THE ARTISAN WELL. - Some time
ago we noticed the sinking of an Artesian
Well by the Galena Railroad Company,
near their machine shop on the West side.
The workmen are still engaged on this
important experiment, and have reached
depth of 220 feet. No signs of living
water have yet been discovered. The
last 80 feet through which the augur
has penetrated is composed entirely of a
stratum Of soft white marble, intermixed
with which Is a considerable quantity OF
iron. The progress made is now about
two feet per day, and strong hopes are en-
tertained of ere long meeting with a sat
isfactory result of the undertaking.
