WORK FOR THE ALUMNI. 41
Chancellor Holland Appeals to the Fast
Graduates of the Western "University A
Reorganization Effected and New Of
fleers Elected.
The Alumni of the Western University
held a meeting in the parlors of the Y. M.
C. A. building yesterday afternoon for the
purpose of reorganizing and electing officers
to serve until the annual meeting in June.
The meeting was called to order with J. B.
"Whitman in the chair, who shortly re
signed in favor of Mr. J. C. Osborne.
Chancellor Holland made the opening ad
dress, in which he stated that the alumni of
the University did not take proper interest
in the welfare of the University. He said :
"Last night I attended the alumni banquet
of the Princeton University, and there saw
a body ot 75 or 100 young men, all eager to
promote the welfare of their alma mater.
It is the alumni of the college that keeps it
great. "While others are working we have
been doing nothing. If tho graduates of
the "Western University would put their
shoulders together one cannot do every
thing we could raise the $500,000 needed
by the University easily I know of no
finer class of men than the graduates of the
"Western University. There should be a
memorial built to the late Chancellor Goff
'and several memorial windows placed in the
chanel. We must reorganize, elect officers
and do something toward making our college
known."
Here, upon a motion, the classes of '89,
'90 and '91 were admitted as members of the
alumni.
C. "W. Scovel made the motion that the
Chair appoint a committee of three to select
officers to serve until the annual meeting in
June. Messrs. "Whitman, Scully and "Wil
son were appointed a committee. They
nominated the following officers who were
unanimously elected: President, Hon. Jas.
XT T?af4. rf..t "Tina Tf noi Hti f l?aw T TVf
H. Beed; First Vice President, Rev. J. M.
Duff; Second Vice President, B. C. Mc
Cormack; Treasurer, Benjamin Thaw; Cor
responding Secretary, Reid T. Stewart; Be
cording Secretary, C. "W. Scovel; Executive
Committee, John D. Scott, Fred "W. Mc
Kee, G. W. Fundenberg, F. C. Osborne and
George A. Gilfillan.
C. w. Scovel made a motion that the
Chair appoint a committee of three to at
tend to the publishing, of an alumni cata
logue. The Chair deferred appointing this
committee and the meeting adjourned.
THE BEST CURE I OR DRUNKENNESS.
Silver Ash Bemedies Sure, Safe and Scien
tific. That there are now three or four well
established cures for alcoholism and the
morphine habit Is Unquestioned, nnd the
most popular ode In the future will naturally
be that one which docs the work most
effectually, together with tho least suffer
ing and Injury to the patient After the
most careful observation, and by comparing
notes with hundreds of people who have
taken treatment and been cured by one or
another of the various methods now recog
nized, we are thoroughly convinced that the
Silver Ash Bemedies as administered at the
institutes at Greensburg, Fa., and Alliance,
O., are the best, and give the most satis
factory results. They were originated by
Dr. O. J. Oronendyke, of New Castle, Ind.,
and are prepared and administered accord
ing to scientific principles, hence the most
desirable results are obtained and the treat
ment is absolutely safe.
Injurious drugs are not used at haphaz
zard, and no remedies aro administered in
anything like poisonous doses, honco tho
Silver Ash treatment causes no lo of ap
petite for food, no derangement of the bow
els, no impairment of the evesight, no diz
ziness, no heart failuro nnd no mental de
rangement such as aro reported to follow
other popular methods of treatment On the
other hand, every case treated eitherfor alco
holism or the morphine habit has speedily
found the relief sought, and not only have
the patients been cured of the diseases in
duced by these poisons, but their nervous
systems have been restored to their normal
condition, and the physical man has been
built up and benefited in every wav. It re
quires a course of treatment covering three
weeks, in some cases four, to effect a cure.
