Calm After the Storm, but the
Work Of Drilling Wells Goes on.
NINE WELLS IN PROGRESS.
Carter Oil Company is Having Office
Machine Shop and Warehouse Built on
Underwood Farm.

There Is a temporary lull In the
oil excitement In Brooke county,
but the companies that have leased
the land about Bethany are contin'
uing their activity and the loca-
ton and drilling of wells goes
merrily on. The fear entertained
among the staid residents OF the
little college town that the oil ex'
element would corrupt the village
has not been realized and although
there Is a daily coming and going
of prospectors and oil men the vii
lage maintains Its wonted decorum.
All told there are nine wells
either drilling or In preparation in
the Bethany field. The Carter OIL
company Is building a number
of rigs and will shortly
have men boring FIVE holes:
Cy. Ferguson, Of Mcdonald, will
begin drilling a we'll today.
The Andrews we'll Is being bored
through ,he sand and Is due this
week. It Is owned by the North
western on company, who own the
Hukill we'll, which caused snch ex'
element a few weeks ago. The
Il
Bowman we'll will be due next
week.
The same air of mystery which
surrounded the Hukill well when
1t first came In maintains. A mum
Der of men have left but the we'll IS
still. kept under close surveillance
so that 1t Is impossible to learn
anything about it. Bethanyites are
watching closely the Andrews well
of the Northwestern company and
will make an effort to ascertain
what 1t will flow.
There Is no more leasing of land
as every available inch has been ia
ken up. Quite number OF the
Carter oil people were In Bethany
Yesterday. They optioned all the
available timber land In the vicin-
lily of Bethany.
The Carter OH company Is dis
playing great activity In the oil
field. An Office on the Underwood
farm has been almost completed
and Is about ready for the root
That they are there to stay Is
shown by the fact that the COM
pauy Is also having erected ma
chine shop and a ware room They
have leased two and one half acres
of laad on the Underwood farm.
The work on their pipe lines Is
progressing rapidly.

RIOTING
Is Charge Preferred Against Picnic Fight

Is Charge Preferred Against Picnic Fight
ers.
In a tree for all fight at picnic
held at the mouth of Reas run,
Saturday, some eighteen or twenty
people mixed things up and as a
result FIVE of them, three men and
two women, are now locked In the
county jail awaiting action OF the
grand jury. For a plumber of years
past every picnic held at that place
has resulted in a general fight and
it seems that the one of Saturday
was In keeping with It's predeces-
sors.
The fight Is said to have started
between two small boys and was
afterwards taken up by their elders,
resulting In general riot. Shortly
after the fight started, Squire H
c. Gift, who was present, called on
the participants to cease fighting,
and together with Mr.. John Stew
art, an ex marshal of Slstersville,
undertook to quiet them, and got
decidedly the worst of the deal.
Accordingly a charge OF rioting
was placed against Tom Beaver,
Jacob Farnsworth, Tom Farnswortb,
Lottie Farnsworth and Lucy Farms
worth. They were all held to the
grand jury under $500 bond each
and being unable to furnish same
