WILD OVER OIL discoveries of oil, wells in BEAUMONT, TEXAS. Capacity of the Wells Greater Than Any in the Conntry—Mr. G. E. Dickinson of Savannah One of the Orsn.nlr.ers of n Stock Company to Develop OH Wells, Has Returned From the Oil Fields—He Says Land Is Selling at Fahnlons Prices—The Industry Is a Great One. Mr. Gardner E. Dldkinson, second vice president of the Orleans-Beaumont Oil arid Land Company of New Orleans, has returned from Beaumont. Tex., where the excitement of oil well discoveries is at Its highest. The first wells were discov ried in January. The Lucas gusher, which spouts 70,000 barrels of oil daily, wan opened Jan. 10. This discovery threw the oil district into a fever of excitement and well after well was sunk. At present more than thirty wells are being bored. Land has advanced 40 per cent, in the past few- weeks, and is selling around the Lucas gusher for $40,000 to $90,000 per acre. Mr. Dickinson thinks the sale of laV.d in the oil district will aggregate $1,000,000 daily. He is one of the origi nators of the Orleans-Beaumont Oil and Land Company. He landed in. New or leans In April looking after the exporta tion of cotton. The oil discoveries was all he heard. In company with Mr. E. Perrin, a large cotton merchant and rail road president of New Orleans, and Mr. T. P. Thompson, an influential business man of New Orleans, he went out to Beaumont. While there, they were, so favorably impressed that options were secured on something like 300 acree of oil land 111 800 yard's of the Luous gusher, and lying on two large railroads. Mr. Dickinson said upon returning to New Orleans, the cotton merchants met and a company was organized. With exception possibly of one or two firms, every cotton man lr New Orleans Is a member of it. He said that it is composed of the best met in New Orleans. The president,Mr. A. Brit tin is a prominent business man of New Orleans, and has been foremost in every worthy enterprise which was started there. He is chairman of the Sinking Fund Committee of New Orleans, is chairman of council and a director in the Union Bank, one of the largest banking houses there. Mr. Wm. P. Eno, who is third vice president, is owner of Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York. Mr. S. P. Walmsley is president of the New Orleans I'otton Exchange, and a prominent cot ton merchant. Mr. W. P. Richardson is a prominent cotton factor. Mr. Richardson N brother-in-law of Col. Beirne Gordon of this city. Mr. C. A. Johnson of Co lumbus, Miss., president of First State Bank. Mr. Lawrence Fabacher, president Jackson Brewing Company, the largest establishment in the South. And other business men- equally prominent. Mr. Dickinson said that the company holds its lands in fee simple. Before taking hold of it the opinion of counsel from both New Orleans and Beaumont was obtained and that the titles are absolute ly flawless. The company pledged itself not to sell its individual stock below par, and that the stock which is being dis posed of is treasury stock, sold, lie said, to raise funds to develop the wells. Mr. Dickinson said, referring to oil dis coveries: "The center of the new Texas oil field is about three miles south of Beaumont, Jefferson county, Texas. The first gusher was struck Jan. 10. 1901, and at once an enormous stream of oil, the full size of the 6-inch casing, spouted to a hight of over 20u feet, being forced upward -by a pressure of over ti.ooo pounds to the square inch. The pressure was so great that It was impossible to check the flow', which continued for ten days before being brought under control. The flow could not then be measured, but it was con servatively estimated at 25,000 barrels a day. When (the gusher was again opened it filled a io.ooo barrel tank In less than twelve hours, or at a rate of 70.000 barrels per day." He said the greatest excitement followed the first strike and active devel opments were immediately begun on all sides, with the result that eleven more gush°rs have been struck in the vicinity, with a capacity apparently as great as the first well. Mr. Dickinson said on first impression it would seem that as the Beaumont oil is chiefly a fuel oil, it would be of sec ondary importance to a higher grade oil; but when the relative demands for fuel oil and refined oil are considered, it is evident that a fuel oil, in the apparently inexhaustible quantities in which it has beer, found in the Beaumont field, is of much more importance and value than an illuminating oil in the comparatively lim ited quantities that nature has provided it. The demand for refined oil, he said, is to a certain extent limited, and the supply at the present time is approxi mately equal to the demand, while the demand for fuel oil has been met in only one country, Russia, where the consump tion of fuel oil amounts to more than eight times the combined consumption of alt the refined oils. Referring to the excitement again, Mr. lhekinson said that an old theater which bad perhaps paid Its owners S3OO an nually had been cut up Into offices for oil and land promoters, and was now yielding its owners over $3,000 a month. Mr. Dickinson’s company engaged a fmall floor space in the balcony at what he considered a heavy rental. Before leaving New Orleans he sub-rented a space 3 feet by 4 for SSO a month. The engines which force the drills In the well* use oil as fuel. Kvery three Hnd a half barrels of this oil Is equal to one ion of coal. This Is selling on the grounds for 60 cents a gallon. June 1 the wells of this property will begin to be de veloped. CRAZED BY RELIGION. f srpenter Named Green Found at Thunderbolt In Demented Con dition.

