GETTING MOEE OIL.
Wonderful Production of the McDon
ald Field Increasing.
OVER SIXTEEN THOUSAND BARRELS
TVere Bun From the Wells in That Prolific
Territory Testerday.
LATE EEPORTS FE03T OTHER FELDB
Since the fire at the "Wheeling Gas Com
pany's Cook lot well at McDonald has been
extinguished, operators hare again turned
their attention to the wells. The wonderful
production of this field is commented on
everywhere. Nothing like it has ever been
' teen. Its sudden rise, the extent of
' the field, and the big wells which
are being found at long distances
from one another have never been
equaled. In nearly every instance where
such producers have been struck heretofore.
' they were like the famous "borealis race, a
moment seen then gone forever." They
were soda water wells, and soon dropped
into obscurity. Such has not been the case
in the McDonald region, which might be
raid to include everything from the
"Wright well in southwest .McCurdy to
the Jumbo well of the Koyal
Gas Company below McDonald station, and
the big wells are stayers. The Matthews
jfarm well of Guffey, Jennings, Murphy &
Co. is one of the greatest wells in the
'history of the oil country. It is over 45
' davs old and has produced over 65,000 bar-
. refs of oil, and is still putting out 115 bar-
; xcis an nour. i nas me advantage, now
T ever, of being alone in a large block of un
! -drilled territory. An example of a big
well surrounded by others is that of
iX.e Comte '& Vallilee on the Short lot in
McDonald borough. It is just a month old
and has prodacea over 40,000 barrels of oil,
and yesterday was flowing at the rate of 40
barrels an hour.
There Are No Dry Holes.
Another remarkable feature in connection
with this field is that there have been no
Kdryholei Only a tew of the wells drilled
1 so far will make small pumpers. "Where
thev ha e been dry in the Gordon there was
' oil in the fifth sand, and vice versa.
The production of this territory from
Southwest McCurdy to the southwestern
edge ot the McDonald field was about 10,000
barrels yesterday. There are eight wells at
JIcDonald whicii will get the filth sand be
fore the middle of next week, when it is be
lieved that the daily production will be
Tery materially increased. The following
was the hourly production of some
,of the big wells yesterdav: Guffey,
; Jennings, Murphv it Co.s Matthews
pro. 1, 115 barrels; Gufley & Murphy's
Ualdwm No. 1, 80 barrels; lloscher, Farnn
iger & Co.'s V. P. Church lot well, 40 bar
rels; Gartland & Ilav's Miller No. 1. 45 bar
rels; their Miller No. 2, 95 barrels;
Gukert, Steel & Egbert's Xo. 1 Mevey,
iO barrels: Hoyal Gas Company's Xo. 1
Mary Kobb, 45 "barrels: Le Comte & Valli
lee's Short lot well, 40 barrels; "Wheeling
- Gas Company's Cook lot well, 75 barrels.
These nine wells are all drilled in the fifth
sand, and their aggregate daily production
is 14,700 barrels, vt hich leaves 1,800 barrels
'to be divided among the small fifth sanders
.and the Gordon sand wells.
IThat the Drill Is Doing.
McDoxAt,D Operators were anxiously
matching Shaffer ir Co.'s well on the JTanny
J.olinson lot yesterday. It is located back
of the railroad station and is about 300 feet
j north of east from the Cook lot well. It is
making oter 100 barrels from the Gor
don sand and was expected to
resell the fifth sand yesterdav. At
so o clocK last evening it had not
-entered the lower stratum, but was ex
Jpccted to get it late lat night Gartland &
Co., on the DeKoy lot, one location south
west of the Johnson, are down 1,950 feet
and will get the Gordon Monday. Sauters
& Co., on the Sauters lot, back of tlia res
taurant, at the station, will get the fifth to
night. It is making ISO barrels a day from
the Gordon sand. Kelly & Co., on the
Davis lot, located 400 feet east of the Butler
lot well, is in the fifth and light. It has no
gas. Pew&Emeron,ontheJohnslotl50feet
west of Mr. Davis, is making a fair showing
in the Gordon, llowland & Co., on the
McLain lot, are down 1,700 feet. Dibert&
Co. are fishing for two strings of tools on
"the Scott lot. They have been fishing for a
week and may liave to plug the hole. Say
i; Co. are spudding on Mungewitz lot.
Thompson & Co., on the Haddeu lot, are
down 1,100 feet. Ireland & Hnghes were
drilling in the fifth sand yesterday after
noon, and expect to get a pay at 12 feet. The
well would make a good pumper
jrom me uoraon. n is one loca
tion north of the Ilutler lot well.
