HeaIdton Crude in Demand.

There is a greater eagerness being
manifested now for Healdton crude
than there has ever been before. An
offer of SLIP IL has been made for
storage oil including the storage. This
is the highest offer that has ever been
made in the field. There have also
been parties here who have offered
ten cents above the posted price as
a standing offer to persons who would
sign up to make deliveries of their
entire production. The field is grad
ually getting better and conditions
now are getting where the producers
are making some real money.

B. B. Jones, the big operator of the
Cushing field, has returned home af-
ter visit to Ardmore. While here
he purchased a nice block of the

the offer large enough to induce the
owners to turn loose.

In speaking of the congressional in
vestigation of the price of gasoline,
Mr. Pew said there is nothing else
that has so much intrinsic value for
the price paid for it, as gasoline. 1t
is selling for two or three cents a
pound and is not higher than other
chemicals. He also observed that the
price of crude has been materially
advanced and also the European war
is largely being fought with gasoline
and the export demand is brisk. The
Germans, he says, have a coal tar
fluid as a substitute for gasoline.
The fluid or motor spirits made from
coal tar has twice the power of gaso-
line.

A Wonderful Gasser.

The Gypsy gas well at Fox In Sec
ton 2S-2-3 has been shut in and the
gas is being conserved The capacity
of the gas sand in that well can
scarcely be estimated. The well was
open for many days while the well
was being drilled below the first sand
and a vast quantity of gas was wasted
and then the pressure was great
enough to burst the braden-head, and
after running wild about five days,
the roar could be heard for miles
Gas was escaping only from the upper
sand and that sand has a thickness
of something like 80 feet.

FIGHT ON LOAN HINTED
BY WEST PHILADELPHIA
Allied Business Men, in Meet
ing, Show Anger Because
Bills Neglect Section

Intimations that the St14.0O0,OOO loan
bills may be opposed at the polls May 16
by the voters Of West Philadelphia were
given last night at meeting of the
Allied Business Mems Association of West
Philadelphia at 72s South sgd street.
The failure to make provision in the loan
bills for improvements in their section
of the city was given as the reason for
the discomfort and the Councilmen from
the West Philadelphia wards were severly
criticised for lnaction when the bill was
before Councils.
A resolution was drawn in which It
was pointedly declared that unless $780,
900 of the StO0O.000 item for street i'm.
provements shall be given to West. Phila.
delpha the loan bills will be opposed at
the polls Before the resolution came
up for action attention was directed to
the fact that the Mayor last week
promised a delegation of business men
that their section would be cared for.
"Of course you know" remarked for
mer Senator John j. Coyle. "the Mayors
promise is good-if he keeps it,"
Tbs assertion of Common Councilman
H. Inward Barnes, of the 46th Ward that
the Mayors word was his bonded obliga-
ton" Vailed to appease the wrath of the
business men. Although the feeling ran
high at the meeting, action on the reso-
luton to oppose the loan was deferred.
John N. McGarvey, chairman of the
Transit Committee. was instructed to in

Art students In the colleges Of the

could study some of the masterpieces Of
art In the American museums and In pri-
vate galleries they would be greatly bene-

lowing the great paintings to remain in
storage they should be taken out occa-
sionally and sent about to the art schools
OF the country in order to help the en-
bryo artists.

The speakers said It was better to have
a small and good art museum than large

ber of photographs of paintings was not
of nearly so much use to the students as
few original canvases. Photographs
give little idea of size. and often cause
a false conception of proportion.

and braced his body against 1t. Bates tried
to force the door, but was unable to do so
until he told the negro he would shoot

the window through which he had entered.
Bates grabbed him around the legs and a
battle began Bates and the negro rolled
over the floor, overturning tables and
chairs. Bates lost his grip on the revolver

ried into the apartment and jabbed the
point of his revolver against the head of
the negro This took all of the fight out
of him and he submitted to arrest.
