CKUELTY TO AN IMBECILE.
A Father Keeps HI toon Chained Like a
Beast for Sixteen Yours.
rSFZCZAI. TELEOBAM TO TBS DISPATCH.
FbaKKLET, August 20. Dr. H. M. Witherill,
. Secretary of the State Board of Lunacy, accom
panied by H. H, Culp. Superintendent of the
Venango county poor farm, last evening went
out into Canal townshin to investigate a case of
alleged crnelty to a lunatic, the son ot Henry
Young, a well-to-do German farmer. The sight
that greeted them on tbeir-arnval at the Young
homestead is almost beyond -belief. In a small
room on the second floor they found Young's
son, a man of 23 years, chained to the wall. A
staple was driven into the wall, to which was
attached a chain, the other end of which passed,
through a ring attached to a belt that encircled'
the body of the lunatic.
Young admitted to Dr. Witherill that the
young man bad been chained in the room in the
manner described for 18 years. The Imbecile's
body was clothed in what was once a calico
dress, bnt now is nothing more than a dirty rag.
His body was filthy in the extreme and was evi
dently a stranger to water, while his long hair
was matted together, giving him a terrible ap
pearance. The room was dirty and devoid of
furniture, with the exception of an old lounge,
on which the boy was allowed to sleep.
Dr. Witherill went before Judge Taylor and
has had a writ sworn ont lor the imbecile's re
moval to the Warren Insane Asylum, a proceed
ing that almost threw the old man into'a spasm
when he was informed that he would have to
pear the expense of keeping him there.

BELMONT'S OIL BOOM.

In tbe Little Field,
J0BHS0N& CO.'S 500 BAEEEL WELL
Lends New Interest to tbe Fool and In-
creases Confidence.
0PEEATI0N3 IN NEAEBI DISTRICTS
KTECIAt! TSLEPBAX TO TUX DISrATCU.l
Belmont, W. Va., August 20. Belmont
just now is enjoying something of a boom.
There is considerable activity, and those
who are interested in the pool have great
faith in the future of tbe field. On the
Virginia and Ohio sides there are altogether
40 strings of tools running, and perhaps
half this number of rigs up and building.
As yet the connecting link between the
Belmont and Eareka pools has not been
established, and from present indications it
doesn't look as if it ever will be. The
average oil man here is of the opinion that
Belmont and Eareka are distinct pools.
The bulk of the producing wells are
bunched, and a radius of 25 or 30 aores will
embrace them. However, the field, as de
veloped, is a mile long and halt a mile wide,
which includes the operations on the Ohio side
of the river, and includes the Brown farm well,
located one mile northeast from the Ohio side
developments. . , . ,.
A little war has boen Inaugurated in fighting
lines, which is principally along the railroad,
the Poor Farm and tho Island property.
Billy Boyle and Barnsdall and the Emery Oil
Company have locked horns, and a hot race is
being made for the sand. The derricks are so
close together that you can almost step out of
one into tbe other.
TOO IfEAE THE TBACK.
Considerable indignation is exprcsse&agalnst
the Ohio River Railroad Company for leasing
their narrow strip of right of way, which is
dotted with derricks tbe entire length of the
field and located In close proximity to the road
bed. It is claimed that In the event ot striking
a big well or a strong flow of gas, either
would be ignited from a passing loco
motive, thereby jeopardizing tbe lives
of the passengers. One derrick is located
so close to the track that a passenger, a few
days ago, wbo chanced to have his band hang
ing out the window while passing, had it badly
Crushed.
The Johnson & Co. well No. 5, located between
tbe right of way and the Island, which was shot
with 16 quarts Monday, made 832 barrels tbe
first 24 hours and Is still doing 500 barrels a day.
This unexpected revival of an old well has lent
a new Interest to the pool, and will most likely
stimulate tbe nse of glycerine in the future,
whereas in the past its application has been in
a conservative way. There are two wells now
on top tbe sand, the Emery Oil Company on the
right of way and the Taylor farm ten-acre well,
owned by Parkersburg parties. The former
well was not drilled in to-day, on acconnt of
insufficient tankage, but at the latter venture
everything is in readiness to cut the melon.
There is no importance attached to either of
these wells, as they are located in the limits of
denned territory.
A "WILDCAT HTSTEET.
ThoMcCullough well, located one-third of a
mile southwest of the Brown farm well, jnst
now is creating some interest. Tbe well is be
ing mystified, and no one but those interested
know anything about it. Last Sunday the well
was closely guarded until the workmen came
on tour Sunday at midnight. Notices of "No
admittance" are plastered on all sides of tbe
derrick. Another important well now near
tbe sand Is tbe French Creek and Eureka Oil
Company's, of Wheeling, located two miles up
French creek and southeast of Belmont, it
is purely a wildcat, and tho results
are awaited with interest. At present
they are fishing for a string of tools and It will
be some days before the well will be drilled In.
In this venture at between 1,485 feet and 1,160
feet tbe "Big Injun" sand was found in which
there was a good show of oil. It is claimed
that this is the first well with Belmont pool to
find the "Big Injun" rock. Courtney & Co., on
tbe Remolds farm, three-anarlers of a mile
northeast from Belmont developments, com
menced spnaaing yesteraay. jonnson suo.
are drilling two wells, one on tbe Shiugleton
farm and the other on the Lock lot. This com
pany have producing wells making a dally
production of 800 barrels. Castle OH Company,
on tho Brown farm, on the Ohio side or tbe
river, are building No. 2 rig, located S0O feet
west from Brown No. L
New Well at Eareka.
Eureka At Eureka Barnsdall & Co. No.
7, Rees Hammat farm, are drilling in the sand
and showing for a 250 or 300 barrel well; it is
located among a cluster of producers. The
McCullongh well, on the same farm, was shot
Monday, which Increased its production from
50 barrels to 100 barrels a day. H. M cC.
Notes From the Gas Belt.
Bellevebnon Drilling began again this
morning on the Wesco well, tbe broken engine
having been repali ed. Lumber is being hauled
for another derrick on the Beadel farm. A
new derrick nas been erected at the Frye to
replace tbe old one destroyed by lightning.
Drilling will be commenced at once. The bit
is jnst on top of tbe sand, and a good gasser is
confidently looked for.
It's a Dry One.
Evans City In tbe Amberson oil field, But.
ler county, tbe No. 3 on the A. J. Long lease is
is through the sand and is dry. No. 4 is 28 feet
in tbe sand with a good showing for oiL It Is
located on the creek bank.
Sinning a Test Well.
New Wilmington Mr. P. J. Maloney. an
oil expert from the Franklin region, has been
here for several days examining the territory
In this vicinity. The people here have ab
sorbed his ideas, and at a recent meeting held
here, it was decided to pnt down a well at
once. Tbe necessary money has been sub
scribed for tbe venture, and the well has been
located, and the investors are sanguine of suc
cess. A Good Gasser.
Chartiees Rev. J. P. McKee's well at
Cbartlers, northwest of present development,
came In to-day as a great gasser, of at least 600
pounds pressure. This will be a bonanza, as
Chartiers village has been suffering for many
months from a gas shortage. The mills have
been forced to run on sbott time, and even
prlvate'consumers could not get an adequate
supply.
A nfnrrlnavllle Mystery. v
MT7RRINSVILLE Snee & Co., Ha 3, on the
Murrin farm, came in between 2 and 6p.il,
two bits in the sand and the largest well that
has ever been struck in. this vicinity. Produc
tion not known up to this hour. This well lies
about 500 rods .southwest of Snee's No. I Mc
Kinney. PhlppsNo. 4 will tap the sand this
evening.

