"Sly friends," replied the old man, "the - ancient Amazon river, whose waters still flaw 01 " fSticer 5 .iietuous Y dition, i flaw over the circle of the equator, no rolls between its snores the im petuous floods which, if we believe tra- , caused it formerly to be compared to a sea. At the period, long since van ished, whentue Jimpire of Brazil, the Ar gentine Eepublicand Colombia flourished in South America; when North America was divided into confederated States; when France,Enpland,Geriiirtny,aiid Russia strug gled for supremacy in European politics, the Atlantic Ocean eiteuded, as we see it ou the maps, from the ruins of iiew York to those of Havre, and from X'ernambuco to Dakar ruins which are now forever buried beneith the ice. The great continent of the West Indies was, it appears, cut up into innumer able small inlands, scattered over an im mense sea. The oceans were far vaster and deeper than to-day, the rains frequent, the rivers inexhaustible, ice and snow never showed themselves in our country, and tbe rays ot a beneficent sun fertilized the earth in its youth, giving birth to flowers and fruits nests and love. "But now all is over with the planet and all the works which have illustrated its history. Thetarth revolves more slowly on its axis, the days have become longer, the moon is more distant and the sun has be come colder. The prediction of the astron omers is fulfilled. The waters of the oceans which the solar beat caused to evaporate in the atraosphefe, aud which gave birth to the clouds, the rains, the springs, the brooks and the rivers, have from century to century been partially absorbed by the deep locks; the air has become drier and drier, and ceased to be a protecting cover for the preservation of the heat received; the noc turnal and even diurnal evaporation has caused all the neat borrowed from the sun to radiate into space, and the cold of the poles comes gradually nearer and nearer the tropical and equatorial zones. "The summits of the mountains had already been long froze u because above them tbe atmosphere was too dry and too rarefied to preserve the heat; but life estab lished itself in the plains and valleys along the streams which traversed the surface of the globe. The limits of vegetation, and, at the same time, the conditions favorable to life, insensibly descended. Tbe last zone of terrestrial life has been the zone of the equatorial plains along the thermic equator, which traverses on one side South America, where we are. and on the other, Central Africa, whence you came. "When Europe had disappeared beneath the invading glaciers comiug from the North Pole, from Siberia, from Lapland, Irom the Alps, from the Caucasus, from the Pyrenees, being finally reduced to the shores of tbe Mediterranean, many centu ries had already elapsed since civilization had abandoned it to shine in America, along which continent it gradually de scended. In consequence of a strange social organization all the States of Europe bad perished iu their own blood; had mutually opened each other's veins. Some Govern ments had convinced millions of citizens that the greatest happiness, the supreme honor and the highest glory consisted in wearing uniforms ot all colors and killing each other to the sound of music They be lieved that until the day when the Chinese iuvasion came and confiscated them like a band of schoolboy. "The annals of modern times report that anciently expeditions had been sent through the ire to fiud the rums of Paris, of London, of Berlin, of Vienna, of St. Petersburg, aud that they had principally fcund lorts, bar racks, arsenals, arms and ammunition ou nearly all the territories. It was doubtless a primitive race hardly differing from the auimal racer. "This opinion is. moreover, confirmed by the books of ancient history preserved in tbe libraues, showiuga state of rude barbar ism in the customs of these populations. "We find, among other things, a long list of curious tortures. Crimiuals were murdered with the sword, with poison, or with a re markable choice of varied weapons. Then tl'cy cut up the bodies into small pieces. So ciety in turn killed the criminals in various ways. Here their beads were cut off by means of axes, swords and guillotines; there they were strangled or hanged; further on they were impaled or drowned. On certain days of revolution in the midst of the capitals of this pretended civilization the victors were seen to place the vanquished quietly along the walls and ttlioot them no Mil by the hundreds. Historians state that nt a period uot lar removed tbe raost civilized cations kept executioners who were exercised iu crushing the limbs, quar tering, taking off tbe skin, burning with red-hot irons, pulling out tbe eyes and the tongue, breaking the limbs and torturing In every manner the victims, whom they gen erally ended by burniug in the public tquafes on holidays. The commentators are right in'saying that these ancestors of our species did uot yet deserve the title of men. "If the end of the world had taken place at this period the destruction of the race would not have becu a great lots. But this ancient race made way tor ours, aud we too must perish. We perish of cold. Sterile nature no longer produces anything. For many centuries