"Washington, Oat. .". "What becomes
oFcll'thc pennies? It seems to be with
them very much a3 it is with pins nobody
3-rows where nnd ho'v they disappear. Yet
they vanish in some fatiiion. Last year the
rfci'ladeiphia Mint coined 91,000,000 pen
nies. It would take a good-sized building
Jo hold so many, but they did not begin to
supply the never-satisfied demand for more.
.nt now the establishment refer -ed to is
hard at work manufacturing further sup
3'ies, and fo it will continue.
Bronze cents are subject to more accidents
shau happen to any other United States
coins. It is -aid that a penny changes
hand in trade ten times for onee that a
dime parses from one pocket to another,
lieins of small value, these little pieces are
not taken much care of. There aie a thou
sand ways in which they r-'t out of cireula
iiun.and thus the ltiintiug of them has to
l-e kept u; continually. The Metal blanKs
ironi which they are made by the simple
t -oees of stamping arc turned out for
l'i'cle Sam by contract by a factory in Con
necticut at ihe rate of a thousand for 51.
As they come from the machines, fresh and
uew, thev look like glittering gold.
HISTORY OF Till: OLD HA LP CENTS.
One may cct a notion of the number of
pennies lost from the history of the old half
nis. Of thec, 500,000 were i-ued a few
tears ago. "Where arc they now? A few
are in the cabinets of coin collectors. 2s one
ImYc lcen retnrned to the mint for rccoin
a;e or are held by the Treasury. Xobody
-ecs them in circulation. All of them
xcept some hundreds saved out by curio
linnters have absolutely disappeared. Of
the old copper pennies, 110,000,000 still re
isain unaccounted for, tave that once in a
while one sees r. pecimen. There arc mora
than :,000,000 broiizc 2-cent pieces some
where oat of 4,500,000 of them that the
t'orernracnt ieMicd. Of nickel 3-cent
pieces, nearly 2,000,000 arc yet outstanding,
although it is s-cldoni that one of them is
corns acro.
In the ireasury here one day this week
the question came up as to the wcirfit of a
dollar biJL Scales of perfect accuracy were
brought into requisition, and the surprising
discovery was made that27 $1 notes weighed
exactly as much as a S20 gold piece. The
latter just balances 010 grains. However,
the bills weighed were perfectly crisp and
iii-w. Trial made with soiled bills, such as
-inie in every day for redemption, showed
tlsat t!7 of them weighed considerably more
han the 5"0 coin. Every paper dollar on
'is. way through the world continually accu
mulates dirt, so that alter a year of use it is
perceptibly heavier.
THE -WEIGHT Or tinEENBACKS.
The actual weicht of paper money which
he Treasury sends by express every ye r
to all parts of the country is in the'aggrc
jrate enormous. Since Julv 1 it "has
lipntched 38,009,000, nearly all of it
in mdjII notes, to the South and "West for
the purpose of moving the crops. The
1ank Iced this cash to the farmers on what
ever iber grow, and thus the products of
the iirld are harvested and shipped.
Speaking of the redemption of paper
imniey, a very novel and interesting appli
.ation was made the other day to the
.1-vision of the Treasury which has this
business in hand. Tne story, as it came
out. was as follows:
An ingenious youth employed to sweep
out a Sctr York bank devoted attention
lr a considerable period to gathering up the
ninilis from the tilK in the shape of cor
ners and other bits of notes such as get torn
1T and fall about in anv place where dol
lars arc counted. In the course of time he
't together a o.uaulity of scraps of the
Mirt sumcicnt to fill a pint measure, and he
Msnt then' on to the Redemption Bureau
at "Washington in a Inn, with the explana
tion tliat they had been eaten by mice. He
stated the amount at Si'00, and asked for
iot bills in exchange. His little game
was betrayed on the face of it by the fact
that the pieces forwarded represented, if
anylhinu. not lc-s than $1,000. The usual
aoidivit wasdemauded from him, swearing
to his loss; but he had not thought of that
requirement and lacked the nerve to give
it. Icrfcilv for himself.
l"jidoubtcdly the redemption division
! get romctimes swindled, though not
-3ten. Taj women experts employed to
samine the ninnev sent in are wonderfully
frkiliral.