Brady & Co. are through the Gordon on the
'Scott lot J. B. Samuels' well on the
Campbell lot is a good well in the Gordon,
and was reported as doing ten barrels an
hour from that level. Guffey & Murphy's
No. 1 Sturgeon is down 500" feet, and their
No. 2 Sturgeon 300 feet Their well on the
Elliott farm northeast of the Mevey is mak
ing 50 barrels from the Gordon, and should
get the fifth to-night Hardman & Co., on
the Sauters three acres, near the Boyal Gas
Company's old Sauters No. 3, is on top
of the Gordon. George A. Martin & Co.
are down 1,000 feet on the Heiscr.
Shaffer & Co. have a rig up on the Albert
cttengcl farm back of Noblestown. The 1
well ol Mellon, Wilson & Sparks on the
McCarty farm, two miles southwest of Mc
Donald, will make a five or tenjjarrel well
from the Gordon sand. It has ouly made
one flow so far, and then it put ont35 bar
rels. If there is a fifth sand in this
well it should be reached to-night
In the Old Third Sand.
Wildwood Lydeeker&Co.'s well on
the Perner farm in the Southwestern part
of this field w ill make more than a 200-bar-rtl
well. It is almost :urrounded by dry
holes and operators believe that it has sim
ply struck a little pocket of oil. Patterson
A Go. shot their well on the Poff farm yes
terday in the fifth sand. It will make
a small pumper. "Waterhouse & Co.
have hhot their Xo. 3 on the
Vhitetcll farm, without greatly improving
it. It will not go over 50 barrels a day.
Barnsdall & Gillespie's Xo. 12 on the Kress
farm has been shot and increased slightly.
Evans & Mandevillc's Xo. 5 on the Kretzer
is down 1,300 feet Their Xo. 4 on the
Wright farm is t-till drilling in the sand
without much show of improvement.
Through tho Gordon Sand.
JIcCnitDY Gordnier, Kennedy & Fitz
gibbon's well on the Mertz farm, located 70n
feet southwest of the Fisher Oil Com
pany's big well on the JlcMichacl
farm, is through the Gordon sand, and -dry
in that stratum. The Orion Oil Co.'s Xo. 3
on the Bell farm, is good for 100 barrels a
day. Their Xo. o on the same fann will
fet the sand the middle of nest week,
loffman & Co., on the Jloore larm, are in
the Gordon sand.
In the Hundred I'oot.
Grovetok W. P. Black drilled his well
on the Margcret Byrne farm into tho 100
Joot sand yesterday and it started off at the
rate of 125 barrelsaday. It is located 350
feet northeast of the famous Depp farm well
of the Fort Pitt Gas Co.
Nearlng the Sand.
CoitAOPOLis W. P. Black's Xo. 1 on
the Thomas "Watson farm will get the sand
next Tuesday.
In the Tyler FooL
TVLER, O. The Tennant well on the
Russell farm over the river and the Mitten
dorf well both have oil in them in paying
quantities but just what they will make
cannot be told in this issue of our paper for
the reason that they are preparing to pump
them and cannot tell what they can do until
the pump works a week or eo. They are
both good big ones after they are triefl
awhile with the pump.
Some leasing has been done on this side
of the river. One person leased at a cash
rental of 553 a month in advance. Other
persons have been offered good rentals, and
oil leasers are still quite plentiful in our
town. . TZ. vgiJ J, .
Ohio and Indiana.
Bowling Green, O. The Brown Oil
Co.'s No. 2 on the P. J. and G. M. Brown
farm, situated in the southeast quarter of
section 23, Plain township, and located 500
feet west of No. 1 on the same farm, is by
far the best producing well now in the Ohio
field. It is doing 1,500 barrels of clear oil
adav. It is only located about one and-a
half"miles northwest of this city. The same
company are still fishing in the Band on
their No. 2 Kramp farm, and located iusf
north of No. 1, Brown. They are building
a rig for No. 3 on the Brown larni, which is
located about 500 feet east of No. 1
on the same farm. Their No. 1 on
the Snyder farm, situated on the
southwest quarter of the south
east quarter ot section 14, same township,
and only about 100 rods northeast of No. 2
Kramp, is expected to-strike the pay the
coming week.
"W. J Milliken & Co.'s No. 2, located
on the Charles Tracy farm, is doing 250 bar
rels a day of roily oil. No. 1, on this farm,
is a 2,250,000. cubic-foot gas well, and is lo
cated midway between No. 2 and the Bow
line Green nooL "
The Ohio Oil Company's No. 1, located
on the northeast corner of the George T.
