KEY.DE. TALMAGI.'a fcO.ND.U DISCODESE
TMXCIAI. TEX.CGKAU TO TOI DISPATCn.:
Ukooklyx, Feb. 15. Great audiences
a:rain assembled at the service by Dr. Tal
majje in the Brooklyn Academy of Music
this moruiuj: and also at service in the Is ew
York Academy of Music in the evening.
The remarkable interest in the latter con
tinues without evidence of abatement At
the services in New York last Sunday even
ing there were many emotional episodes
among the vast audience and to-nij;bt these
were repeated, hundreds pledging them
selves anew to Christian lives henceforth.
Dr. Talmage took for his text at the Brook
lyn Academy: "Faith without works is
Jd." .Tames ii:20.
The Ilonian Catholic Church lias been charted
Willi nuttinc too much stress upon jrooil works
and not cuouch upon faith. I charge l'rwtcst
antitm with puttlnc not enough stress upon
pooa works as connected with salvation. Good
works ill neer save a man, but if a man have
not good works he lias no real faitn and no
genuine religion. There aie those who depend
upon the fact that they are all risht inside,
while their conduct :s wionj; outside. Their
religion, for the mot itart. is made up of talk
vigorous tail;, fluent talk, boastlul talk, per
petual talk. They will entertain ou bv the
hour in telling jou how gooa they are. They
come up to such a Ligher life that they have no
raliencc with ordinary Christians in the plain
Ii'charsc of their duty. As near as lean tell
this ocean craft is rnostlv sail and ery little
tonnage, roretermiast srijraii, lorcinnniaat
studding sail, inamiopsail. luizzentop-ail
everything from fijiug jib to rnizzeu spanker,
lint making no uciul voyage. Now, the world
lia got tired of thi. and it u auta a religion that
wall work into all the circumstances or lite.
"VVedo not want a new religion, but the old re
ligion applied in all possible ducctions.
Yonder i a river with steep and rocky banks,
and st roais like a young Niagara as it rolls on
merits rough bed. It does nothing but talk
about itself all the way from its source in the
mountain to the plare where it empties into the
sea. The banns are so stiep the eattle cannot
come tlow n to di ink. It iluei nut run one fertil
izing rill into the adjoining field. It has not one
grist mill or factory on cither side. It sulk? in
wet wiher with chilling fog. No one cares
when that river is born among the rocks,acd no
ouecues when it uies into the sea. Cut yonder
Isanother rucr, audit mossesits banks with the
warm tides, and it rocks with floral lullaby the
water lilies asleep on its bosom. It invites herds
if cattle and hocks of -beep and coveys of birds
to come there and drink. It has three grist
mills on one side aud six cotton factories on the
other. It lathe wealth of 200 miles of luxuriant
tanns. The budsof beaten chanted when it
Was born in the mountains, and the ocean ship
ping will press in from the sea to hail it as it
comes down to the Atlantic coast. The one
river is a man who lives for himself. The other
river is a man who lives for others.
Choosing; the Site of 7ei-usal m.
Do j on know how the site of the ancient city
of Jerusalem was choseu? There were two
brothers who had ad joining farms. The one
brother had a large family, the other had no
family. The brother with a large family said:
"There i my brother with no family; be must
he lonelj, audi will try to cheer him up, and 1
will take some of the sheaves fiom my field in
the night time and set them over on his farm
arid say nothing about it." The other brother
said: "My brother has a largo family, and it is
Very difficult for him to support theimand I will
iclp him along, and I will take some of the
tlicaves from my farm in the night time aud set
tlicui over on his farm, and saj nothing about
it." fco the wei k of transference went on night
alter night, and night after night: but every
morning things seemed to be just as they were,
lor though sheaves had been subtracted from
each farm, shea es had also been added, and
the brothers were perplexed and could not
understand. Rut one night the brothers hap
pened to meet while malting this generous
transference, and the spot w here tliej met was
bo sacred that it was chosen as the site of the
ityof Jerusalem. If that tradition should
prove unfounded, it will nevertheless stand as
a beautiful allcgorj setting forth the idea that
wheiever a kiuitlv and generous and loving act
is performed, that is the spot tit for some temple
of commemoration.
1 have otten spoken to j-ou about faith, but
now 1 peaU to ou about works, for ''faith
without works is dead." 1 think you wi'l agree
with me in the statement that the great want
of this world is more practical religion. We
want practical religion to go into all merchan
dise. It will supervise the labelling of goods.
