Is This a New David Harum?''

Will N. Harben's new novel,
Abner Daniel, Is generally consid.
cred the strongest book he has
done. In Abuer Daniel himself the
novel introduces a new Southern
character whom a reviewer has de-
scribed as a David Harum of the
South" There are points of re-
semblance between the two men,
bat their character are as distinct
as the neighborhoods they hail
from-the only similarity In this
respect being that they both lived
In rural districts. The love story
is simple In It's direct appeal, and
deals with plucky young South
ern girl, who helps to save the
family fortunes of her betrothed.

GREAT SALE OF OIL PROPERTY.
The Forest OIL Company Transfers IL"
Immense Holdings TO the South

The Forest Oil Company TransleES ~"
Immense Holdings TO the South /
Penn.
At meeting of the stockholders
and directors of the Forest OH
company, held in OIL City Monday,
action was taken which resulted IN
the sale of all the properties OF the
company to the South Penn Oh
company: The officers Of the COM
pany were authorized to take the
necessary action to wind up Its
business affairs, and after paying
all debts and liabilities to distribute
the balance of the cash remaining
In the treasury among the stock.
holders In accordance with their
respective holdings. This was uu-
doubtedly the greatest sale OF pro-
ducing property ever known and
must have involved several millions
of dollars. 1t makes the South
Penn Oil company the greatest
producing organization In the world
The price paid was upon the basis
of the book or appraised value OF
the various properties owned and
controlled by the Forest OIL COM
tpany.
The Forest Oil company was or
eaniaed nearly rs years ago oy
Captain J. J. Vandergrift, and
speedily assumed large proportions.
II acquired possession of some OF
the best territory in the Bradford
field, and under the able manage
ment of Its first vice president and
general manager, ". J. Young,
made wonderful progress. For
years it has been recognized as one
of the most profitable and success
ful companies In the oil regions.
When the Standard Oh Company
went into the oil producing bust
ness it purchased all the stock oi
the FoVest Oil company.
Mr.. Young will continue d.
recting hand as first vice president
of the South Penn Oh! company
He resigned his position as general
manager and was succeeded by Mr..
E. E. Crocker, of the Forest Oh
company, who now becomes gener,
al manager of the South Penn Oh
company.
Other changes that were In.
volved by the transfer of the Forest
Oil companies properties are as
follows: S. G. Hartman, of the
Forest, was elected FIRST assistant
treasurer of the South Penn Oh
company, to fill vacancy caused by
the resignation of George W.Aoltz
who Is about to take an extended
vacation for the benefit of his
health. Mr.. B. H, Northrup YVES
elected second assistant treasurer
to fill the vacancy created by pro-
motion of Mr.. Hartman. The other
officials of the South Penn Oil com
pany continue as heretofore.
The property transferred consists
of about $500 productive wells and
Is. 900 acres of valuable oil terri
tory entirely In Pennsylvania. The
oil production will average abou,
900 barrels a day. This addition
will give the South Penn Oh com.
pauy nearly third of the total
production of the Pennsylvania
oil fields.

Will Give Two Months Teaching.
Mr.. Motley Arcenaux, teacher
of the j. G. Broussard school in
the first ward, called on The
Gazette last Saturday and re-
quested this paper to state that
he will keep his school open two
months without any pay from
the Board. Mr.. Arcenaux says
that he wants his pupils to have
the benefit of as long a term as
that of the two other schools in
the ward whose session has been
prolonged two months through
the munificence of Mr.. Alcide
Judice. The teachers of the
parish should not be expected tc
follow the example of Mr.. Arce
naux. They are too poorly paid
for their work as it is, and The
Gazette does not believe that
they are called upon to give so
much of their time without COM
pensation. However, Mr.. Arce-
naux is to be commended for his
unselfish contribution to the
cause of public education.