II.VMIT.INC rilARUKD JlOSEl".
It is marvelous how deftly they will poke
over a few charred fragments of notes and
set an accurate valuation upon them. The
other day a poor woman in Ohio sent a wee
CdraerofafiiO bill, with a pitiful storv
alxral her baby's having burnt it. Hardly
more was left than a fragment bie enowrh to
iAow the figures of the denomination, but
vJivv.iU get the money back. Alice arc
great destrovcrs of paper currcncy,andsome
of the most hopeless specimens tliatcome in
liavc been chewed up for beds by those lit
tle rodents. Sometimes a pill box full of
indistinguishable ashes will arrive, accom
panied by a certificate stating the amount
represented. Of course, such a case is hope
ls. It is usually a kitchen-stove catas
trophe. Jvitr hen stoves burn up more cash every
vear than is lost in any other oneway. Peo
ple will confide their hoards to tfie-n for

backs go up in smoke. The greatest sum
rcrconsumeu dv lire in tins countrv was
Pl.000,000. That amount went up in smoke
at the Sub-Treasury, but the Government
was able to replace it at the cost of paper
and printing. It has been estimated that 1
lier cent of all the paper money issued is
lost or destroyed. Of the old fractional cur
rency it is reckoned that 58,000,000 has been
totally lost.
A few davs ago an old colored man from
across the Potomac, iu Virginia, brought to
the Treasury an e-straordinary looking lump
? metal. He said that it was a lot of silver
i'il!a, halves and quarters, which he had
jiutin a tin can some years back and bidden
n the stone .rail of a barn by removing a
Etor.c and plastering up the orifice.
TRUATIXC; COINS WITII ACIBS.
"When reoentlv he took out the box, he
found that trickling water had rusted it :il
nnst away, covering the coins with oxide of
ron and sticking them together in a mass.
Assistant Treasurer "Whelpley had the lump
put into pcid and treated with lye aud saw
Iust, m that he silver pieces came out as
pretty and bright as when they were
ni'ited, and the old man carried them ar.av
tlelightcd.
One day this week a ?j note on the Xa
tivnal Tiank of Khode Island at Xcwport
came in for redemption. On the face it
looked (juite new, but the back was washed
perfectly clean, so mat nut a mark was left
on it. The joke of it is that tiie Uureuu of
ICngraving adopted the brown back for such
dlls cu the ground that it could not be
washed ofi; as the green back can be. It was
intended i-i thi-. way to jircvcnt counterfeit-t-rs
from procuring Treasury paper bv ren
dering notes of small denominations "blank
with acids aud printing big ones on them.
This is the first time that confidence in the
indelibility of the brown ink has been dis
turbed. Kvcu the seal on the front, which
is done in tiie same ink, has cntirelv disap
peared in the bill dc-cribed. Whether the
thing was done lor .-. jest or by accident the
authorities do not pretend to say.
The u"w desians soon to be niade for the
ontirc scries of silver certificates, except the
mis for 2 already completed, will furnish a
big job to the Bureau of Ungraving. Onjy
the backs are to be changed, but the making
of a single one of these money plates, with
all the lettering and geometric lathe work
involved, is a formidable task. It is not on
this account that Chief Engraver Casilear
thinks the proposed alterations unwise.
TCEQUEXT CHANGES TODESIKABI.E.
His opinion is that it is a mistake to
change the appearance of currency more
often than is absolutely necessary. The
people do not readily accept paper cash that
has a strange look.
To illustrate this, 3Ir. Casilear yesterday
told how he happened to be in Xew York at
one time during the war looking out for a
gang of counterfeiters. To avoid making
his presence in the citv conspicuous he put
up at a second-rate hotel, where he was un
known. For some purpose he handed to
the clerk at the desk a brand-ucw 50-ccnt
note. It was an issue just out, with Gen.
Spinner's portrait on it, the likeness having
been "ubstituted for a picture of Justice
with her scales, which the forgers had imi
tated very successfully.
