The Schiedemantle well, at Bald
ridge, is ten feet in the sand, with eleven hun
drcd feet OF fluid in the hole. There is no
water, as has been reported. The well has
filed up slowly. The sand is white and Of
good quality, at least it il so called by those
who are familiar with the rock in that region.
From present indications the well will settle
toa twenty barrel producer. II will start lar
or, but cannot be expected to hold to much
above twenty or twenty five barrels. Later
Later news from the Schiedemantle well are
still more favorable. 1t will be a good. well,
producing probably from two to three hundred
barrels per day. s

The Parker Ph4niE of last week
says that the excitement over the suspension of
the bank ragged hot until about Monday night
of this week, since which time people have
curbed their tongues. There were two parties
in particular who used most abusive and wick
ed threats, subjecting themselves to arrest and
imprisonment. Should any accident occur to
the parties belonging to the bank they would
most certainly be spotted. No man has
right to threaten the life Of another, nor has he
the right of carrying concealed weapon de-
claring he would shoot on sight. We were
surprised that the man was not arrested and
placed under bonds to keep the peace, at least.

There is and has been for long
time Just complaints as to the pavements of
Main street, this place. As general thing
they are uneven, irregular ana Win DricKs
out here and there. Strangers walking on
them by night may stumble, or be jolted and per-
haps thrown from their feet. Even our own
citizens walk with difficulty at night. There
are loose bricks, or bricks out entirely and
holes here and there on both sides of our Main
street. This should not be. They should be
made regular and level on every square and the
Town Council for the credit of our town should
so order it. Other towns have level, smooth
pavements, and Butler should have the same
both for the comfort of its citizens as well as
for that of strangers.
