OIL IN WAIIUISNI
TUE BEATTV WELL A BLOWER!
As wo hnvo already elated, Mr.
David Ucatty cotnmcoced eiukiog a well
just Lack of his residence across the
Cooewango, about four weeks ago. lie
is n gentleman of largo means, keen
business sagicity, great energy, and con
siderable experienco in tho oil business.
His operations have been carried on in
Deerfield township and the lower oil re
gions whetc he lias becu uniformly suc
cessful. He started this well wilh the
purpose of making a thorough test of
this territory, It ho didn't get oil, it
wos probably ho niiht get gas, which
would be very dcsirnblo in his fiue new
residence. I Jo iutended to go down
1200 feet at letist nnd pet experienced
men to work for that purpose.
The indications were all favorable
from the start. On Friday, tho 12th
iust., considerable oil had been brought
up in tho Faud pump, but they were
down only (UO feet mid expected to go
lower. JJut some time during Friday
night it began to blow iu earnest. How
long it flowed no ono knows. 5ut it is
certain that some ten or fifteen barrels
of oil were thrown out. Wo went over
to see it on Saturday. Mr. 15catty
went down to Tidioute for tubing, etc.,
in the iiiorniug, nnd the hands were not
at wot k. The fires were all out. The
oil was scattered all over tho derrick
clear to the lop, some 70 feet. The
house over the well and all the surround
ings were completely plastered nnd
saturated, and the oil stood in puddles
on the ground alter several barrels had
been secured. It was also scafered
over the snow in the direction tho win 1
blew, for ten or fl'tcon rods, showing
that it must have been no fool of n
shower. The drill weighing several
hutiuicd pounds was left standing on n
board over tlm well when the workmen
(jtiit at night. In tho nicruiug it was
found to have been thrown several feet
and the tools were scattered around pvo
mkcuously, indicating a strong loree of
gas, when the blowing fit was on. Dur
ing tfaturduy it was quiet with indica
tions of another blow up nt any time
Satuiday night and Sunday night it.
flowed again apparently more than be
fore. O! eouro at this writing we can aivp
no final resn't cf this experiment. V.:e
go to press on Monday and the well will
net be tube-! or pumped till some time
this TTrfk. V.'e be'.iev?, however, that
it a first rate show. In

it isn't he-t to count our chiikens be
fore thy are hatched. By next week
we can probably toll more about it.
A 'it .in years ng.i or so a well rns
put down hail' a mile below this one,
near the c ivercd bridga. Some oil was
found, but it was never well manured ar
thoroughly tcstrd. It is fortunate that
this one is iu the hands cf such a man
as Mr. Ueatty who understand- the bu-i-ne.-s
and will test it thoroughly. ',Ve
can ret assured that if there is oil here
he will fin 4 it before Iu s! ir.s. J;"--rui

lii'HC-LAKY. La-t Friday ni.uht the
biliard salocn of lien. Uhines, was en
tered by a back window, and about
'orty dollar's worth of cigirs, a gold
watch woitii eighty five (h ilars, and
fifteen or twenty doilui.s iu rnonrv.
taken. It is evident that the party do
ing the deed was well acquainted with
tho premises. The back window was
lowered from tho top, and iho thieves
after breaking open the money drawer,
and lighting tho pieces by the stove to
see how to proceed, closed tho stove up
all right, and thou unlocked the back
door with tho key left in the door. It
would be a good thing fur some of these
chaps to bo caught, and punished in ac
cordance with their deserts. There is
strong suspicion of the parties doing
the afeove, and they frill likely ere long

It is estimated that, as tho laws of
New York allow a defendant in a suit
to address the jury on his own behalf,
and as ISeecher's friends aro not satis
ficd that bis counsel, with Iho exci-ptin
ofLvarts, are a malch for Tillon's
has been decided that Betcher shall
avail himself of the legal privilege, tak
tho floor and address the jury. Should
this bo correct, the speech will bo one
of the most mcmorablo aud interesting
on record.
A wolf was lately seen in Potter

posed to raise on? hundred dollars, to be
paid to the lucky captors, who arc to
have any additional bounty now fixed

if Iho animal is caught, to stuff the
nkin and send it to Iho Centennial as n
contribution from Potter. With
bounty on his head Iho days of Hone

our hunters can then afford to spc

The solons of the Indiana Legislature
seem lo have acquired some of the tricks
of former legislators of Pennsylvania
particularly that interesting feat of
legerdemain kuown as stealing bills.
Some time since the Houso passed a bill
reducing tho number and remuneration
of prison directors, and sent the same
to the Senate. The bill having very
mystciiously disappeared form the files
of the body, tho House suspended the
rules ar.d passed a similar measure by
an overwhelming majority. The State
Senate has bad occasion also lo appoint
committee on stolen bills, and also
make tho abstraction of bills a felony.
Is it any wonder the Indiana Legisla
turn failed lo pass the necessary appro
priaticn bills 1 1 secure the administra
tion of Slate affairs for tho current year?
The members were too busy watching
and stealini; each other's bills. An
extra session ot me legislature lias

Democratic Legislatures this year have