Bidd farm, is completed and is good lor 25
barrels a day. This well is located in the
dip and as near as could be. learned cased at
over 500 feet When the same company
will complete their test located on the
northeast corner of the Isaac Brown farm
100 rods southwest in advance from the
pool, is not known, as they have been de
layed for some time bv a crooked hole.
Carrother Bros", well, on the Brim farm,
in section 13, and one mile northwest of the
pool, is due to strike the pay about Satur
day. Case, McDonald & Co.'s No. 1, on
the Hopper farm, situated on the southeast
corner ot the southeast quarter of the north
east quarter of section 15. and 80 rods west
of the Wilcox farm gas well, is-due to strike
the sand about Saturday.
Montpelier, Ixd. Merritt & McMan
have completed their prominent test, locat
ed on the northwest corner of the J. Odell
farm, situated on the northeast quarter of
the southeast quarter ot section .n, .Not
tingham township, Well county. The well
is located one and a half miles southeast of
the Cory farm well, one-half a mile south
and east of the Varger, and one and a half
miles southwest of the Brown farm dusters.
It is showing for as good as any that has
been drilled in the Nottingham pooh It
widens the field to the southeast
In Butler County.
Butler At Zelienople, Younkin, Dale
& Co.'s No. 1, on the Herr farm, is 20 feet
in the sand and showing light
McKinney Oil Company's well on the
McCurdy farm, is 50 feet in the sand with
about 200 feet of oil in the hole.
Captain Marsh's well, on the Mueller
farm, is in the sand and made several small
flows. Jt indicates for a 50-barrel welL
In the Cranberry district A. Steelsmith
has hia No. 3 in tne sand and it is showing
for 50 barrels.
The Forest Oil Company's No. 1, on the
Catherine Garvin, is 30 feet in the sand and
showing for a good well. Their No. 1, on
the Wallace farm, nearBolard&Cummings'
Kennedy farm well, is not showing tor
more than for a ten-barrel welL,
The Lentz Schlcgel well, on the Garvin
farm, is now making about ten barrels per
hour. The owners are getting things in
shape and will probably agitate the well
soon.
The Forty-Five Degree Line.
A correspondent writing from Oakdale
asks how it is possible for the Greenlee &
Forst well on the Miller farm at that place
and the Forest Oil Company's well on the
Herron at Noblestown to define the eastern
limits of the oil belt when the Herron farm
is over a mile west of the Miller farm. He
also seems confused because the whole
McCurdy field is east of the Miller farm. It
has been determined by oil operators that
an oil oelt always runs lrom tne northeast
to the southwest on a 45 line from a north
and south line. By taking a map and fol
lowing a 45 line irom the McCurdy field
in the southwest he will easily understand
w hv the Herron well is west of the Miller
well, and how they both come to be eastern
edge wells.
Where Credit Is Due.
A complaint was made toTHE Dispatch
oil scout yesterdav because Glenn T.Braden
was given the credit for putting out the fire
in the Cook lot well at McDonald. Mr.
Bradcn did not give up the job, as stated in
the complaint Afterall other devices had
failed he went to Oil City and had the
tapering point made at the National Tran
sit shops, which was afterward placed In
the burning well and by means nf which the
flames were extinguished. This point is
still in the well.

LOUIS PAULSEN.1
Continued From Last Issue.
In the London Tonrnament, 1862, Paulsen
won the second prize, Anderssen being first.
A match with Anderssen followed, which
was given up as a draw after each had won
threo games.
In the Hamburg Tournament, 1867, ho won
second prize.
In Crefleld, 1871, he tied for first, second
and third, with Anderssen and Hlnckwitz.
In 1876 he defeated Anderssen in a match
by 6 to 4 and 1 draw.
In 1877, at Leipsic, he won tho first prize.
A match with Anderssen followed, which
Paulsen won by 5 to 3 and 1 draw.
In 1S73, at Frankfort, at tho West German,
Chess Association, he won tho first prize,
and again at Brunswick in 1SS0.
In subsequent congresses ho did not make
so good a record, which is explained bv the
fact that be had very little practice all the
year round, his time being devoted to the
business or the Paulsen Bros. -
Unrivaled ns a practical nnd original
player, second to none as a blindfold plaver,
Xonls Paulson stands foremost as one of the
pioneors in the theory of the game. There
is hurdly an opening which he has not en
riched with original variations. The chief
distinction, however, is that Paulsen was an
amateur, and chess his favorite pastime
only.
The following table taken from "Schack
Jahrbnch" for 1691, shows the number of
games he won, lost and drew in tournament
and match play only.