The object of the treatment is to de
stroy the appetite for drink, drive out
the alcohol and build up the system and
fortify the man against the enemy which
has been working his destruction. The
hundreds of cures effected border so closely
upon the miraculous that it is not surprising
that the mass of people, and physicians
even, are somewhat skeptical. It is simply
marvelous to see men come into the office of
the institute who have been drinking for
years, and who are physical wrecks, and
who are possibly under the influence of
liquor when they begin treatment, and then
within a few hours are so revolutionized
under the magic influence of Silver Ash
that thev have not only lost their appetite
for drink but actually abhor it. But such
wonderful scenes can "be witnessed daily at
the Silver Ash Institutes at Alliance, O., or
Greensburg, Pa. "Ve could fill a volume
with the voluntary and enthusiastic testi
mony of men who "have gone to these Insti
tutes as "the court of last resort," and have
there found a joyful freedom from the
tyrannical appetite for strong drink. This
result is accomplished by the Silver Ash
remedies without putting the patient under
special restraint. There arc no locks and
bars and padded cells, bnt every patient is
put upon his honor, treated as a man and
given perfect liberty to go and come at his
own free will, the onlv reauirement beintr
that he be prompt at the'ofhee at the hours
designated for treatment and also observe
the rules and sanitary regulations.
No man or woman need longer remain in
bondage to the liquor or morphine habits for
the Silver Ash Cure will destroy the appe
tite for intoxicating liquors and give them
liberty. The managers have such absolute
confidence in the efficacy of these remedies
that they guarantee a cure or refund the
monej'. The grand work already accom
plished by the Silver Ash Institutes at Alli
ance, O., and Greensburg, Pa., ought to at
tract the attention and enlist the sympathy
and co-operation ol every friend of" human
ity. Scores of men have been cured of this
terrible disease, restored to their friends and
families, with renovated systems, clear
brains and steady nerves, ready to take hold
of life's duties with a renewed purpose and
with a brighter outlook than ever before.
Thousands more need the treatment, and the
best friends such men have in the world are
those who induce or help them to secure the
treatment

I LIGHT IN THE FIFTH.
The Jolly Oil Company's Well at
Noblestown Is Not Yet a Gusher.
FOURTH SAND OIL IN THE KELLY.
Three Wells in the Gordon and One Show
ing for a Producer.
DEVELOPMENTS IN BUTLER COUNT!
There were some light Gordon wells
developed in the McDonald field yesterday,
and the fifth sander of the Jolly Oil Com
pany, opposite the railroad station at
Noblestown, was not showing for a gusher
at a late hour last evening.
Some of the big wells declined, and con
sequently the production of the field
dropped from 25,500 to 25,000 barrels. The
stocks in the field declined from 57,000 to
54,000 barrels, and the runs were 29,105.
The Jolly Oil Company's well at Nobles
town was the one which attracted the most
attention. It is practically a test well as
there are no wells in the fifth, south or
directly east of it, while the nearest to the
southwest, north and northeast are over 600
feet away. N
Since J. M. Guffey, Eussell, McMullen &
Co.'s No. 6, on the Wettengel, came in big
there were many who believed that the
Jolly well would be big as it was located
southwest of the "Wettengel and the Bobi
son, Brown & Co.'s venture on the Mc
Murray property.
The bit entered the fifth sand in the Jolly
well early yesterday morning, and soon
afterward it made a flow. It then filled up
to within 25 feet of the top, and when they
were three or four bits in the sand it made
another small flow. The impression seemed
to prevail last evening that it would be a
light well.
Three Wells In tile Gordon.
Greenlee & Forst had three wells in the
Gordon sand last night around Noblestown.
Their No. 1 on the National Coal Com
pany's property got a pay in the Gordon at
7 o'clock Thursday evening, and in the next
18 hours it put nearly 60 barrels into the
tanks. They intend it to drill it on down
to the fifth sand, notwithstanding that it
would probably make a good third sand
producer.
The same parties' No. 1, on the No. 2
Marshall lease, is in the ton of the Gordon,
from which it ma'de a small flow "yesterday
and stood almost full of oil. It was shut
down yesterday while connections were be
ing made. Their No. 2 on the No. 1 Marshall
lease is also In the top of the Gordon sand
and filled up with oil. No. 1 McGrady and
No. 1 Potter, also Greenlee & Forst's, are
expected to get the Gordon sand to-day.
J. M. Guffey, Bussell, McMullen & Co.
are fishing for a bit in their No. 6 on the
"Wettengel farm, and have been unable to
drill it to any depth in the sand. It was
making 30 barrels an hour.
The Forest Oil Company's No. 2, on the
James Walker farm, was in the bottom of
the fourth sand yesterday, and will be in
the fifth to-day.
Tod & Co.'s well, on the Bobbins lot,
tia WTillsiiir lvmra wns in 4Tia nnrrlnn uarA
' yesterday and showing for a small well.
'Due on the Fife Farm To-Day.

File farm, was ready to drill into the fifth
sand last night, but they decided to shut
down until to-day, when i't will be put into
the lower pav. Their No. 2 Fife is fishing
at 1,000 feet for a bit and No. 3 Fife is 1,000
feet deep. They are drilling in the 100-foot
at their No. 1 on the "Walker farm.
In western McCurdy Millison, Fried &
Co. are down 1,700 feet in their No. 2, on
the Henry Shaffer farm, and No. 3 is down
about L000 feet.
Jennings, Guffey & Co. have succeeded in
getting the tools out of their No.-' 3 on the
Herron farm, after fishing for th'e'last three
or four months. It should be -in the fifth
sand early next week. They also got the
tools out of No. 5 Bell, where" they have
been fishing several months.
The Devonian Oil Company lost 800 bar
rels of oil on the Elliott farm yesterday by
the breaking of a tank. Their No 6
Elliott is down about 1,200 feet, and No. 4
J. H. Eobb is 900 feet deep. In southern
McCurdy their No. 2 on the Beal Estate
property is in the 100-foot sand. They in
tended to shoot No. 4 on the Boyce farm
yesterday. Their No. 1 on the Cubbage
farm, three miles south of McDonald, is
down about 300 feet.
Got Oil in the Fourth Sand.
The Grover Cleveland Oil Company's
test well on the Helly tarm, south ot Mc
Donald, which was dry in the Gordon, sand,
found some oil in thy top of the fourth sand
yesterday. At a late hour yesterday they
were not in the fourth far enough to tell
whether it would be a paying well" in that
formation. It is the third well in the
whole McDonald field in which any fourth
sand oil has been .found.
Patterson & Jones' No. 5 on the Shaffer
farm did not get into the fifth sand yester
day, as they were still shut down waiting
fpraset of jars.

WHAT ITJEALLY IS,
The Most Dangerous of Modern Disorders
Clearly Defined Pneumonia and What
Causes It.
There has been a great mistake as to what
pneumonia really is. People, and even some
physicians, have called It a dangerous dis
ease. Pneumonia is always an after effect.
If the system is run down, weakened, debil
itated, if the life Is at a low ebb, the lungs
may fill up and the person die suddenly, and
It is called pneumonia. No man or woman
ever died of pneumonia when the body was
strong, vigorous and healthy. It comes upon
one when weakened by grip, by a severe
cold or overwork and a generally weakened
condition. Such being the case, how can
this dreadful trouble known as pneumonia
be prevented or ward off? Manifestly, by
strengthening and fortifying the body by
having the health and strength so secure
that pneumonia will not attack, or if it
should, can easily be warded off. This can
be done by careful living, careful diet and a
moderate use of a pure stimulant. To gently
assist nature a stimulant is required, some
thing that adds to the life and vigor. Noth
ing lor this purpose can equal pure whiskey,
and it should be borne in mind that the only
pure and medicinal whiskey which has re
ceived the unqualified indorsement of phy
sicians and scientists is Duffy's Pure Malt.
It is no ordinary whiskey, but possesses
properties known to no other article. It
will effectually word off pneumonia and has
saved the lives of thousands or people. It
should bo romembered, however, that It is
the only whiskey whioli can accomplish this,
and any druggist or grocer who seeks to con
vince you to the oontrary Is deceiving. In
sist upon having Duffy's Pure Malt. s

MR. GARYEY'S WONDERFULCURE
AND STATEMENT.
After Two Tear of Suffering From Ca
tarrhal Drain, HeadachesBoaring, Deaf
ness, Cough, Chest Fains, Dyspepsia,
He Is Entirely Bestored by In. Cope
land, Ball and Byen.
The mucous membrane is tho peculiar
home of catarrh. The mucous lining of the
nasal passages is most Irequently attacked
first, because that part is most exposed to
atmospheric changes. Having obtained a
lodging here, the disease easily and naturally
follows the mucous.mcmbrane, which leads
to throat, eustachian title, inner ears,
bronchia, lungs, stomach, bowels, setting up
Inflammation in all these parts, and produc
ing a diseased condition which takes differ
ent names according to the part affected, as
bronchitis in the bronchial tube?, dyspepsia
In tho stomach, laryngitis in the larynx, en
teritis in the bowels, etc.
Mr. Jerry Garvey, Sharpsburtj.
