OPERATORS GO TO ILLINOIS

WILDOATTING GOES ON IN EVERY DIRECTION FROM TESTED TERRITORY. DEEP SAND DEVELOPMENT Poshing Towards the Famous Old Terre Haute Well, a Wonder of Its Day. Casey, 111., March 9. The counties of Coles, Cumberland, Clark and Edgar, in the southern part of Illinois have jumped into prominence very rapidly the past few months among the oil producing fraternity, with Casey as the center of attraction. Old settlers of north Casey tell stories of oil wells in what is now the center of the Casey districts that were drilled during the civil war, but never developed until within the past two years. Ilaublitze & Company, of Parkersburgh, W. Va., about two years ago revived the oil business in this district by leasing up a large block of land and developing the. same Test wells were drilled between Casey and Westfield in Clark county and in the astern edges of Coles and Cumberland counties which produced bot h gas and oil. Ilaublitzel & Company kept busy in their quiet way until they had thoroughly tested their holdings when they made known their discovery of oil by asking for pipe line facilities. Until that time little if any credit was gven to the oil stories from the Casey districts but, once an investigation by Standard Oil parties of Casey oil fields and the boom was on; operators from all parts of the United States came and after proper investigation invested. The field today embraces a small amount ,of developed territory -located in Westfield, Casey and Parker townships, Clark county, Hutton township in Cumberland county, on which is located 200 producing wells drilled to an average depth of 400 feet. The northern edge of this pool as far as present developments prove the sand to lay nearer the surface with outcroppngs in the broken country west of Paris along the line of the Terre Haute & Indianapolis railroad in Edgar county A stray sand has been found at Barton which produces oil at a depth of 360 feet. This well has never been thoroughly tested bu demonstrates that this formation also contains more or less oil. Developments to the south and southwest of this prolific shallow sand field have so far shown nothing, but southern developments go . to prove that the Casey formation dips rather suddenly and records of wells drilled have showed no oil, but an abundance of salt water. Drilling to the east in a southerly direction from Martinsville have developed several gas wells with a pressure of several hundred pounds and producing gas at the rate of from 500,000 to 1,000,000 cubic feet per day. Developments have spread rapidly over several of the adjoining counties and in Oblong township, Crawford county, 33 miles south of the Casey development, the "wild-cat-. ter" has been rewarded and we find MOTHER AND CHILD. Let the mother take Scott's Emulsion for the two; it never fails to benefit them both. One can eat for two, but nourishing two is a different thing. It calls for a degree of internal strength that the average woman lacks. People of luxury are not very strong by 'habit; overworked people are weak, in some functions from exhaustion or theirsurroundings. Scott's Emulsion can be depended upon to overcome such conditions. . It is a wonderful food for a mother and child. fJOTT & BOWNE. 400 Pearl Slraet. Nw York.

a well drilled by Hughes & Findley, of Pittsburg, on the Shire farm, which produces oil at a depth of 900 feet. ' - Up to date the total extent of the Casey shallow sands may have been reached, but the southern developments have renewed activities and the tendency of the operators in these districts today is to demonstrate the extent of the newly developed deep sands. Princeton, Gbson county, Indiana, has for the past three years, produced oil in this same formation, thus developments now to extend the Oblong pool in that direction are being carried on while the old Phoenix well at Terre Haute that has produced more oil than any other well in the whole of the state of Indiana holds for other operators an objective point and much work will be done in that direction. Geologists who have been in these districts for the past two weeks have so far been silent and have made no statements as to the exact relationship of the two now producing oil sands. The Princeton, Ind., development has long since told the operator of its staying qualities and developments of the future throughout the Illinois oil fields will all be carried on with the intention of tapping the deeper sand.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tubes. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, O.

Unique Altar Will be 222 Feet in the Air Above Evansville FactoryDaring Climb. Evansville, Ind., March 9. Miss Jeannette Daugherty, a pretty 17-year-old miss, a student in the Evansville high school climbed 222 feet to the top of a smokestack here when the workmen were not watching just because she was dared to do so. She. then broke a bottle of wine over the top of the stack, threw kisses at hundreds of people below who had gathered to witness the feat, and descended in safety. The smokstack is the tallest piece of architectural work in the city. It will be completed Thursday. It belongs to a local gas company. To celebrate the completion of the stack, Manager McDonald of the gas company has offered a prize of a $100 bedroom suit and a $50 gas stove to any couple who will be married on top of the stack. He made the offer on Sunday. Bright and early Monday morning a couple applied at his office to take him at his word. Six other couples came during the day. It was decided to hold the offer open longer and then place all the names of the couples in a hat and draw one, the one drawn to have the ceremony performed on top of the stack. No names will be given out until the selection is made. The wedding will occur next Sunday afternoon. "Suffered day and night the torment of itching piles. Nothing helped me until I used Doan's Ointment. It cured me permanently." Bon. John R. Garrett, Mayor, Girard, Ala. Elsworth Defrance has been 'pardoned from the South Dakota penitentiary after serving twelve years for stealing a mail pouch which contained one cent. Serves him right for stealing a "little thing" like a penny. Harsh physics react, weaken the bowel, cause . chronic constipation.

