GENERAL Br TIER addressed large audience
at froEincetOwn, Mass, last night on the fish

England, Gen. Butler said that the Washington
Treaty, with the sense of wrong and iuiuTv II
would brig upon the people. was more likely 10
produce war within ten years than any other
question. The democratic party press either
hld not get hold of it, or they were more occu-
pea IN trying TO cover up the kuklux down

His descendants now petition the legislature
for a division of the lands in question. The
bill authorizes the appointment by the Or

ment of shares as they may think just and
equitable having to value aud the location

1t also provides that these shares or allot-
ments may be sold by the owners to any of

The excitement over the new well near
Reno, on the Milton farm, appears TO be on
the Increase, and operators and speculat ora
are crowding in there 10 such an extent that
board and lodging cannot be furnished them
and visitors either have to ''carry their lod-
der in havsrsack'' strapped to their backs,
or risk the chance OF going hungry. Yes
terday, Messrs. Hess, Patterson & Dickey,
OF Petroleum Centre, sold an undivided
one-lourth Interest in the Gbbens farm, to
hessrs. Vera & Blake, OF Petroleum Cen
tre, for the snug little sum of $40, 900. The
Gibbens farm adjoins the Milton farm, and
contains 100 acres. The plan for new oil
town has already been laid on; on this farm,
md yesterday and to-day ''corner lots" have
been in active demand, the owners OF The

Tor building purposes. The foundation TO,
large hotel is being dug, aud the building
vii! he np in few days. Our townsm en-,
Mr.. IL. G. Wachter, is about to open gro

KcnyOn,s New Double Acting
Oil FUmp for Pumping Oil or
Waieri i'm Wcep Wells.

Kenyon's New Double Acting Oil Pump
in acknowledged to be the best pump now
10 use. One OF is leading features is that
it not only producrs u contiau uous flow of
oil or other finid but that it creates aud
snstains constant and powerful suction,
by means OF which the seams or veins of the
well are in great measure cleared OF para
dne and other obstructi Ons, aud the oil in
the veins is drawn towards the well. 1t
has been ascertsined by actual test that the
use OF this pump causes graduaily lncreas-
ing flow Of oil. 1t is well known by oil
operatore that this improvement is of great
value, and one that has been long sought
for. The abl4st mechanics Of our country
have for years been at work trying to find
out some new and untred plan to prolong
the life time of an oil we'll; uDd nothing yet
TO onr knowledge has been brought before
the public that in any way equals the power
ot the Kenyon Pump, experience having
taught that it is tue long continued sue
tion that has the power TO keep up and in
crease the production of oil wells. Oil
operators are referred to Mr.. Geo. Boulton,
Superintendent of the Columbia Farm, for
Information in regard to the practical work
ings OF the Kenyon Pump. We append the
fol blowing test imouial from the maGagers OF
the Columbia Farm:
