Dan Rico, the shonmnn, arrived In the

proposition to Thomas Walsh, in charge of

catch the train.
Rice jumped on board, and without mote
ado the locomotive was put to full speed in
pursuit or th Cleveland train. There were
no cava attached, and the train was over
taken at Lewis Centre, sixtoen miles from
Columbus, in just sixteen minutes ftom the

Kenyan' 'nv Double Ac-Muff
Oil l'unip for I'ltmpiHg Oil or

Kenyon's New Double Acting Oil Pump
is uckuowledged to be the best pump now
in use. One of its leading f-aturea is that
it not only produces u cont a ioui How nt
oil or other fluid, but that it creates and
jitstalDS a constant a d powerful suction,
by means ot which the seams or veinsol the
well are in a great measure cleared of para
hue und other obstructions, ai d the oil In
tbe veins is drawn towards tbe well. It
has been ascerUiued by acuial test that the
use of this pump causes a gradually increas
ing Cow ol oil. It Is well known by oil
operutoie that thi improvement ia of great
value, and one that has been loug sought
for. The all 'st mechanics of our country
have for years been at work trying lo Uud
out some new " id untried plan to proloog
tbe life time of an oil well; uod uothing yet
lo our knowli'.li, bus been brougot before
the pot lie that in any way equals tbe power
ot the Kenyon Pump, experience having
taught thai it is the long continued suo
lion that bas the power to keep up and In
crease the production of oil wells. Oil

Superintendent or tbe Columbia Farm, fur
information in regard to tbe prauticui work