WHITE, ville star, writing us from Philadelphia on Dec. 26, 1900, thus tells of his experi ence with Duffy s Pure Malt Whiskey: "After having had Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey recommended for various ail ments by a score of doctors, from Maine to California, I decided to be my own physician (saving the expense of the doc tor’s advice), and have not beer, without it for the past live years. It keeps me free from coughs and colds; it brings re freshing sleep after a hard day’s work.’’ Mr. White’s experience is similar to the experiences of thousands who write us daily. Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey cures con sumption, general debility, la grippe, colds, 'bronchitis, malaria, low fever, dys pepsia, depression an (I weakness from whatever causes. It builds up and nour ishes the body, it invigorates the brain, tones up the heart and prolongs life. It is the only whiskey taxed by the govern ment as a medicine. This is a guarantee.

Judge Norwood held his weekly criminal session yesterday morning and dispensed justice to the usual crowd of petty crim inals that confronts him on these occa sions. The budget was rather extensive and some additions were sent out to join the county c'hain-gang. Among them was a hegro woman, Car rie Richards. She was up before Judge Norwood on a charge of larceny from the person. Neal Sapp, a visitor at Carrie’s place of residence, complained that she had gone through his clothes and relieved him of the custody of about S2O. As Neal was not anxious to be relieved of this par ticular responsibility, he made a howl that resulted in the woman's arrest. Yesterday the prosecuting witness sub stantiated his c'harges to the satisfaction of Judge Norwood and the defendant was ordered to,stand up. preparatory to hav ing sentence passed upon her. Judge Norwood said she would have either to pay SSO and costs into the registry of the court or stay out on the gang, helping to perfect the sanitary system of the county, for the next twelve months. Without moving from her tracks, Car rie emitted a screech that could have been heard for blocks. This she followed with another and another, varying the performance by wild laughter that caused the hair of the spectators to stand on end. More howls, more laughter and more disturbance followed, and then Judge Norwood directed that the woman be removed from the court room. She went and a crowd followed her, and the shrieks and howls were kept up un til the jail was reached and the woman was put In a cell. Then, when she saw that she no longer had a sympathetic au dience. her outcries ceased with as much suddenness as they had begun. James Washington was sentenced to two terms on the gang, aggregating eighteen months. He was charged with obtaining goods under false pretenses and with downright theft and found guilty of both offenses. J. C. Athen, a negro boy who had lifted 75 cents from the till of a Greek fruit dealer, was sentenced to pay a fine of sls and costs or spend six months on the chalngang. Robert Woods was charged with stab bing not in his own defense. He had carved Alonzo Graham painfully and un necessarily, Judge Norwood thought, and for this offense he was sent to the gang for half la year. Similar sentences were assessed in other cases. TAKEN FOR ST. LOUS' MAYOR. lint St. Louis Ladles Declared P. J. O'Connor a Handsomer Man. P. J. O'Connor, Esq., recently elected president of the Catholic Knights of America, by the St. Gouts Convention, was taken for the Mayor of St. Louis the other day. A lady who has visited Sa vannah but who Is now living in St. Louis, was a member of the committee to entertain the visiting ladies of the con vention. Mr. O'Connor was pointed out to her at the Southern Hotel, and just at that time a couple of St. Louis ladies walked up to him and one of them said: "Mr. Mayor, 1 must claim the honor of shaking hands with you; my lit tie boy wears your colors." Mr. O'Connor was somewhat mystified, but'straightening up and putting on his best smile,replied that the honor was his. Of course he realized that there had been a mistake, but he did not know that he had been taken for Mayor Wells of St. Louis. When the ladles discovered their error, one of them said: "X am sorry X mistook you for our mayor, for since I have seen him 1 owe you an apology; you are certainly a far handsomer man."