It will not allow a man to sav that a thing was
made m one factory when it was made in
another. It will not allow the merchant to sav
that watch was manufactured in Geneva,
Switzerland, when it was manufactured in
Massjchnsctts. It will not allow the merchant
to say that wine came from Madeira when it
came from California. Practical religion will
walk along by the store shelves and tear off all
the tags that make misicpresentation. It will
not allow the merchant to say that is pure
curler, when dandelion root and chiccory and
other ingredients go into it. It will not allow
linn to say that is pure sugar, when there are
In it sand and ground glas.
"Workings or Practical Iteligion.
When practical religion gets its full swing in
the world, it will go down the streets, and it
will come to that shocstorc and rip off the ficti
tious soles of many a tine looking pair of shoes,
and show that it is pasteboard sandwiched be
tween the sound leather. And this practical
religion will go nhtintoa grocery store, and
it will pull out the plug of all the adulterated
syrups, audit will dump into the ash barrel, in
front of tho store, the cassia baik thatis-nhl
for cinnamon and the binkdutt that is sold lor
cayenne pepper: ana it will shake out the
Prussian blues from the tea leaves, and it will
silt from the flour plaster ot pans and bone
dust and soapstone, and it will by chemical
analysis separate the one quart of Kidgcwood
water from the few honest drops of cow's milk,
and it will throw out the live animalcules from
the brown sugar.
There has been so much adulteration of arti
cles of food that it is an amazement to me that
Uiera isa healih) man or woman in America.
Ueaen only knows what they put into the
Epices and into the sugars and into tho butter
and into the apothecaiy drug, liutcbemic.il
analysis and the microscope have made won
derlul revelations. Tne Hoard or Health in
Massachusetts ana I zed a gi cat amount of what
was called pure collcc. and found in Knot one
particle oi collee. In England there is a law
that forbids the putting oi alum in bread. The
authorities examined 51 packages of bread aud
found them all guilty.
The honest physician, writing a prescription,
docs not know hut that it may bring death iu
fctead of health to his patient, because there
may be one of the drugs weakened b a cheaper
ar.icle. and another drug may be in lull
force, and so the prescription may
!iao just the opposite effect in
tended. Oil of wnrmwoou warranted pure
trnm Hoston was found to bae 41 per cent of
resin and alcohol and chloroform, beammony
asoneof the most valuable medicil drugs. It
is very tare, ery precious. It is tho sap or the
Kum of a tree or a bush in Syria. The root of
Jic tree is exposed, an incision is made into the
root and then shells are placed at this incision
to catch the sap or the gum as it exudes. It is
very precious, this scaminony. Hut the peasant
mixes it with cheaper material; then it is
taken to Aleppo, aud the merchant theie mixes
it with a cheaper material: men it comes ou to
the wholesale druggist in 1-omlou or New York,
ami lie mixes it with a cheaper material:
Mien it comes to the retail druggist, and he
niixc it with a cheaper material, aud bv the
time the poor sick man gct- it into his bottle,
it is ashes and chalk and saud, and some of
oliat has been called pure scaminony after
analisis has been lound to be no scammony at
ail.
Coining of (ho Millennium,
Yes, this practical religion will also go into
agricultuie, which is proverbially honest, but
needs to be rectified, and it will keep the
farmer frum tending to the Xew York market
veal that is too young to kill, and when tho
farmer farms ou shares, it will keep the man
who does the work from making his hair three
fourths, and it will ketp the farmer from
building his post aud rail fence ou his ucigh-
bor'MllelUlSes. aud It will ni.il.-n liiin Mmlmr ln
cattle in tho wmici storm, aud it will keep the
old elder lrom working on Sunday afternoon
in the new ground where nobody sees him.
And this practical religion will hover over the
house, aud oicrtbe bin, and orcr the field,
and over the orchaid.
