On the Ohio side oppositelthe
Bens Run pool, No. 3 we'll on the
Isaac Soles farm of 40 acres, was
drilled In yesterday afternoon and
is showing for 125 barrel producer
The oil Is from the Big Ipjun for
nation. Just after the we'll was
completed the escaping gas caught
fire from the boiler, consuming the
the drilling machine and cable.
The lost Is estimated at $4,000.
| A. A. Stewart was the contractor.
Boyd and Reynolds got a dry
hole on the Parker at Bens Run.
Operators on the Ohio side are
making a strong effort to discover
new pools, and are going outside
the old defined limits to search tor
them. In the old fields there IS the
! greatest activity, and IT the present
pace Is maintained to the end OF
the month the record will equal
that of June In completed work.
The discovery of any larger pools
Is hardly expected, but there Is
room for many small ones In be.
tween the old fields, and |: Is In
these intervening open spaces that
are now receiving attention.
Two miles south Of the Harper
pool In Monongalia county, Mooney
& Co. tried to locate a new pool,
and have just drilled a test on the
u. v. Scott farm through all sands,
including the Berea grit formation,
and found nothing but strong gas
pressure In the grit.
The western part of Monroe
county has more experimental
work under way than any other
locality. In the vicinity of Mil.

CAUSES OF COLDS.
one Of the Most Common Of Them II
Eating Tao Much.

The invariable cause OF colds comes
from within. moi withU... No one takes
cold when in vigorous state of health
with pure blood coursing through the
body and there is ID good reason why
any one in ordinary health should have
a cold Ii may cOLie from insufficient
exercise, breathing G foul air, want of
wholesome food. excess of food, lack of
bathing etc, but always from some
violation of the plain laws Of health.
There can be no more prolific cause
Of colds than highly seasoned foods as
well as frequent eating. These give no
time for the digestive organs TO rest
and incite an Increased flow of the di-
gestive secretiOlls Thus larger guanti-
ties of nOurishment ara absorbed than
can be properly utilized, and the result
Is an obstruction. commonly called a
"cold," which is simply an effort of the
system to eXpel the useless material
Properly speaking, ii is self poisoning.
due to an incapability of the organism
to regulate and compensate for the dis
turbance
A deficient supply of pure air to the
lungs is not only n strong predisposing
cause of colds, but a prolific source OF
much graver conditions. Pure air and
exercise are necessary to prepare the
system for the assimilation of nutri-
ment. for without them there can be no
vigorous health. The oxygen of the
air we breathe regulates the appetite
as well as the nutriT ont that is built
up in the system.
The safest and best way to avoid
colds is to sleep in room with the
windows wide open and to remain out
OF doors every day, no matter what
may be the weather. for at least two
hours, preferably with some kind of
exercise, if no more than walking. One
should not sit down TO rest while the
feet are wet or the clothing damp. A
person may go with the clothing wet
through to the skin all day if he but
keeps moving. Exercise keeps up the
circulation and prevents taking cold.
The physiologic care of colds is the
prevention of the occurrence. The per
son who does not carry around an over
supply of alimentation III his system
and furthermore secures a purified cir
culation ,Jby strict, sanitary cleanliness,
thus placing himself in Il positive con
dition, is immune to colds. a starving
man cannot take cold
A careful diet would exclude the use
Of all narcotics and all food that is not
thoroughly appropriated. An overfed
person is worse off than one who is un.
derfed. because the overfed body is
taxed TO dispose of what cannot be ap
propriated and, when not properly dis
posed of. remains only TO be an elemen,
of danger.-Scence of Health

HOW THE COUNTIES
CLOSE THE YEAR
Remarkably Good Financial Condition OF
the Several Counties of the State--AIl
Prosperous and Many with no Debts.

The close of the year finds the vari
GUS counties of the state of North
Dakota in splendid financial condition.
The examinations made by State
Examiner Tyler, soon to be reported
to the governor for the fiscal year
ending July1 lase, show that all coun-
ties of the state with Ave exceptions
have a comfortable surplus of assets
over liabilities and those counties
have reduced their debts largely in
the past pear All of the counties
have also a comfortable cash balance
in all funds, and warrants Of twenty
six ont Of thi-ty-nine counties are
payable in cash on demand from all
funds. There are half a dozen other
counties where the warrants are paid
on demand in all funds but one or two
and those are only a few months
behind.
The following table shows surplus
and cash on hand Of the several coNn-
ties, those in which there is deficit
or rather a surplus of liabilities over
assets being Indicated:

Once. so the story goes. Emperor
Nicholas of Russia asked Liszt to play
in his presence. The musician com
piled. but during the performance the
ear started conversation with an
ad-de-camp. Liszt stopped playing at
once. The czar asked what was the
matter when the emperor speaks -
said Liszt. ''every one must be silent" +"
The car smilingly took the hint and
the playing proceeded.

GOT HIS MONEY BACK
Samuel A. Dysart Square Again With
the Democratic Party.

Mr.. Samuel \. Dysart has recovered
which he advanced last fall in the lat
ter part of the county campaign at
time when the committee was about
out of funds. The money was turned
in by Mr.. Dysart in two installments
and it is said that it amounted to be-
tween 500 and $500. Mr. Dysart had
been an unsuccessful candidate for the
nomination for probate judge. He was
beaten cut of the nomination in Il way
which aroused a great deal Of adverse
sentiment in his party and before the
campaign had got very far along the
managers saw the advantage of doing
something for Mr.. Dysart.
He was promised by a majority of
the members of the executive commit
tee so FAR as that organization could
promise it, the appointment of assessor.
The members of the committee said
there was a fair understanding on this
point with the democratic candidates
for supervisor. The contribution made
by Mr.. Dysart was regarded as a reg
ular assessment.
After the election and when the ar
rangement regarding Mr.. Dysart be-
came known there was an outcry by
the faithful. In the next succeeding
three weeks it gained so much in vol
ume that the supervisors found them
selves unable to carry out any contract
they may have made with the com
mittee. The only objection that could
be raised against Mr.. Dysart was that
he had money when so many of tho
faithful had none. He subsequently
withdrew from the scramble but it was
given out by his friends that the party
could avoid the repayment of the
money he had advanced only by going
through the bankruptcy court. 1t was
also given out by the managers OF the
party that the man who should be ap-
pointed assessor should dig up the
money for Mr.. Dysart. It has been
done at any rate. The money was
paid back on Friday.
1t will be a long time before another
patriot makes another investment like
that. The investor has everything to
lose and nothing to gain. If both of
the democratic candidates for super
visor, or if even one of them had been