The clerk looked at 'the note with evident
suspicion, and handed it back.
"I never saw anything like that before,"
he said.
"It is good, I assure you," replied 3Ir.
Casilear.
"I don't believe it," s-aid the clerk.
"Very well," rejoined Mr. Casilear. "It
doesn't matter, though, I know it is good,
because 1 made it myself."
The clerk smiled sardonically.
"That is just what occurred to me," he
said. "Therefore I refused to accept it. "
Sir. Casilear felt that the joke was on
himself, so he treated himself to a bottle of
soda water at the bar and left for "Waskiag-
ton that evening.

FOUR SMALL WELLS.
The Production, However, Still Keeps
If ear the Old Point
IT IS HELD UP BY KEW GUSHEES.
Wildcat Venture Ahead of McDonald Being
Closely Watched.
NEW TK0CESS FOR REFINING LIMA
The great and only McDonald oil field is
still keeping up its record as far as produc
tion is concerned. Theie was a noticcablo
decline in several of the smaller wells, but
the Hcrron Is o. 4 of GufTey, Jennings, Mur
phy & Co., whieh came in yesterday after
noon at the rate of fiOO barrels an
hour, according to the statement of one
of the owners, will more than offset any
general decrease throughout tho field.
Early in the morning, as the news from the
wells began to circulate, the bulls held
every point of vantage, and bellowed with
delight as they looked into the future and
saw the McDonald wells all pumping and
the market on the jump toward the SI mark.
All day the healthy bulls pawed
the earth. They wanted to hear of every
wcll being light. They had no time for
gushers. For many lone days they have
been forced to sulk in silence, but yester
day the reports seemed to justify them in
holding a little celebration. Greenlee &
Eorst's Xo. 2 on the Mevey farm was
drilled through the tand and " pronounced
almost dry. That is, dry for the
McDonald field, but good for probably
100 or 150 barrels a day. The bulls roared
in chorus. Xot many hours elapsed before
Guckert t Steele's Xo. 2 Mevey was re
ported to be drilling in the slate below the
sand, and not showing for over 200 barrels
from the Gordon and fifth sands combined.
Then the whole herd tossed their heads and
bellowed forth a song of gladness.
And Still rhey Come.
The rays from the noonday sun had scarcely
emmenced to cast shadows toward the east
when GufTey, Murphy and the Oakdale OU
Company's Xo. 2, on the Sturgeon heirs'
propertjj, was said to be drilling at nine or
ten feet in the sand without giving evidence
of being a producer that could be rated at
so man' barrels per hour. The bulls again
got their work in, and made the entire
eountryside echo with their noisy demon
strations. "I am glad of it;" "I hope they
will all be like it;" "The sooner they
commence to come like this the bet
ter for all of us;" and kindred exclama
tions were to be heard everywhere. It was
soon after the last report when word came
from southwest McCurdy to the effect that
Kennedy, Fitzgibbons, Gardiner & Co. 'sXo.
2. on the Mcrtz farm, was almost through
the fifth sand, and as the informant termed
it, "no good." More bellows and roars
from the bullish clement followed this an
nouncement, and to tell the truth it was
a decidedly blue Monday for the field.
Meanwhile the bears, who had been saying
nothing but sucking their paws, listened
quietly to the jollification of the bulls and
waited for reports favorable to themselves.
They were not disappointed. Late in the
afternoon the Herron Xo. 4, as stated above,
broke the crust of the sand and started
off at nearly 500 barrels an hour.
This well is located about 1,500
feet southwest of the big Mathews well,
back of Xoblcstown. and probably the same
distance northeast from tho Baldwin well,
which has been producing thousands of
barrels a day for mauv weeks.
Location of the Small AVells.
Xow to return to the small wells again.
Greenlee & Forst's Xo. 2 Mevey is located
about 400 feet east of their great Xo. lMevey,
and the same distance southwest of their Xo.
