We made uieutiou a lew weeks ago of tl e
fact tliat a number or old wells wero about
to bo cleaned ont and Ftarted up on Ida old
JJ.Miiii.ighc.fr larm, la BeonehofTBun. We
have learned a few additional fac s wliicU
may be of iuterest to our reudcrs. The
company Is known as the International Oc
tave Association ol New York, and is com
posed of a number of wealthy gentlemen
residing n that city and elsewhere, uud
w bo hove been largely interested in petro
leum developments in Hie early days of thi.
Oil Unimtsa. It Is the intention of the com
pany to clean out tbe old boles, roam tht in
down, put in large Casing to shut off tbe
water which has always beet a pteat Bouice
of trouble in that territory, and then give
tbem a thorough test. They have ouo rig
up already a id will commence the work ol
drilling ,oa Motiduy. Tht first well to be
cleaned out is located ou one o I tho leases
of ihe old IJenninghoir Petroleum Compauy,
on the fl its about an equal disiaoco fioiu
tie once famous spoolers, tha Philadelphia,
l'hil. Sheridan and Gotly wells. It is uleu
the iptenlion of the company to plug up a
large number ol tho old holes for the pur
pore of shutting; oiTthe water. The work is
under tbe stiperinleudoucii of Mr. Iiebert
a practical oil operator.
We look for the producliou of a good deal
of oil yet In that vicinity.

Skptkmiikii. August bows bimsolf out o,

place to September, a serene and pleasml
Inlluw who purtakes of the geniality ol

ules in dullizbtlul combination the lights
and shades of tho voar, cooling the Inats of

evenings and mornings. Taere is an co.
joyment of sky and breez , lor the bracing

prufu.-iug ol the season, or tho probabilities
of tbe f ill trade, fur tbe begloning of the

It requires all sorts ol peopio to make up
a world, consequently wu are not surprised
lo see so many people who think they are
luiaillng their mission and working out
their destiny by niindlDg other folks busi
Oess. Still tbey are greatly at fault. VV'tre
they lo stop uud consider lor a moment
when tbey are making themselves ever
u.Iicious, and cauctrned about their neign
burs alTilrs. Is this my business? acd were
I in his place and he in mine, wbt would
I think? Surely then wauld they roali.j
the full sense ol the term mind your own
business. It a young lady visits your ueigb
bur next dour and walks up street with him,
don't run right off leaving your sewing ami
baby crying to tell another neibtn.r the
same proclivitios as yourself that -Mr. go
and Si and that strange broz faced lady
have just returned from a walk, and It's not
the first time oilher, and pity is expressed
tor tbe wife who can't help but notice it.
Condemnation is as greatly heaped upon tbe
two guilty, Innocent parties. The young
lady in question or his sister. Tuns it is
that scandal and rumor ar ses end grows.
Wherefore if she bad quietly went ou with
an eyo to bur ofTaira, sho would not have
undergone the humiliation of starting a
false rumor, and at the same lime attended
lo her own ulfiirs murder will out is a trite
old adage. Mind your own business and
s'jandal will show itself soon enough it it
have any foundation without any hnlp from
