Fields, &c.
The principal features of the years
work in oil circles arc the discovery Of the
Allegheny field. the decline in the Bradford
field, and the failures of numerous wild
cat vetures. On the first of January, 1881,
there were 1923 rigs up and wells drilling.
OF this number 755 were confined to the
Bradford field. At that time the opera
tions in the northern district we're con-
fined principally to the Bingham lands and
the Moody tract, which each month added
hundreds of large producing wells SO the
completed list. A comparison of tue work
on these two prolific tracts between Jan.

THE fashion of New Year calls and
lavish entertainments has well-nigh run
itself to death in New York, and OH Mon
day it was noticed that the usual compli-
ments of the season were paid almost en-
tirely by gentlemen sending their cards,
which were received in baskets at the
front door. The postmen delivered great
numbers of small envelopes containing
cards. Private dwellings all over the city
burst out into a Towering Of baskets. A
stroll down any of the brownstone blocks
showed that New Years calls had fallen
in disrepute. Two houses out of every
three had basket on the door bell or at
tached to the knobs. There were baskets
at Mr.. William H. Vanderbilt's and Mrs.
A. T. Stewards, and fancy vase stood in
the vestibule of Mrs. Astor's residence.
In many instances every house in a block
had basket out. The baskets were of
all shapes and sizes, some with lids and
some without. Most of them were tied
with bright blue ribbons, though other
colors were not wanting. When tied
with black ribbons, as was done in many
instances, it was plain why the family did
not receive.

A Strange Incident.


A strange incident happened to Mr..
}. W. Snap, of Jasper, Tenn. while
in Spartanburg, s. g., last Friday
night. On that night about IL
o'clock he awakened his wife, who
was with him, shouting at the top of
his voice that their house was on fire.
She jumped out of bed, but could see
no fire, and discovered that her hus-
band was only dreaming, and finally
persuaded him there was nothing
wrong. He said that he dreamed
he was at home in jasper, and that
his home was burning. Nothing
more was thought of it until they
reached Chattanooga Thursday morn
ing, when they were informed that
their house caught fire on last Friday
night at IL o'clock, and came near
being destroyed. Mr.. Snap then re-
minded his wife of his dream. He is
gentleman of unquestioned veracity,
and is not given to superstition. It is
certainly very strange occurrence.

st. Louis Globe Democrat: The
official enumeration of saloons through
out the various STATES for the years
1881 and 1882, as compiled by the
Census Bureau at Washington, shows
a somewhat astonishing difference be-
tween the Northern and the Southern
States in the matter of their increase
and decrease. La the Southern States
there has been marked decrease,
and in the Northern some what less
marked increase. For instance, in 49,
81 Alabama had 2, 076 saloons,
while in 1882 she had only 1901.
Arkansas fell during the year from
!, 437 to 855; Georgia from 2,517 to
2,151; Tennessee from 1856 to L.
933. On the other hand, Kansas
rose from 1,l72 TO 400; Maine from
$50 to 618; Michigan from 1857 to
5000; Minnesota from 2,510 to g.
1913; Wisconsin from 4,086 to 5,275.
Again. South Carolina fell from L.
0S5 to TIA, while Vermont rose from
400 to 426. There are some excep-
tions to the rule, of course. but they
are not numerous. If these figures
are correct, and there is no reason
why they should not be, they will
serve to correct some erroneous ideas
that are prevalent with respect to the
effect of temperance laws in the va.
rious states.

red!at Caldwell last Friday where
in the Marshal, Geo. Brown, was
shot through the head by a cow
boy, and instantly killed. 1t
seems two cow boys were raising
a disturbance in a dance house
and when the marshal attempted
to d1sarm one of them, the other
placed the muzzle of his revolver
to Browns head and fired, blow
ing his brains out. The men
then mounted their horses and
struck out for the Territory. A
posse was soon organized and
started in pursuit, but at last ac-
counts there was little probabil-

The assessments of the present year
will add to the reasons already existing for
a revision of the tax laws. The whole
system Of property taxation is vicious,
and as our penal system is extending, tax
alton of property will grow more vicious.
Our external government is becoming too
costly, and property won't stand the bur
den if it can escape. Ultimately the state
will confiscate the property which cannot
escape.
