OIL OPERATIONS.

Special to the Register.
PITTSBURG, Pa, October 26.-The
C0pley gusher Will be five weeks old
tomorrow and the production has gone
quite a way beyond the 100 barrel
mark. With the market at S1.t0 bar
rel. it is not hard to calculate the value
of this output in so short time. In
these latter days Of oil developments
the well is unique and its record will
net soon be surpassed. 1t is almost a
certainty that no territory exists out
side Of West Virginia that can supply
it's equal.
On the Ohio side, in the Keener sand
development, near Graysville, Monroe
county Caldwell C Boyer have complet-
ed test we'll on the II. Dillon farm
and have a 50 barrel producer. In the
same territory Bruner & Co. have drill
ed in test well on the NJ. j. Millhorn
farm and have a % barrel pumper,
Grace & Goldstein have completed
their No. 8 on the E. 0. Eaton and

ORGANIZATION GRANTED.
THIS CITY WILL HAVE A SECOND
UNITED PRESBYTERIAN
CHURCH.
DECISION OF PREsBYTERY
Of the Wheeling District After Yes
terday's Session at High Ridge, o..
The Litigation, Which Has Been
Prevalent in That Sect of This City
for Nearly Year, is Finally Ter
minated.

AT meeting of the Wheeling Presby-
terry. held at High Ridge, O., yesterday,
the organization of the Second United
Presbyterian church of Wheeling was
granted. The decision settles finally the
litigation which has existed between two
factions OF the First United Presbyterian
church congregation of this city for about
year.
1t will be remembered that on the death
of DR.. Mcclure one faction in the First
church claimed that the eo-pastor, the
Rev. ]. H. L!ttell, should succeed to the
then vacant pulpit After a number of
congregational meetings the matter was
taken before the September session of
the Presbytery at St. ClairsviHe That
body decided that Mr.. Littell was not en-
titled to the pastorship. He forthwith re-
signed the next evening at a congrega-
tional meeting, about two hundred and
fifty church members declaring their 10y
atty TO Mr.. Litten by leaving the church
The next step by the LitteIl faction, as
it was called, was to form second
church. Meetings on Sabbath have been
conducted in hall, and series of cot
tage prayer meetings started.
AT the session of the Presbytery yes
terday the Second church was represented
by the Rev. j. II. Littel The part of the
congregation known as the anti-Littell
faction claimed that the proposed new
church could not be located within the
city. They were represented by Mr.. John
NJ. Brown.
Mr.. Littell presented to the body the
petition Of the organization, signed by two
hundred and five former members of the
First church. There was some opposition
to granting the petition. Those who op-
posed the, measure were the Rev. A K.
Robinson. of Martins Ferry, o.; the Rev.
C. p. Proudfit, of Bellaire, o.; DIR. Camp
bell, of New Athens, o.; the Rev. d. d.

After the petition had been introduced
DR.. Campbell made a motion to lay on
the table until the next session. A sub
stitution to grant the motion forthwith
was lost.
A warm discussion followed, during
which Mr.. Robinson stated that it was
his opinion that in case organization was
granted the church should'be built some
where outside of the city. But ne was not
in favor of granting it.
! Mr. Proudft said heethought it was the
Presbytery's right to fix location for the
church In case it was granted organiza-
ton.
DR. Balph explained that there was no
law in the Presbytery by which any con-
dition could be attached to the organiza-
ton If it was granted.
Dr. Balph then offered an amendment
that the petition be forthwith granted.
The motion was carried without a dis
senting vote, although several did not
vote The Rev. j. Fl. Littell, Mr.. Joseph
Clemens and Mr.. D. T. Mccoy. of Bellaire,
were appointed to perfect the organiza-
ton.

Engineer O'Neil Badly
Scalded.
Bridge Was Old and About To
Be Removed.
ESPECIAL TO THE PREss.l

West Paris, December l0.-A terrible
dis,sser occurred at the iron bridge just
below this station OF the Grand Trunk
railway this forenoon at 10 20, when en-
gine No. 405, with two fat oars carry
hoislng engine and derrick, crashed
through the bridge, causing the Instant
death of the fireman, Daniel Matheson
of Stratford, n. h., and seriously injur-
ing Engineer Thomas O'Neil OF Port
land.
The bridge was one of the old fashioned
iron structures with framework and
braces overhead.
AS the train was pulling out OF the
station to go onto the siding they ran
down over this bridge and the derrick
hit the top or framework above which
is supposed to be the cause Of the dis
aster.
This bridge was soon to be reulaeed by
new one and stone has been coming
here for some time for the stone work,
The passenger train going west had
Just come over the bridge and was walt
ing on the siding to cross the passenger
train going east when the accident oc-

AS soon as the accident occurred will

unfortunate nrema1 and engineer. The
fireman was found imprisoned between
the cab ami tender. terribly manglei
and scaldtd The engineer had in some
way freed himself and jumped into the
icy water of the river and crawle1 to the
bank without assistance. He was at
once taken to the office Of Dr. A, h

"Show us how the lion goes, George,
dear"
And George showed US. He roared
six or seven times In his chair, and
then he got down on the floor to be
more realistic. He got down right In
front of Maria. and she stepped on him
and spilled some hot coffee ON the back
of his head. Then George roared In

and fed.
l had been In my room about 20 min
utes when there was rap on the door,
and in walked Jimmy Lamb. There
was an uncomfortable moment In
which l wondered whether Mrs. Lamb
had sent him down there to wallop me,
but presently he produced long, black
cigar from his pocket and offered 1t ST.

cigars he can afford, suppose. Unless

to good tobacco at the altar.
"I've been thinking about that fellow
Desprez," said he, and then he snicker-
ed in a boyish, embarrassed fashion.
Mrs. l.. didn't like the idea of your
calling George n cub. Women are silly
about these things: they don't make al
lowances. A single man naturally loses
his temper because he doesn't get any
training for it. His life's too easy. It's
like a muscle that gets no exercise. It
becomes weak. Now, l can stand any
thing, absolutely anything. But, speak
ing OF Desprez, I'm inclined to think
there may be something in what you
worth knowing. Do you suppose you
could take me down there and intro
duce me to him r.
Certainly" said |. "He lives right
by the theater In some apartments
without much of anything in them.
The front room is totally bare. That's
where he does his training. He's got a
cub or two over there. l understand.
His part Of the show is over by half
past 8, and there's a good chance that
we should find him at home before TO-"
Jimmy looked over his left shoulder
and then over his right.
'If ever you tell Mrs. L. about this"
he whispered, cts And he finished
the sentence by making a pantomime
of man jumping off pier.
Leon Desprez, the lion tanner, receiv-
ed us with great cordiality In the un-
furnished room which had described
to Jimmy Lamb. There were two cubs
in the place-at least Desprez said they
were cubs, but one of them was old
