A KENTUCKY LESSON.
Kentucky receives considerable cen
sure for what are considered short
comings in its system of iurisprudonce,
or connivance on the part of its most
respectable citizens at gross violations
of the criminal statutes of the common
wealth. Shooting and cutting in the
.Bourbon State are of almost eyeiy day
occurence, and the guilty are permit
ted to go nnpunished and even unpro
secuted, in many instances.
That this is not because of the In
ability of the courts to secure speedy
trials to accused persons, the Scott
Jackson murder case, now being heard
at Newport, is an example. The jury
was impanelled without unnecessary
delay and captious challenges. Wit
nesses have been subject to no badger
ing. Irrelevant questions have not
been put to them, as a rule. The pro
secution has elicited what was material
and pertinent, and then stopped, while
the defense has not cross-examined for
the simple sake of doing so.
In many respects the trial has been a
novel one. It might have been made
more dramatic. This, however, would
not have enlightened the jury or aided
the court more than plain statements
of facts. The lawyers are not 'men
with national reputations. They ap
pear to comprehend what they are
about and do not under estimate the
duties they owe both to society and the
prisoner. The lesson is one which
might be studied with profit on this
aide of the river. Courier.
December and Slay.
Zanesville, Ohio, April 30. It devol
opes that the "December and May"
jnarriage in which Charles Gorsuch,
who is a prominent and wealthy resi
dent of this county, and Miss Maud
Cordcr, of Flemington, W. Va., were
the contracting parties, contains ele
ments of loye, sympathy and the "I
will" kind of Americanism,
Mr. Gorsnch is County Infirmary Di
rector, is well off and last summer his
maiden Bister, who is his hou&ekeoper,
had as a guest Miss Corder, who spent
most of her time away from home be
cause of her Inability tb get along with
a step-father. Love ,and sympathy
were blended'Tn Mr. dorsuch, and' tfl!
though he is seventy and sbs nineteen
he became alsuitor and won his suit
Gates Post Resolution.
The following resolution was passed
by a nnanimous vote at tho regular
meeting April 27th.
Resolved, That a B. Gates Post No.

expressed by the Buell Post No. 178,

IN THE OIL FIELDS.
Tho Rogersou wcH and vicinity con

They will to a largo extent show the
size of tho pool. The Thompson estate
on the Ohio side has been leased by
Slstcrsyille pooplo and a well is to bo
drilled there. There hayobeon Boveral

but as tho ones testing wero in search
of a deep sand no attempt to develop
was made. Tho last of thoso was drill

and are good for 50 barrels per day.
T. A. & R. G. Gillespie's well on tho
Clark farm, on the ridge between Elm
run and Devil Hole is expected in by
Friday or Saturday.
A. C. Hawkins who has the McGregor
farm leased, has , let the contract for.
putting down a test, located about one
fourth mile north of town. Tho con
tractors are now at work, and will bo
pushed as rapidly as possible. Tho
general opinion is that it will be a pro

Tho South Penn Oil Co. have let tho
contract for putting down a well on
McFarland.
Bamsdall Co. are drilling for the
Berea grit, on John Marshall's farm on
Devil Hole, their well making only 2
barrels in the Salt Sand.
Ellenboro, W. Va., April 30. The re
port that the Barnsdall well on the
John Israel farm, on Rock run, was in
and a duster was incorrect, as the tools
have been fast for a week and the well
is not due until the latter part of this
week.
The Hamilton No. 2, on .Whisky run,
is still afflicted with a fishing job.
The Cairo Oil Company's Yocky No.
3 and Weaver No. 2 are now thought
to be good for 50 barrels a day. This
holds nearly all tho gilt-edged territory
in the Cairo field.
A. C. Hawkins is building a rig on
tho MacGregor farm and will put an
other test well down at once.
The South Penn Oil Company haye
made a location at McFarlan, the ter

will put down a well at once.
T. N. Barnsdall's well on the J. W.
Marshall farm, on Devil Hole, is only a
two-barreler in the salt sand where oil
i3 usually found in tho Cairo district,
and is being drilled to the Berea grit.
Another well is due in to-morrow at
Hebron, and is likely to be as good as
any drilled there, as the territory in
this section is developing into a cinch
Cow Run producing' field.
The Rock Oil Company have had a
derrick completed and the machinery
on Col. J. M. McKinney's farm, on
Black's run, for several months, but
for some reason do not betrln work.
Thore is a great need of telephone
connection with the various fields near
here, and a movement is now on foot
to erect lines to connect the principal
points with the railroad.
Major A. S. McDougal, of Uarrisyllle,
has taken up a large block of leases on
Lost run, about one and a half miles
southwest of here, and it is said he has
interested parties who will put down a
test well soon.

the dynamo has been shipped. Work
will begin Monday preparatory to plac
ing the water wheel and it.will only be
a few weeks until the plant is in oper
ation. We understand that Mr. Hum
phrey has made the town the very lib
eral proposition of furnishing 14 arc
lights for ?509, which would be SS5.71
per light. The price is exceedingly low
as we know of no place that pays less
than $50 per light. A rough estimate
of the cost of lighting our streets with
the lamps, which are at present in use,
and the service of which is yery unsat
isfactory, places the cost at between
$350 and t400 making the difference
rather nominal; and when a fair com
parison is made between the service of
the two modes of lighting we do not
believe any person can raise a reason
able objection to the town accepting
Mr. Humphrey's offer. Beverly Dis