GOVERNOR K1LY TO ISSUE BOOK

RUSH ORDER GIVEN TO GET VOLUME ON THE MARKET WITHIN 30 DAYS. MYSTERY AS TO CONTENTS Governor Intends to Get His Views Circulated Before the State Convention. Marion, Ind., March 9. Governor J. Frank Hanly will publish a book. It will be published at Marion, the contract having been awarded to the Teachers' Journal Printing company. It will be published within thirty days, but nothing is known as to what the book will contain. The issue will consist of 10,000 copies and the volume will be something over 200 pages. Of the 10,000 copies 1,000 will be bound in cloth and these will constitute an autograph edition. The remaining 9,000 will be bound in paper and will reatil at 50 cents each. The material for the book is now in the hands of the printers and while at this time it is not disclosed what the book will contain it is believed that part of it at least will consist of public utterances of the governor during his term of office, including speeches, both on state and general topics. Whether the governor desires to place before the public in unabridged form his action relative to the Sherrick and Storm cases can only be surmised. The fact that the publication is to be issued within thirty days and preceding the Republican state convention, is an indication to some that the governor desired to get something before the people before that event. When Governor Hanly spoke at the National Soldiers' Home in this city during the Lincoln League meeting he had his speech taken verbatim by' a stenographer. This is said to have been his custom when making public addresses for some time past. The Breath of Life. It's a significant fact that the strongest animal of its size, the gorilla, also has the largest lungs. Powerful lungs means powerful creatures. How to keep the breathing organs right, should be man's chief est study. Like thousands of others, Mrs. Ora A. Stephens, of Port Williams, O., has learned how to do this.

KLEPTOMANIA. Its Pecnlirtrftle niaatrnted br rbynIctuu'H Experience. "What do I thlnV of k!e:toaianiar ald a detective. "Well, let me tell you a kleptomania story. This story fits, I hold, about nine cases out oi ten. "A New York specialist got on n certain morning the card of one of tliv? richest of our wostai'a millionaires. He went down instantly and found a well dressed man, who said: 'I am here, sir. oa a delicate and painful matter. My wife is a victim of kleptomania, and, knowing your skill in mental diseases, I Lava brought her on for treatment under you." " 'Drills the lady to see uie tomorrow morning," said the physician. "It will be best, perhaps, not to brine her to your office, faltered the millionaire. 'The s-ht of other patients misht excite her. I suggest' " 'I'll receive her in my drawing room. Will that Le better?" asked the physician. " Oh. much better," said the other in a relieved tone. "And the next day the western millionaire led into the physician's drawing room a young woman of singular beauty. She was magnificently dressed, but her eyes were furtive and restless, and when she thought no ony was looking at her she secreted under her coat three or four valuable ornaments. The physic'.. m and the westerner smiled slightly at one another. "The physician, after his . examination of the patient, told the husband to return the next day alone. " 'And when I come," said the husband. 'I'll bring back these things that she has ta!ien. " 'Do,' s?aid the physician. " 'I will, paid the westerner. "Cut he didn't. He won't. lie and his wife aro thieves, and they have worked their kleptomania dodge in nearly every city in America." New York Tribune. Oregon Tree In Anstrla. A. F. Miller of Sell wood recently made a shipment of 750 pounds of the seeds of fir and" spruce trees to replenish the depleted forests of Austria. One thousand pounds were wanted, but these were all that were gathered. About GOO sacks of cones were picked from young trees, from which the seeds were carefully taken. Between 200 and 300 pounds of seeds were sifted from the whole bulk that did not promise, only the very best being sent across the sea. Oregon fir and spruce are growing on thousands of acres of territory in Germany and Austria that had been denuded of trees. Mr. Miller has been gathering seeds of these trees for several years. lie says that the fir is the most popular tree and the seeds are eagerly sought for, the demand being greater than can be supplied. Portland Oregonian. A Scheme of the Wily Danes. The Danish Biological society is at present experimenting with electric lighting of the deep strait known as the Little Belt. The lights are far beneath the surface of the waters, so as to the light sea bottom. The intention is not, as might be supposed, to make impossible the clandestine passage of submarines, but purely and simply to frighten the eels and to prevent them from passing into the outer seas and thus being lost to the Danish fisheries. The experiments are based upon the fact that these fish are well known to be afraid of light and never, for example, migrate during the time of a full moon. By the expedient of arranging a whole row of artificial full moons across the mouth of the strait the wily Dane hopes to prevent them from migrating at all. English Kleetlon Oddities. If a person's uame gets on the English registry of voters, however improperly, he has an indefeasible right to vote. Thus It happened iu the re cent election that a woman voted for a member of parliament. In another case, at Ilayleigh. in Essex, a schoolboyJames Griggs, eleven years old. residing at Thundersley found himself legally entitled to claim a vote. At the Bayleigh polling station the lad presented himself on the day of the election and, satisfying the officials In charge of his identity with the person named in the register, was given a paper and allowed to vote. Master Griggs has surely established a record, Canada to Our Defense. We shall never trample on the United States. We shall respect their rights and protect them from foes abroad. If the republic needs help, a letter to the government of Canada will bring it. and neither Emperor William nor Pres ident Castro shall be permitted to bully our neighbors or invade their interests. All these services will be performed free of charge, becaue we recognize that a happy and prosperous nation be side us Is a necessity, and that In order to secure this no oppression will be practiced with our consent. Toronto News. After the Astor Ewtate. Abner Emery of Lewistou, Okla.. declares It is his Intention to get possession of f lSO.OOO.COO. half of the present fortune of the Astors. John Emery, he asserts, was a partner of the original John Jacob Astor. John Emery's will, leaving hi3 share of the business to his heirs, was not discovered for seventj--five years. Abner Emery says that he has been hunting thother heirs and that he has found 4S0 of theia.

Often The Kidneys Are Weakened by (frer-Work. Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood, It used to be considered that only urinary and bladder troubles were to be
