Some Oil Borings.

L. Il. Flemng's latest well on the
headwaters of Jameson run was finished
last week, but failed to show up as a
paying producer of either gas or oil and
was plugged after being shot.
Lowe Il Welch's second well out in the
Smokey Hill territory is expected to
strike the pay streak by the last of the
week. Their first well, on the Robert
Mealy farm, is fair gssser and is shut in.
Lowe Il Co.'s latest venture on the
Baird tract, Dawson run territory, was
shot last week, and reported as one of
their best. 1t is believed that 1t will set
tie down to a 10. 0.barreler, or better.
Pequignot d Ginger finished their
fourth we'll last week on the King lands,
which join the G. o. Baird tract to the
north. 1t is dry in location less than
four hundred feet from No. well, which
is fair producer.
Richards & Co. have the rig about COM
pleted for their second venture for deep
sand production. 1t is located on Little
Tionesta creek, about quarter of a mile
from the mouth of the stream. They will
go as far as the Speechley sand, at least.

We suggest that the cave spouts, val

of the old one. Also that the knives and
forks and dishes at the County Home are
not sufficient for their needs, and we sug-
gest that they should be furnished with a
sufficient amount to meet their require

On account of a big woods fire on the
hill between here and Fsgundus last
week Thursday, a glycerine magazine
located on the hill short distance from
the Fagundus road and in the path of the
fire, blew up with terrific explosion.
We did not learn how much glycerine let
go, but it was large enough to make a
hole in the ground about three feet deep
and twenty feet in circumference. besides
uprooting and stripping big trees and
breaking glass in near by house. No
