PHILADELPHIA MADEIDOLS
NANUFACTURER IS CONDEMNED BY THE
CLERGY
CLERGY.

Heather idols are made in Philadelphia. This
sact recently became known. 1t was not the
idol maker who announced the fact; it was a
Ccrsan. a native of Seoul, who has lately come
10 America to purchase some Yankee made gods
The Corean's disclosure CT the purpose OF his
visit has thrown TIE Philadelphia idol factory
into disrepute. Bishops. clergymen and mis-
sionaries have denounced it bitterly. Neverthe-
Jess, the manufacturer, a strange, strong Wllleo
nan, does not propose to give up making idols
For the heather to bow down to Christian made
gods is not a thing. Thousands of IDOLS
turned out in Germany each year. and many
of the outlandish little gods and fetiches that
thu Africans worship the product Of the
entorprising English town Of birmingham
Frederic Poole, missionary of Philadelphia
estima tes that a good percentage of the wor.ss
idols made by Christian nations, and Dr.
William P Wilson, the head of the Philadelphia
Commercial Museums says that the idol making
trade Of Germany is enormous.
The Philadelphia idol factory is a wooden
building Of story. Its owner is German,
and his trade used to be toy making. lie came
from Germany to Philadelphia two years ago,
and he says he took up the manufacture of idols
because a friend of his. n resident of India,
proved to him that there was 4 greater demand
for idols than for toys and that there was more
money in the idol than the toy business. Most
OF his trade is with India, and the principal
idols he makes I;uddhas and Ganeshas.
He recently permitted some photographs to be
NAE in his factory, condition that his name
be not revealed.
Il not ashamed of my business" he said.

HUGH p. FARRELLY.

Among those who have become
considerably interested in oil and gRs
properties, is Attorney Hugh p Far
reilly. He has lived and practced
law i'll Chanute since 1887, and though
busy man in his profession gener-
ally, and is engaged in most of the

ing in the Verdigris Valley at Bene-
dict, fifteen miles southwest of Cha

Fe and Missouri Pacific Railways,
and is one of the best oil properties

has drilled several wells thereon. 1t

in about thirty days.
Mr.. Farrelly is also interested inY
several other companies, at Chanute'
and other places, and is just now en-
gagged in the organization OF The Cha

lands near Chanute, and the Coy
vile, Kansas, about twenty miles
west of Chanute The investor wheth-
er he is seeking developed or unde-
veloped territory, proven and going
properties, or stock in good COM
panies, may be accommodated by Mr..

teous and straightforward manner by
him.

pany produces something of value
for them to pay upon.
The Continental is organized un-
der the laws of Arizona, which makes
its stock worcestershire forever, and
safeguards the stockholders against
any double liability The capitaliza-
ton is $Iooo,ooo, the par value OF
the stock being 81. The best possible
guarantee the stockholders can have
that the business of the company
will be honestly and successfully
managed, is the names of its officers
and directors who, for the past quar-
ter of century and more, have been
prominently identified with the busi-
ness interests of the Sunhower State.
If the reader has any idea whatever
of investing in the capital stock of
any of the many successful oil COM
panies now operating in the Kansas
field, he should first address the Sec
retary of the Continental Company

booklet entitled Opportunity"

]. d. Ogden was born in the state
of Iowa in the year I84o, His birth
place was on farm and he remained
on farm until six years ago when he
took a short rest and visited Cali
fornia. He did not like the coast
country and moved back to Kansas
where he had lived since boyhood.
Mr.. Ogden is now located in carlton
a small village seven miles south of
Chanute. He has quit farming and IS
conducting a large lumber and supply
yard in the little town. He is do
ing a vast business, as he carries
everything necessary for the builder
as we'll as all grades of lumber for
the man drilling for oil and much of
the latter is being done in and around
carlton. Mr.. Ogden still hangs on
to the old farm and is also a large
town property owner. He is the
father of five beautiful girls. Two of
them are at present living in Califor-
MIA and the balance are making life
pleasant for their industrious father
and mother who worked so hard to
accumulate the fortune they are now
possessors of.

The "play goers' of Neosho county
owe much to Mr.. Hetrick. A 100000
opera house for Chanure built by
this unassuming gentleman who has
made his money on OIL as he puts
it. Mr.. Hetrick is a native of Penn
sylvania. Raised on a farm and to
quote him accurately "had no school
in" followed farming in Kansas but
owing to the fact that he has twen-
ty-five paying wells one mile from
Chanute, he has discontinued tilling
the soil and is now building up the
coming metropolis of the West-Cha-
mute.

He was bred in old Kentuck." Mr.
Osborn is a young man of ability
who left the old blue grass state to
cast his lot with the Chanute giants
of finance, and if rumors are of any
worth, the young man is quite cap
able of doing business in the gas and
oil district of Kansas or any other
place.
Mr.. Osborn is fortunate in having
had a thorough business training in
his native state, and that coupled
with his versatility makes his success
assured. He is now occupying rich
ly furnished Offices where the oil and
gas industry is looked after in sys-
tematic way.

DYES From Petroleum.

Reports received from Kineschma,
Russia, state that attempts to adapt
aniline dyes obtained from petroleum
to calico printing have been wholly
successful. Aniline oil, obtained from
petroleum, does not contain tiofeni
and gives a color which does not turn
green. The present aniline works at
Kineschma use $1,000 pools OF petro-
leum yearly.

THE CONTINENTAL.
Its Novel Plan for Selling Stock
Company Takes the Risk.

One of the very best. of the new
companies now operating in the Cha
mute field is the Continental Oil &
Gas Company, of which w. E. Bush
of Chanute, is Secretary and Man
ager That the Company means busi-

the City treasurer of Topeka $1,000
cash forfeit, and is already engaged
in the preliminary work of securing
the right-of-way, etc.
The Company has only recently
commenced drilling operations, but
their first we'll has proven to be a
strong gasser, and the roar of the gas
when the valve is open can be plain
ly heard mile away.
The company has nearly three
thousand acres of choice holdings
near Galesburg, on the NJ. K. & I.
railroad, south of Chanute, on which
the drillers are now a, work, and
twelve hundred acres of proven oil
territory in the trend west of Cha
mute, where many of the largest oil
and gas wells yet found in the Kan
sas field have recently been brought
in. Six drilling rigs are now at work
on lands adjoining these holdings,
and our second rig will in few days,
be put to work in this territory.
The following list of directors
shows that the Company is composed
of some of the strongest and most re-
liable business men in the Sunflower

manager of the Continental Cream
cry Co., of Topeka; John Johntz,