past there lias been 110 more wheat or vines, for many centuries there have been no more pastures or flocks. We are now reduced to the last fish. But," sdiled the old man, "the table will still out live the guests, for there are no new-born babes among us; there are actually only men here, those that you see, the last child of the other sex, my poor little Speranza, not hav ing survived her birth." This declaration produced on all tbe mem bers of tbe expedition the effect ot an electric thock. The fall of a thunderbolt in the midst of the assembly would not have brought about a greater confusion. "Whatl" cried the chief of the flotilla. "There is no longer a single woman among you?" "Not a single one," answered one of the guests. "We had just come," added the young chief, "in search of female companions with whom we could associate. Our country is ' still wealthy, and bad we found but one single wife all the riches of our country would have been hers." "You have also no women?" The travelers exchanged a glance and re- maiaed silent. III. Some time before these events happened in Africa and in America, the Island of Ceylon, now attached to the sonthern point of Asia through the diminution of the seas, found itself to be the last refuge of the human race iu Asia, and there in this former earthly paradise not far from the' equator, at the foot of Adam s Peac, 12 women remained the sole heiresses of tbe last unextinguished families. The male sex had completely disappeared. For a long time the number of girls bad been far above that of boys a condition ot tkiugs which corresponded, besides, with the successes obtained by women and their increasing authority in politics and in tbe universal direction ol business. They had gradually substituted luenuelves for the efleniluatc and enervated men as deputies, lawyers, physicians aud, iu general, iu the greater number of social professions, in commerce and industry, arts and literature, pure and applied sciences. The education of the boys had been more and more neg lected, and finally there were do longer even competent gardeners or agriculturists to be found among the men. What the women did uotdo directly with their own hands in the way of industries was accomplished by ingeniously constructed and indefatigable machines. Tbe slow decrease of the or ganic forces ot the globe bad also maci tested itself here by a slow diminution 01 tbe births by a weakening ol the aver age lite, and it was only in rare circum stances and by a sort of heredity that fam ilies counted, as in former tlms, a large number of children. Ai iu our day, in ome countries more cirls than boys were ' bora on the aterace, Toll tendency In- J .jitJL zzi'J g"-'"' --'- creased from generation to generation, and towiird tbe end of the days that remained, for Asia as for other parts of the globe, there were at the period of which we speak only three living families, and by an un fortunate chance, the two boys having died in infancy, 12 beings of the feminine sex were lett alone to represent the. present aud tbe iuture. The youngest, little Eva, was a clyld of 3 years of age; ber mother had reached 40. The last survivor ot the fathers bad died of aneurism of the heart on the day of his wedding. The interest which attaches itself to things and which seems to be the cause of life had diminished with the decrease of population and, with the more and more im minent threat of a defiuite end. Formerly immense and populous, the city had disap peared beneath a poor but .invading vegeta tion; all those ancient dwellings were empty, deserted, ruined, partly hidden be neath tbe moss and weeds, and the traces of tbe ancient boulevards and principal streets were hardly visible to tbe eye. As human ity had retired, so nature had resumed her rights; polar plants, larches, pines, some snow birds and more recently penguins and bears had arrived near the ancient city. The last building which remained standing was tbe public library, in which the purely literary works had nearly all been aban-" doned to the insects and in which were to be found only tbe scientific treatises written on the supreme question of the end of 'the world and the historical annals of the de parted centuries, humanity'not having con sented to its own extinction and having clung to all that personified it. But the fatal day had come Tbe world must end. The decline of human forces had brought about the decline of the inventions and usages which seemed but lately tbe most in dispensable. They had weariedof all, even of hope. Tbe electric motor had fallen into disuse. There was no more traveling after the invasion of the ice. No attempt had even been made to repair the Interrupted telegraphic communication:. Only a lew centuries before all the inhabitants of the globe, in whatever portion they niayhave dwelt, had constant intercourse with each other, as though they had inhabited the same country, conversing and hearing each other, whatever may have been the distance that separated tbein, and there was but one nation and one single language lor all the globe. But now isolation and separation hud returned as in the primitive ages; the three groups remaining iu the world no longer knew each other; and the population of Ceylon, although