Astute Italian oran.atist.

An Italian dramatist, unable to per-
suade any manager to produce his
play, gave a public reading of it. So
many people came that he made a
tour through Italy, thus making more
money than if the piece had been
acted, because all the profit, instead
of the authors usual 5 or 10 per cent
royalty went to him.

The Geological Survey has in course
of preparation what promises to be a
most interesting report on the oil re-
sources of Texas. 1t is estimated that
an annual output of 10000, 600 barrels
can be attained without decreasing the
supply and that tank steamers having
from 60, 900 to $4,000 barrels capacity
can transport the oil to the Atlantic
seaboard at minimum cost. Prof.
Hayes who is preparing the report
says that with coal at from Sc to $3.50
per ton barrel of oil would have a
fuel value of about SO and it is esti
mated that the oil can be sold at from
SO to 40 cents per barrel. 1t is believed,
therefore, that the oil will in time be-
come a practical competitor of coal.
The one requisite is satisfactory and
practical oil burner. Inventors are
turning their attention to this want.

/ A bold attempt 20 rob the office Of the
Pickle Company in this city was made
at an early hour Wednesday morning,
as result of which the office safe is in
ruins, but the burglars were unrewar-
ded for their labors, for nothing of value
is kept in the safe.
HEARD sMoTHERED SOUND.
At o'clock in the morning, a daugh-
ter of Charles Stickney, general mana
ger of the company, whose residence
on Third avenue is directly across the
street from the office, was awakened
by heavy, smothered sound, as though
from some kind of explosion. She ava
kened her father. but he paid little
attention to the matter and the family
again went to sleep, only to be more
thoroughly awakened an hour later by
a second explosion of greater force
than the first. Then Mr.. Stickney be-
thought himself of safe-blowers, fool
burglars ana the like, as upon two pre-
vious occasions this summer, his resi-
dcnce had been invaded Going out he
fired his revolver and heard the burglars
running away. He found one of the
Office doors open and upon entering he
discovered that an attempt had been
made to blow the safe and the strong
box was more or less shattered by ex-
plosives. He hastily secured help and
made thorough search for the bur
glars, but they had made good their
escape.
1t is said that two mysterious APP
pearing men were noticed by several
/ citizens who returned home late on
Tuesday evening. The men were APP
parently wandering about the city
without any particular object in view.
/ The fact that there have in the past
/ two months been several robberies or
/ attempted robberies in Wauwatosa has
caused citizens to become more careful
and somewhat suspicious of strangers.
! 1t is thought the burg lars were of
the same gang that held up the Stein
mier driver on the Blue Mound road
and burglarized the Park Hotel near
the fair ground day or two before.
| The tools used were taken from the
factory cooper shop. A bottle of nitro
glycerine was left in the office by the
craclIsmen.

vestigating the so-called Wisconsin
county system of caring for the insane,
a system started by the old state board
of charities about twenty years ago
and which is peculiar to this state.
The system provides for the care of the
insane in a large number of smaller
asylums rather than in a small number
OF larger asylums. In Wisconsin there
are about IS insane asylums; in Penn
sylvania only 5, The insane are cared
for in groups of 100 or SO instead of in
larger numbers as in some of the other
! states
