Our school has closed. 1t was
instructed by A. Holmes, who IS
an excellent teacher.
Many of the children and few
of the older people are having
the measles in this neighborhood
at this time.
Messrs. Sweeney & Holmes are
cutting lumber for j. T. Jones on
the Mckay farm.
j. Lewis will move his saw mill
in few days to the Kyle farm
to cut lumber for the Carter Oil

lost such a worthy citizen from
our midst. E. Michael will move
to the Lysle farm.
Our road commissioner is al

CENTERVILLE.

The health of this community is
generally good at present.
Sam Deloe, one Of the black
smiths of Tyler county, has moved
to Folsom, and Mrs. Taggert is
moving in the house vacated by
him.
s. B. Wharton and family are
visiting S. P. Lemasters today.
Messrs. Gus Porter, Erve Bea-
gle, Dave Whitefeld and Joe Nc
Ginley, of Sistersville, are board
ing at A. O. Lemasters. They are
drilling the Frrbee G. Smith No.
1. and are about LOO feet deep.
We are expecting this to be a
good well.
There is going to be several new
wells drilled in this vicinity this
summer.
Wash Underwood thinks he is
having troubles of his own. He
says Mary is still writing to Bob.
Geo. Underwood, of Tyler City,
has sold his game chicken. The
price is not known.
G. B. Stathers attended church
at Centerville Sunday.
1t looks as though the County
court is still Republican. There
has been four appointments to
work the turnpike and all of
them Republicans. We know that
some of them opposed Mr.. Swee-
ney's election in every conceiva-
BILE way they could, and it will
not be any surprise if two Repub-
licans and one Democrat conduct
the election as usual. The way
the court has been conducted it
will be useless for the Democrats
to try to elect another one OF the
court this fall.
John Elder, of Big Ruc, was

A disordered stomach may
cause no end of trouble. When
the stomach fails to perform its
functions the bowels become de-
ranged, the liver and kidneys con-
gested, causing numerous dis
eases, the most fatal of which are
painless and therefore the more
to be dreaded. The important
thing is to restore the stomach
and liver to healthy condition,
and for this purpose no better
preparation can be used than

March Field Operations.

March completed more wells
than February and registered a
goodly increase in new production
but in field operations there was
a general decline witnessed ev-
erywhere. Bad roads have had
their effect in retarding the start
ing of new work in the Southwest
and West Virginia districts, while
a declining market has called a
halt on operations in the smaller
territory to the northeast. Wells
completed in the districts produc-
e ing Pennsylvania oil were 81
more than during the previous
month, and there was gain in
new production of 305 barrels.
February, in spite of a protract-
ed cold spell, recorded gains both
in new production and new work
over January, while in wells
completed there was decline of
.43. Field work in both the East
FERN and Western territory has
shown a declining tendency ever
since the advent of our recent
long and severe weather. The
opening of the spring months is
expected to show general in
. crease in all departments OF field
operations. In the Lima oil fields
the increase in new production
amounted to 1872 barrels in
March, of which the Buckeye dis
tricts contributed 200 and the
Hoosier districts 1,463 barrels. In
February these sections revealed
a large decline: the Buckeye field
fell off 1854 and the Hoosier field
1,247 barrels. In January the
Buckley regions showed a de-
crease of al barrels and the Hoo
sier of Col barrels. In December
there was a decline of 1852 barrels
in the former and of 69S in the lat
ter sections, making total OF
1,150 barrels, which was 2SS bar
rels less than the gain that was
recorded in the Pennsylvania oil
districts during the same month
The total Eastern and Lima-In-
diana fields in January was 3.049
barrels and in February 2,1OO bar,
rels, while in March there was a
net gain of 1877 barrels. In the

Started the Fire All Right

John M Compton's store at Hut
louisville, was burned last Sunday
morning. The building was total
ty destroyed, and much of the goods
were burned and the portion saved
was badly damaged In the rough
handling. The loss Is estimated
at from s. 900 TO s. 900, ard Was
not In any way covered by insur =
ance. The origin cf the fire was
the use of lamp oil In starting a fire
In the stove. A bed of hot Goals
lay In the bottom and some one
poured quantity of lamp oil on
them to make 1t burn quickly. An
explosion followed I'm mediately and
the FIRE started through the room.
It spread SO rapidly, and was all In
the interior that there was but little
chance to save anything.

And This Writer
Is a Teacher

Recently superintendent G. W.
Lilly, of the Summers county
schools, had reason to criticize a
teacher holding No. certificate,
for not preserving order In his
school. The teacher took offence
and wrote the following letter:
Dear SRI write you a few
lines, to know what would be your
advice In using corporal punish
ment on a boy or girl that IS IS
years old. Would a school teacher
have the right by law to whip a
scholar at any age, some people
argue with me that o suspend the
scholar for not less than 5 or over
10 days and then let the trustees
dismiss them from school would be
better. Ard that I have not got
any right to whip scholar that Is
IS years old =.
What question book or nut smell
would be the best to get to prepare

would like for you to teach
school next summer at the Jump
Ing Branch, so could review up
before the examination.

Obituary.

Gilbert T. Peck, who died at the
hospital Tuesday evening, from a
stroke of paralysis, became settler
of this county in 1881. He came
from either Wisconsin or Minnesota.
He was married before he came here
but had been separated from his wife.
In the latter 90s he married Mrs.
Fryberger, but this union also proved
to be an unhappy one. He leaves nc
children or other near relatives. He
was 78 years old, and was rather &c
centric, and spent his time gardening
at which he was an expert. The
funeral was held from the NJ. E
church Thursday afternoon.

This bank has always made a
speciality of supplying the needs of
