Iflow Tuesday afternoon about four
O'clock, the strike having been made
ipst after drilling through the "Bls
IIhiln' sand, at a depth Of eight HIM
lred feet. The well is located on the
Robert Nestor farm, In Cove district,
and the drilling has been in chargeof
FNr. Frank Anderson, one Of the most
capable oil drlllers from Western
! Pennsylvania. Mr.. Anderson had felt
ssnguine all along that he would find
oil at the first attempt, as the signs
we're all favorable at the beginning Of
1.-The work and continued so until the
strike was made yesterday afternoon.
The WELLS now over three-fourths full
Of the fluid, and samples tested
promptly upon the discovery show it
to be Of a very fine grade, and Of like
lknd to the famous Pennsylvania Black
oil that is so eagerly sought after.
while there are no Philippi parties in
the Barbour OH and Gas Company, the
news of the strike and vertfcation Of
the fact Of the find, has created con.
siderable excitement in and about
Phllippi, and 1t is said that a dozen
parties are out today in the neighbor.

Gas Company, however, has leased
many hundred Of acres Of land in the
section in which the new well is 10.

Ing up and paying for the same. 1t
will be recalled that a test well is
being put down in the immediate Sec
tlon Of Moatsville, and the prospects
there, too, nave been very promising,
oil men in abundance have visited the
Barbour county territory, and while
many Of them have felt sanguine that
field there awaited development, y
has only been within the past few
months that courage reached the
sticking point sufficient to attempt the
test wells. Now look out for a big
boom in Barbour county real estate
and the opening and development Of

in The Big LIST
THE VIRGINIA g PlTTs1URe AND
MADEIRA.HlLL CLARK COAL
COMPANIES MAKE BIG
INCREASE.

In Chief Mine Inspector Paul's an
nual report we find in the list Of coal
companies producing over two hundred
thousand tons the names Of two local
companies that were not in this class
until 1906.
The number OF companies in the
State producing over two hundred
thousand tons is 81, and when tits
taken into consideration that there
are several hundred coal companies
in West Virginia, 1t is quite a dis
tlnctfon to be in the big list.
The two local companies referred to
are the Virginia 6 Pittsburg Coal &
Coke Co., and the Madelra.Hill.c Clark
Coal & Coke Co. The formers pro.
duction in 1905 was 1876 tons and
in 1906, 211,O95 tons, an increase of
52;919 tons, while the production Of
the latter in 1906 was 12S,4SS tons and
in 1906 2O2,S45 tons, an increase Of
1857 tons.
The increased production made by
these companies was not occasioned by
any consolidation nor the opening Of
new mine, but was on account Of the
Increased demand for their product.
and also on account Of better facilities
for getting it to market. However,
the increase of both companies would
have been much larger If better car
supply could have been secured.
For 1907 the production of the Wiz.
ginIa & Plttsburg Company will be ma,
terlally increased over 1906, as 1t has
Just finished the installation Of com.
plete electric haulage system. The pro.
duct Of this company is known to the
tmde as the Lincoln Gas Coal" and
there is always a great demand for it,
The -Hll.Clark Company
has also Installed an electric haulage
system in one of Its operations and Il
shipping facilities can be secured this
company's production in 1907 will be
greatly increased over that Of 1906,
In 1905 there we're 81 companies
that had a production Of over two hun.
there we're 81 companies which pro.
lduced over that number Of tons.
The other companies in the Fair
mont region that are in the big list
are the Fairmont Coal Company with
a production of 4tS1,7Os tons, an in.

CITATION, Aug %. with tears of
sorrow and hpmiliation streaming
down her cheeks for the waywards girl
who had brought disgrace and sorrow
upon herin her old age, Mrs, P: ziegi
ler Of New Brighton. Pa appeared
before Mayor SlcC Chung Tuesday even
ing and asked that her daughter, Liz,
zie ziegler, the young girl who was
arrested a few days ago at Fetterman
on charge Of unlawful cohabitation
with a man named Mercer, bereleased
from the county Jail, in order that she
might take the girl back toher home
In Pennsylvania.
The girl and man, who had been Nv
ing as man and wife since last May
were arrested the latter part Of the
week on complaint Of the mans real
wife and were sentenced to pay a fine
Of $50 and costs, and in default both
were sent to the county jail. The girl
sent word to her home Of the plight
she was in and the mother hurried to
her rescue, arriving in the city Tues
day afternoon.
The mother felt very badly over the
way her daughter had been acting, and
after she and the mayor had given the
girl a talking to, the latter promised
that she would go home with her aged
mother and in the future be better
girl. 1t developed that the girl did
not know her paramour was mar.
ried man until his wife arrived here
and that when she did find 1t out that
was the cause of the trouble which
put both of them behind the bars. The
man is still there and the girl has
been taken nome.

Addition Plan Developing.
The commission, according to a
number Of the members, has not yet
discussed the proposal of adding TO
the capitol park, and will not do so
Until others who have interested
themselves in that plan have made
more progress. While there is no
authentic information available on
this point it is said to mean that Sen
ator Stout and others are not yet
prepared to make their proposition
with reference to extension of the
capitol. and at present it is a PROPOSE
ton with which the commission and
the joint capitol commission have
not to do. While many people pro
TESS to view the scheme in the light
of beautiful dream those most in
terested in it and who are in posi-
tons to know just what's doing"
are entirely complacent and declare
the plan win be successfully consum-
mated.
