Quoting from an item in the Rui'im
moan last week concerning the opera'
tions of the Proper Bros. In the "white
oil" field on Little Coon creek the East
Brady Review points out that there are
others. It says: Before this strike the
only wells known to produce "white"
oil were the two wells in Brady's Bend
township, about three miles iroin East
Brady, The first of these two to be
drilled was the (tomerville well, which
was atruck about 30 years ago and which
Is still producing. The second Is not far
dlstaul from the Somerville well. It was
brought In in 1005 by Queen Bros., and Is
looated on the Garner farm.
The terriflo wind storm of Saturday
nlgbt and Sunday was the severest this

and much damage was done throughout
the oil fields in the demolition of derricks
aud (igs. This particular neighborhood
was not seriously effected, the worst
damage being the toppling over and gen
eral scatterment of rail fences in exposed
places. No latalities or destruction of
buildings are reported In this vicinity.
A peculiar and interesting sight was wit
nessed here during the heavy blow Sun
day afternoon. The wind would fairly
scoop the water from the river and many
times it was carried In the form of spray
to the height of fully a hundred feet.
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General
DeOraw has Issued an order to rural free
delivery carriers an to their personal ap
pearance and the appearance of their rigs
while on duty. The order recites that
rural carriers on duty are expected to
present a neat personal appearance and
that the vehloles used by them must be
suited to the service, kept In good order
and presentable and that the animals
ued by carriers in serving their routes
must be fit to work and such as not to
reflect discredit on the service. Post
masters are directed to report laxity In
these matters to the Washington officials
at once. And this must be done on a
salary of less than 1700 a year. 'Twill
strike the average mind, no doubt, that
the f. a, p, g. is expecting a trifle too
much for his money.
Calvin M. Arner, senior member of

situation, we would like to say through
your paper that onr office is open all the
time and the insurance has aud will re
ceive the strictest aud most careful atten
tion, both in renewals and new business
at all times, so that there need be no fear
In tbe least as to any insurance we now
have or shall receive. We hope to be
able in a short time to visit our many
patrons and their places of business. In
tbe meantime we are glad to receive and
attend to any new Insurance. Write or
telephone us at our office. The same will

Judge Harry R. Wilson on Monday
handed down an opinion in tbe case of
the Commonwealth against tbe United
States Fidelity and Guarantee Company.
Tbe defendant company was surety for
tbe late County Commissioners. In the
argument the defendants beld that tbe
bond did not cover the work done by tbe
Commissioners as Poor Directors. That
the County Auditors had no authority to
audit tbe aooounts of tbe Clarion County
Poor District. Tbe Court holds that tbe
work of Poor Directors was only one of
the many duties Imposed upon tbo County
Commissioners, Also that the Auditors
had the right to audit those accounts and
that the defendant company is liable.
Tbe one opinion Is used lo dispose of tbe
three cases against the surety company
on the bond of tbe three Commissioners.

Olive Branch Mission.
I feel sure the many friends in Forest
county of Miss Mary J. Eyerbart, will be
glad to hear something of her work in
Olive Branch Mission, 95 S. Desplaines
St., Chicago. Thirteen years ago I visit
ed the mission for the first time and all
these years I have read with much inter
est the vivid pictures Miss Everhart has
given in her paper. Yet I bad no idea
tbe conditions were as bad as they are.
One would have to come and slay some
time to really know all sides of tbeir
work. But you would not have to stay
long to be fully convinced tbat the only
reason why she and ber faithful band of
workers are there Is for tbe love of Christ
and lost souls. There is not one re
deeming feature to it all until you pass
into tbat dingy old ball and see tbe glad,
happy faces of those workers, and bear
one after another of those men tell what
they have been and see bow clean and
decent they are row. You would say at
once, "Truly, God has done this." They
pick up men who bave been well raised,
college men, doctors, lawyers, etc., In
fact men of nearly every profession, who
have gotten down through drink or mis
fortune of some kind, but when brought
to see that there Is pardon for such as
they, accept It with all tbeir hearts.
Wbon tboy como back again, cleaned up
and their faces bright with new light,
how It makes one's heart rejoioe. Then
the spirit tbat exists in the mission and
home is all tbat tbe most critical person
could ask of any christians. For in
stance, one Sabbath afternoon at the con
verts' meeting, an aged gentleman got up
and pointing to a man a few seats back,
said: "Brother, you are all wrong; you
are trying to fight the devil in your own
strength and if you don't stop it and let
God do that for you, you will fail
Knowing tbe characters some of these
men have been I naturally looked for
trouble. I glanced at tbe leader, Miss
Winn, and as I did so she coolly said
"Amen." After ten or fifteen minutes
bad passed, the man thus addressed arose
and reaching for the other fellow's hand,
said: "Brother, I thank you. I believe
you are right and by tbe grace of God I'll
take your advice." Again, In the Rescue
Home they have a Catholic girl who bas
been there about four months. Said she,
"I have never seen such folks as these.
They are always happy and' they treat
me just as if I were one of tbem. I ex
pected at Thanksgiving and tbe holiday
time to be very lonely, but some way I
forgot to be. When everything goes
wrong Miss Everhart says, 'Praise tbe
Lord.' In fact," said she, "I came near
saying it myself the other day when
something happened in the kitchen."
Delia is a noble girl and no one could be
more kind and respectful than she is for
all the kindnesses that faaye been shown
ber. A friend and I went slumming
with some of the workers one Sabbatb
morning. At the police station lodging
bouses and saloons a bush would settle
over tbe room as soon as they entered,
and those men would listen with much
Interest to tbe prayers, exhortations and
songs. Tnen tbey gave each a tract or
paper and invited tbem to come to the
mission. Many of these men and women
are not only dirty and filthy but are cov
ered with vermin, yet those girls kneel
beside tbem anywhere in tbe ball tbey
can get one to pray and plead with God
to save tbem as If tbey were tbe most re
spectable. I think if the? show any par
tiality it is for the "Old Bum."
When tbe roll is called in heaven and
all those who have been brought from
darkness into His marvelous light answer
to their names, then and only then will
we know the good that has beeu accom
plished through the prayers and self
denial of this noble woman and her band
of consecrated workers. We esteem It a
great privilege to live near enough to
Chicago to occasionally visit this part of
the master's vineyard. While all can not
have this opportuuity, all can help them
to carry on this grand work by your
prayers and means.
Cordially Yours,
Hattik G. Little.
