AT SHALLOW DEPTH.
An Eye Opener to all Who Are in
Doubt.

bOuEb.
Yesterday, while the Jennings
Haywood Oil Syndicate was drill
ing water well preparatory to
beginning drilling their oil well,
a strong flow of oil was struck at
ITO feet. The flow was steady
and by far the strongest yet
struck in the Jennings field ex-
cept when the Jennings Oil Co.
No. /, struck that flow which
proved to be the gusher that has
given the Jennings field the fame
it now enjoys, viz: the only gush-
er proposition yet struck outside
of Spindle Top Heights. In a
very few minutes the sluice tank
was covered with oil as pure and
of the same quality as that OBJ
tanned from Jennings No. l.
The strike caused furry Of
excitement among the few who
saw it, and several people made
a grand rush for the Office of the
company in search of stock, hop
ing to get 1t cheap before the
company was aware of the strike.
Their disappointment was palp-
able when informed that the well
was owned by corporation com
prising nine individuals, namely:
s. A. Spencer, [. D. L. Williams,
DR.. A. d. Wilkins, TIC Mahafey,
Frank r. Jaenke and the four
Haywood Bros, that the compa-
ny had no stock for sale and that
no stock could be sold in this
particular well separate from an
interest in the company's entire
holdings, comprising 25O0 acres,
most of which adjoins this locA.
ton, the well having been located
near the centre Of the holding ).
Mr.. Alba Haywood, president
of the jennings Hey wood Oil syn
dicate, says that as soon us the
water well is completed they will
begin drilling for oil, and that he
will keep the public posted as to
the depth so that all who desire
may be present when they pass
through the oil strata with the
big drill.
AS this; oil was struck at least
23O feet nearer the surface than
any other in the field, and as it is
solmuch stronger showing than
any other, the company are in
great hopes of striking gusher
at a much less depth than the
jennings No. l.
Keep watch on the RECORD as it
will only be two or three days be
fore this vein will be struck wit b
the big drill. AS the Jennings;
Haywood Oil Syndicate is Il close
corporation. with no stock foI
sale, there is no desire on the
part of the owners to publish
aggeratod reports.

Good Word For Cromwell.

At a meeting of the Irish Literary So
ciety, says the Tablet, where Cromwell
was denounced as an archplunderer and
prosecutor who could commit the most
appalling massacres with the name of
God on his lips and the Bible in his
hand" strange thing happened. The
question was asked from the platform
had anyone a good word to say for
Cromwell? Could anyone dare? Then,
amidst an audience that had applauded
the speakers words to the echo uprose
a solitary figure. Cromwell, he said
had been just to Jews: and he seemed
to speak with racial feeling. That
bread, flung by Cromwell upon Jewish
waters, while he dyed Catholic seas
with blood, returned to him. after many
days. in a quarter the least to be ex-
pected. The audience was surprised by
the apparition of the man with the
good word; and it was also touched.

( in New York City who are seeking to
place their money in a more profita-
bic place than the savings bank. Many
OF these are young men employed as
clerks at a salary of from $40 to $2J
week.
These young men have in view the
gaining of d small competence. pos
siblv the rearing of families. In or
der to do this they feel that their saw
ings must be well invested, and thus
insure themselves against old age,
sickness, accident and loss of posi-
ton.
There are" said Mr.. sherman the
other day. more young men in this
city than one would think who wrestle
night and day with the problem of
how to get on. The majority of them
are ambitious youth from the coun-
try who have come here to seek for
tune. They haven't any illusions
about the easiness with which money
can be earned. They have, in some
measure. graduated from the Univer-
sitv of Hardknocks. They realize that
ability counts above all ease: that to
have any hope of success they must
take constant risks in which lie dan

Mr. Sherman says he knows men in
New York City's garrets of the finest
intellectual power. of artistic make
up. who haven't the faculty of COM
bining brains and money, who lack
the business instinct, who don't know
how to value themselves. For them
the city is a poverty-stricken hole.
They are the prey, in a fashion, Of
those who have the business instinct,
Mr.. sherman says that in his daily
contact with these ambitious young
men he has seen many rise TO places
of large gain. In 1897 one came to
him and said that he was getting
about $50 d week as a clerk in a down
towr commission Office. but intended
TO quit. as he had no hope to rise.
He advised him to ask his employers
for different sort of work. He did
so. they tried him on outside work.
and today he is earning $4,000 a year.
This is but one of the many examples
which make Mr.. Sherman hopeful for

Nae vatican LibrarH.

The Vatican library contains about
$4,000 manuscripts. of which 2,164 are
Oriental 1858 Greek, and 1859 Latin.
The work Of making a descriptive cata-
logue of this famous library was begun
toward the end of the fifteenth century,
but was much impeded by the contribu-
tons that were constantly pouring in.
Very valuable collections were donated
to the Vatican by Prince Macmillan of
Bavaria, the Duke of Urbina and Queen
Christina of Sweden. The catalogues
of all the collections were in manu-
script until Leo XIII directed a COM
plete and descriptive catalogue Of the
entire library to be printed and pub
lished. This affored great pleasure to
the litterateuTs. who have always de-
sired to know the treasures contained
in this ancient collection of the popes.
