Don't Look This Over

We have just taken our invoice and find some goods that we don ' t want, that we would rather have the money for than to keep the goods, and think it will be to your advantage to call and see if there are not some of them that you want. Don't delay, but come at once and we will let you have anything, from a wire dishrag to the finest china ware, from a snow shovel to a tin dipper. Ju s t think of it, we have any q u a n -tity of the finest stone china ware, which we will guarantee not to craze, and will sell it to you cheaper than it was ever bought before; and Lamps! the days will soon be so long that there will be but little use for them and we will close them out at a sacrifice.

A ROMANCE O P RICHES.

Tha Town of RooaorUle, W h e r s a a Aero Was W o r t h **,000,000.

l U s i t the oldest town in ths Paonsylranla oii regiooa, having been the first town to spr ing Into llfs under the wonderful stimulus of l b s oil sxcltemear. i t i t locatsd on 011 creak, two and a half mllas aboro OU City, and It was here t h a t t h e third wall was drilled for oik and oo l b s McElbanny f a r m , a thort distance above Ronserllia, t h s first real " spoute r" was s t ruck. This was t h e famo.n "Founta in wall," which fiowsd a s trsam of oil over ths topof tbo derrick, high above tbe tallest trees In l b s neighborhood, and started t h s g rea t rnsh of people into this woodsrfal region. This was once a g n a t oil metropolis, with banking offices, scores of hotels snd all ths com me tr ial faclllUes of a city. Being so near t o Oil City and Petroleum Center, Its population oevsr g o t s h o r e 10,00u, if il reached that figure, but it was one of tbe most active cities In tbo belt of o a It wss sarrounded by some of the wonderful flow-ing wells of early oil d a n . Tba Widow Uo-CUntoek farm, which fell Into tbe posMssloo of Johnny Htssle. a f t s rwarda known lo the world as "Coal Oil Johnny , " b within sigbt of this town. Like all otbsr oil towns, Rouse-r i l l s has bssn swept by fire a number of tlmss, aad there la h o t l i t t le of the old town l e f t W h a t b M l of It la a curiona old rello, l a which there b but l i tUe to suggest the bustle and s x d t s m e o t s n d lbs fo r tunes lost and woo In fo rms- d a y a "Coal Oil Johnny" b by n o mtans tbe only msn who found en easy f o r t u n e within t igh t of t h b queer old town. The first g rea t oil firs was here whea the Roose well was burned, and Henry Rouse, a f t e r whom the town w u named, wan horned to dea th , aloog wi th sixteen o ther men. Tbs s tory of t h b i r a s a d y has tneu told In these columns and n e s l not be repeated. I t was t h s most appalling tragedy in tho bbtory of oil Area, and, being lite first,it c r e a t e d a won-de r fu l ssnsstloq There has been talk of erect ing a monument on tha si te of tbe fire to honor lbs memory of the slxteeu men who were the first to perish la tbe dereloputenl of t h s oil region. Col. Drake, who drilled the I r s t nil well, has no monument yet , and tbe r i l b s n s of Rooserl l le do not beliovs t h a t e i ther tnooumenl will ever be e r o d e d

If oil were found In a li teral lake, instead of in a porous rock, Roussr l ib , like Petro-leum Center, would h a r e been si Coated over a lake of o i l A aumber of big weib were s t ruck within tba Umita of t h s town, aad g r e a t "gtuhers" surrounded t h e town on e r e r y side. Not only were the OU creek data here wonderful ly peolific, b u t Cherry r u n , which emptlee Into OU creek a t t h b point, produced soms wells oolysscood l a rtchoess to the OU eresk wells. Some of t b a largaat of these ws r s near RoussrOle, snd i t can be said t h a t tho wells In tha r iclai ty h a r e produced enough oU to b a r s sub-merged lbs town. Tbs money value of the oil taken f rom tbe ground nea r RoussvUls b abovs 150,000,000. Ths Story f a r m alone baa

about 110,000,000 worth of petro-and still has a small p rodoe t ioo-per -

haps 100 b a r r s b per month. Tbe first well drilled a t Roussvllle, the th i rd oo tbs c n e k , s s stated, was p u t down by t h e primitive method of a "spr ing polo engine." T h b wsa no engine a t aU. ba t a s tout sapiiag, o r t p r i ag po i to which the loob ware attached. Three or tour men srould poll the spring pole down and Its spring woold l i f t t h s loob fo r tbe next stroke. T h b w u called " t r amping a wall ddwn," and a s many of them were t ramped down t o t b e depth ot SOO and 000 feet the operation was v s r y slow and tedioua. No l e a than ISO w a l b were pot down oo Oil crock In t h b c ruda way before steam w u ap-plied to ths work . Where th ree moo ths were of ten required to driU a wsll theo, oos b drilled now in ten days and even taa.