composed only of women, had lost all spirit of domination, all sentiment of curiosity, all eneigy anil all vitality. Henceforth, deprived of all de sire of pleasing, ol all idea of rivalry and of all coquetry, they lormed among themselves but one laruily "of sisters, associated in a common misfortune, and they had all adopted a somber mourning costume, a sort ol black and misshapen religious garment. But this little population itself had rap idly diminished. Fifteen years had sufficed to reduce it by more than half. At the mo ment when tne events narrated above took place there remained but the youngest of the Ceylonese, then 18 years of age, with four el her companions. IY. We left our aerial expedition iu the midst of the stupefaction caused by the avowal of the Americans. No more women in America. The same situation, or almost the same, in Africa. Europe buried be neath the snows, Asia forgotten for more than a century, and doubtless sharing the same fat: as Europe. There was nothing lett for the travelers but to return to their own country, and that was decided on the very next day. They visited tbe ruins of the American metropolis, the glories of which had been celebrated by the historians and which now lay forgotten. For one instant they thought of uniting in one group the two wrecks of male humanity and of all leaving together lor Suntown, but on the one hand these men wished only to sleep forever in the tombs of their ancestors, and on the other hand the travelers, who had carefully concealed the existence of women in their own country, did not insist ou this brotherly project. Thev resumed tbeir way through the air, deciding, lion ever, as they had come by the east, to follow the same direction along the equator ou tbeir return, in order lo see whether, by some unforeseen circumstance, they might not discover some other last living tribe. Thus it was that after having crossed tbe immense Pacific Ocean, and having stopped over all the points that emerged above its surface, even nt the moment when they had noticed that the eternal winter announced by scientists exteuded over the lands of Slam, of Java, of Sumatra and of Malacca, entirely deserted, they noticed la Ceylon a region less invaded than the others by the ice and snow, aud stationing themselves for some time above a ruined city they dis covered a small group of women in mourn ing. Iu one instant, and before they had had time to recover from their surprise, tbe celestial travelers were at their feet. At other periods, when the right of might gov erned humanity, these last five daughters of Eve would have beeu rudely seized and car ried away at full speed through the air to ward tbe Atrlcan city, perhups not without a struggle, for tbe number of the men was superior to that of the women. But for a long time they had ceased to exert their strength; sentiment, reason, intelligence, freedom of choice, always decided. Tney told the object of their explorations, and had no difficulty in convincing the fair Asiatics. Their despair, which had seemed eternal, disappeared ilkea mist; their brows were cleared, their lips smiled, and a lew hours after the arrival of the aeronauts the five nunsln mourning had giveu way to tbe 'most elegant ot women. They even discussed the advantages of a return to Suntown, and it seemed that from (the point of view of peace, happiness and tranquility, it would be preferable to remain iu Ceylon. But the old provision stores were well nigh exhausted, the fields aud gardens were wanting, the ice was near; while in Africa the fatal moment seemed perhaps many years off. From the first in terview, Omegar and Eva had experienced tbe effects of mutual attraction, and bad un derstood each other as though they bad met again after a long separation. Omegar bad a deep affection for his mqtber, and would be proud to present his companion to her. A fortnight alter their arrival, the explorers, rich in their discovery, embarked on their aerial flotilla and set sail for Suntown. The resurrection of humanity was assured. What a triumph and what rejoicing on their re turn! " But what was their disappointment, on ar riving above the antique city, to see none of their fellow citizens come lorward lo receive them; to find the public square, where tbey were in the habit ot meeting, silent and de serted; to have before their eyes naught save a sort of desolate cemetery. Descending from their aerial boats they first rushed'with tbeir companions to the Government palace. A tright.ul spectacle oflered itseli to their gaze. Their relatives, their friends, lay around, dead or dying. The population of the city, reduced after the departure of the travelers to about 30 persons, had undergone during their absence ot a lew months a snow cyclone, which had destroyed tbe last vege table growth and part of the habitable dwell ings. Tbe small remnant had chosen as a refuge the spacious and stronger rooms of tbe palace, but au epidemic, a sort of typhus, had attacked first the weaker constitutions and had afterward stricken the others. The strength of the bravest had finally given wa and the first care of the travelers was to assist tbeir unhappy fellow citizens. Unfortunately the cold increased dally, a bitter wind blew unce&singly, and