Well News.
What is known as the Sam Armstrong wl,
on the Marshall place alonir Thorn Crik,
reached the ihlrd sand last Thursday, and »n
Friday made some small flows. Early Satr
day morning, while there was no one at >e
well, the rig took fire and wax destroyed. Em
ber was sent out that afternoon, the rig wilbe
rebuilt immediately aud drilling will piobaly
be continued to-day or to-morrow. The hie
is full of salt water, but if the flow of gasn
creaae* it will clear it. The sand is said tif.e
good, aud the owners are expecting a laje
well. The well flows every half hour, an at
each flow discharges from 1 to 2 barrels obi I
with the salt water, which is, at presentil
lowed to run to waste. There is every India
tion of a large well.
The well owned by Reibe;-, Campbell nd
others, on the Hazlett farm, south-west of twn
and near the Cooper well on the Pearcc frm,
reached the stray sand on Monday eveningind
will be completed this week.
The Bauer farm well should reach the aud
by the first of next week.
Agnew s No. 2, on the Green farm, wil lie
completed in a few days.
Keep & Sutton's well, on the Kesscllian
farm, near St. Joe, will be in by the 4th. Sine
oil was obtained iu the third sand and the
hole filled up 800 feet.
The oil market ou Monday broke from 0 to
60, when the news of the flays aud Garland
strike, near Warren, came in, and the maket
will probably go to 50, although (he repor for
iftMt week in very 4< lju] 1 iHli," com parati ely
very few wells being drilled and rigs builung.
A Tremendous Gas Well.
At a depth of 11 0' i feet the second sandwas
reached at the Beed well, on the Jo*. Cri well
place, in Butler township, last Thursday ceri
ing, and the well immediately began to low
gas heavily. The drillers Yeagel aud Miler,
continued drilling until they were two feit iu
the sand, by which time the flow of gas wa so
heavy they had to desist. Some six-inchca*-
Ing was arranged to run the gas ofr fron the
well a rod or so, aud on Friday it was ignicd,
and now lights up the country at nigh>for
miles around. The well is located in the 10I
low, through which flows Bean's run, anl as
there is a high bill between it and Butle*, it
is not seen here as plainly aa it otherrixe
would, but it is a large gas well, as lar(K an
either of the wells struck on the Dully firm,
near St. Joe, ten years ago, The gas ruibes
through the six inuh casing and the flane is
the largest we have ever seen coming fr«m a
well. Another effort was made to drill ou
Saturday morning but was given up, a> the
heavy iron bailer could not be forced cbwu
the hole. Of course the tools could lie run
down and drilling be continued through the
sand, allowing the gas to keep the hole clear,
but then they would have to stop, This well
is two miles or less, directly south of tht cen
tral part of the town. It would cost soma
money to rut| the gus to Itutler, raoru or less
#j.cordlug to the si*c of the pipe used, but
tfiere is enough gas there to run a hundred
glass works of the size of the oue now located
here. Beed has four more rij;s up and build
llitf ip that viciniiy~-one oach on the Samuel
Hbatl'ner, John ShafTiier, Frank Cook and
Brown places, and drilling will begin at the S.
Hhafluer well this week.
Struck by Lightning.
A ;ffic thunder stormjpassed over Western
Penr>ania and Eastern Ohio last Tuetday,
daimjr much property, and kil'iug several

in l»r, shortly after noon of that day, a
tree ie lot of Dr. Johnston, the dentist, on
was struck, the hemp clothes
line tl ed to it cut off, and Mrs. Benninger,
is almost 100 feet d-stant f om the
tree Tendered insensible bv the B hock for
souitars. Mrs. Cyrus Anderson, whose
homelmost 300 feet from the tree, and who,
at thiie, was taking dry clothes from a rue
talic.*, received a severe shock. Five years
ago jrge wild-cherry tree in Purvis' field
near was struck bv lightning and pieces
wciap fifteen pounds thrown oyer 200 feet.