"The rapidity with which the catarrhal
process extended to ears, throat, bronohia
and stomach," said Mr. Jerry Garvey, ''was
In my cose not only remarkable, but ex
tremely alarming." Mr. Garvey is a steel
worker in-the large plant of Spang, Chalfant
& Co., and resides at No. 9 Fiftn street,
Sharpsbnrg. His description of his trouble
nnd its cure is extremely interesting.
"In the morning," he continued, "I arose,
weary and fatigued, overcome with lassi
tude, and disinclined to work.
"1 seemed always to have a cold, nose
stopped up, and constant formation of mu
cus, dropping Into my throat and causing
continual hawking and spitting to expel it.
I suffered continually from a dull, heavy
headache over the eyes, and often had a
feeling of tightness or pressure across the
bridge of the nose; also vertigo or dizziness,
until I would nearly fall.
"The insidious disease soon attacked the
eustachian tubes, and extended to my ears,
causing
Boarlqg and Buzzing Noises
and dullness of hearing in my ears. The
mucus escaped to my stomach, poisoning
and disarranging that organ so that I could
not digest the plainest food withont pain,
bloating and flatulence.
"But these were not the most alarming
symptoms of my disease, for It also extended
to my bronchial tubes, and I was greatly
alarmed lest
I Had Consumption.
"I had a constant cough, raising large
quantities of phlegm, weakening and ex
haustlng me greatly and nnflttlng me for
manual labor. The pains in my chest were
very severe, and they cut through to my
back and shoulders very sharply.
"The published evidence of the skill of
Drs. Cpeland, Hall and Byers was so con
vincing that I determined to go to them. I
hesitated considerably before starting, be
cause I had
Tried So Many Patent Medicines
without ever deriving the slightest benefit
that I was badly discouraged, but I was
agreeably disappointed. Their treatment of
my case was intelligent and scientific
from the start, and I was satisfied from the
thoroughness of the examination they gave
me that they understood their business. I
cart only say that I am vastly improved in
every respect. The dropping of mucus is
practically stopped; my headaches have al
most entirely ceased; my stomach is now in
excellent condition, taking all proper food
without pain or Inconvenience.
"My chest pains are gone and my cough is,
entirely well. The
Boaring Noises Hare Stopped,
and the bearing is entirely restored. In
fact, I feel as well as I ever did In my life,
have regained all my wonted strength,
energy and vigor, pursue my labors with
zest and enthusiasm, and I feel that I am
discharging an obligation when I say pub
licly that I owe all this wonderful change in
my condition to the skillful and Intelligent
treatment of Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers.
I heartily and earnestly recommend them."

Curability of This Distressing Affliction
by Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers'
Method of Treatment.
Asthma Is rarely a disease of itself. It
arises from numerous causes diseases of
the kidneys, stomach, heart, nerves, lungs,
blood and nose. If these several causes
were well understood and treated accord
ingly, there would be fewer irascible asth
matics. Catarrh of the nose, moist, dry,
atrophic, hypertrophic, is now regarded the
most frequent cause of asthma reflected
asthma it is called. Tho cause, of course, in
dicates the treatment cure the catarrn, cor
rect the deformity in the nostrils, if there be
any, and tho asthma will disappear.
Mr. Conrad Apel, Ko. 3i3 SorUi avenue, Alle
gheny. "It Is over three years since I contracted
Cold," says Mr. Apel, the well-known plas
terer, wno resiaes at iso. Mi .ortn avenue,
Allegheny. "This seemed at first to amount
to nothing, but finally led to bronchitis, and
after a time to asthma. "This was accom
panied with evening fevers, sharp stitching
pains In the sides and chest and most dls
tresslngsuffocating sensation at nightl often
had to get up at night and go out of doors
for air, and even then failed to get relief.
What little sleep I obtained at night I got
while lying on my stomach this is the only
way I could keep from coughing.
"I doctored and doctered.tried everything
I heard of. I tried, every 'sure cure,' and
made the round of all the doctors, but with
out benefit until I consulted Drs. Copeland.
Hall and Byers. After carefully examining
mv chest they said mv trnnbie was bron
chial asthma, the result of neglected catarrh,
and that they believed they could cure me.
The first week the suffocative feeling disap
peared and has never returned, and all tha
other symptoms have gradually yielded, ex
cepting a slight cough In the morning. I
have no heart trouble, no shortness of
breath, and sleep the whole night through
without being disturbed."