tbe pale rays of tbe sun could not even penetrate tbe thick mists. Tbe only means of preserving a little heat was by keeping up fires ana cuttiug ofl almost every communication with the outdoor air; but the bravest, the most courageous, lost all hope. At every new death thev counted eneb otber. From 15 they descended in a few weed to 10, then 5; nn-i at last Omegar and Era remained alone, seeing without delusion the late which awaited them, and well knowing tbat no otber spring would erer bloom on'eartb. However, after a long succession of dis astrous dsyi the sua showed itislfia ft THE- cletr spot between the, clouds, the wind ceased, the blue sky reappeared. The young couple then rose in an aerial boat to judge of the last invasions and the snow, and perceived that the whole city was buried, and tbat it was only toward the north that the country had beeu a little spared. Carrying away with them all tbe provis ions they could find, they decided to follow the direction of the spared districts and see if some oasis could uot be found in tbe midst of the immense fields of ice. V. In consequence of the nature of the soil, and because of the scarcity of rains, of snow aud of clouds in that region, tbe great Afri can desert that extends south of tbe Sahara had remained one of the least cold zones of the globe, and a warm current blowing from that desert on Nubia and Arabia, to return to the equator by Ceylon, had for a long time left a part ofEsrypt free, from the inva sion of ice and snow. Following the indi cated direction the last human couple hov ered above tbe regions formerly watered By the Nile, henceforth frozen. They perceived the rteat pyramid, ruined, but still stand ing This, first monument of humanity, the testimony to the antiquity or civilization, was still standing. Its geometric stability had saved it. It wa perhaps the only human idea that had attained its end. b Created by Cheops to eternally protect his ruyai mummv, mis lomu unufluiTiicuiuD revolution i which bad destroyed everything else. The last man had come to join-the first king and shelter himself beneath bis shroud. But the wind ef the tempest was blowing again. A flue powdery snow was spreading over tbe immense desert. "Let us stop here and rest," said .Eva, "since we are condemned to death; and, be sides, wbo has not been? I wish to die in peace in thine own arms." They looked for a cavity among the ruins and seated themselves, contemplating the endless space covered with powdery snow. The young woman crouched feverishly, holdiug her husband in her arms, trying to struggle with ber energy 'against the inva sion of the cold that penetrated her. He had. drawn her to his heart and warmed her with his kisses. But the wind and the tem pest had resumed tbeir sway, and the fine snow beat in clouds around the pyramid. "ily beloved," he resumed, "we are the last inhabitants of the earth, the last survi vors of so many generations. What remains of all the glories, of all the countries, of all the works of the human mind; of all the sciences, ol all tbe arts, of all the inven tions? The entire globe is at this moment oulv a tomb covered with snow." "Yes," she said, i'l have heard of the beautiea who reigned oyer the hearts of Kings and shone like admirable stars in the history of humanity. Love, beauty, all must end. Hove you, and I die. Oh! bow I would have loved that dear treasure, the one who will never live. But no, we must not die, must we? No! Come, I am no longer cold. Let us walk." Her feet, already frozen and benumbed, had become inert. She tried to rise and fell back. "t seem to be sleepy," she said. "Oh, let ns sleep." And throwing her arms around Omegar she pressed her lips to his. The young man lifted her beautiful form aud laid her on bis knees. She was already asleep. "I love yon," he said again. "Sleep, I shall watch over vou." Then his fixed gaz:, shining with a last light, lost itself in a search for the unknown in the desolate grav sky and in the silent and endless plain. No sound came to trouble tbe death ot nature; the snow wind alone moaned around the pyramid and seemed to wish to awaken the old Pharoah sleeping in its depths for so many millions years. Suddenly the noise of footsteps and moans was heard, lost in the distance. Was it some lethargic awakening in the interior of tbe monument? Was it a heavy bird thrown bv the tempest against the dismantled steps? Wns it some polar bear come with tbe.sunw? Tbe noise ceased. A joyful cry sounded, and with one bonnd n dog, broken ,by fatigue, jumped on the sleeping couple. It was Oniegar's dog that had, looked for him, followed him (how?) and found him in spite of tbe distance, tne solitude and, the snow. He called bis master and mistress, licked their ftce and bands and covered them with his body to warm them. But tbey did 'uot nwuke. And the snow continued to fall In a fine powder on to tbe entire surface of the earth. And the earth continued to turn on its axis night and dny cud to float through the immensity of spaee. And the sun continued to shine, bat with a reddish mid barren light' But long after ward it became entirely extinguished, and tho dark terrestrial cemetery continued to revolve in tbe night around the enormous invisible black ball. And the stars continued to scintillate in tbe immensity of the heavens. And the infinlte'universecontlnaed to ex ist with its billions of suns and its billions of living or extinct planets. And in all the worlds peopled with the Joys of life love continued to bloom beneath tbe smiling glance of tbe Eternal., Oamille ITlammabion.