Yes, this piactical religion of which I speak
willrame into the learned professions. The
linycr will leel his rcsiionsllnlit in defending
iiiuosence and arraigning etu, and expounding
the law, and it will keep mm from charging for
briefs be never wrote, and for pleas he never
made, and lor percentages he never earned.and
from robbing widow and orphan because they
arc defenctles-. Yes. this practical religion
will come into tho physician's lire, ana he will
feel hi- responsibility as the conservator of tho
public health, a profession honored by the
aact that Christ himseir was a physician
And it will make him honest ana
when he does not understand a case
he will say sn, not trying to cover
up lack of diagnosis with ponderous technicali
ties, or send the patient to a reckless drug store
because the apothecary happens to pay a per
centage on the prescriptions sent. And this
practical religion will come to tho school
teacher, making her feel her responsibility in
preparing our vouth for usefulness and for
happiness and tor honor, and will keep her
lrom giving a sly box to a dull heaa, chastising
him for what be cannot help, and sending dis
couragement all through tho after years ot a
lilctime. This practical religion will also come
to the newspaper men. and it will help them in
the gathering of the news, anil itwill help them
in setting forth the best interests of society,
and it will keep them from putting the sins of
the world m larger type than its virtues, and
its mistakes than its achievements.
Yes, this icligiou, this practical religion will
come and put its hand oiiwhat is called good
society, elevated society, successful society, so
that people will have their expenditures within
their income, and they w ill exchange the hypo
critical "not at home" for the honest explana
tion "too tired," or "too busy to see you, and
will keep inn irent reception from becoming in
toxicated conviviality.
Yea, there bra great opportunity for mission
ary work in what are called the successful
classes of society. It it no rare thing now to
see a fashionable woman intoxicated in the
street, or the rail-car, or the restaurant. The
number of Cue ladies who drink too much is
increasing. Perhaps you may find her at the
reception in most exalted compauy.but she has
made too many visits to the wine-room, and
now her eye is glassv, and after awhile her
check js unnaturally" flushed, and then she
falls into fits of excruciating laughter about
nothing, and then she offers sickening flatter
ies, telling some homely man bow well be looks,
and then she is helped into the carriage, aud by
the time the carriage gets to her home it takes
the husband and coachman to get her up the
stairs. The report is. she was taken suddenly ill
at a german. Ah! no. .She took too much
champagne, and mixed liquors, and cot drunk.
That was all.
tVIiero Reform Is Needed.
Yea, this practical religion will. have to come
in and fix up the marriage relation in America.
There are members ot churches who have too
many wives and too many husbands. Society
needs to be expurgated and washed ana fumi
gated and Christianized. Wo have missionary
societies to reform Mulberry street, in New
York, and Bedford street, in Philadelphia, and
hhorcditch. London, and tho Brooklyn docks;
but there is need of an organization to reform
much that is going on jn Beacon street, and
Kittenhouse square, ana West End. and lirook
lyn Heights, aud Brooklyn Hill. We want
this practical religion not only to take hold of
wuat are caneu me loner classes, but to take
hold of what are called the higher classes. The
trouble is that people have an idea tnev can do
all their religion on Sunday with hymn book
and prayer book and liturgy, and some of them
sit in church rolling up their eyes as though
they were ready for translation, when their
Sabbath is boundea on all sides by an inconsist
ent life, and while you are expecting to cotno
out rroin under their arms the wings or an
augcl. there come out from their forehead the
horns of a beast.
"ow you say, "That is a very beautiful
theory, but is it possible to take one's religion
into all the avocations aud business of lire?"
Yes, and I will give you some specimens. Medi
cal doctors who took their religion Into every
day life: Dr. Johu Abercromhe, of Aberdeen,
the greatest Scottish physician of his dav. bis
hook on "Diseases of the Brain and Spinal
Cord," no more wonderfnl than his book on
'The Philo-oohy of the Moral Feelings." and
ortcn kneeling at the bedside of his patients to
commend them to God in prayer. l)r. John
Brown, of Edinburgh, immortal as an author,
dying under the beuediction or the
sick or Edinburgh. invself remem
bering him as he sat in his study in Edinburgh
talking to me about Christ, and his hope of
heaven. Ana a score or Christian family phy
sicians in Brooklyn just as good as they were.
Lawyers who carried theirreliglon into their
profession: The late Lord Cairns, the Queen's
adviser for many years, the highest legal au
thority in Great Britain Lord Cairns, every
summer in his vacation, preached as an evange
list among the poor of his country. John Mc
Lean, Judge or the Supremo Court or the
United States and President or the American
Sunday School Union, feeling more satisfaction
in the latter office than in tho former. And
scores of Christian lawyers as eminent in the
Church of God as they are eminent at the bar.
A Eulogy of Arthur Tappan.
