scented, and neither the other guest or
the clerk knew of her identity until a

YORK STATE FOLKS.

YORK STATE FOLKS.
That pretty story of village life,
York State Folks" is the bill for
the auditorium next Tuesday evening,
Nov. 7th. Of the company appearing
in this play, the Tacoma Ledger says;
The play, with Adelbert Knott as
the aged organ builder, and Rhea Ac-
ton as the village belle, is we'll worth
witnessing, as both are of more more
than ordinary ability. Mr.. Knott,
as Myron Cooper, has a part that re-
quires much, yet he was equal to the
task on all occasions. Miss Acton
does her best work when, in the third
act, she resents the implied insult of
the father of the man with whom she
is in love, and it is then that the weak
kneed hero of displays anything that
resembles manhood.
Page Spencer, as the son of Simon
Peter Martin a bullying father, is ac-
ceptadle, but the part itself is rather
weak, and while one looks to see him
as the center of the story, the tale is
in reality woven about Myron Cooper,
the organist, and the love story is but
little more than a side issue.
The story is that of young man
the son of choleric father-who is
in love with the neice of Myron
Cooper, a poor organ builder, who
has spent great part of his life
building a grand organ that he hopes
to sell, and realize enough money to
live comfortably for the remainder o
his days. He is also treasurer of the
village and loans some of the town S
money to Frank Martin, who has lost
heavily at a gaming table. The
young mans father threatens to pros
ecute Mr.. Cooper, but the money is
raised in time to avert exposure.
Little sympathy is had with the
young lover, for he has not enough
strength of character to leave his
father and shift for himself, until the
close of the story, when his father
threats to disinherit him. All ends
happily in the closings Gene, when Mr..
Cooper lies back in his chair and
sees vision of his recently sold or
gam in a great cathedral at Roch-
ester. A pleasing feature of the per-
Torrance is the introduction of the lit
tie children, Jack and Sadie, who
climb on their Uncle Myron's knees
and beg for stories. Master Noble
Morrison and Valentine Logan are the
children.
Il. j. Loring is hardly convincing
at times as the irascibe parent of the
hero and Zoe Farnsworth, as Liddy, his
wife, is most patient appearing wo-
man. Fritz Adams the young music
teacher, and Russell Simpson, as the
horse trader, rival suitors for the
hand of Bessie Hinemann, neigh
boris daughter, are responsible for
considerable merriment. Miss Hine-
man is good looking as we'll as a good
actress. A number of village types
are portrayed and the parts are well
handled by those to whom they are
entrusted. "

Oil and Gas Notes.

The Market-An advance of cents
last Saturday, made the price 81. 33, and
another 3-cent advance, Tuesday, made
it 81. &c.
Summit-The Stephenson farm well
is heavy gasser.
Butler twp.-The Southern's No. on
the Waldron is due this week.
Penn-The Guilford Co.'S No. 3, on
the Nixon was put to pumping, Mon
day night, and did 25 bbls in ten hours
learfeld-Gregg e. Co. have made
another location on the Dennis Mcbride.
Adams Adams & Co.'S No. 1 on the
Staples doing 12 bbls. and drilling has
begun at No 2.
Russia-The production of Russian
oil at one time was the largest in the
world but since the great oil discoveries
in Texas and California, the United
States has one more taken first place in
the petroleum production Of the world.
With the war ended, and the Russian
troops once free to retire from active
service along the Manchurian frontier,
the present outbreak will be speedily
put down, but it will require months,
and perhaps years, before the produc-
tion of Russian oil is brought back TO
its former large proportions. The pop
ulation of the oil districts about Baku
is mixture of Tartars, Russians and
Armenians. The Tartars do most of
the work about the oil fields and re-
fneries, while the Armenians make the
most money. The Tartars are under
Turkish influence and have led the re-
volts against the Russian authorities
and the attacks upon the property of
the rich Armenians and the foreign
companies engaged III the oil business,
which, in spite of reports to the con-
trary, has been highly profitable.

A Surprising Discovery.

While young George Gibson was
hunting ground-hogs at the edge of the
Krumpe woods in Coal Hollow, Buffalo
township, Tuesday afternoon. he found
more than he was looking fo-. In "a
fence corner lay the skeleton of a man,
dressed in a black suit, with black hat
lying nearby. His skull had fallen of,
his shoes were good; there was s162 in
his pockets, and his gold watch chain
had cross upon it, but the watch was
gone.
George reported his find to the
neighborhood, and the County Coroner
was notified, but the inquest, that
night, developed no facts excepting
that during last winter man called at
Jos. Wrights for something to eat, that
might have been this man. There were
no marks of violence upon the clothing
or skull, but there was a chip off his
left shoulder blade. The remains were
taken to Saxonburg, and buried next
day
