The New York Commercial Adver-
tiser says: Stimulated by the boom
in railroad earnings and the general
condition cf business prosperity. a
group of eastern railroad men and
New York financiers are disposed to
revive the scheme to construct an air
line railroad between New York and
Chicago. Men who command large cap
ftal have been sufficiently interested
in this project to have surveys made
and maps prepared showing approx
mately the course of the proposed new
road.
Roughly described, this proposed
railroad is to extend between New
York and Chicago in almost a straight
line. 1t will cut across the northern
part OF New Jersey and will pass
through the Mauch Chunk coal fields
in Pennsylvania. According to the
route as now marked out the new line
will skip most Of the large cities in
Pennsylvania, taking in only Oil City.
Passing through Ohio, the road
touches at Cleveland and Toledo, and
will pursue nearly a straight course
to Chicago via South Bend.
This ''air line" the prospectors de-
clare, will be more than 800 miles
shorter than any other route. Chicago
and Atlantic trains are to be run from
New York to Chicago in 16 hours
perhaps little less. One feature of
the proposed road will be the running
OF speedy freight train. For the
construction of this road some old
railroad charters would, it is said, be
made available.

Oil News
Yesterdays MARKET

The big oil well drilled in on the
Yarnell lease last week has created
quite stir in this locality. Every
available foot of land in the neighbor-
hood of the big we'll and for miles
around are being taken up at prices
that startle the natives. Thewell has
made a natural flow of so barrels per
day since she come in. A big 200 bar
rel tank was built 20 catch the oil, but
the monster flowed he tank full in its
first two days OF existence and is now
the Logan people have built dam in
order to save the oil, which is now
worth s1.68 per barrel.
The strike of this big oil we'll is
somewhat of an accident. Mr.. Logan
and his men were transporting the rig
to spot that had been agreed upon to
locate well some half mile farther
than where the big well was found,
and had only crossed the line of their
lease about 100 feet when the teams
were stuck" and after having worked
"a hours to get the rig again on the
move, gave up in despair, but finally
concluded to comence work upon a
we'll at the point the team stuck. The
workmen proceeded to jack the wheels
out of the mud and after that was
done and the rig in proper shape, pro-
ceeded to work. They proceeded with
the well to the depth of 525 feet, when
the crew were startled by loud roar
and then a spout of oil, which passed
over the top of the derrick and reach
ed the top of a giant hickory tree
near. The well has settled
down to 80 barrels daily, excepting
Wednesday of this week, when it
reached SO. The well is located five
miles southwest of Beverly.-Beverly

Applies toWashington County.

The Kinsman bill. which has passed
the house, provides that persons con-
yicted of misdemeanors and sentenced
to county jails may be required to
work out their sentences on the pub
lie highways at the rate Of go cents per
Gay. The bill, should it become law,
will be radical departure from the
present methods of dealing with such
prisoners. and may have a deterrent
effect upon crime, since, if men who
are disposed towards lawlessness and
crime may be required to do hard
manual labor instead of idling their
time away in Jail, they will be likely
to either restrain their criminal tend
encies or depart for more congenial
localities. The law will not affect
Franklin county, since it only applies
to counties having no workhouse.-

Men Must Swii.l.

department requiring enlisted men tc
be good swimmers. The records show
an alarming disability among the men

swimming with other things at train
ing stations and the navy yards where
enlisted men are recruited. The de-
partment finds that great many OF
the men, especially those of the lands
men class, who are now coming into
the navy, are not able to swim. The
exaction that such an Accomplishment
should prevail among the enlisted
force is, OF course, in the interest OF
human life.

MARIE TIA GUARDS
Examined For Admission To the
State Militia.

Acting under instructions from the
Adjutant General CT the State Militia,
Major H. M. Taylor surgeon in the
Fourth Infantry. came here from Co.
lumbus yesterday ana spent the after
noon and evening conducting the ply
steal examination of the members of
the Marietta Guards. Application has
been made to the Adjutant General for
the admission of the company to the
State Militia and upon the result of
the examination depends the admls-
sion or rejection of the company.
Care has been taken by the promot-
ers of the mavement to choose as
members of the company young men
who were physically sound so that out
of the seventy members OF the Guards
there will probably be no trouble in
securing at least fifty-two, the mini
tia, who can pass the required exam
ination. Major Taylor stated to a
Leader reporter last evening that he
never saw better company speaking
OF the physical qualifications of the
men, than the Marietta Guards.
The following members of the comp
any were examined by Major Taylor,
who was assisted by Col. Harry Knox.
William B. Scherer, William w.
Chamberlain, Henry Lang. Pearl l..
Chaplin, Walter G. Smith, Harry H.
Mccormick Nathaniel E. Venham,
Charles S. Benedict, George c. Brown,

F. Rutter, Edward d. Weber, Charles
Vandell, Novalis Z. Herger, Clarence
D. Drumm, Richard Foraker, Fred Ger
hart, Pearl S. Palmer Judson H. Hov-
ey and Fred Chamberlain.
The examination closed at eleven
o'clock, thirty-nine members of the
company having passed through the
test. Many of the members of the
company were unable to be present, as
the weather was bad and a number of
the boys work cut of town. The fact
that all were unable to be present
cannot be taken as a failure so far as
organization is concerned. Major
Taylor said that the Marietta company
made an unusually good beginning, as
it was seldom that he found so large
percentage of members present upon
first examination.
He will return to Columbus this
morning and the examination of the
remaining members of the company
will be made at time suited to their
convenience