Merchants who took their religion into every
day lire: Arthur Tappan, derided in his day be
cause he established that system by which we
come to find out the commercial standing of
business men, starting that entire system, de
rided for it then, himself, as 1 knew him well,
in moral character A 1. .Monday mornings in
viting to a room in the top ot his storehouse the
clerks of his establishment, asking them about
their worldly interests and their spiritual inter
ests, then giving nut a hymn, leading in prayer,
giving thein a lew words of good advice, asking
them what church tney attended on tbc Sab
bath, what the text was, whether they had any
especial troubles of their own. .Arthur Tappan,
I never heard his eulogy pronounced. I pro
nounce it now. And other merchants jnst as
cood. William E. Dodge in the Iron business,
Moses II. Grinnell in the shipping business,
Peter Cooper in the glue bnslness. Scores of
men just as good as they were.
Farmers who tako their religion into their oc
cupation: Why. this minute their horses and
waons stand around all tho meeting houses in
America. They began this day by a prayer to
Goa, and when thev get home at noon,' after
thev have put their horses up. w ' offer a
prayer to God at the table, seeking a dessing,
and this summer there will be in their helds not
one dishonest hoad of rye, not one dishonest ear
of corn, not one dishonest apple. AVcrship'ng
God to-day away up amongtheBerkshlie Hills,
or away down amid the lagoons of Florida, or
away out amid the mines if Colorado, or along
the banks of the Passaic and the Raritau.
where I knew them better because 1 went to
school with them.
.Mechanics who took their religion into their
occupations: Jamos Brmdley, the famous mill
wright; Nathaniel Bon-ditch, the famous ship
chandler; Elihu Burntt, the famous black
smith, and hundreds and thousands of strong
arms which have made the hammer and the
saw and the adz and tho drill and the ax sound
in the grand march ot our national industries.
Give your heart to God and then fill your life
with good works. Consecrate to him your
store, your shop, your banking house, vour fac
tory and your home. Thev sav no one will
know it. God will hear it. That is enough.
Y'ou haully know of anyone else than Welling
ton as connected with the victory at Waterloo;
but he did cot do the hard fighting. The hard
righting was done by the Somerset Cavalry and
tho Kyland regiments, and Kcmpt's Inrantry.
and the Scots Grays and lho Life Guards.
W ho cares, if only the day was won.
A Story With a Moral.
In the latter part of the last century a girl in
knpland became a kitchen maid in a farm
house. She baa many stjlesof work and much
hard work. Time rolled on. and she married
the son ot a weaver of Halifax. They were in
dustrious: thev saved money enough after
awhile to build them a home. On the morning
of the day when they were to enter that home,
the young wife arose at 1 o'clock, entered the
front dooryard. knelt down, consecrated the
place to God, and there made this solemn vow;
"O, Lord. ir thou wilt bless me in this place the
poor shall have a share ot it." Time rolled on
and a fortune rolled on. Children grew up
around them, and they all becamo affluent, one
a member of Parliament, iu a public place de
clared that his success came from that prayer
of his mother In the dooryard. All of them
were affluent. Four thousand hands in their
factories. They built dwelling houses for la
borers at cheap rents and when they were in
valid and could not pay they had the houses
for nothing.
One ot these sons came to this country, ad
mired our parks, went back, bought land,
opened a great public park, and made it a
present to the cityor Halifax, England. They
endowed an ornhanage, they endowed two alms
houses. All England has heard of the gen
erosity and good works of the Crossleys. Moral:
Consecrate to God your small means and your
humble surroundings, ana you will have larger
means and grander surroundings. "Godliness
is profitable unto all things, having promise of
the life that now is and of that which is to
come." "Have faith in God by all means, but
lemember that faith without works is dead."

funds for all purposes. While nearly all tho

A STROXGEFw TONE TO LIGHT HIDES
OrricE of Pittsburg Dispatch,
Satueday, Feb. It 5
Country Produce.
The features of the produce trade for tbe
week have been the steady downward move
ment of ei;gs and the upward tendency of
dairy products. The drop iu eggs since tUe
beginning of the week has been equivalent
to 5c per dozen, and markets close weak at
the decline. Creamery butter advanced 2c
'f3 lb during the week, and cheese has also
shown an upward tendency. Supplies at
cheese factories are very light, and all signs
point to an advance in the next few days.