Dr. Marks Levi of Baltimore Is In Sa vannah In the Interest of the Zionist movement, and will address a mass meet ing to-day on that subject. This meeting will be at 4:30 o’clock at the Synagogue B'Nal B'rlth Jacob. Dr. Levi Is widely traveled, an excel lent linguist, and without doubt will make an interesting address.

Leopold, keeper of records nnd seals for the Grand LiOilge, Knights of Pythias, has just completed his report which he will submit at the thirty-sec ond annual meeting of that body, which begins Tuesday In Brunswick. With the one exception of the year 1891, it Is the best report that has ever been made to the. Grand Lodge. It shows 13 new lodges have been es tablished since the last report, and that there are now in the state 111 subordinate lodges, the membership of which amounts to 7,213. That the finances of the order In Georgia are In an excellent condition, too, is shown by the fact that these lodges have on hand $62,489.98, while the Grand Lodge has on hand $3,515.32. During the year ending May 21, there were 1.146 Initiations, as compared with only 986 the year before.

To Enjoy an Ocean Trip. There is a strong tendency nowadays on the part of experienced ocean travelers to avoid the overcrowding and corresponding inconveniences of record-breaking steam ships, and to seek accommodations where the voyage cai} be made in perfect tran quility and freedom from all excitement. The change is very noticeable this sea son, and together with the attractions of the great Glasgow Exhibition, Is giving the Anchor Line more than usual promi nence. It is considered the ideal line for persons seeking the mpst lasting benefits of the Ocean Cure and seems to be mak ing a distinct following of its own. The Anchor Line is one of the oldest in the Atlantic passenger service. Its steam ships are commodious and among the staunchest afloat. The rule of the com pany is to provide for the individual com fort of each passenger, so that proper en joyment of the voyage Is assured. The low rates of the Anchor Line are another great factor in its maintained popularity. An illustrated booklet can be had free by addressing the agents, Henderson Bros., 17 and 19 Broadway, New York.

Hoy Who Threw Hi,u- Kggn Finetl by Recorder Myrtck. "Bub" Dixon, a negro boy from the Westsl3e, was among the prisoners in Police Court yesterday morning, and Re corder Myrtck charged him $5 for the privilege. "Bub” had a collection of ripe hen fruit and started in to have some fun by pelting a man who chanced to pass his way. The citizen couldn’t see the joke, and called On a i>atro!man to arrest the boy with the bum eggs. Recorder Myrtck was unable to appreciate the Joke either, and “Bub’’ was forced to admit, after the fine had been announced, that there had been little fun in the gome that he had selected to play. The case against W. J. Britt was dis missed for want of prosecution. Britt was charged by his wife, a resident of the Tenderloin district, with having curs ed and assaulted her. For some reason the woman failed to materialize and the testimony of the arresting officer was not sufficient to warrant a conviction of any offense. Richard Dryer, cblored, was sentenced to serve thirty days on the chain-gang for tiring a pistol in the Plant System yards. He was also remanded for trial In the City Court on a charge of carrying con cealed weapons. Willie Brown, a negro woman well known on tile Eastside, was dis missed on a I'harge of stealing a watch and chain from a young white man. The prosecutor charged that he had been drinking and visited the wo man's house at an early hour in the morn ing. He forgot and left his gold watJh and chain in the place and when he re turned a few minutes later It could not be found. The woman stoutly denied the charge. The case was heard In private and in dismissing the woman Recorder Myrlok admonished her not to appear be fore him again. She has served several terms on charges of disorderly conduct. CITY BREVITIES. Morton's School for Boys held Its an nual picnic at Warsaw yesterday. The steamer Wilmington left Thunderbolt at 10 o'clock with nearly 300 on board. The day was a pleasant one, and was enjoy ably spent. The annual convention of the Southern Wholesale Grocers will be held In Mem phis, May 33. There are a number of Sa vannah firms' members of this organiza tion, and It Is quite likely that several gentlemen from this city will attend the meeting. The firemen are still at work on thb switch board at the Central station, and the "Big Duke" will not be in working order before the midijje of next week. The bell was struck with a hammer yesterday and the sound was clear and altogether satisfactory. The Sunday-school of 8t John's Church held its annual picnic at Tybee yesterday. The morning train carried down the most of the children, though many went down In the afternoon. The day was pleas antly spent on the beach by the children and their teachers and friends. Zeke Green, colored, was committed to jail yesterday on a warrant from Mag istrate Wickham's court, in which it Is alleged that the prisoner furnished liquor to a minor. It Is said Greene got a col ored boy drunk, although it Is understood the prisoner denies the charge that ha* been lodged against him.
