The twat of the work of eseaystiny

done under the supervision a • man w
from Iiia youth has brew engaged In the
ci

teen years he began coitrecting . n his
.own behalf, with sometimes a go.vg of
thirty men under hint. During the past
few years he has utilized about two mil-
lion feet a lumber in kerbing and fully
thirty tees of nails in the same work.
When "tanking" is dune by steam, as is
generally the case, some sIStttett men are

is ratitur too intricate to describe from
beginning to end, but the mode of coon
carting the crude into refined is on much
the mine principle ea that by which dis-
tilled water is made Large "stills" bt It-
er shaped, are filled with oil in its crude
,tate, and beneath each still is • hot 6n
of tar or gas, that in ttuie noon a "light
vapor" to arise, shich to run off into
tsuks, constituting the chemical known
as "benzine," winch ns, h ;waver, subject
to further processes of purification be-
fore it is brought into general use. Af-
ter the light vapor passes off from the
crude, • heavier vapor is formed, which
is carried off from the stills through trun
pipes to the ''coudeu.e,s," These aro
lung w.wden tanks, box shaped, filled
wits cold water, through which the iron
pipes run. containing the vapor, and the
latter is by this process again restored to
liquid form taking the name of "refined
oil." Before it can be placed upon the
market 'or sale, it has to be subjected to
other courses of treatment in order to
make it safe tc, handle, and non -explos-
ive, up to a certain tempersteret It
takes about three barrels crude to make
one barrel refitted oil. Refined is at

gallon, according to report for the week
ending May 13.

It is no doubt thought by many. and n
without apparent good reason, that th
t it region would be a veritable hot bed
for the production of "fires," but strung
to say it is very seldom we are rutted
by anything in the shape of an erten
sive blaze. Our refineries do quite u[
get ablaze, and send forth dense velum
.of elate c .lured woke, which in th
daytime presents a magnificent appear
ance against the light colored heavens
We have two steam tire engines in tow
and one hand engine, two fire halls an
two companies, and judging by tb
manner in which they reach the seen
of a fire and subdue it, one natural)
concludes that no small amount of etti
ciency has been arrived at by the mem
ben of our protectors' corps Besides
this our refineries have applians o
their own ; which on the first alarm are
immediately brought into use, and i
rnore thantone instance hare done good
service in extinguishing what migh
.otherwise have proved a very distruc
tiro conflagration. On the American
side, that is, in the Pennsylvania oil re-
gion, much more danger from fire is in-
curred, coving to their tanks for storing
crude oil beiog constructed ah.ere instead
of under ground, and thunder storms
accompanied by lightning are often the
rause of much serious lou and damage,
in setting ablaze the c,tteuts of their
tanks which are only ton easily ignited.
Speaking of tires eccewrily leads on
t.. the question of waterworks, with
w
$ Very vital question indeed, as we are
depeudeut nearly ahogether on under•

the Western devalue (lrsnd Trunk, con-
neoting at Wyoming/ with Sarnia !trench

For our epir'itdsl adva lage and well
being we have churches of all the loading
three being situated on

west end and which are watered by (tear
Creek. Thus stream at tunes seems to
j possess considerable oft he "bull"el•aeut

the rainy ses•on, completely encircling
all the churches, oucaswually to the
depth of two or three feet, with those
situated on the lower portion of the hol-

betel called "The A alley of Dry Boned,"

Christians who cougregete there Sunday

The 24th was loyally celebrated here.
All day, our streets teemed with the
busy throng, and at night they were nut
deserted. The day's program, which
consisted of the usual sports, were fully
carried out, and a grand concert was
given as a final. The proceeds, which
were for the benefit of the bond, were
about M0.
On Sunday the Savage bas ander the

neighborhood was well represented, both
morning and afternoon. In the evening
Mr. Woodhull preached his farewell ser-

Bear ('reek is close at hand, but at cer-
tain seasons of the year it is almost a
bare creek also, along which a stream of
not doubtful impurity pursues its tier-
fiefilti(b coffee, carrying with it very
discernible traces of having passed
through oil territory. For household
uses and other purposes the majority I
tiara say of our inhabitants, are depen-
dent for thio supply of "Aqua pure' nn

designated, who makes daily trips with
his tank wagon dealing out w

In consequence of this lack ..f an un-
limited supply of hard water, rant or
soft water is trade good use of, almost
every house having one and
two wooden tanks close at hand in order
to receive the water, run 09 the build-
ings on the promises. Others have that
tank so arranged that the water is Alter-
ed as it us run in and by this means
becomes quite palatable and very well
adapted for conking. eta