of a mile east of developments in tbe 100-foot
field, is 40-feet in tbe sand and showing for a w
barrelwell. This indicates a big extension in
the direction of Butler, and is causing a lively
scramble for leases. The sand was pronounced
by an experienced producer to be as good as
any yet found in the field. The only bad omen
Is the absence of salt water. Golden, McUlung
fc Co. this evening paid 10,000for a 23-acre
lease on the Nlblock farm, which is a half mile
east of the Duncan well, and a mile and a quar
ter from developments. The territory in the
immediate vicinity of the well was all taken up
sometime ago. Colbert Co.'sNo.7, on tbe
Brandon farm, is In the sand and showing for a

on tbls farm does not seem to affect tbe pro
duction in the least. '

A Linen Business Here
Tbat knows no parallel the early importa
tion that arrived last week placed bargains
on our Linen Counters tbat keeps them
lined with buyers all da long.
A German Table Linen we offer at 50c a
yard is 64 inches wide and of wonderfully
superior quality.
The 66-inch Linen at 75c nas never had
an equal.
Tbe DijlJar LineD, two yards wide, snperb
quality and choicest designs. 72 laches
wide, 51 a yard three numbers that lead
tbe market.
We can give you a very good Linen Nap

$1 25 and SI 50. These we assert positively
are SUPERIOR to any others at similar
prices ANYWHERE.
Knotted Fringe Towels, with colored bor
ders, at 15c each; another at 25o and one at
35c, or 3 for fl. Bargains, all of them.
JLarge line of Linen Scarfs of every de
scription at away-down prices.
Adjoining the Linen Bargain Counter is
a counter full of Fancy Table Covers of
every kind, size and price the very newest
designs are among them.
A little early to buy Bed Clothing, bnt
here it is, and it'a hard to say when you'll
find as large, varied, fresh and clean assort
ment as on our counters now. White, all
wool, Blankets at 52 50 a pair, if you want
as low a grade, but the "leaders" are
HEAVY WHITE
' ALL-WOOL

$3 50 A PAIR.
We own all there are and possibly all
there ever wtll be of the celebrated Bradley
Blankets no higher in price thongh than
the other brands, and mnch superior now
is your opportunity.

and 85c, shonld be 85o and fl.

Slashing prices is no new thins to us, as competitors well know to
their sorrow. We cut deep, too, when the occasion demands it The
pruning knifa has touched the quick in the Cloak Department Ex
tensive alterations and improvements are soon to be made here, and,
in order to make them, much more room is needed than we have at
command. But all that the ladies want to know is the exact extent of
the reduotion.
