—The bit of road or street from the
end of the Mifflin st. paving up New
Castle at. to the stone quarry, was about
M bad a piece of road as there was in
the county, last week, and is not much
better this.
—lf there is any business which is
great and prosperous you will find that
its success is doe in great measure to
advertising. None can be made suc
cessful without publicity. You can do
what anybody else has done. Adver
tise pioperly and yonr business will
gros».
—ln newspaper work there is nothing
like getting things clear and distinct.
A Glasgow paper, for instance, in its
account of a shipwreck, said: "The
Captain swam ashore and succeeded in
saving the life of his wife. She was in
sured in the Northern Marine Insurance
Co., and carried a cargo of cement."
—Some slight changes have been made
in the West Penn time table, on ac
count of the trains now leaving the Ft.
Wayne station in Allegheny. The
morning trains for Bntler now leave

the afternoon at 2:57. 5:16 and 8:47. See
new time table for particulars—in*
another column.

Bros, follow on the 7th and Bth, Bar
nnm & Bailey are due on the 17th and
18th, while Wallace's circus will be
there the latter part of the month.
•
—The story that that tribe of Igoro
tes from tbe Philippine Islands will be
denied their usual rations of dog meat
while visiting tbe St. Louis Exposition
is doubtless a campaign lie. There are
worthless dogs enough in the country
to supply them with roasts, stews and
frys every day in the weak. The Hu
mane Society, if it lives up to its name,
will agree to furnish the dogs.—Der
rick.
—The effort to Introduce more
strenuous discipline in the schools has
resulted in a compromise proposition in
Chicago. The Central - Teachers'
Council there has asked not for the
restriction of the full-grown rod, but
for the power of spanking. Moreover
this primary and domestic correction is
farther hedged about with the promise
that the consent of parents will first be
obtained.
—ln these days of patent medicines
the good, old "yarb" remedies of our
grandmothers have been overlooked or
forgotten. But it now seems they are
to have public recognition by the Agri
cultural Department making an exhibit
of them at the St. Louis Exposition. A
large and suitable building has been
ohoeen for the ahow, and it may be our
grandmothers' drugs will come to their
own again and the cultivation of other
medicinal plants be encouraged which
we now import.
—The California mint broke all re-
Cords last month by coining 133,113,500
in gold, an average of over a million a
day. This, together with the amount
coined in February. $31,580,000, makes
a total of $54,682,500 coined in two
months. That amonnt of gold coin will
weigh 110 tons, and would make four
good car loads. But no matter how
mtich gold is coined we never seem to
have enough. The old socks of the
country absorb it as readily as a sponge
takea up water, and yon see very little
of it.

Dr. Edward Everett Hale, chaplain of
the U. S. Senate, is still hopeful of the
human race. Many yonnger men are
despairing of humanity because they
see some things which make them
grieve. The good old doctor, who has
seen more of life than any of us, and
perhaps lived more than any of us, is
hopeful. He has seen the progress cf
more than a century as viewed through
his own eyes and those of his early
contemporaries. If he is an optimist,
there is no reason why any of us
should feel discouraged. He is in his
84th year.

had become the leading river man of
Pittsburg. His boats took reinforce
ments, arms and provisions to Grant's
army at Pittsburg Landing, and saved
the day. Then he had Grant arrested

to the brand of whiskey that Grant
drank. In later years he has been in
terested in street cars, brick making
and other industries.

Japan and Her War.
The most fascinating series of war
stories that has yet come to America of
the conflict of the Russian and the Jap
is that from Will Levington Comfort in
The Pittsburg Dispatch, which began
two weeks ago. Mr. Comfort is a young
writer who has already achieved dis
tinction in two wars, having served
with the United States troops in Puerto
Rico during 1898, and then spent three
years in the Philippines, where he
wrote Bome of the most thrilling war
| tales that haye been published since the
1 days of the Rebellion.
Mr. Comfort sees war from the stand
point of the soldier, the man in ranks
rather than the Gen. He will follow the
march of the forces of tbe Mikado
through Korea and his descriptions of
the scenes during the actual land fight
ing are looked forward to with interest
by those who have read his wonderful
stories of the Philippine struggle. Mr.
Comfort will write from the Far East
exclusively foe The Dispatch.

Oil. NOTES-
The Market—Remains at |1.65.
Butler Twp—An old well on the Jno.
Diniiii;er was cleaned out and rigged
up, lately, aud is doing some cil from
the boulder. It was drilled for gas to
a depth of 3,800 feet, sixteen years ago.
Pine Tract—Braden. Conway & Co
have a 15-barrel well on the old Pine
tract, near Ontida station, in Oakland
and Centre twps.
Penn Twp —The South Penn's well on
the the U Puff ia repotted doing 90
barrels, aud the Cowden & Co s 5 bbls.
Mexico—Referring to possible petro
leym developments in Mexico, ex-Mayor
J. A Fawcett. of Oil City, one of the
firm of the Crystal Oil Works, is quoted
in a recent dispatch from the City of
Mexico as saying: "The oil belt opened
| in Texas undoubtedly extends along the
; Golf coast of Mexico, through the
( isthmus of Tehauntepec aud int j
| Yucatan. Oil discoverits so lar have
have demonstrated this, lam inclined
' to look upon Mexico a 9 the coming oil
1 country f ih- world, aud expect to h-ur
jof big strikes being made within the
j next f<rW years I think that oil will be
■ found in the mountainous districts of
northern Mexico as well us i:i I h-j coast
country."
The Stocks—The oil fields of New
York. Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiaria,
West Yirtrinia. Kentucky aud Tennes
see would have to increase their pro
duction more than 3.000.000 barrels dur
ing the present j ear if they did no uiorv
thi.n to make n\> the drainage upon
their stocks which the demands of con
sumption entailed npnn them during
the past jear, and that, too, in spite of
the extensive use of Texas ana other
oils. With the beginning of spring
there is natural depression in many re
spects in the refining business, and at
the same time couie more propitious
weather and roads for field operations,
and the two factors combine to make
temporary increase in production over
consumption. As long as this increase
is but making up in part for excessive
drainaee instead of creating a threaten
ing surplus the only reason for material
cuts in crude prices is that the purchas
ing agencies can just as well replenish
their stocks at lower prices—as long as
tt-ose who sell tho crude do not promote
mere independent facilities for taking
c.ire of the product Petro Gazette.
