—The "Grippe" still continues to get 111
its work in Butler. It is a fever or blood
poisoning, due to a germ in the air. ami
that germ either originated, or found food
for its growth in the decaying vegetable
matter, the lcsult of our open winter. De
caying vegetatiou is a very dangerous
thing. Last spring nearly all the mem
bers of a certain family in this town were
down with typhoid fever, and the well
water was supposed to lie the cause of it,
hut we have since learned that the family
had cabbage stored in their cellar the pre
ceding winter. Some years ago a family
in one of the towns of Butler county, were
all taken down with dysentery, in mid
winter. The doctors of the town thought
that remarkable and instituted a search,
and found decaying cabbage iu the cellar,
and also that the family was throwing its
slops—its dish and wash water —where it
would drain into the well. The family
were making a suro thing of it, they were
poisoning both their air and water.

Oil Field Notes.
Tnere is but little new in the Butler Co.

Wells have been started on Ihe A. \V. and
Matthew Shannon and .1. <\ Brandon
farms.
Loekwotitl .t C'o's well on the Eiebolll
started oIT at 20 barrels an hour and soon
increased to 30 barrel?, making it the best
gusher in I lie field
la.iig, Craham A (J<>. coinplct.-.l a well
on the Hy Wahl, Monday, that is estimated
at «0 barrels.
Forst & Co. completed a good well on
the John Staple's farm, Monday. Senator
Show alter is interested in this company,
which is also drilling on the Snow farm.
Gufi'y & Co. will complete two important
wells in the Gould field this week —one on
the David Lefuvre and the other on the
Wendell Hiekcy.
A. Fieeger has leased 700 acres three
miles northeast of Oneida Station, and will
drill a test well on the Sylvanns Aggas
farm. McFarland, of Pittsburg, has 400
acres leased along tho Muddyereek and ha
located a well on the John Raker farm.
The new pipe line of the Standard Oil
Co., from Thorn Creek Junction to Bear
Creek, will be about thirty miles long. It
is being built of heavy 0-inch pipe that
probably cost about 75 cents a foot, which
would make the entire cost about $125,000.
The Sewerage Question.
Mr. George E. Waring, the sewerage ex
pert, was in Butler last Saturday, and with
three members of the Council took a look
over the town. Then the Council met and
gave him the job of making plans, peciti
cations and estimates of the cost of a
system of sewerage for tin! town, his fee to
be $250, and $lO a day while working on
the plans—about SSOO iu all.
Mr. Heydrick and his son agreed to mark
the elevations on a plot of the borough for
sls a day, and said it would take them
from ten to fifteen days, and were given
that job.
Air. Waring's plan will consist of a two
foot pipe from t he outlet, either at the Fair
Grounds riffle or a point just below the
island, to a point somewhere near the
crossing of Chestnut and W. (May Sts.,
with pipes of various sizes diverging from
that point to drain the northern part ol the
town; and for the eastern and southern
part there will be an 8 inch iron pipe along
the creek to the Frceport bridge, anil a 12
inch pipe around the creek below the
bridge. No estimate has yet been made of
the probable cost.
