Two More UaoiMlclli llronght In?1The llrmvootl l-'lcl?l Now Looks I'romlalng. FUlier Company tn Drill Fifty Weill. Tlw Sistersyllle oil field Is coming to the front this week and the indications arc that It will have as many, if not more big wells in thiin during any other week for a long time. It 1ms bco^ mentioned before that several Import ant wells were expected in this weel? and two of them came In yesterday morning. Word readied Slstersvlllo yesterday morning that the Carter OH Company had drilled in a big well on the Thomas Freeland farm In the Sancho territory located about three miles back of Mld dlebourne. The report was not credit ed at first, but upon Investigation it was found to be correct and the well Is one of the largest and most import ant thut has been drilled In in Tyler county for some time. It is located In a section of the country, the greater part 1 of which Is under lease to the Carter I company,the local branch of the Stand- i ara and It Is pretty hard to get any , facts about it, but it was learned that the well, when drilled In, started at the* j rate of about forty barrels an hour i and at the time the report was received | it was still holding up at that amount. The well is located a short distance I from the first well put down on this | farm and in that territory by this company, in a northeasterly direction, and is about half way between It and the well recently drilled In on the Hughes heirs* farm by Moses & Co., which came In a good producer. The first well drilled on the Freeland farm by the Carter company was completed about a year aso and was reported dry and plugged by that company, but later tbt plug was removed and the well allowed to 11 ow and It started off at about sixty barrels a day. Since that time it has been put to pumping and at this time It Is making about thirty barrels a day. It is one of the best wells that has been drilled in in the back part of.the county, as It has been a good stayer. The fact that Freeland No. 3, the well drilled )n yesterday morning, is right between the wells on the Hughes heirs* farm and No. 1 Freeland is a good indication that a big pool of oil has been opened up and that there will be some big wells gotten out there this winter. The No. S is away ahead of anything that has been drilled out In that sec tion and it opens up a nice lot of new stuff. It is probable that the Carter company will commence at once to get stuff on the ground for the drilling of a large number of wells In the Sancho territory. The future of the Benwood," Monroe county. Ohio, pool Is assured now. For the past few days the Fisher Oil Com pany has had a well due on the Cehrs farm and word was received In Slsters vllle yesterday morning that the well had been drilled in and that It was the largest one completed In that territory so far. The report Is to the effect that when the well was drilled into the >top of the sand It started off at .tba rate of about thirty-five barrels an hour, and was flowing all over everything in that vicinity. It was expected that this well would come In a good producer for the reason that It is located dircct Jy north of all of the wells drilled In over there so far. All of the wells that have been drilled to the north of the first well on the Price farm have come In good producers. The .fact that this well came In m good will stimulate operations. It is known that the Fisher Oil Company has the material at Benwood now for at least fifty new wells and It will in I all probability commence work on some of them at once. This company , took time by the forelock and hauled the material out as soon as It found It had a good well on the Price farm. The | Henry Oil Company, which aJso has quite a lot of territory in the vicinity of Benwood, has placed the material on I the ground for a large amount of work. It has several wells drilling now and will start several more in a very short : time. ABOUT PEOPLE. Strangeis In tlio City *n<l Wheeling folkrf . Abroad. Mr. and Mrs. C. P.