At the beginning of the week potatoes were
dull and slow, owing to liberal receipts
and prices weakened, until 81 10 was tho top
from stores. Later on markets rallied, and
within tbe past day or two there has been
greater activity, and all choice stock finds
ready market at SI 15 per bushel. The first
halt of February has not been large in results
to jobbers of produce, groceries or cereals. Tbe
movement has been slowall along the line. The
strike in the coke regions, and the fear or a
shutdon n ot our iron Industrie, ha very much
curtailed volume or trade. An adjustment of
these troubles, which is devoutly to be desired,
would, without doubt, be a great impetus to
trade.
Why Men Fail.
An attempt which is somewhat novel, and as
a matter of course, rails or perfection, has re
cently been made by Jlradstrect's to tabulate
tbe causes of failure in business. The princi
pal cause, as given, is lack, of capital, and 40
per cent of the failures are charged up to this
cause. Next on the list is incompetence, and
'JO per cent nf tho failures are attributed to
this cause. Personal errors, with 18 per cent,
comes next on the list, lleckless credit stands
for 1 per cent: extravagance. 2 per cent; neglect
of business, 4 per cent; undue competition. 2
percent, and it is a pleasant feature, or the
article that only 1 per cent ot the entire amount
ot failures of the United States for the year
lSiK) were due to fraud. The total number of
failures in the country for the year was 10,673,
and 00 per cent ot these were of firms having
$5,000 capital and under.
Skinning Animals.
The Northwestern Hide and Fur Company, of
Minneapolis, in a recent circular, with valuable
cuts, have furnished some Important sugges
tions to killers ot live stock. Carelessness or
Ignorance, or both combined, in the matter of
taking the hide from the bullock entails heavy
losses, because it is of the greatest importance
to the tanner that the hide should reach him in
good shape. Here are some of the suggestions
given in the circular, suggustions which are
demonstrated by cuts showing the process:
In skinning, the knife should run down to the
arm-pit, then forward to the point of the
brisket (not to the center, as many do). Do not
cut the throat cross-wise; stick it the same as
you would a hog. Split the hide on the bead
exactly in tbe center, take out the horns and
tail bone (the tail goes with the hide, but not
the bone).
No one should attempt to skin a beef without
a curved skinning knife. As one bolo will pay
for several knives, it is folly to try to do with
out a good knife. In skinning keep the knite
close to the hide and draw tightly with left
hand on tbe bide. By so doing you will not be
liable to cut and scar them.
For hides weighinc from 50 to 60 pounds, put
an even water bucket of No. 1 coarse salt,
larger aud smaller in proportion, rub it on even,
leave it spread ont until tho salt has stuck in,
then lay it on a pile, head on head and tail on
tall, or roll them up' in bundles. Hides treated
thus, if not damaged by cuts, will bring highest
prices. To get best prices for hides never dry
them.
The Hide Market.
Tbe situation stands as reported a week ago.
There is a general feeling, however, that light
bides have touched bottom. In the early
vi inter farmers were pusbiug light stock on tbe
market in view of high-priced feed. For this
reason prices dropped below general expecta
tions. At present farmers aro withholding
light stock, as the grazing season draws
near. A scarcity of light bides Is anticipated
by dealers, and as a result markets arestronger.
Steer bides remain as quoted a week airo. Fol
lowing are prices jiald by tanners and hide

MINNEAPOLIS Holders of wheat wanted
higher prices this morning, and they first held
for 91c, but failing to get that they took 93c
for the run of straight country No. 1 Northern.
A few choice lots held above and a few thin
lots sold below. Then a break came in the gen
eral markets for spot and futures, and 93c was
about the basis for No. 1 Northern, all other
qualities being based, in prices, on No. 1 North
ern. Local millers and shipping millers took
the good grain. Poor lots were hard to sell

Country Produce Jobbing Prices.
The egg market keeps drifting downward
and there is little doubt that jobbing prices
will bo a shade below 20c on Monday morning.
Under tho influence of mild weather hens are ev
idently getting in their work earlier this season
than is their custom. All choice dairy products
continue firm. Fancy creamery butter is
steady at the recent advance, and high grade
cheese is firm enough to go up higher at an
early day. Potatoes are active and firm and
outside quotations prevail for choice stock.
There has been a decided improvement in de
mand for potatoes within a few days, and sup
plies are very much reduced. The first new
maple sugar of the season put in an appear
ance at the commission houses within a day or
two, and is quoted at 9 to lie per lb.

