Oil Notes.
The consumption of crude oil now ex
ceeds the production in this country, and
the surplus stock is said to have been re
duced by 5,000,000 barrels last year.
The Grove Oil Co's. No. 4 on the Cowan
farm in Middlesex came in flowing Xmas
morning, and is doing CO bbls.
The Thompson Oil Co. completed their
tenth well the 29th of December, on the
W. B. Thompson farm, and is doing 45
barrel daily. Other wells are already
located on this lease and will soon go to
work.
The Weaver well near North Washing
ton is reported to be doing 100 barrels a
day.
The Russian Oil Field produced thirty
five millions barrells last year. The bulk
of this camo from the Apsheron peninsula
which juts out into the Caspian Sea some
sixty or seventy miles, and on which the
town of Baku, with its refineries is located,
but the oil producing territory is known to
extend the entire length of the Caucasian
Mountains, from the Caspian to the Black
Sea, a distance of 1500 miles and the belt
is supposed to be about ten miles wide.
Oil has been found all along this belt at an
altitude of 9000 feet above sea level and
600 feet below. The wells on the peninsu
la vary from 100 to 825 feet ia depth.
In its review of the oil fields for the past
year the Derrick of Monday says: In But
ler county territory the Brownsdale field
has stood alone as the stellar attraction ex
cept for a little development near North
Washington. The discovery of a third
sand well early in the year on the Camp
bell farm, easf ol the Brownsdale field,
caused something of a flurry, and Butler
operators for a time were jubilant over
what was thought to be the discovery of a
new and prolific third sand pool. Some
went so far as to say thai a new rival for
the old Thorn Creek field was waiting to
be punctured by the drill. Subsequent ex
perimental, tests proved dismal tailures and
the same can be said of all other efforts to
find new pools. In the absence of new
territory the sturdy Butler operator, en
couraged by the advance in the market,
has turned his attention to the old wells
that stood idle through the period ol de
pression,and will make a determined effort
to once more start them to producing
That he should be successful would seem
to be a fitting reward for the patience and
endurance he has displayed.

Square Garden in New York, last week,

THE 0. W. HARDMAN ART CO.,
O. W. Hardman, Manager
The tendency of an occupation of
this nature is to develop in the artist
the most critical and an alaytical
distinction of lights and shades, but
only that native genius which be
longs to the true artist can properly
comprehend the true effects of each
in its exoct relation to the subject
Indeed the practical business photog
rapher can only secure the highest
results from the possession of 'hose
normal qualities which eomprebeurl
the adoption of science to art. These
reflections are the result of a brief
considertion of the .-uperior skill ex
hibited in the w«rk of the O W.

THE PITTSBURG TIMES
The Question of the Hour.
Every Person is interested Now
in making the Dollars,
j "Take care of the pence and the
p iunds will take care of themselves."
is a maxium that is peculiarly appli
cable to these hard times. Waste
fulness at all times is foolish; it is
worse than that now when thousands
are suffering for lack of the necessa
ries of life.
The Pittsburg Times is an object
lesson in proper economy. It pre
sents one of the chief necessities of
life—all the news at the lowest pos
Bible coat. Notwithstanding the fact
that the Pittsburg Times is sold for
only one cent a day, the claim is
made for it that is is the most com
plete newspaper printed in Pittsburg;
that every occurrence of human inter
est in every part of the globe is
promptly reported in its columns;
that it is essentially a paper for the
borne, everything of an objectional
character being excluded;that it is the
only paper in Pittsburg whase market
reports are reliable and revised every
day in the week; that it is the only
Pittsburg newspaper which prints
daily a carefully prepared department
tor the ladies and once a week a re
port, prepared by experts, of special
interest to agricultural readers; and
finally, it is the only Pittsburg news
paper which prints daily the highest
class of fiction.
Iu addition to all this, The Times
offers to all its readers at a nominal
cost the opportunity of securing one
ot the highest class magazines print
ed in the country, and to the ladies
their choice during the year 1894, of
twelve of tfe most approved paper
patterns, with privilege of selecting
from a list of 50,000. Send for a
sample copy of The Times, which
will be mailed you free and see how
these promises are fulfilled. If there
is no agent for The Times in your
locality a profitable business can be
established by writing for the agency.

RUPTURE
1 Cannot always be cured, but a
' properly fitting Truss will do
l more toward curing you than any
; thing else. A small rupture is
more dangerous than a la ge one j
but is more readily held in place.
Quite a number of persons who
have been fitted by us have been
entirely cured, but this is not al
ways the case. The sooner we
have them visit us after finding
they are ruptured the more hope
of a complete cure. We make a
specialty of Trusses for both
ladies and gentlemen, and give di
rections for private measurement
for the former. AH cases consid
ered strictly private. Buying
Trusses by mail from some person
who says he can cure you is on a
paralell with the number of cures
there are for consumption. If you
have had trouble in being fitted
elosewhere let us try what we can
do lor you.
