10 THE PITTSBURG DISPATCH, SATURDAY. DECEMBER 19. 189L TIIERELIGIOUS WORLD. An Oberlin Preacher's Views as to Devils Which Possess Pulpits. SIGNS OP CHRISTMAS COMING. flenty ofThem in the Topics to Be Dis cussed in Our Churches. GLEANINGS PROM CHURCH FIELDS Oberlin is nothing if not radical. In the ante-bellum times preachers and teachers of that celebrated Ohio town were conspicuous for their onslaughts on slavery. Since the slavery question lias been decided, Oberlin ceases not to war against the sins and follies of the times. The occupant of the Oberlin Congregational pulpit, Rev. J. Brand, a pulpit once occupied by President Finney, in a paper presented to the International Council, held in London last summer, had this to say of preachers' devils. "Most of us are possessed of about four devils. First there is deaf devil, who pre vents us from hearing the cry of God's poor. That must be cat out so that we may hear ilic voice, not simply of men's desires and ambitions, but the voiceless cry of their spiritual needs. Second, there is the dumb, which keeps us silent and acquiescent when selfish culture and cut-throat competition need a manly rebuke. That must be cast out that our tonsue may be unloosed to vindicate God. Third, there is the devil of self-seeking. He must be cat out. "We must stop the sin of working for onr own jrlory. "We must rediscover the lost art of self-denial. "Ve mut illustrate the spirit of the crucifixion. Lastly there is the rationalistic devil of unbelief: who denies the gift of the Holy Ghost. He must be cast out. that we may believe in that fundamental part of the gospel the gift of power. These demons, like the one of old, co not out save with fasting and prayer."

"The Untrust worthy Servant;" evening, "Two Strange Fishing Experiences;'" voung people's meet ing, "Lovest Thou Me?"- Only one, Guffey, Jennings & Co.'s No. 3 Matthews, of the many wells drilling in the McDonald-"McCurdy field reached the fifth sand yesterday. There was a decrease of 1,500 barrels in the estimated production of the territory for the 24 hours ending yester day morning. It would have been still more but for the fact that some of the old wells were agitated, and their output increased, thereby ofisetting the decline. The producers whose wells are falling off rapidly, or who have light wells near big oncSj are doing everything possible to make thei r property productive. There is a great deal more shooting done than appears on tho surface. A glycerine wagon is seldom seen on tho streets or roads in daylight. Scarcely a night goes by, however, that they are not out in force, and the shooters busy placing the powerful compound in tho dead or dying wells. The truth is that producers aro ashamed or afraid to let their neighbors know of the subtle methods tbev are takinsr to net the oil. Just why it is so is hard to determine, but it isa fact, nevertheless. 3IIdnight shoot ing Is more common now than it was in the exciting days of "moonlighting." AA'hen n man is compelled to put in a sliot to revive an old well he seems loath to admit it to his neighbors, but the great amount of such work is done in wells which have been practically dead from the start. The sands, both the Gordon and fifth, lmvo been pi oven to be very much like the ciicns leop ard, and when a good well is brought In close to a well which has been small from the start, the owner of the latter almost always puts tn a heavy shot in the hope, of breaking up the sur rounding rock snVnciently to open bis well into the pool from which the adjoining well is drawing its oil. With all of the shooting that has been done, however, the production has not been inci cased bv this means, as has oeen ine.case in lorraer nelds. Sixty Barrels an Hour. Guffey,, Jennings & Company's No 5 Slat thews was drilled into the fifth sand late last evening, and started off at 60 barrels an hour. It is east of north from their No. 1 about 1,200 feet, and is east 400 ieet of a tangent between tho No. 1 3Iatthcws and No. 1 Matthews heirs. Besides this there was one Gordon well completed. It is Guckert & Steele's No. 10 on tho Mevey farm, located in the extreme south west corner of that property, near the Laurel Hill station. It reached tho Gordon late Thursday night and in tho ensuing 12 hours put 350 barrels into the tanks. AVhether It will maintain this gait Is a question. Thompson, Haymaker, Liggett & Co.'s No. 2 on the Tourney lot northeast of 3IcDon:ild was flowing at the rate of 225 barrels a day from the Gordon sand yesterday. The Royal Gns Company's No. 1 on the Sauters lour ucres, located 300 feet southwest from tho Touruey No. 2, is down 1.S30 feet. Schrefller & Russell's well on the Moorhead lot in the borough was one bit in tho Gor don yesterday morning and they expected to bo ready to drill in last evening. Ho thian & Hue's well on the Covlack lot north of the Laurel Hill mines. Is almost through tho Gordon and will not make more than a 10 or 12-barrel well in that sand.

Thirty play ers have enrolled themselves as members of the "View club, and among thoso wo havo some very prominent players Mr. Smith, one of the city Councilmen, William Harri son, Jesse Johnstone and son, Mr. AVisc man and others. They have rented a hall in the rear or Gumbert's shoe store, 230 Fed eral street. This evening will be devoted to the election of officers and the formation of by-laws to govern the new club. The mem bership fee is $1, with the additional month ly dues, the amount not yet determined upon. We wish the new club every success, and also trust it may be the birthplace of many good players, and we hope that tbo projectors may give their early attention to the training of the members with a view of team matches: and wo hope thevmay soon issuo a challenge to Pittsburg to test tho strength of the two cities. To the Checker Editor of The Dispatch: I wish to state through your department mat uunng my stay oi tnree years m Chi cago I was in the most intimate and friendly terms with all the members of the Chess and Checker Club; never had a disagree ment or a harsh word with any of the mem bers, but one exception. I have always testified to this fact in every place I have been, and my praise of the members, both as players and gentlemen, has never been questioned. J axes P. Keed. Pittsburg, December 17. The above letter has been forced from 3Ir. Reed because of what was published in The Dispatch a few weeks ago. What wo pub lished was not got through tho medium of Mr. Eced. We never heard Mr. Keed speak of Chicago or Its people other than he states in his letter above, but we have not pub- usueu unytuing uui wnat is ine general reel ing of the players In this community. Tho article in the American Checker Review, vol. Hi., No. 12. seems to us a nice way of parting in friendship. As men, our whole nature rises np against sueh insinuations as that article speaks of. We have had little in sympathy with Chicago since the Wyllle, Duntap and Reed muddle, and as far as we are concerned we still feel that though we cannot sympathize much with Reed In his late connection with the Wyllle forfeit, yet we believe that though he shoulders all re sponsibility he has only been the scapegoat for another's greed, and being in that other's powr he has, like others, to do as he is told.
