them for the belief that they had only

difficulty that they realized what We'd

No. 3 well reverses all the ideas of
oil strikes. There is no Spindletop or
any other top about the we'll. 1t is, in
fact, SINK in a marsh where, after a
heavy rain, water stands from shoe
top to knee-deep. On that account.
much of the waste oil was easily saved,
and what has not been pumped into
the tanks lies in little lake near the
well.

There are several remark ablef atures
about the discovery. In the first place,
the company's stock is practically all In
the hands of Jennings people. E. F.
Rowson, j. P. Haber, HI. K. Midkif
and John M. Cooper are the largest
holders. Smaller blocks are scattered
among Jennings people. Some out-of-
town people have stock, o. S. Dolby of
this city being one, but it may be said
that the officers and board of directors
hold the bulk of it.
The No. well was put down by the
Jones Development Company, for a
stated sum Of money. The southern
officers entirely left it to the manager
of the drilling G company as to whether
he would go after pumper or gush-
err. He chose the latter and events jus
tilted his judgment.
The No. we'll of the company is
nearing completion and Is expected to
be as large producer as No. 3. The
driilers are working with No. 2, which
gave such a sensational exhibit few
weeks ago and then choked up, and
have hopes Of making gusher of it.
The company owns two acres of land
right where No. is, but a great deal
of nsighboring land is owned by the
compel be md by its officers individ-
ally.
Another fact of great interest is the
preparedness of the company to real
ize on it's product. The pipeline to
Jennings is complete and the work of
filling the immense storage tanks was
begun to-day. Storage tanks have al
so been built al Roanoke and points
along the ,Mermentau, oil barges have
\ been con, acted for and number OF
81 cars Erdered. The company is, in
ds at, as I'll prepared to sell oil as they

No and No. 2, and has no interest in
the Southern OH property, although
it's discoveries Will doubles stimulate
them to fresh exertions. Several new
wells in the field have already been
projected. The Crowley people, how
ever, have apparently abandoned the
field to jennings, not a Crowley rig
being at work on the Mamou prairie.

George Schaub, a well known Ger
man citizen of New Lebanon, Ohio, is
a constant reader of the Dayton Volks-
zeitung. He knows that his paper aims
to. advertise only the best in its col
umns, and when he saw Chamberlain's
Pain Balm advertised therein for lame
back, he did not hesitate in buying a
bottle of it for his wife, who for eight
weeks had suffered with the most ter
rible pains in her back and could get
no relief. He says: after using the
Pain Balm for a few days my wife said
o me, L feel as though born anew and
before using the entire contents of the
bottle the unbearable pains had en-.
tirely vanished and she could again
take up her household duties" He is
very thankful and hopes that all suf-
fering likewise will hear of her won
derful recovery. This valuable lini-
ment is for sale by all druggists.

Mixing His Metaphors.

To Lord Rosebery's famous spade
and wind" metaphor may be added two
or three lapses, not all of which are
mixed metaphors, perpetuated by Lord
Londonderry.
In 1896 Lord Londonderry threw the
house of lords into roars of laughter
during the debate on the second read
ing of the Irish land bill by gravely de-
clarlng that this Is the reason why
you have failed to settle the Irish land
question in the future as you have done
In the past"
In the course of the same speech he
concluded n period with, This Is the
keystone of the bill, are you going to
kill itT
Better still was sentence which he
uttered In 1897 when speaking once
more on the Irish land question, THAT
your lordship will see," referring to a
quotation he had Just made, endorses
up to the hilt what have said."-Tat.
