ers,

After four weeks of hard work, the
ten teams of the Wheeling League are
gradually settling down to the places
in the race that each team thinks they
ought to have, and n there, they VIII
battle as though their very existence
was at stake, to hold their places. In
las, weeks games the Robbers man
aged to drop one to the Big Show fell
lows on Monday. Then the A. A. Root
ers presented the Rough Riders with
three. but it looked as though the Root
ers didn't feel inclined TO do it and
caused the PRECIPITATION TO break out
on Henning at various times. Again
on Wednesday, the sunny Brooks lost
n which was eagerly gathered in. by
the Columbia fellows. Thursday night
Bill Detwiller's gang demonstrated TO
the Terminus fellows that the Oeeolas
will first have to be consulted as TO
who stays neal the top of the bunch.
The All Alike and Wheeling contest
was the best Of the season so far, but
the latter proved too many for the boys
with the coy little club room against

On Saturday evening. September

On Saturday evening. September 22d,
one OF the greatest oil wells ever drilled was
drilled into the sand down on Sand Fork
Creek, in Lewis County, w. Va. The well
started off flowing 1000 barrels each day,
and is still flowing $500 barrels each day
The well produced ever 100000 in first 30
days. Within SO hours after the we'll began
flowing the promoters or organizers of the
Sand Fork Oil & Gas Co, were on the ground
securing leases. They secured 1900 acres
of choice property, well located and now very
valuable.
A corporation has been formed under the
name of the Sand Fork Oil & Gas Co. BY w.
l.. Russell, prominent in oil circles; l.. G. Dill
lon and Chas. N. Hancher, of the firm of
Dillon & Hancher, the well known jewelers.
of Wheeling; Arson H. Russell, of Akron,
Ohio, and DR.. w. w. McMullen, of Dillon
vale, Ohio. These gentlemen constitute the
Board of Directors, with w. L. Russell pres
ident, |. G. Dillon treasurer, and Arson H.
Russell secretary. The promoters and organ
izers of the company believe this to be one
of the greatest opportunities to make a great
deal of money from a small investment IN
Oil PROPERTY since the DAYS OF Pit Hole and OH City.
They want to give their friends and acquaintance a
chance to make a paying investment, They teel conf
dent the company will prove a financial success, that
the stock will advance above par. The territory IS well
located in new oil country that bids far to rival the
great oil fields of Pennsylvania. They believe the de-
velopement of this property will prove to be one Of the
most valuable oil propertesin the country.
Over $4,000 of the 100000 stock offered has
already been applied for without any solicitation what
ever. The applicants only knew OF the property and
of the formation Of the company.
