NEW OIL FIELD.

Considerable excitement mas been
stirred up here since the parties who
recently brought in their first oil well
In the new field on the headwaters OF
Cow Creek, announced the extent OF
their find. The matter was kept on
the quiet after the completion of the
well until those interested in the pros
pect secured leases on an additional
1000 acre tract OF land supposed to
cover the same sand belt which the
test well penetrated The prospectors
estimate that the well will easily pro-
duce thirty barrels per day, and II is
claimed that three or four such wells
will produce sufficient quantity of
oil to insure the relaying OF the stan
dard OIL Co.'s pipe line to connect at
Campton. This line was taken up a
few years ago when the field operated
by the Estill County Oil & Gas Co.
suspended business.
Those interested in the present en-
terprise are r. @. Dulin and number
of gentlemen from Greencastle, Ind.
and g. b. Williams, president Of the
Williams Bank, of this place.
A company will be incorporated and
the field will be developed as RAPIDLY as
possible. Estill Tribune.

NEW MARRIAGE LAW TO
GO INTO EFFECT MONDAY

The new marriage license law pass
ed by the last Kentucky Legislature
went into effect Monday, June 15 ant
makes the securing of a marriage IL
cense decidedly more difficult
Heretofore when the clerk issuing a
marriage license was satisfied as tC
the age OF the contracting parties
nothing further was asked but things
will be different when couple, old
or young, steps up to the counter and
calls for the document that will unite
them.
After the groom gives his age to the
clerk tand by the way the bride to be
present and answer for herself) he will
be required TO give the names of his
parents. place Of birth, occupation, and
whether single or divorced. To make
the matter just little more binding
as well as difficult, the clerk may in
his discretion, require the execution of
bond in the sum of 500 with good
security. Both prospective bridegroom
and bride-to-be must also state the
condition Of their health.
The new law is designed after the
stringent requirements OF the Mich
gan statute. while ii is thus made
difficult and at times embarrassing to
procure license to wed, the laxity of
the divorce laws, especially the Reno,
New, law, which only requires a six
months residence in the state, remain
the same and the grind of the divorce
mill steadily increases.

death OF COUNTY'S
Oldest Citizen
John Griffith Passes Away at Age Of
ITO Years.

John Griffith, who had an authentic
record of being one hundred and ten
years old, died Sunday at his home on
Cherokee creek, this county, where he
had lived so long that the memory of
man runneth not to the contrary. Up
to very short time before his death
Mr.. Griffith was remarkably well and
active for one of so great age. He
could hear and see, and would have
walked about but his family was
afraid ne might fall and be perma-
nently injured. Mr.. Charles Holbrook
who was at the Griffith home a day or
SO before the old man died, said to the
NEWS that the patriarch was cheer
full and talkative, looked we'll and was
plump as d baby. When Mr. Clai-
porne Swetnam was 80 years old he
was heard to say, in general talk
about ages, that "Uncle John" Grit
18th was a year or two older than he
and Mr.. Swetnam has been dead at
least eighteen years. Mr.. Griffith came
from Dickinson county, Virginia. he
leaves many descendants.

RECOGNITION WAIVED
AND STRIKE CALLED OFF

Golfers, w. Va, June 12.-The strike
OF 400 miners of the West Virginia &
Pittsburgh Coal Company here was
declared off late today following the
announcement OF leaders OF the miners
that they would waive the demand for
recognition OF the union. II was un-
officially stated that the company had
granted the eight-hour day, the wage
scale Of the United Mine Workers OF
America, and had given the miners
the protection OF the Insurance De-
partment Of the West Virginia Public
Service Commission. The miners, IL
was said, would abandon the camp
they have maintained near the mine
since last September. and those who
are still here would return to work.
Van Bittner, president OF district No.
3, United Mine Workers, was expected
to issue the formal statement concern
ing the end OF the strike tonight. The
strike was attended by much disord

2.cENT MILEAGE BOOKS
WENT ON SALE MONDAY.

Railroad offices now offer for sale
the new Interchangeable mileage books
good on any steam railroad in the
State with the single exception of the
Illinois Central. The mileage will sell
at cents mile, the books being sold
in 1000 mile lots at $50. The new rate
law of ~ cents mile or mileage at 2
cents a mile went into effect Monday
when the first of them We're sold. Mil
cage will be good on the Chesapeake &
Ohio, Queen & Crescent, Louisville q
Nashville, Louisville, Henderson & st.
Louis, Lexington & Eastern, M. & o.
and Southern. This mileage will not
cover interurban roads though 1t is said
that an effort may be made to do so by
the interurban companies.
These books are what are known as
the " series among railroad people
and are good only when presented by
the person who buys them. None OF
the interstate mileage books recognize
interurban railroads and 1t is thought
that is not likely that a precedent will
be set in Louisville in regard to their
recognition.

PROTEST AGAINST sx.
ABANDONING STATION

Huntington, June 13.-Fearing that
the Chesapeake Il Ohio railroad is
about to abandon the Ceredo railroad
station, Mayor p. G.. Chapman, of that
town, and other property owners have
filed a complaint with the public SER
vice commission. E. f. Winters, of
the commission, is making an investi-
cation of the complaint andaIs ex-
pected to render decision shortly.
Recently the petition of the Ceredo
people points out, Ceredos has been cut
off as flag stop for train No. 8, on
the G. & o. which arrives in Hunting
ton at 2:30 o'clock in the afternoon
The Ceredo officials are of the opin-
ion that this is the first step in the
direction of abandoning the station
there. 1t is stated in the petition to
the public service commission that
train No. has been stopping in Ce-
redo on flag for several years. They
also claim there is considerable traffic
over the road and that Ceredo should
not be Disseminated against.

THE "sHooTING UP" OF
NEON, LETcHER COUNTY

The late murderous shooting up" OF
Neon, KY, briefly mentioned in last
weeks NEWS, is more fully related in
the following:
Whitesburg, KY, June 10.--While
under influence Of liquor at Neon to-
day William Day, 80 years old, said to
be formerly OF Breathitt county, shot
eight persons, including Magistrate
James NJ. Wright, NJ. Davis, hotel
keeper; Victor Stamper, Roy and Jen-
nes Taylor, Howard Wright, Malone

Day used a shotgun.
Day himself was killed later.
Just at sunset one OF the Stamper
boys died as the result OF the wounds
inflicted by Day. Davis, the Taylors,
Wright and Collins are dangerously
wounded and the attending surgeons
fear that they may not survive the
night.

Pursuit was quickly begun by a
posse, lead by Policeman Blaine Collins
Soon after the departure of the officers
a succession OF shots was heard from
the direction which they had taken,
and II was feare, that some of them
had met the same fate as the Neon VIC
tins, but this fear was dispelied by
the early return Of the posse. which
reported that Day had been taken nn-
awares and had been killed in his
tracks. A number Of shots pierced
his body,
For year or more Day had been
