People who are doctopng themselves for the disease, are all taking quinine, a tonic extracted from the bark of a South American tree. The physicians however are prescribing auti pyrine, a patented medicine, made in Gcr niauy, from coal tar. it seems strango that wo have to go to Brazil and (iermany for medicines, substitutes for which are likely on and in our native hills, if we only knew them, and the tact that, we do go abroad for them to the extent of millions of dollars every year suggests that the elements of botany, geology and chemis try be taught iu our public schools. A lit tle knowledge of these subjects would lead to many an accidental discovery. —And now another paper is at it. The "Religions Editor" of the Pittsburg F.cadrr —it will.astonish some people to learn that the Leodir has a religious editor—wants you to vote for tbe most popular pastor in Western Pennsylvania, the terms and prizes being about the same that the Pitts burg Turns is offering in the school teacher contest. The same paper wants you to guess at the population of your town, and offers a prize of s."> for the nearest gue •, the coupon tickets to be cut from the paper. The other Pittsburg papers are yet to he heard from in this brain cracking game, but if they intend entering it we stipge that a prize be offered to the one who can guess the exact location of McGinty, the color of his wig, the shade of his dad , or what he has been doing since he went to the "bottom of the say." —An exchange says that when crema tiou comes to be the fashion, we shall be able to do up our obituaries iu something like this style: February 3, 188!), Crc- ) November 25, 1010, M atcd. April 17, 1000, Crcui- A Novel Contest. The race around the world between "Nellie Bly" of the New York fTorl<l. (M Pink Cochran of Armstrong Co.) and Mi-- lllizabeth Bisland of the "Cosmopol itan Magazine" is attracting considerable attention. Miss Cochran traveled East ward, and Mi-s Bisland, Westward. Mi-~ Bisland started from New York for San Francisco, eight hours after Mi-s Cochr.iu left for Europe in a steamer, and -lie wa.- inaking the best time until she missed a fast steamer, that was waiting for her at one port and had to go further aud take a slower steamer. She is now on the, Bothnia, five days out from Liverpool. Miss Cochran arrived at San Francisco, on the Oeeauica, Monday, and as the I'n ion Pacific K. 11. is blockaded by snow, had to take the Southern Pacific route which will delay her two days. Both therefore have met with misfortune at the ends of their routes, but if either arrives at New York by next Sunday, it will proYe that one can now go around the world in le*s than 75 days. The record of the race, however, will have to be kept by hours, as Miss Cochran lost a day traveling, cast ward; and Miss Bisland gained a day traveling westward. Property Notes. W. S.

During service iu the Presbyterian Church of Butler last Sunday, the follow ing persons were admitted to membership on certificate, Beriah Moon, wife and son. of Prospect; Isaac Andrews, and wife, of Brown&dalc; Miss Mary E. W. Smith, of Phila.; Mrs. Ida Brand berg, of Titusville; Mrs Gussie Wick, of Grove City; and Mrs. C. N. Boyd, of Butler. The following were admitted on examination: Dr. Bip pus, Maggie Graham, Anna White, Thos. l.owry, Miss Sink, Mrs. Cash more, Ella White and Lizzie Atkcu*. Seven were admitted lo same church on *crtificate two weeks ago. Mrti. Annie .fenness Miller, the wo man's dress-reformer, has invented a new kind of a dress which she styles the "divided skirt." The name is adopted doubtless, from modesty, ttie "divided skirt" being nothing more nor less than a pair of pantaloons in full bloom with some slight modifications. Mrs. Miller considers the drc ■; of women a nuisance for the rea-on that they prevent freedom of ac tions, particularly in climbing over barbed wire fences, aud through her magazine and platform lectures she has succeeded iu con vineing a number of women throughout the United States that her position is tin correct one. Mrs. Miller also claims that with the adoption of the new stylo of dress women could cease to cramp their waists with corsets, and would soon become just as proud of a good healthful girth as men. Well, this is an age of progress, aud if the women want to adopt a new style of dre*.-. why should the men kick? And in case they do, women clothed in their "divided skirts" would be in shape to kick back. The Markets. BUTI.KR MABKBTK.

