Judge Taylor, in the circuit court at Parkersburg, West Virginia on an appeal in the case of John Carder v. County Court Judge Jacob*, decided that oil and gas wells a..d personal property, and are therefore not exempt for taxatior. This taxation decision is far-reaching, af fecting oil men all over the United States who are interested in oil property in We.-t Virginia. Collins & Ueasley sold their entire oil interests in the Brownsdale field, a tew days ago, to the Hazelwood Oil Company for $35,000. The property contains six producing and four drilling wells with a daily output of 325 barrels Under the agreement ol the sale the new owners are to complete the (onr drilling wells A 40 barrel well is reported in on the Danbenspeck.in the Washington fie!d Two cil driller.-, IV- >ierick Long ley anu Harvey Jansen, were burned to death by an explosion of gas in a well they were drilling at Cridersville, 0. last Thursday Their bodies wero awfully roasted, and they lived only half an hour.

Gackert as president and his son, William Guckert, for secretary and treasurer. With the exception of the Xorth Wash ington, the Henderson is the most active point in Butler county. The field is con sidered remarkable for its staying qualities. Some of the wells strnck ever five years ago are now making 10 bbls a day. The best well in the pool is producing 80 bbls a day, which belongs to the Forest Oil Co. located on the Joseph Goehricg farm, and is better than 12 months old J. M Morrow, an oil well pumper was killed at McDonald, Tuesday by being caught by a bolt. Late developments in Butler county have been attended with a number of pay ing wells.

The first appearance of a play is usually an anxious occasion for author and actor, and the andience contributed to the suc cessor "A Mothers Secret" surely did liitlfe by its size lo make the moment pro pitious. It was the smallest crowd of the year, and the play really deserved a much better. The play opens at the home of Oswald Bordeau, a wealthy gentleman of middle age, and the various characters are intro duced naturally and easily Mr. Bordeau's daughte .the heiress, loved by Harold Wayne, who returns Irom a teasing trip to the oil country, i e. Renfrew, But ler Co , with papers representing very val uable property. In some way not very clearly shown, Mr. Bordeau is to rtcieve i>Le of these, a mortgage, and this marks the time when Wayne can a.-pire to tne hand of the heiress Josephine and W«y ae h»ve a very pretty love scene. The vil lian comes in about tills time, with a love tor the heiress, and secures the from Wayne, who after tailing and strug gling for it, bands it over with a smile lo Ludson, and to give him time to make a lorged copy Complete, leaves the apart mailt. A quarrel ensues when Bordeau receiving tne paper from Wayne, declares it a iorgery. The villiau Luoson and 80., deau then quarrel over the possession of a letter implicating Ludson in some torin-r evildoing. Ludson kills Bordeau, aud causes Wayne to be thought gGilty. The first act cluses wuh Josephine and ilis Wayne declaring his innocence. Wayne escapes Irom prison in the next act, being assisted by Josephine, Marie, and Xed Esterbrook. The Warden and Ludson pursue, but the hero assumes the disguise of a Jewish peddler and escapes. The author does not explaiu how a prisoner es caping alone from Sing Sing, so readily gets into the forest. Act 3 is unimportant, but in 4 we are in troduced to a pretty bit of realism, a pump ing oil well. Wayne has as the Jew sold the Renfrew property to himself, as Lord Cleverdale, a rich Englishman, and thoroughly disguised in mutton chops, is able to appear in public once more. The wells are immensely prolific and Lord Cleverdale rolls in money. Lndscn is now agent for the Standard Oil Co. and in close water. He schemes to throw Josephine out of her property, succeeds, gets her to make a conditional promise to marry him, when, presto, the Englishman puts forth his hand, changes all, and reappears in his former character of Harold Wayne. The company performing this play is strong. Chas Parker as Ned Esterbrook is at once the cleverest one in the cast Lillian Rice makes a handsome and lova ble Josephine and Margaret Shriver a win some Marie. The play needs trimming very much, notably the camp meeting sketch, the scene with the warden and others. We in edict a success for it under its new name, "In Pennsylvania." The author is Prof. A. D. Lielield, of Pittsburg. RAILROAD TIME TABLES. PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD. THE STANDARD RAILROAD lOF AMERICA WlfrT PENNSYLVANIA DIVISION. SCIIKDfLE IN '.EFFECT NOVEMBER 20Ul, 1893 South WEEK DAYS . A. M.