NEW YORK STOCKS.
Shares Even Duller Than Before Changes
Are for Fractionally Higher Figures
Exports and Imports of Gold,
and Silver.
New York, Feb. 14. The return of Mr.
Gould to this city this morning in, as far as can
be learned, bis normal condition ot health has
stopped all influence of the rumors of his
serious indisposition, and this, together
with the tendency among all classes
of operators to await the adjourn
ment of Congress before taking any
action in a speculative way, intensified the pre
vailing dullness m the stock market to-day,
and the trading was the smallest for any day
for a long time. The bank statement was not
so bad as expected, and while it showed a fall
ing off of nearly $1,800,000 in the surplus reserve,
this result was accomplished entirely by an ex
pansion of about $1000,000 in the loans while
money continued to flow into the banks, as
proved by the increase in deposits. Thetraden
who expected to make a demonstration against
the market were therefore headed off, and
nothing was done beyond the usual ordinary
transactions. j
There were a few movements of importance,
however, among which an advance of 2 per
cent in Susquehanna and Western preferred,
and 2 per cent in Oregon Improvement were
most prominent, though tbe former lost 1 per
cent in the final dealings. The Industrials
were also moved atout more than the regular
list, and the new Sucar stock, after a fractional
decline moved up over 1 per cent, bnt closed
slightly loner than last evening. Among the
general list, the strongest stocks were Western
Union, Wheeling and Lake Erie preferred,
Missouri Pacific and Louisville and Nashville.
The opening was steady, but the early deal
ings developed some strength, and the close
was cenerally at fractious better than last
night's figures.

OIL IN BUTLER COUNTY.
A MASKED DECLINE' IK PRODUCTION
ALL OVEE THAT FIELD.
But Little New "Work, and That ot Very
Small Consequence The Callery Dis
trict About the 3Iost Important of Any
In'the County.
IRPECIlt. TELEORAM TO Tmt DtSrATCH.t
Butler, 1'eb. 15. Butler county, like
other sections of the oil domain, in tbe ag
gregate is declining both in production and
new work. The Jefferson Center Annex,
however, is the only point that shows an in-
' crease, but upon the whole there is a con
spicuous absence of interest and activity.
Tbe total production of tbe Butler field is
approximately 350,000 barrels a month,
which is a marked decline as compared with
30 days ago. The Hundred-foot district is
going down, and within the past month has
fallen off 20,000 barrels.
This decline is mostly In the Little Creek
district, where in August and September
the prodnction was 170,000 barrels, is now
only 70,000 barrels per montb. Some of the
big wells struck here four months ago,
which started off at 125 barrels an hour, are
now only pumping 100 barrels a day, while
the same ratio of decline is noticeable at the
other wells. In this section bnt very little
new work is being done, and the new wells that
will be completed tor the next month will not
hold the production at the present figure. Tbe
production in tbe llic Creek district Is not
oyer 4,000 barrels per month. There Is more
activity hero than on Little Creek and
the falling off of the old wells is about
kept up by tbe prodnction of new ones. The
poor record of the Harinouy field has not in
spired tbe average producer with much confi
dence in the territory of this locality, and as a
consequence but very little is doing here. In
this pool 16 wells have been completed,
half of this number being dry, while the other
eight only havo a production of 2)0 barrels a
day. There are but two wells drilling and no
new work under way and the general verdict of
tbe producing fraternity is that Harmony will
never amount to much.
AtZelienople tbereis just one well drilling.
Tbis is owned by Latihaw & Co. and located on
the Wilson farm. Three-quarters of a mile
southwest of Zelienople Captain Marsh has a
rig on the Mullcr farm, where he is looking for
an extension ot the field. Tbe prodnction of
seven wells in this Held Is 250 barreN a day. On
tbe Faukefarm parties are building a rig
three-quarters of a mile northeast of Zelieno
ple. and will drill a well as soon as possible.
This Is considered an important venture, and
festive wildcatters are not only hopeful.but aro
stronc in their faith that tbey will hit a new
lead in this direction. The production of Har
mony and Zelifinonle is 1.500 barrels a month.
JTfae Callery district Just now Is tbs mostlm-
portant in point of activity and interest of any
of the Hundred Foot pool". The production is
abont 900 barrels a day, the bulk of which is
produced from the town lots at Callery Junc
tion. Here there are six wells pro luclng. the
largest of which is the Goelirlnganxl Mc-Sulty
well, on the Deemer lot, doing 100 barrels a
day. The Hoot aud Borer well is in and pump
ing. It will make from 40 to 60 barrels. Bar
ney Forst & Co. are in tbe sand with their No.