4 Mevey which came in Saturday at the
rate of 450 an hour. Its proximity to these
mammoth cushers, and also to GufTey,
Murphy & Galey's Xo. 3 Elliott, and tfie
fact that it is so light, occasions much sur
prise. There were oulv 15 or 1G feet of
fifth sand found, which leads to the belief
that this stratum may be narrowing rapidly
to the east from the big Xo. 1.
Guckert & Steele's No. 2 Mevey,
also small, is located probably 1,000
feet west of Greenlee & Forst's Xo. 1, and
on a line from the latter to Hays & Gart
land's Xo. 2 on tiie Miller farm whieh is
now only making 50 barrels a day. Green
lee & Forst's ""Xa 2, Mevey, Guekort &
Steele's Xo 2 ou the same farm, and GufTey,
Murphy & Galey's Xo. 2 on the Elliott, all
small, "are on three sides of the great
Mevey gusher. Guckert & Steele
on the west, GufTey & Co.'s Elliott
Xo. 2 on the north; and Greenlee
and Forst's Xo. 2 on the east. The only
outlet from this immense reservoir must
be through the narrow streak to the north
cast on which the Elliott Xo. ."; the Xos.
3 and 4, Mevey: the Sam Sturgeon, and the
Morgan Xo. l'are located. These are each
doing from 150 to 350 barrels an hour.
The ratal umber Two.
It is a remarkable coincidence that all of
the failures of yesterday were each known
as "Xo. 2," being the second wells iu
each case to bp located on the respective
leases. "Xo. 2" seems to be an unlucky
designation in this field as GufTey, Murphy
A; Uaiey s iSo. 2 Elliott was light; also the
Forest Oil Company's Xo. 2 Herron; and
the Devonian Oil Company had to plug its
Xo. 2 J. H. Uobb, and is again
fishing in the second hole for a
partial string of eight-inch casing.
Greenlee & Forst expect to shoot their Xo.
2 to-diy or to-morrow. There was a report
in circulation last night that their Xo. 1
had suddenly stopped flowing, but tho
rumor could not be verified. GufTey, Mur
phy and the Oakdale Oil Company agitated
their Xo. 1 on the Morgan farm yesterday,
when it suddenly jumped in production
from 125 to 250 barrels an hour. Thomp
son, Liggett & Co.'s well on the Tourney
property, located 180 feet southwest of Hays
& Gartl'and's Xo. 5, w as only 30 feet above
the fifth sand last night. The Peoples Gas
Company's Xo. 2, on the McDonald heirs'
farm, was in the Gordon.
Big in tho Gordon Sand.
X. P. Black's Xo. 1, on the J. B. Santers
property, tapped the Gordon yesterday
afternoon and was making 10 barrels an
hour last evening. It was shut down until
sufficient tankage could be built to take
care of the oil. His well on the Chartier
lot will get the Gordon sand about to-morrow
afternoon. Ewing, Dorringer & Co's
Xo. l,on the Jamison lot.is down 1,450 feet.
Their Xo. 2, on the Marten property, is
diilling at 1,100 feet, and they have started
to .spud in their new well on the Smith lot.
The "Wallace Oil Company's well on the
lumber yard lot back of the railroad
station is about through flic Gordon sand.
Hoffman, Hoyt & Co.'s well, on the George
lot, one location south of the lumber yard,
is also in the bottom of the Gordon. Both
ot these aro big Gordon sand wells, and it
w ill be slow drilling in the fifth sand. The
Devonian Oil Company's Xo. 2,on the Elliott
farm, is scheduled to reach the fifth sand
some time the last of this week, and the
Xo. 4 Fayall of the same company is drill
ing at 1,800 feet, and they are spudding in
their Xo. 3 J. H. Eobb. AV. P. Bend
is down 200 feet in his Xo. 2; and he has
commenced spudding at his Xos. 3 and 4.
Drilling in Tho Third Sand.
Havs & Gartland's Xo. 7, Miller, is drill
ing in the bottom of the Gordon; and
their Xo. 8 was due to get the
Gordon last evening. Xo. G Miller is
down 1,000 feet They have a ri"
up for Xo. 9-and are building a rig for Xo!