(a) It is no exaggeration to say that up to
this point five minutes were taken up by
the Professor's deliberations in getting his
Rotterdam pipe in perfect pulling order
until smoke us belching forth like a little
Vesuvius much to tho amazement of our
guest, who, through the enveloping clouds,
was struggling to get a glimpse of his
pieces.
(h) Another ten minutes had been used
to this stage, when the Professor paused to
order tno glasses of lager beer, one of which
he placed before the champion, took a swig
from the other, and the gniSB went on.
(e) "I think ye know the book play," re
marked the veteran. "No, my fren, I blay
no pooks, I play mit my pralns. The pooks
vos a humbug: dot vos tho troubles mit me
ud first. I belief all the the pooks say: now
I belief noding but vot I see. I'd vos a lucky
man dat win from me now. (Puu.) I'd vos
your move, Mr. Vllley." (PufT.) "I ken
that," said Mr. Wyllie, "but I canna seo the
board."
(d) Between Mr. Wyllie's gasping for
breath and the time lost in groping for his
men, and the Dutch deliberation of the Pro
fessor three-fourths of an hour, three glasses
ot Ubor ana tnreo pipes 01 tooacco nan ueoa
consumed before tills position was reached,
and the champion t as getting bewildered.
(e) "How vos dot strike you, eh? You
must keep your eye open mit me," said the
Professor, as he belched forth another cloud
of smoke.
(x) These moves were repeated several
times before Mr. Wyllio finally announced
the same a draw; then he pointed out that
instead of 22-2G, 22-18, 28-24, 20-27, 10-7. 3-10,
16-19,23-16, 32-7 drawing. But the Professor
replied: "You vos n very lucky man a very
lucky man, inteed; for, if you played dot
22-lSi I vos going to smash you lite so 32-27,
23-32, 10-7. 3-10. 12-8, 4-11, 16-23 hal ha! Now,
vot vou dink?"
Well." said Mr. Wyllie dryly, "I think
next time we'll havo to play restricted."
'Restricted to one pipe of tobacco."
"You dink I'm a goot blayor, ebt"
"Oh, I do; I wouldn't play ye again for a
poond a game:"
After this the Professor was tho proudest
man in the club, a perfect picture ofcon
tentment as he sat smoking his pipe, with a
foaming tankard bcfoie him.
Mr. Wyllie afterward said to me: "I never
came so near being smothered in a' my
travels." .James Hill, in the Herald.

To the Checker Editor of the Dtspatc&i
In your last issue you have an error in Mr.
Armstrong's position. There Is a man on 1,
when it should be on 3, ns is seen by second
move of his solution. Ho goes 3-8 and gives
play for a draw. I would like to seo Mr.
Maize show the black win to Mr. Armstrong's
position. It is clear that after 2-6 black can
not win by tho cut, 21-25, SO- 21 14-18, 21 14, 18-11,
16-7, so that 3-8 looks best tor blacks. If white
played 16-12 black would win by H-1S, 12-3
21-25, 30-14, 18-11, black wins, bnt by 24-19, 15-24,
6-15, seems to give whites a good game. Wo
think it is only due your readors that Mr,
Maize clears up the above play. He seemed
to feel that his correction had beon over
looked by the great analysists on tho other
side of the Atlantic. If Mr. Armstrong's coi
rection corrects published play let him also
have due credit. Air OusEUVEn.
The above mistake was an error of Mr.
Armstrong's. We Just gave the figures as he
sent them to us on a postal card. When we
receivo piay at cue last minute we nave not
the time to run up tho games on tho board
for mistakes; we trust to tho critics them
selves to send us their analysis correctly;
but mistakes occur, nnd we are always haopy
to acknowledge errors and to correct them
a3 early as possible.
WYLLIB'S VEKSIOX OP THE DISrUTE.
When two players contest a match for a
stake, thev must play according to the con
ditions of the articles. Should a stakeholder
attempt to go out of the boundary of said
articles, he violates his honor as a stake
holder. Tho articles between Mr. Reed and
Tnvsnlf were written by Mr. Heften I sl-rnnd
them when they arrived In Brlsbane.Qucens
land, in presence of Mr. Mar, who also put
his signature to them as a witness. I then
inclosed them in a letter, along with
.20 16s. 8d. as my first deposit, and sent them
to Mr. Dunlap. That deposit I have never
forfeited, ror Jtir. iiutuap nact no right to
make aplea on a letter that had nothing to
do with the articles. As to the critics Beat
tie, Martins and McKelvle of them I will
take no notice. Jakes Wyllie.