1. on tho Marberger, which is showing
for a 40-barrel well. Their No. 1, on tho
Staples, two weeks old. is making 100 barrels a
day. GoehringiCo.. No. L Richardson lot.
which was denominated as a gusher a short
time ago. has but a production of 50 barrels a
day. Burton & Co.'s No. 1. located on the lot
joining tho Richardson on the east, is pumping
only 50 parrels a day. AH the producing welli
at the J unction ard located inside of a circle of
two acres. Campbell i Murphy, ou the Kanf
mann farm, are in tbe saud. and at present the
venture is showing light. Tbis well is located
100 rods northeast of tbe above wells, and was
looked upon as important, as it might bo a pos
sible outlet of the pool.
Since tno Miller & Co. well on the Croft farm
and the farthest well east from Waters station
is showing for a 40-barrel well more than ordi
nary interest Is shown In tbis locality. It is
also half a mile east from the old Martin farm
developments, ai.e from every indication it is
but fair to presume that the day M not far dis
tant when there will be considerable activity
here and some coort Hundred Foot wells found.
Four miles east from Mars, unknown parties
have just got their wildcat well on the J. L.
Park to pumping, which will Drobably make
from five to ten barrels a day from the centen
nial sand. It is said that these same parties
have leased a large scope of territory in this
vicinity, and are starting another rnr. on the
Bowers farm, one mile and a half east from
their producer on the Park farm; also another
on tbe Hays farm, at HaysvIIIe. one mile west
from the Park farm. Wesley Weber & Co., on
the Grant Cruiksbank farm, are nearinc the
third sand. This well was a duster in the 100
foot. Tho Jefferson Center annex is beginning to
attract the attention of tho trade and, this lo
cality in the inture will bear watching. Mr.
Phillips has a large scope of territory leased up
which extends from Thorn Creek through to
Great Belt. The veteran producer has groat
confidence In this territory and is sanguine that
he will yet open upa pool which wilt rival Thorn
Creek. At present there i a production of 775
barrels a day. Hartman & Son on the Byrerly
heirs' farm have seven well making 500 barrels
and T. W. Phillips on the Fisher has two doing
275 barrels a day. One of these is the gusher
that came in four weeks ago at a 75 barrel an
hour gait, but has now subsided to 250 barrels a
day. Mr. Phillips has three n ells drilling on
the Fisher aud one rig up. He also
has a 'rig up on tbe Sweenev farm
ioining the Fisher on the west ana another on
tbe Mrs. Catharine Barrfarm. His No. L on
tbe Barr, two weeks old. is making 50 barrels a
day. This well Is located 120 rods north of
Fisher No. 2, which makes tho territory be
tween tbe Barr and the Fisher wells look like
wheat iu the mill. Ills well drilling on the
Burtner farm, 50 rods still farther northwest
from the Barr well, will determine whether the
pool extends any further in this direction; this
is an important venture. Hartman fc Sons, on
the Byrerly heirs' farm, are drilling Nos. 8 and
9 and have rics up for 10 and II. On the James
Lagan, 40 rods southwest from Byrerly No. 7,
the Associated Producers' Company are build
ing a risr. The Jefferson Oil Company's No. 3,'
on tho Kornraumpt, 60 rods east of tbe James
Logan rig, is nearlng the sand.
WlLDWOon It was reported last nlsht that
Griffith & C.'3 No. 3 Ringhflerhad struck
another pay and was doing 25 barrels an honr.
This report The Dispatch scout was unable
to confirm. The Baddey-Kefer well was doing
at the rate of CO barrels a day Sunday night.
McClay No. 2 struck gas in the top of the
fourth sand, and they shut down to move ont
tbe boiler, and will get to drilling this after
noon some time.
McCurdy There is nothing new to report
from McCurdy. and it may be the middle of
the week before any of tbe wells are in.

THE WEEK IN OIL.
Local Trading Unimportant, but the Price
Crawls Up a Cent.
Tho oil market was strong Saturday, but
trading was light, only 5,000 barrels changing
hands soon after tbe opening at the top price.
The feeling weakened a trifle after this on re
port of a bearish sentiment in New York.
