cause, for ten miles from Columbia, all
roads have been treated 20 the "clay

It was a pleasant skim, but then the

cessive and appealed to the Circuit Court,
although it cost him that amount to ap-
peal Judge Benet dismissed the appeal
on the ground that the Cross Hill Mayor
stated Steadman had pleaded guilty.
Steadman denied this, so he appealed to
the Supreme Court. This court saw
merit In the appeal, and has ordered a
rehearing before the Circuit Court. So
for selling a bottle of malt extract Stead
man will get into at beast four courts.
He has spent several times his fine in

OIL FOUND MANY YEARs AGO.

Referring to the discovery of oil indi-
cations in the Ooala section, County Com
missioner Ed. l.. Wartmann Of Citra says
that about fourteen years ago when
James A. Harris was having an artesian
well bored on his place at Citra an oil
stream was struck at depth of 500 feet,
after boring through a strata of kennel
coal. The oil was in sufficient quantity
to grease the large well ropes for dis
lance of two or three hundred feet. MIR.
Harris confirms this story. In a letter, he
says: Il bored the well al Citra TO the
depth OF $50 feet. At one place quite a
little oil would come up with the water,
a scum would form on top II allowed to
stand for any considerable time" MIR.
Hamilton, who is a professional well
borer and has sunk many wells, aAso
confirms the story. He says II is the
deepest well that he has bored in this
section. and contains the most decided
indications OF oil. Options on supposed
oil lands are still being secured. but moth
ing definite can be known until well
IS sunk, and an oil reservoir is or is not
reached.

Church, and has already entered upon
the probationary period. Miss Brosnan
is in her 18th year. and for years past
has been a student at the Mount de Sales
Academy, in Macon. Several weeks ago
she graduated from that institution with
first honors, her record in all departments
being the highest that could be made.
She came home in April last to acquaint
her parents with her determination TO
take the veil, and to secure their con-
sent, which was not lacking. Hundreds
of friends OF this young Christian wo-
man in Albany are not surprised that
she has decided to give her life to a work
of charity and mercy. Since childhood
she has given evidence of deep religious
convictions, and has looked upon the more
serious side of life.
