TELEGBAlt TO THE D1SP ATOlT.1 "Wizdwood, September 18. "Wildwood presented a busy scene to-day. Many oil men visited tho 'Menke farm surprise, but were disappointed, as the well was in the same condition as reported yesterday. It was expected that drilling would hare been resumed by noon to-day, but it required more time to move out the boiler and make steam connection than was counted on. There is no material change in the produc tion from yesterday, which was 75 barrels a day. Everything is in readiness to-night to drill the well in, but it is most likely that this will not be done until morning. The new strike has stimulated a big batch of new work, and within a period of two weeks a city of derricks will loom up in this quar ter of the field. Kiskadden & Co. have a derrick about finished on the McCaslin farm, located be tween the Bear Creek Refining Oil Com pany's well on the McClay farm and the Menko well. Unknown parties, wbo have be come infected with excitement, are building a rig on the Jones farm, three-quarters of a mile east and in advance of the Menke welk The Bear Creek Refining Company's well, on tne McClay farm, looks much better than it did be- lore the Menke well came in. One of the owners said to The Dispatch reporter to-day: "A w eek ago we would not have given a con tinental for our chances of getting oil, but since the Menke is looking so favorable we feel greatly encouraged." This well is down 1,200 feet. Garrett & Co.'s welk on tbe Han cock farm, is drilling at 1,000 feet. Galley & Co.'s Mo. 1, Blyle, is 65 feet in tbe sand to-night with no improvement. it's a duster. Griffith & Co.'s Grnbb farm well is reported in and dry. It is located about 2 miles in ad vance of development in the west end of the field. Most likely the venture will be drilled deeper in the hope of hitting something better below, Burke & McBrlde, on the Doc Moon farm, are still pegging away, but as yet they have met with little encouragement. The ex act depth the sand has been penetrated has not been publicly proclaimed and to a number of practical operators tbe venture looks dusty. Mr. McBnde. one of the owneis, said to-day m answer to a question of a prominent pipe line official about his well, that it was dry. Tbe Philip Dunn & Co. well, on tbe Smith farm, is rated at 130 barrels a dav. Greenlee iForst's Ice Pond well is holding up well. The well has been drilled through the sand. They are building north of this well on the same tract, and have located two .more wells on the Kecfer farm on a line between the Ice Pond and tbe Menke well. Bowmac & Co , on tbe Whitesell, are in the pay and shut down moving the boiler. It is a big gasser. One of the owners of the gas well informed The Dispatch reporter to-day that the com pany would first put in a new mint of casing in place of the one that is split, give the well a thorongh test, and, if it paid, would utilize the gas, and if not. they would drill the well deeper In hopes of finding a paying oil well. Griffith. Forest & Co. No 2, Smith farm, got the sand to-day at 10.30 o'clock, but will not find tbe pay until about Friday night. They put the small casing in No 1 Smith yesterday. OTHER OPERATIONS. The same company's No. 3. Whltesell. is drilling at 1,890 feet; No. 4 Is down 1,800 feet; No. 5, 1.600 feet; No. 6, 500 feet; No. V, is spud ding and No. 8 has been located and will soon be a rig. Their No. 2, Rolshouse, is on top the sand and No. 3 is down 1,650 feet and No. 4 200 feet. On the Herr farm tbe same company will start the drill in No. 2 to morrow. On tbe Ringbeisen the Forest Oil Company aro down 1.400 feet and the Bndcewater Gas Commm'i Nos. 1 and 2, on the Rolshouse, are drillmgat 500 and 200 feet respectively The Yonng well was drilled deeper to-day without making any particular improvement. The Roth Oil Com pany's No. 2,Kretzer,are in the first pay and by to-morrow mgbt the well sbonld begin. to show up for a producer, Gibson & Giles finished drilling the sand in their Scott farm well to day. It will make a 25-barrel well. The Smith Farm OH Company, on the Smith farm, go: started to drilling to-day at 10 o'clock, but only drilled an hour owing to tbe great force of the gas which flowed tho oil out of the tank as fast as produced. Another tank Is being put np, and by to-morrow the trouble will be reme died and drilling resumed. They also tapped the pay this morning in No. 2 Smith, and shut down to move out the boiler.

Va. He says: "Before 1878 I was In excellent health, weiching over 200 poundi. In that year an ailment developed into acute dyspepsia, and soon I was reduced to 162 pounds, suffering burning sensations in the tomacb, palpitation of the heart, Nausea and Indigestion I could not sleep, lost all heart in my work,had fits of melancholia and for days at a time 1 wonld have welcomed death. I became morose, sullen and irritable, and for eight years life was a burden. 1 tried many physicians and many remedies. One day a workman employed by me suggested that I take Hood's Sarsaparilla, as it had enred bis wife of dyspepsia. I did so, and before taking whole bottle I Felt Like a New Man. The terrible pains to wblch I had been sub jected, ceased, tbe palpitation of the heart sub sided, my stomach -became easier, nausea dls appeared, and my entire system began to tone up. With returning strength came activity of minu ana uouy. .ueiore tne nun uottie was taken I had regained my former weight and conditlou. lam to-day w ell and I ascribe It to aking Hood's .Sarsaparilla."

For the purchaser, and because you may know all about what you are buying; you are left to calm judgment and leisurely comparison, and you buy more cheaply. Of new Furniture the auc tion room catches the "sec onds" and cast-off styles, and most often the auction house Owns the Furniture which it offers to the highest bidder. Under such conditions the buyers chances for saving money are small, indeed. On the other hand we offer in our Furniture Trade Sale brand new goods from the best manufacturers at fixed prices, and they the lowest, to enable us to handle a large quantity of goods in a short time. Bear in mind, every room in the house has been thought of and provided for in this Sale. Perhaps the most in terest centers in pieces and sets for the Parlor, Bedroom, Dining Room and Office. The most wonderful thing in this remarkable combina tion of good values and low prices is the price of $35, which we have made for the six-piece parlor suite in crushed plush. It is the identi cal same suite we sold at $45 last spring. Dealers are con founded at the price, and frankly admit that they don't understand it. Another marvel of value at a low price in our new line of Bedroom Suites, is a hand somely designed 3-piece suite in solid oak, with full-sized double bedstead, large wash stand with splasher back, and large bureau with beveled mirror, 22x28, for $20. But we prefer to let the Furniture tell its own story to those who are interested enough to call and see for themselves. N. B.

It is only a few hun dred years ago that a tailor "to one of the European armies first conceived the idea of cutting average garments instead of meas uring each soldier. His efforts were, of coarse, crude, but this was the birth of the ready-made clothing trade and how it has grownl And imagine how amazed this tailor would be if he were to sep our grand Fall line of MEN'S and YOUTHS' SUITS and OVERCOATS-perfect fitting and ele gant styles the acme of his ideas. We have some surprises for you, too, and there fore request an inspection. - PWMiosm (Mlera, Tailors aM Hatters, 161, 163 Federal St, Allegheny. seM-wrsa BOGGS & BUHL, ALLEGHENY. selS TEETH.