Judges Acheson and Reed Hear Arguments In the Injunction Suit of Ralney Venus United Mine Workers' .Officials Some of i the Defendants Residents of Ohio. Judges Acfeson and Bced yesterday af ternoon heard arguments on the motion of W. J. Bainey vs. John McSlor, et al, ask ing that a preliminary injunction be issued against the defendants restraining them from congregating in or about' the coke works of the plaintiff, and to restrain them from inciting others to do the same. tThe defendants are John McSIoy, J. B. Rac, John McBride, C. M: Parker, Peter Wise, Jobu Do Haven, Frank Kerfoot and L Mike Diserjal,- all of whom are connected with tbe organization of United Mine Workers of America, and many of whom are officers of it, J. B. llae being tbe Presi dent. , It is alleged tbat during tho strikes at the McCluro and II. C. Frick coke works from February IS to 27, the utmost disorder prevailed aud communicated to the works of the plaintiff, which are in the neighbor, hood, and that the defendants held meetings about, and on the property ot tbe plaintiff, inciting the men there employed and intim idating them to quit work. A restraining order was issued compelling the defendants to prevent the mee'tlngi until the motion for tbe preliminary injunction could be argued. The argument was taken up yesterday. Johns MoClcave represented Mr.Rniuey and John Garrison, the defendants. The first mutter taken up was a motion of the defend uts to have tbe suit dismissed on the ground that It was nnt within the jurisdiction of tbe court of tile Western District of Pennsyl vania. This motion was based on the fact that the bill asking Inr the injunction set forth that the plaintiff was a resident ofOblo aud that lhe defendants were all residents of Pennsylvania residing in the West ern District. Tbe argument being thnf the suit should be dis missed, as J. B. Baeand John McBride are residents ofOhin and not under the jurisdic tion of tbe Pennsylvania court, inasmuch as it hears on this case. Attorney McCleave claimed that the suit should not be dismissed; that the defendants J who were not residents ol tins mate coma be dropped from tbe list. He then based his argument for the injunctiou on affidavits filed by W T. Bainey, Thomas Lowdeii, Joseph Lowden, John Echard, A. J. Hill, J. G. Hill. J. L. Hill, Scott Franks, J. O. Willey, J. B. Henderson, George Grady, Solomon Smith and Bobert E. Umbel. These affidavits stated that the defendants Incited by meetings, etc., the men to do damage to the works of the plaintiff and trespassed on the property of the same. Attorney Garrison argued for the de fendants that the bill was defective; that the court had no jurisdiction over them as a whole because two of the defendants were residents of Ohio. He then produced affidavits from the defendants and a num ber of other men which set lorth that in many of tbe iustances averred the defend ants were not at meetings they were said to have addressed, and also that they were peaceful, law-abiding citizens, and dnied in full the allegations against them. The Court took tbe papers and reserved its decision. A HETE0E STOPS A TBAIir. ' People Along a Texas Railroad Frightened by Its Explosion. Victobia, Tex., May 8. A large me teor passed over this section last evening. It came from the uortbeast, and was teen or heard all along the line of the railway from Rosenberg to Giliad, a distance of abont 120 miles. About tbe time the. meteor reached ibis vicinity it exploded with a tremendons report. As the sky was perfectly cloudless people imagined for a brief time'tbat it was a boiler explosion, and then it was .attrib uted to au earthquake. The braltenian on a freight train near Ira, a small station 12 miles west of bear, saw tbe meteor burst. He says oue of the frag ments, which appeared to be about as large as his head, struck the earth not more than 100 yards from the railway track. Tbe con cussion of the explosion was so great that it momentarily stopped the progress of the train, this fact being noted by all the train men. The conduotor thought the engineer had suddenly applied tbe airbrakes, and he ran to the door to see what was the matter. Major McCandless Honored.

