsylvania.
Col. Exley's personal probity has
never been questioned. A frank open
countenance, such as his, could not
veil dishonesty or deceit. He was char
liable in word and deed. He discour-
aged evil report, and was always ready
TO open his modest purse to an appeal
from deserving charity. Arrangements
fo- his funeral will be made to-day.

The finding Of oil on Sand Fork. Lew
lis county, where the great Copldy
gusher is located, is a GOd-send to a
class of poor people in that county, and
the many who have earned only a de-
cent living by the honest sweat of their
brow have prospects now OF becoming
millionaires. These people came most
ly direct from down-trodden Ireland and
were common day laborers on the con-
structiOn of the B. & O. in the early
sixties, section hands many of them.
They crossed the waters seeking their
fortunes and risking their fates on the
golden shores of America. They land-
ed here as poor as Jobs turkey, but
worked and saved until they had an Sl00
or so, and then they went to Lewis
county and settled along the Sand
Fork, on a tract of land of about $1,000
acres owned by the late G.. d. Camden,
OF this city; Minter Bailey, of Weston,
and R..P. Camden, of Parkersburg, be-
ing known as the Camden, Bailey &
Camden lands. These natives of Erin
invested their small earnings in small
farms ranging from so to 200 acres,
comprising Is, 1000 acres in all. Suisse
qrently the remainder of the tract was
divided among the heirs of Camden,
Bailey & Camden. Sprigg Camden, an
erterprislng young business man OF
Parkersburg, was R. P. Camden's sole
heir. and he still has large holdings in
the great Lewis county Oil belt. Bailey's
heirs live in Weston and have disposed
of considerable of their share of the
tract. Since Judge Camden's death,
several years ago., his heirs have dis
posed of a good deal of their portion of
the land, but in every instance wisely
retained the oil and gas interests.
Several thousand acres of this terri
tory lie in close proximity to the Cop
ley gusher and is leased in the main
by the South Penn Oil Company, who
Will begin immediate development. 1t
is understood an 100 acre tract owned
by Mrs. NJ. NJ. Sommers. of this city,
mother of Mr.. Camden Sommers, edi-
tor of the County Mail, and Mrs. Chas.
ii. fancy, Of Wheeling, will be devel-
oped first, owing to the fact that it is
situated directly between the Ok well
a. Beale's Mill, the pioneer successful
test of that territory, and the big Cop
ley well, now making 5000 barrels
daily.
Verify, a fortune is in store for Mrs.
Sommers and the other heirs of Judge
Camden, as we'll as the Irish peasants
along Sand Fork.