T b a bbtory of aomeof the b i t wells near RouesvUle b the history of many, and will se rve to illoatrate t b e amazing richneas of tbe oil belt in t h b section. Ths Reed well, oo Cher ry ran, w u struck J u l y 17, 1801. I t was located oa an a c r e of lease.! ground. T b s land interest w u to receive one-quarter of t h s oil and the owners of tbe well the balance. One well was p o t down, and In ninety d s y t f r o m start ing the drill tTSVOOO bad been real-ized f i o m i l by the working in le r t s l alone. Tba Bingo OU company, of Phibtlelphia, bought out ono-qnarter of the land itilsrestin tbe reU for |3S0,000, a f t e r Ihe owner had al-ready sold 190,000 worth nf oil f r o m it. Mr. Raed, a f te r selling $7-'i,000 worth of oU f r o m h b account, told lo Ulsliop, li ianll & Co. half of bis Interest fo r 1300.000. A man named Frazier had an l a l e n a t In the well tha t netted h im 1100,000 in oU, and he af l e r w a n b sold h b interest for | i00,000cash. Moelof theaesales were cash lu liand. Tha Mingo OU company paid tSJO.OOO for their interest in one pay-maoL Three otbn- weib were drilled oa t h b one acre of gronnd, and f rom the four wells 19,000,000 wore realizsd T h b is per hups the ricbcst acre of ground aver dsveloped In tbe oil country. Tbo original owners were men of amaU means, a n d all became wealthy f r o m t h b tingle t ransact ion Even the Philadel-phia and New Y o r k eoni |aulee who bought them out M such az t ravagan t fignrta real-ized haiAuo;u:!y from their investment There b no sign of the Reed weU or any of l u rich neighbors now." The pieces where the derricks and tanksstood are grown high with weeds and hushes, awl f rom the mine of wealth the spot baa returned t o l l s primitive wildness and worthlcssnesa.—RotusvlUe (Pa.)

WE DO NOTHING BY HALVES. If you want a Suit or Overcoat for less

money than they were ever sold for before; now is your opportunity. If you havn't the cash, borrow it, you can save dollars by pur-chasing now for next winter.

Remember this will be the cheapest sale of Clothingever offered to the traam£ pub-lic of Lowell and Vicinity. Don't forget that while our Boot and Shoe stock lasts we can pave you from 25 to 40 per cent.

Tba mamorr of hot few of the pioneers af western fUlnols and s a i t e m Iowa will osrry them back with me to December JO, 1838, tbe date of ths long t ime remsmliarsd sudilso change, t h s most remarkable In meteorogical annals t h a t Is recorded, and now only found In a fsw old fllea of t h s uairspspers of t h s t day and refarrad to In n o M of tbs Histories of t h a t thus.

umdsr and l ightning. The snow was malting f rom Uu Influsnce

of the springlike weather and the rain, and had become "slush" snow, mud and watsr. This continued to near II o'clock in tbe morn-log, whsn off to the northwest was observed a dark, heavy c loud As f« rose toward tbs asnlth i t spread west and north, accompanied hy a low, bellowing nobs , " M t b s sound of fa r off waters fal l ing Into deep abynes , " As t h e d o n d spread It became Inky black, the thunder locreored, ths l ightning > played, making a grand pyrotechnic display from this artUlory practice In the sky.

Tho commotion increased. T h s a i r sssmsd resonant with t h s tnmul t of tha alements and the bellowing sound as f rom t b s bowels of ths ear th Increased It was e v e r y w h e r e -pervaded space. "Could not tell whence It came or whi ther It w e n l " A dusky dark-ness spread over tha ea r th , the thunder and lightning still continuing. Then t h s wind broke looes and sprssdy its Icy prsssnce over the land—"the December t haw" was a t an sod. Winter claimed dominion, showed his powsr by bis coldness, and ciaspsd e a r t h and spaas la his embrace.

Tbe thunder and Ughtaing ceased, as did Ihe bellowing sound, b u t the clear cu t , plsro-t a g w t a d c a m a with freezing power f r o m tho hlsakstrs tohas of the nor thern prairies, and la less time t han I am writ ing this the watsr, mow and sof t ea r th were congealed into ice, so t h a t in a minute i t would bear the weight of a msn , and in ten or fifteen minutes a b o s s oould t ravel over It wi thout breaking th rosgh .