The well In Bemis Park is environed with deep mystery, so that at tbe hour of closing this'report really no reliable information is obtainable. Counteracting reports are in cirdulation, while guesses at tbe result of the well are as numerous as the spring roses. One rumor which finds considerable favor among the "profession" is to the effect-that the mystery is no good. This, however, has not been authoritatively confirmed or denied, and there the matter rests. One gentleman who claimed to know a "thing or two," iu speaking with me last evening, said that be was of tbe .opinion that tbe owners were trying to work a big game of bluff. The report reached here a day or two since that a genuine geyser had been tapped down at Pappillion. For an hour of two excitement was at fever beat, some thing similar to the occasion of opening Colonel Dyer's big Smith bonauza In the Washington fleld. Evervbody hustled or tho Western Union Telegraph office, and in a short time Jay Qonld's wires were working to their full capacity. Later, reports were to the effect that a small quantity of oil bad been encoun tered in an artesian well probably a small pocket and so the big "spouter" Droved to be a water well. . Many, however, are led to be lieve that oil in paying quantities exists in Nebraska. Of course, this is mere guess work, and nothing but tbe drill will ever determine tbe truth. The Situation in Wyoming. Ont in Wyoming operations have commenced to brighten. Private advices state that a cum ber of new wells have been contracted for and rigs are now In coarse of erection. A com mercial club has already been organized for tbe purpose of advertising the fleld. Everyday or so Tmeet some "old timer" going out there. They are all ot tbe same opinion. Tbat is, a big field will be opened and that at no distant day. Men are now on the ground, and if it be an indication tbat tbey have faith In it by in venting tbeir money, tbey have surely great confidence. I have never met a man yet who did not speak in glowing terms of tbe Wyom ing basin. One interesting feature is that It requires no bonus nor lease to secure territory. All tbe wells are now going down onOorernmcnt land under tbe mining act. Bo. to a certain extent, this will bar the Htandard, and put all outsid ers on an equal -basis. This Held, at any rate, will be worm noticing. In the Colorado fleld everything is on the move. TJie Colorado Oil Company's No. 67 was drilled in last week, and is good for from 150 to ZOO barrels a day. Tho same comnany has sev eral other wells due the first of next week. Tbo new refinery is well under way, and in a day or so they will be refining their own grease. A number ot old wells are bning cleaned out and some drilled deeper, while new locations aro being made daily. The Kocky Mountain Oil Company is arrang ing to sink a number of wells in advance of presenf operations, all of which will be watched with much interest. In the Home Fields. If tbe present state of affairs prevail In tbe Pennsylvania and West Virginia fleld the re mainder of the month, tbe redaction of tbe outpntwill simply be surprising. Now that Wlldwood is on the downward course, with bnt little prospects of a revival of the boom which gave it a national reputation, and the great 100 foot in Butler county not producing mora man nan or. wntt it am two or three months ago, It must be taken for granted, unless a prolific poolfr found in some quarter, that a material de create in production Is lnorltable, and In tbe natural course ot things better prices should fircdoinlnate. While It Is true that there is a argo amount of wlldcattlng being done In West Virginia, It is also an admitted fact tbat for tbe past year scarcely one of theso von tures have materialized into paying Invest ments, or developed territory tbat even pros pectively looks well. In speaking of the reduction ot tbo outpnt in tho southwest for tbe noxt 30 or 60 days, it should ba remembered tbe Houtli I'enn and Forest Oil Companies possess about .all the available territory In tbe Old Dominion, which tbey will most likely operato in a very conserva tive manner, and the new production will hardly keep pace with the decline of the old wells. The aggregate runs of tbe entire southwest division for tho month of April wore 091,772 barrels, which, compared with March, Is a marked decline, and at tho same ratio ot falling off tbo 1st of June will find these figures con siderably less. It Is not likely tbat tbo great hurrah at Claysvllle will develop Into anything that will lead te a retnrn nf tbe halcyon days tbat once characterized this pool. 1 Tho Field Situation Tu-Dny. Thero Is nothing of sneclal moment in tbe flclu situation to-day. In different sections several small wells have come in, but in no in stance are thoy subjects of raoro than a passing notice and do not have any special bearing on new territory. At noon W. L. Mellon Is far enough in tbe sand with his Parry farm well, 1,500 feet west of Hervey Brothers' MoKaddenfnrm producer, to Indicate tbat tbe well Is good for 40 barrels on tbe start. It was expected by this time tbat Black t Co.'s wildcat well on tbeMenke farm at Mc Curdy wonld have been deep enongh to tell the story. Unfortunately tbe tools were lost in the hole last nlgbr, and It now looks as If several days will elapso beforn tbey will got to drilling again. Tbe well Is spraying about 15 barrels a day. In tbls same Uelil V. L. Mellon Is on toff the sand with bis No. 3 Scott, as Is also Wilson & Co. on tbe Cemetery lot. At Six Points, McKee & Co. have Just com pleted a duster on the Campbell farm. McKee & Jennings are building a rig on the Jennings farm at Queenstown. W. L. ilelloa's wild cat venture In West Virginia, near Blacks vlllo, Is through tbe sand with no oil, but It Is a GOO-pound gasser. When asked It he contem plated drilling more wells in this locality. Mr. Mellon laconically remarked be was going to get out and most emphatically stay out of that country. H. McC. Tcsterday's Prices and Bans.
