RALEIGH, Aug. 2S.-Dr. William II.
Capehart of the state board Of agricul.
ture, has arrived here from BERTHE county
and says the fire in Hyde county con-
tlnues and is destroying trees and soil.
The soil is peaty and burns like tinder.
One farm, valued at $4,000, is so
burned away tnat it is not now worth
800: The fire is burning far under.
meath the surface in many places.
Dr. Capehart is informed that as
farmer was driving along highway
the fire-nndermined soil gave way under
him and he and his horse, falling into
the fiery pit, were burned to death.
The smoke extends many miles at sea
and by obscuring the light at Oregon

The No. 8 on the John Boley farm,
above St. Marys, was due to reach the
pay last evening.
The Wyvell Oil Co. cleaned out their
No. Parsons and the well filled up
Immediately with oil. The we'll was
drilled in last winter and left standing
until the present time, the owners be-
ing under the impression that it was
dry hole.
Messrs. Bankson, Wyvell and Ed.
Meisenhelder went out to Buck Run,
back of Malta, today to locate their
Parsons No. 6.
The Neill Oil Co. were hauling ma
terials on the DR.. Mitchell farm yester-
day for a we'll, which will be started
by them next week.
Clark & Campbell will start to spud
on their we'll on the Ben Racer farm
today.
The Kanawha Oil Co. cleaned out
their No. SO on the John Miller farm
in Wetzel county and got a 200 barrel
producer. The we'll was drilled to the
Gordon sand and was thought to be a
dry hole until it was cleaned out with
the result recounted above.
Bankson & Wyvell will make To-
cation for their No. in the Ringold
field today
The Eastern Oil Co. are down lie
feet on their Cady No. in the Ell
Run field

The above question was asked more
than once when the Woman's Centen-
nial Association and the Marietta I'M
provement Society were considering
the advisability of joining the Ohio
Federation of Women's Clubs, and no
doubt there are many even now who
do not understand the advantages of
membership in such a federation.
1t is said that the keynote of the club
movement may be found in the single
sentence perfection, as culture con-
ceives it, is not possible while the in
dividual remains isolated" Believing
this, women band themselves into
clubs which become organized centres
Of social and intellectual culture.
What the club is to the individual
member in broadening and enrich
ing her life, in giving her the magical
element of fellowship in her intellec-
tual pursuits, that the Federation is to
the Club with the advantage of wider
outlook and larger constituency. The
delegates, who attend the annual con-
venton of the Federation, listen to
papers which treat of the great social
and intellectual problems of the day,
and hear the practical questions Of
| Club life discussed by women of eXper-
ience and ability, and they carry back
TO their home clubs new plans for
work, higher ideals and much enthus-
iasm.
From this 1t can be seen that the
first great object of the federation is a
high standard of work and the second
object is not less important, the orga-
nized extension of clubs. If there are
some clubs that are strong enough to
stand alone there are many which
need encouragement. The club which
does not need to receive should be all
the more willing to give, and the best
way to accomplish this is to join the
Federation whose aim is to reach all
the women of the state with as many
ennobling influences as possible.
"The Ohio Federation of Women'E
Clubs desires to impart permanence
dignity, breadth of aim and definite
ness of purpose to the woman's clut
movement throughout the state, Il
stands for full, completely rounded
womanhood. The complex social ant
intellectual problems of our day car
be solved only through organized eff
forts. Organization thus becomes {
sign and a test of intelligence"

DEMOCRATIC OPENING.
The date for the opening meeting of
yet a matter of doubt, except that it
will take place sometime during the
month of September to suit the con-
venience of Colonel Bryan, the Demo-
cratic presidential candidate and Ex-
Senator Hill, of New York, who, ac-
cording to the views of the Democrat
ic leaders of Ohio are the only two
worthy of the occasion. The request
of the state committee to have these
two gentlemen assigned to the open
ing meeting was entirely ignored by
National Chairman Jones, and Secre-
tary Crawford of the State Committee,
is now in Chicago to see why the COM
mittee has been thus treated and to
insist upon the presence of Bryan and
Hill at the opening in this city,
DICK AT CHICAGO.
State Chairman Dick is in Chicago
where he has gone to render valuable
assistance in getting the Chicago
bi anch of the National Republican
Headquarters organized for the cam
palgn. General Dicks abilities as a
campaign organizer are as thoroughly
appreciated by the Republicans here in
Ohio. where he has achieved so many
splendid victories for the party. A
higher compliment to his worth could
not have been paid him than when he
was selected by President Mckinley
and Senator Hanna to conduct the Ohio
campaign in behalf of Mr.. McKinley's
reelection.

sions and trades if they can be located.

satisfaction which honest dealers felt
in selling pure and honest made drugs.
