of ,he Cuban Constitutional Conven-
'tion assert that one of the delegates
has received letter from recognize 1
authority in Washington saying that If

Of the constitution before the middle
Of February and presented the same
to Congress it will be considered dur
ing the present sess Jon. The strictest
secrecy is maintained as to the sender
of The letter and as to its recipient.
Tie receipt of the letter appears to
have stimulated the Convention to ex-
ira effort to bring about an immediate
conclusion of its labors, as sessions
were held this afternoon and evening.
Governor General Wood says that
there will be no delay on his nart. and
that as soon as the Constitution is fin.

Bear Run Pool.

Considerable activity is manifest in
the shallow sand development at the
head of Bear Run ard Dana's Run,
four miles back of Newport. Washing
ton county, Ohio. A few years ago
Mr.. T. N. Barnsdall drilled a well to
the Berea grit sand on the Dye farm
at the heed of Bear Run. The well
proved to be duster in the Berea
grit, but furnished a land mark for
the present development in the first
Cow Run sand. which at present time
appears to dover considerable radius
of terrltory from the fact that consid
erable number of the Berea grit wells
which were drilled ON the NJ. Lorentz
farm and oIther farms adjoining the
Uorentz showed The regular amount of
Cow Run sand wibh a fair showing Of
oil. end no doubt would have made
fair producers from the Cow Run if
they he'd been shot and cleaned like
The Bear Run wells. The land is most
ly all leased up in the vicinity of this
pool, and holders of territory in this
section are not only confident of find
ing a shallow rool of no small proper
ticn, but THAT the prospects of finding
another Berea grit pool, laying west of
the shallow stuff in the vicinity of the
Tempeluon we'll, which is making three
barrels cer day from the Berea grit
sand and is almost one year old. Tho
showing in the Berea grit sand in this
well, together with strong gas wells
laying west OF the Templeton well, has
led many to believe that there will be
another Berea grit pool found in that
locality.

Mexican Herald: "Bull fighting Is an exciting sport said one Of the United States delegates to the Pan- American congress, who attended the exhibition yesterday, but there are several things about conducting the game, which if remeded, would make the chances of man and beast some what more even l would suggest that the "bandilleros" be abandoned and the regular matadors also be put out of the sport. Turn the bulls into the ring with man on horseoacK, the horse to have free use of his eyes and legs in dodging the animal and provide the 'picador" with sword on one end of his staff and spear on the ether and allow these three creatures to quarrel with each other until the game is over. The love for fair play will not be satisfied in witnessing the blindfolded horses go to their doom without a ghost of d chance for their lives.
