the John Haviland. farm was shot last
evening and after repeated efforts to
bail out the attempt was abandoned.

distance of fifteen miles, with Shaw
half way between. Shaw now has two
splendid oil wells. Drilling is in prog
ress on the Woods land, about one half
mile east Of town, and will bring in the
well the last of the week. Drilling will
begin about one mile north of town in
few days, as the machinery is all on
the ground and a. company will begin
operations in about thirty days west
of town
The Berger farm. one mile north of
town, was purchased a few days ago
for consideration of $4,000. The farm
consists mainly of bluff land The

Sir LANG a Curve Pitcher.

Washington. April 2s.-Sir LANG, the
Chinese minister. who succeeded the
wonderful WI Ting Fang, is evidently
determined to live up to his predeees-
sor's high water mark of popularity
with the American people. Possibly Sir
LANG has no press agent, but If he
hasn't it is because he does not seem to
need one. Comes there now q New
Yorker, one F. B. F'orstberg of name,
who calmly states that Sir Liang can
pitch a curve ball that is a wonder,
and that when it comes to roofing for
the home team, Sir Liang is all right.

Herr Pohl. president Of the German
Society for the Protection Of Cats, has
Just published the results OF his inves.
tigation in regard 10 the age which
z is possible for these animals 10 at.
tain.
Cats, he says. are like human beings
in one respect. The more peaceful
and better regulated their life is the
longer they are likely 10 live. AS n
proof. he points out that a favorIte
cat in the royal castle OF Nymphcn.
burg has lived TO be forty.two years
old. and consequently may fairly claim
20 be considered the dean OF cats in
Germany.
That this remarkable animal has
stlll some youth In her is evident from
the fact that she gave birth 10 a kit.
ten two years ago. Moreover. the kit
ten thrived wonderfully and attracted
much attention when IL was exhibited
at the exposition In Breslau.