A sea fcolt, soon after, strrck the stable of
I Mr. -ris, the tobacconist, who lives H the
| Storoperty, on the flat west of town. It
strume corner of the stable and shattered
it, tisought the other corner and running
dowit the rope by which a calf was tied to
the icr post, but did not injure either the
calfi horse near by it. The calf, however,
waslly scared, and ran around the yard as
thotthe Old Nick was alter it. Another
boltnck the brick bouse of Mrs. William
Mii.on Main street, shattered a chimney,
andining down through the house did con
sidde damage. This was the extent of the
da irt done here, but outside of the town and
in tsounty, the large barn of Mrs. A. Baker,
of erson township, was struck, set on fire
amtilly destroyed, together with grain, hay,
farrnachinery, wagons, etc., the live stock
aloieiog saved. Some telegraph poles are
als«d to have been shattered. At Murrays
viliWestmoreland county, a boy named
Wend four hcrses were struck by lightning
anetantly killed. A younger brother of
thqr was badly burned. At Waynesburg,
pa,iss Josie Keener and \\ illiam Paver
weser:ouslv injured by a lightning bolt,
wh also killed three horses. At Corrv, Pa.,
se\l head of blooded stock belonging to
He Case were killed. At Salem, 0., Miss
Mie Westphar, aged 16, while standing in
th»-jrway, was struck by lightning and kill
initly. " At Yoongstown, 0., lightning
stc the residence of Abner Meadsker, kill-
ings daughter Minnie and seriously injuring
seal other members of the family. Ihree
ba were also destroyed near oungstown.
Aewcomerstown, 0., the storm was accom
pgd by a furious tornado, which uprooted
tr, blew down fences, and did great damage
bßin< .. . i
. other parts of the country that same day
tstorm caused dispster and death. George
loks' house in Grant, Clark county, Wis.,
i strvck by lightning, and his daughter
e, sixteen years of age, was killed, and
Sher daughter named Cora was stunned.
' i house was burned to the ground, but Cora
ciled from the burning timbers and was
sll. The body of Effie was found with the
ai and legs burned off. The mother and
far of the children were at a circus. At
llfield Springs, N. Y., a man named Waffle
sfed with a load of lumber for Springfield,
a when about three miles from the village a
hof lightning knocked down one of his
tees and a second one killed hitn instantly.
1 horse finally recovered and got up, and
t team took the wagon to the home of his
ier, where it drew up in front of the door.
'i hands of the dead man still grasped the
f lines. The fluid appears to have run
lund his body, and then jumped to the
(und, which it tore up for several feet.
• —The many friends here of Mr. C. N. Payne
' il rejoice to hear that he has resumed busi
'• is, and that his embarrassment was but tem
-0 rary. The Oil City Blizzard says: "The
lt lure of Mr. Payne to get his sheet through
l ' e clearing house was not due to the lack of
8 ;ans, but to a lack of ready cash. Mr.
yne is represented by a friend as having
1 0,000 worth of property which would have
en easily convertible in ordinary times,
it just when in a pinch he wanted a few hun
ed dollars in cash he couldn't get it. Of
urse, when the true condition became known
1 oney was forthcoming, but that did not pre
e >nt the report of his failure."
f A Good Hand-Book.
J We have received from Prof. J, A. Cooper,
' f the Edinboro State Normal School, his new
'and-book and catalogue of the school. It
' ontains many valuable suggestions on educa
t ion and mind culture, a history of normal
1 chools in general and of the Edinboro Normal
'n particular, with course of instiuction, ac
count of apparatus, cabinet collections, library
•»nd the many other advantages of the school.
'Among the names of students we find the fol
lowing from this county: Maggie Allen,
■Whitestown; E. H. Coulter, Six Points; L. M.
Wise, Harmony; Salina Boyd, Petrolia; Mat
tie Brown, Harrisville; Maggie Crawford, Pe

Scott, Fairview; James C. Boyles, Jacksville;