"I was in a very serious condition, when I
went to see the physicians of the Electro
pathic Institute at 507 Penn avenue," said
Mrs. Roberts. JThad had nervous prostration
and heart trouble for a long time. I had
been under the care of various physicians,
but none of them seemed to understand my
case, audi kept growing worse all the time.
Kow all is changed, my trouble has entirely
disappeared, and I owe it to the treatment
received at the hands of these physicians."
The lady speaking was 3Irs. Mary Rob
erts, of No. 2746 Oakley alley.
"As I said," continued Mrs. Roberts, "I
had nervous prostration and symptoms of
apoplexy. Three of my brothers were para
lyzed, and I feared very much that I would
be a victim of the same trouble. My heart
was very weak, and I was afraid of heart
failure. I was sick all the time; never felt
what I could call real well. I had no appe
tite, and was so terribly nervous that 1 could
not Sleep. My whole system seemed to be
run down, and I lost in weight steadily. I
thought I never would get well.
"I was advised to go.to the physicians of
the Electropathic Institute. I called on
them and placed myself under their care.
"The very first treatment gave me relief.
I continued to improve, and now all my
trouble has disappeared, and I am enjoying
the best of health. I will gladly recom
mend the physicians of the Eltctropathic
Institute, and feel sure that all who go to
them will obtain great benefit from their
treatment."
A BRAKEMAN'S STORY.
Mr.
Thomas McGreqvey, of Fort Perry,
Gives Some Interesting Evidence.
Mr. Thomas McGreevy, a well-known
railroad brakeman residing at Port Perry,
in speaking of his successful treatment with
the physicians of the Electropathic Insti
tute, said:
"I have had catarrh and catarrhal deaf
ness also. The discharges from my
ears were large and most distress
ing, and my ears presented a very unsightly
and unpleasant appearance. My head
ached nearly all of the time, the dise'ase had
so affected my stomach as to seri
ously impair my digestion, and
my nervous system was almost ruined. I
Thomas 3fcOreecty, Port Perry, Pa.
almost despaired of ever being any better,
when my attention was attracted to the
Electropathic Institute of 607 Penn avenue,
Pittsburg, and its method of treatment.
1 called on the physicians in charge and
they made an electrical diagnosis of my
case, discovered the true nature of the
disease and pronounced it curable. The re
sult has verified their verdict. 1 am cured.
My. catarrh, my.deafness and the discharges
from my ears are thoroughly cured. "My
general health is better than it has been for
years, and mv' exhausted nervous system
has been completely built np. I cannot too
highly recommend the physicians of the
Electropathic Institute for "their skill and
science, their perfect and varied electric
appliances and their intelligent use of them,
as shown in my desperate case."
This young man is, as has been said, very
favorably known in the village of Port
Perry, and his rapid and complete recovery
from an apparently incurable disease of
years standing has given great surprise as
well as much pleasure to his numerous
friends there.
A GREAT SINGER'S AUNT.
Remarkable Becovery of an Aged Relative
of the Great Evangelist, Ira Sankey, De
scribed by Herself.
"I suffered constant and unremitting pains
for years. Consulted and was treated by
different doctors, in vain. Tried the elec
trical treatment as administered by the
physicians of the Electropathic Institute,
607 Penn avenue, and, as a result, my trouble
has dist ppeared," said Mrs. M. A" Sankey,
annt of the great evangelist, Ira Sankey, re
siding at 115 Lacock street, Allegheny.
Jfri. M. A. Sankey, 115 Lacock ilrect, AUegJieny.
"My throat was the part most affected. I
suffered terrible pains, both sharp and dull.
It felt as though a band of iron was tightly
bound around It. I could scarcely speak
without the effort causing me pain. To
swallow caused me great utferlng, and the
food 1 attempted to swallow would nearly
choke me. Tho act of chewing my food was
attended with almost, unbearable pain.
"I had some of the best ph sician in the
two cities attending me, yet they all were In
doubt as to my true ailment. Thev did
everything in their power yet I steadily
grew worse nnd worse. Together with the
above trouble, I suffered greatly from neu
ralgic pains, supplemented by nervous pros
tration, until I became so bad that I shared
tho belief of my friends that I wonld never
regain my health.
"I at last decided to seek the assistance of
the nhvsicians of the Electiopathlc Institute
at 507 Penn avenue, to alleviate, if possible,
my sufferings.
"Their flrflt trpAtnienr. tens fnllnworl "hiS-
" marked improvement, and In a short time
iiiv jjuius, iivuca uiiu uiiiueuiauisappeareaas
if by magic. Although 83 years old, I am en
joying as good health to-day as ever before
In my life."