The surprise ol the Hundred- Foot field j during the past week wa- the produce! struck on the M int Humphrey farm, con J iderably east of other producers. A soon as the drill cracked the shell of the sand last Thursday evening the well bogau llowing and as no tankage was up. the oil ran to waste till next day. On Mou day the well was making 10 bids an hour, and on Tuesday -1. A little drilling Tuesday night, brought 10 bbls an hour, making it the best well in that field, as it is but ten leet in the sand. The well is owned by ("has. and John llazlctt, J. P McJnnkin, I»r. Pnrvianee, Nelson liced and Mr. Holland. The have eighty more acres in that vicinity leased in which I»r. Xeymaii also, has an interest. It is not known yet, whether or not tin well on the J. S. Hays farm will make a paying producer. They found about .-uty feet of splendid sand, but il was too close to allow of the oil flowing freely. All the way up from Allegheny County, the pay streaks and close streaks run in nearly a north and south line, anil it. looks as though there was a close streak east of the Cable well, and another cast of the Hum phrey. though several small wells have been struck on the close streaks. The Cable well is reported to In- doing •'.O bbls a day. The (iolden it Co. well on the Xesbit is reported good for 100 bbls. The Phillips well on the Win. Doutbett farm. Glade Pun district, continues to be the largest well in the county. It is yet doing 2-"i bbls an hour. The Grazier A Co. well on the John Martin farm, near Callery Junction is re ported good for 40 bbl The llartman well on the Staples is pat at 70 bbl . At Great Pelt, a strong vein of gas was tapped on the Win. Stehlo farm, Monday, which stopped drilling for a few days, and Phillips got a dry hole on the Parr. The Snee A Co. well near Mnrrinsville was torpedoed last is reported at 10 bbls. The Wilson farui well near Zelicnople i not yet completed, nor the well on the Jacob Endres. The Logue Xo. 3, near Coylesville i- put at i"» bbls. Otto Liniberg, P. 11. Morse and a Mr. Mitchell expect to complete their well on the Sam'l Miller, near Jamisonville Station next week Partner A Co. are drilling a well on the limiting farm, near Jefferson Centre, the Jefferson Oil Co. on the Cal. Logan, and Hatty A Co. on the Loyal Welsh. The Crazier well, Martin farm, stopped flowing Tuesday. It was drilled Tuesday three, bits in excellent hnndred-l'oot sand and will be tubed with three-inch tubing and pumped before drilling to tl • second pay streak. The MeXeal farm well is 42 feet in the hundred-foot sand, with no oil jet. The Allsop farm well, northeast of Uak erstown, will be torpedoed in the hnndred foot sand. .VOTES. Thos. Graham of Connoijuenessing twp. got SI,OOO bonus from Hnzlctt A Co. for 20 acres. In several places the drillers after oil or gas, while failing to get what they were after, have found something else equally valuable. The other day a shaft at Yin ccnues, Intl., went through a splendid four-foot vein of coal at a depth of3oo feet. The city went wild over the strike, which is of the greatest importance in a section where fuel is such a big item. Excellent vein®of alt have been struck in somi lo calities. Aid now an Ashtabula paper re ports that in a well near there pota-h was found at a depth of 1,000 feet, and adds: '•The .miy potash wells in operation in the world are in Germany, and there is a heavy duty on the product, which w ill make the find very valuable."

A 1"' tin' corner of Sixth Avenue and Wood street, probably familiar to many of our readers—not. how c cr. because part of it is occupied by a saloon—was sold the other day for tl 000 a front foot for 38 feet, and the lot t - only 00 feet deep. The present building will be torn away to give place to an eight or ten story ofliee building. Another lot, :;.i by <>o feet, at the corner of Fourth and Wood, was sold last week for SI4OO a trout foot, and it is said that STiOoO a foot has been ofTered for the corner opposite the post office. A real estate boom ha- nin progress in Pittsburgh for some time. A man named llolsopple, residing near Greenfield, made six gallon - of maple -yr up about the first of the year. A case which in exciting no little inter est is on trial in Clarion. It involves a question that has uever been before pre seated to the courts of the Common wealth.