By far the most widely advertised and vigorously pushed entertainment announced in this city for many a day, I is tb;* engagement of Professor and j Mrs. Baldwin, "the White Mahatmas," I and their company, who will appear a week at the Opera House, commencing I October 19. Since 1S82 much of Profes- I sor Baldwin's time has been spent hi the Orient In investigation of the weird and peculiar claims made by devotees of- theosophlcal and rosleruelan mys teries. Tho features Introduced by the artists of the company are of the high est class. The present American tour of the Baldwins commenced the first week In September, 1S!M. in Brooklyn, where they appeared four weeks io tremendous business and received hun-, dreds of letters of commendation from well known people. In these days when realism occupies so prominent a place upon the stage, some startling pictures have been given to the theatre going public, but of all productions "The Pulse of New York," soon to be seen at the Grand Opera House. Is at the head of the list. When sccnery and realistic mechanical effects are considered, "The Pulse of New York" tells a'thrilling story of life In the grent metropolis, and Is presented by a most capnble company, headed by Miss Carrie Lamont, a clever soubrette, who will be rcxncmbewl as the star for sev eral seasons of -her own company, and Chrlo Bruno, who last season was prin cipal comedian of the "Devil's Auction" company. Tho't the charms of a high-class vaudeville entertainment are as potent an ever Is evidenced by the success that has followed the .lames Thornton's Elite Vaudeville company, wlrluh has opened itu season under the direction of Ivejser & Wolf, and which will be the attrac tion nt the Grand Opera houso. to-night and tho rest of the week. AN INTERESTING QUESTION Involving the Higlit of Hitjre* to be I'J need on the ibillot for Congi-eat. Spcclal Dispatch to tho Intellfgenccr. PAUKERHBURO, W. Va.. Oct. 14. A meeting of the ballot commissioners of this county wa* held to-day to decide the question aa to whoso name* shall appear on tho Populist ballot, u* tho nominee for Congress from the Fourth district, that of Walter Pendleton or of G. Wacren?Hays. Certificates of the nomination of both men havo been filed with Circuit Court Clerk Clemens. 13. 31. Ambler appeared before, tho commis sioners In behalf of Pendleton, which Judge R. F. Fleming, of Ravenswood, took care of Hayu' claim. Judge Flem ing claimed that the decision of the vex ed question lay with Clerk Clemens alone, but did not object to tho other commissioners, Messrs.* R. Alexander nnd H. D. Gram brill, being present Mr. Ambler spoke first. He argued that Pendleton having been nominated by the regular convention of the Populist party, the name of Hays, who, he claim ed, was nominated by petition, could not Appear on the ballot, In that party's column, and. therefore, .nowhere else, as a party can have but one column. Judge Fleming made the startling assertion that no other candidate but Hays had i been legally nominated by the Populists 1 In this congressional district, na the Populist r.tate convention -held here did not represent a party polling one-third of the votes at the last general election. The Populist congressional convention' In the district did as be believed, fulfill that condition. His argument was that ITays could not be ousted. Tho state nnd- congressional Populist tickets are both affected. The commissioners have reached no conclusion yet. (lfow Tliey Stnnd. Speclnl Dispatch to tho Intelllgenccr. PARKERSHURG, ,VT.

LOUISVILLE, ICy., Oct. 14.?A spcclal to the Times from Frankfort, Ky., says: The Seventh district Republicans com mittee met here to-dayand resolved It self into a convention and nominated W. C. P. Breckinridge as that party's candidate for Congress. This meana that the name of Colonel Breckinridge, who has already been nominated by the nationnl Democrats, will go under the Republican device on the ballot. It also practically Insures the election of the ex-congressman after one term of pri vate life following the disclosures of the famous scandal that defeated him in his race for re-election two years ago. By a remarkable rtadfastness of purpose Colonel Breckinridge has lived down the disgrace that involved hi3 honored name and the story of two years ago in seldohi referred to by his political opponents.

One man is all right except hU rheumatUtn, another has a "?light touch " of dyspepsia, another has , bilious headaches, and another is too nerv ous to sleep well. What's to be done About it? The ?ituation is 8erious. Little things | have a way of petting big. Big diseases are bad things.. Sleeplessness brings irritable nerves, loss of flesn, loss of appetite, bleep less people soon get their bodies into such a condition that disease-genus find it easy to lodge there and propagate. People die from the aggravation of an aggrcgationof lit. tie things. The more promptly a disease ox disorder is met the more quickly it is ctircd. Most all sickness starts in the stomach, liver or lungs. Rheumatism, scrofula, cc rcroa. consumption, come about because insufficient, impure or impoverished blood is present The diseased blood finds the weakest spot in the body and a local ajnnp*, torn appears. 1 f the impurity is supplanted with good, rich, red, healthy corpuscles, the disease will have nothing to feed on. If the proper cleansing medicine is sent to the scat of the trouble, it will force out the germs and repair the damage done. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is a cleansing, purifying medicine, a blood enricher, a nerve strengthened It is an efficient tonic, aids digestion, creates healthy appetite and healthy flesh. It i does not make people "fat." It makes them strong. It makes useful flesh?solid I muscle. It will cure any sickness that ' has its source in the digestive organs, or j through them in the blood.
