rSPICIAI. 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. Following are tho

Dyspepsia
to-day,
Boggs & Buhl.
Intense Suffering for 8 Tears.
Few people have snffercd more severely from
dyspepsia than Mr.E.A.McMahon,a well-known
jrrocer of Staunton. 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."

Furniture
Trade Sal el
Why better? And for whom?
Ans. 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. The feature of our
Exposition Carpet display,
near main entrance of Ma
chinery JHfoll, is the miniature
carpet loom to show how Body
rtrussels Carpets are made.
Its working hours are:
From 11 to 12 a. m.

IIEM
The degree of perfection reached in manu
facturing clothing. 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.