10. GufTey, Murphy and tho Oakdale Oil
Company's Xo. 1 on the "Wallace farm is
through the Gordon sand. Their Xo, 1 on
the Hopper is drilling in the Gordon and
their Xo. 2 on the Baldwin is down
900 feet Xo. 2, "Wallace, is 1,800 feet
deep; Xo. 3, same farm.1,100 feet, aud Xo. 4
is aboutthe same depth. Guckert & Steele's
Xo. 5 on the Mevey farm is throush the
Gordon sand and will get the fifth ina day
or two. Their Xo. 3 Mevey was drilling in
the bottom of the Gordon sand last night,

It was reported late last night that Guf

its production to 300 barrels an hour.
Greeulce it Forst completed their first
35,000-barrel tank on the Mevey yesterday,
and were running oil into it last night.
Operations at Oakdale.
OAKDALE S. J. Fisher & Co.'.s well on
the slaughter house lot just west of Oak
dale made a 35-barrcl flow from the Gordon
sand yesterday afternoon. Gartland &
Feclcy's well only a short distance from the
slaughter house "well is on top of the
Gordon sand. The well of George Davis &
Co. on the Guy farm just back of Oakdale
was also in the Gordon sand last night. The
Hazelwood Oil Company's well on the
Adams farm is in the 100 foot. Jennings
Bros, have a rig up on a lot 500 feet south
east of the slaughter house well. The
"Woodland Oil Company has a rig up on
the Campbell farm. Pat Gallaghan is just
through the Gordon on his own farm.
The well is making 50 barrels an hour from
this sand. Davis & Co. are commencing to
spud on the McKee lot, located 500 feet
east of the well on the Guy property. Sny
der & Co. are down 500 feet on the lot back
of the Malt House. The developments in
the Gordon sand in the slaughterhouse well
has given a boom to operations in the vicin
ity of Oakdale.
WatclUng a Wildcat.
Venice The "Wheeling Gas Company's
well, on the Patterson farm, just north of
this village, reached the Gordon Fand yes
terday, and is a big gasser lrom the
top ot that rock. The pressure was
so strong that it resisted the force of the
tools and no headway could be made in dril
ling. There are many operators who be
lieve that oil will be found below the gas,
and the well is being closely watched. It
is about three miles south of McDonald.
Kefinin the Lima Oil.
It is claimed that a new and successful
process for refining Lima and Canadian oils
has been discovered by Pittsburg parties.
The cost of desulphurizing and treating is
reported to be the same as in refining Penn
sylvania oil. The process has been thor
oughly tested iu Pittsburg within the last
few days, nnd several still rims were made.
As the inventors are negotiating for the
sale of the process to Canadian parties they
refuse to allow their names to be used.
The following yields were made during the
tests from the Limn crude: "Water white,
150, 48; gravity, 33 and 35 per cent.
Prime white, 1106, 45J; gravity, 20 and 21
per cent. Benzine, GG; gravity, 11 and 12
per cent. Tar, 20J; gravity, 1GJ per cent
Slop, 143J per cent.
Tho Gauges and Production.
The estimated production of the field last

WOMAN'S FIGHT FOE THE BALLOT.
The Contest in Chlcaco Taken Directly to
the Supreme Court.
Chicago, Oct. 2G. The Supreme Court of
Illinois will be asked to take up the peti
tion of the right of women to vote for
school officers at the next election. This
forenoon Byam, "Weinshenk and Hcrschel
prepared a mandamus to force the right of
women to vote, Mrs. Ahrcns appearing as
complainant. In order to facilitate matters
Attorney Boyle, of the Board of Election
Commissioners, on behalf of the members,
waived the right to a hearing in the lower
court, and the papers in the case were taken
away to-day. Andrew Herschel wired the
Supreme Court notifying that body of the
case and the urgent necessity for nn immedi
ate hearing. If the case isnot decided be
fore the day of election the polls will be
the scene of uncomfoi table recontres be
tween the lady voters and the Judges of
Election, and will afterward be productive
of innumerable suits.
The application to the Supreme Court
is in the shape of a petition ior a manda
mus to compel the board to place the
names of women who possess the same
qualifications as men on the registry lists.
