Oil notes.

Developments in the lower South
west fields during the past week
were not without some interesting
features. The unexpected STAYING
qualities of some of the new produe-
ers recently completed was quite
gratifying. The gasher on the 5. s.
Eddy farm in Greene county, it was
thought, would decline rapidly, but
1t rounded out the week at the rate
of 500 barrels a day, and the test
well on the w N. Cunningham farm
in the Northeast end of the new Cor
don sand development in Wetzel and
Marion counties had record for the
corresponding time almost as good
as the Eddy we'll. One of the most
important discoveries of the week
was made in this territory when the
South Penn Oil company drilled in
its No. | on the Fairfield Peterson
farm, located in the Southwest end
of the development, anu got pro-
ducer that started to flow at the rate
OF 400 barrels when drilled into the
pay streak AS far as developed
this territory shows continuous
streak, running Northeast and
Southwest for distance of nearly 8
miles. The production at the pres
ent time Is close to 1000 barrels d
day from eight wells.

TWO CENTS
WILL UNITE.
Flints and Bottle Blowers TO get
Together


Convention lin wheellulS Expected to
Lead to Union Three Fonrths Of -
Glass Workers in the country Mn
Belong to new Union Other Business
to be Transacted.
One of the results of ths annual con-
vention Of the American Flint Glass
workers union to be held 10 Wheeling
July Z, will be the formation Of what
will be one of the largest and most
powerful organizations in the world,
The Flints and the Glass Bottle Blows
ers Association will amalgamate into
one strong union representing three-
fourths of the skilled glassworkers in
the country.
The plans fer the amalgamation
have already been perfected and have
been endorsed by the two organiza-
tions. All that is now necessary is
for the bottle blowers to send their
representatives TO the Flints coven-
ton and arrange the tinal formalities
closing the combine. The new organ
ization will be put on new basis.
New officers will be elected and new
constitution aud bylaws adopted in
joint session. The Flints and the
bottle blowers organizations after an
existence of over score OF years will
cease TO exist except in name only.
The reason for the consolidation is
that the glassworkers believe that
strong, compact organization can do
more effective work than two smaller
ones. The interests Of the members
Of both associations are identical, the
difference in their work being largely
only in the different styles OF ware
manufactured. The manufactures
would also prefer TO deal with one or
ganization than with two.
The convention OF the glassworkers
will be in many respects OF far greater
importance than the recent convection
Of theE Amalgamated association In
the first place it will be several times
as large. The Flints alone have 400
delegates and when the bottle blow
ers' delegates come the number will
be swelled to 700. The convention
continues l 6 days.
Nothing is cut aud dried, but all
questions remain to be settled by the
delegates themselves, Next to the
consolidation of the two organizations
the adjustment of the scales is the
most important business. This lies
entirely with the convention and,
there is no one-man power. a prelim-
mary conference previous to the con-
yention is held by executive council
with the manufacturers at which
ideas of the latter regarding wage
questions are obtained
The executive council reports to
the convention aud the convention
formulates the scale. After the con-
vention adjourns final conferences are
held with the manufacturers at which
the scales are signed

CROPS In GOOD SHAPE.
Temperature Has Been Favorable
During the Past Week.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE week
ly crop bulletin of the weather bureau
issued today, gives the following gen.
eral summary:
Nearly the entire country east of
the Rocky Mountains has experienced
week of highly favorable tempera-
ture conditions, and the central val
leys, Lake region, middle Atlantic
States and portions of Texas and
Oklahoma have received generally
ample, but in places unevenly distrib-
uted, rainfall. Excessive rains have
retarded farm work in northern New
England and the northern portion of
the spring wheat region.
The middle and southern Rocky
Mountain regions continue to suffer
from severe drought, with disastrous
effects to crops and live stock. Over
the western portion of the plateau re-
gion and on the Pacific coast the week
has been decidedly cool, with heavy
frosts in the plateau districts. Warm
and dry weather is much needed 10

from the central valleys, Lake region

rapidly in sections that some will be
ploughed up for other crops. Favor

except in the southern part of the

ance was not Passed last Night How
the Money is to be expended-Bon OF
Tax Collector Fixed-Other Bush
ness.
Council meet in special session on
Tuesday night to consider the ordi-
nance for proposed hond issue.
This ordinance was discussed thor
oughly and agreed upon by the mem
bers of council but it was not passed
because it was thought best not to
pass 1t on a special meeting night.
1t went over until next Monday
evening.
The ordinance provides that the
election is to be held on Monday June
2. The amount of bonds TO be issued
is $50. 900. Half of this is to be ex-
pended on sewers. 1t is estimated
that this amount will be sufficient to
extend the sewers to every part of
town not now reached making the
system complete one.
The remainder will be devoted to
paying off outstanding orders and in
extending the paving. The orders
now out amount to $3.50. These are
for paving now done. The remainder
will be used here as seems best 10 the
judgment of the council.
The bond of the tax collector and
treasurer was fixed at $40, 900. 1t
was not given last night but will be
furnished at the next meeting Of
council. Mr.. j. F. Weaver is the new
officer to serve ia this capacity
No action was taken in regard to
the police force. Some discussion
relative TO their duties was had. 1t is
likely that they will be required to
look after the condition OF the streets
as well as attend to their other du-
ties.
