MUCH MONEY SPENT.
Independent Companies spent $780,
900 In Development.

Independent Companies spent 81 5o,-
900 In Development.
A careful estimate placed on the
amount of money expended In devel.
opment work and otherwise by the
independent oil companies In the Flor.
encc oil ;erritory in 1904 10 $3.50. 900. II
the amount spent by the Florence and
United companies was known the
figures would probably rel ch 5000, 600
or even $225. 900.
This may seem small. but when it
Is taken into consideration that the
expenditures will probably reach these
figures annually in future. it will
only require the elspse OF few years
until q million dollars are put into
further developing the territory. One
OF the formost independent operators
said yesterday afternoon that within
the next three months there would be
more money spent in oil development
work here than ever before.
Not giving the reporter any in
formation - to what authority he
had for making the assertion. nothing
definite can be published at this time.
With the Independent companies
things are hummiug and operations
will be pushed with remarkable reg.
ularity for several months to come.

Had Seen Better DduS.

Here comes an old man of the
have-seen-better-days type. He is
bruised and battered, and generally
much the worse for wear. He is
fearful over his woes, and weak. he
says, from lack of food. If there were
any way Of putting his breath into
solid form, however, it would be
plenty strong enough to support
MS tottering footsteps. He be-
longs in Hyattsville; he came down
10 washington Saturday Just for
day of-apd, well. he doesn't quite
remember the rest. He looks rather
as II he had been trying 10 wipe up
the street with himself. He tells
the agent that he vans 90 home:
go home TO Hyattsville; vans decen'
pair O pans 50 she en- 20 home
known in Eye-attshville. can 20
'o-me less s got some decen' pans"
The agent mildly suggests that if
they knew him in Hyattsvule. per
haps they'll help him there. But that
won't do can go ONE 'thout some
decen' pans" SO the little lady
says. All right come up stairs. and
III see if can fit you with a pair"
One wonders how she's going 10 do
it, but they come down from the
store room with a pair Of pants-like
the old man of the have-seen-b better
days type, but still, decent. And
after he has gone TO the municipal
lodging house to earn them (by
splitting a certain amount of wood
she explains that the men fit them
selves to trousers by taking the
bottom Of one leg in each hand and
their arms wide open. If
the trousers just reach they ought
to be just the right size. Presently
the old fellow will come back with
the municipal lodging houses certifi-
cate that he has done the stipulated
amount of work, and get his decent
pair of pants, and, fl is to be hoped,
go 'ome I Eye-attshville."
Next there are a couple of little
The Washington times., 1905-12-10
No Place to Go.

First there is Mrs. Topman. who
is about to be dispossessed. She Will
be turned out this afternoon. and
she hasn't a place on earth TO go.
She has four little children and her
husband has deserted her. The baby
IS not quite four months oId-it
was helped into the world by the
visiting nurse from her own office.
Mrs Topham is a self-respecting
niue woman; she never would have
applied to ''the charities" herself.
some of her friends did il for her
being AT their wits ends what to- do
for her. She has until o'clock
this afternoon to move. The only
rooms they have been able to find
cost 81 month and "a is an awful
lot, when one hasn't got it. Besides
il Will cost $125 TO get a man TO
move the few little sticks of furni-
ture. And besides" again. the other
rooms must be rented of the same
agent as the ones she is now in. and
II is doubtful whether he will rent
to a woman whom he has had to
evict from one place, even though a
friend, with a heart a lot bigger
The Washington times., 1905-12-10

than her income, is ready TO sign
the paper and be responsible. They
have been trying to get the agent to
rent under the impression that he
was renting TO the other woman. but
for some reason he is wary-and
