Underlying the bituminous coal
anil slate OF Western Pennsylvania
there Is a porous rock OF but small
thickness charged with petroleum
gas. In certain localities it is only
necessary to tap this gas reservoir by
means OF an artesian well in order to
secure a supply of ready-made and
highly inflammable fuel. There is
quite a strife now going on in Pitts
burg for a monopoly of the privilege
of distributing this natural gas, by
pipes laid in the streets, to points
where it may be needed for domes-
tic or manufacturing purposes.

A dispatch from Susanville, says;
"a white man was found dead last
night in his cabin, about four miles
from Susanville, with his head sawed
off," A man who would let any one
saw his head off ought to die no easier
death.

Dawes on the Porter
Case.
Porter's cisloyalty in Refusing
to Obey Pope's Command.

The "Sentinel' says that the speech
OF Mr.. Dawes in opposition to the
bill for the relief Of Fitz John Porter
appeared in the Record of Monday
March 9Th. Mr.. Dawes would not
have attempted review of this thread
bare subject but for the fact that Gen.
Bragg's speech, printed on Friday,
contain an implied reflection upon the
Fifth Army Corps, Mr.. Dawes was
an officer of the Wisconsin Iron
Brigade, ranking next to Gen. Bragg
In the various grades of promotion.
He has too vivid recollection Of the
campaign Of 1862 in the vicinity OF
Bull Run to rest easy under the i'm
putation which Gen. Bragg throws
cut, that the Iron Brigade could not
have marched from Warrenton juno
ton B ristow Station because the night
of Aug. 20 was dark, and there were
mule trains in the way. Gen. Bragg
maintained that this was sufficient
excuse for Porter's disobedienca.
Gen. DAVIS contrasts Porter's perfsr-
nance, which Gen. Bragg says was
justified, with the march of the Iron
Brigade under orders from Govern
msnt at SpOttsylvania on the night of
May 13, 1864, and under the leader
ship of the same Gen. Bragg, and
says: The Wisconsin soldiers had
been under fire and engaged in des-
perate assaults upon the enemy for FIVE
consecutive days. On the night of
the 18th they were ordered to march
and take position to the left of Burn
sides corps. and be prepared to as
sault the enemy at o'clock the follow
ing morning There was a driving
rainstorm, the night was very dark,
tho roads exceedingly muddy, and the
men had to wade swollen streams in
which the water was three feet deep.
This was done after five days of battle
and 8 night of restless toll construct
ing oarthwprks. The record Of that
week of continuous fighting by day
and marching by night, ending with
the attack of the Iron Brigade upon
'Stonswall Jackson with FIVE times as
many men, on the morning of May ID,
has no parallel in history for heroism,
great bodily suffering and devotion to
the Union cause under the most dis
trsssiug circumstances. Gen. Bragg
marched that awful night of May Ii
at the head of our column. There are
others in this House who made this
terrible march. Hugh Lewis, of
Wisconsin, now an employe of this
House, whose arm is off at the
shoulder-joint, carried on that mid
night march his shattered arm,
destroyed in the fight. Ask him
whether soldiers could march on these
nights Ask the Que legged doorkeeper,
K Williams, also of Wisconsin, now
in attendance in your galleries, who
crawled over that road. coming safely
through, whether soldiers could march
on those nights"
Gen. Dawes speech is confined
almost entirely to arguing whether
Porter could have made the march
from Warrenton to Bristow Station on
the night of Aug. %, 1862 When
Gen. Bragg attempts to justify Porter
on this baby plea, knowing as he does
the record and achievements of the
Sixth Wisconsin, Mr.. Dawes says he
considers it an insult to the members
which is his duty to resent

That the five forties on sections 90
and 81, "a 4 are hard wood lands and
never had any whatever on them
and the taxes thereon are absolutely
void in the whole except the taxes of
1881 fer the reason that the land was
outside the town when the same was
assessed, the lands on section II, T %
r 4 east are stump lands and have
been SO for several years and were
grossly ovsr-valued. We represent
that all other taxes on the land are
now or will be paid, that We are willing
at all tunes to pay reasonable tax
without raising questions OF illegality
but that the foregoing are so grossly
unjust that We are compelled to ask
justice at your hands or apply to the
courts. The above statemest is with

if the interest was added. And by

A NEW THEATER.
The Park to BE Transformed Into a First
Class Variety and Sensational Theater.

There have been many rumors afoat recently
In regard to the probable future of the Park The
ter-none of them true. 1t remains for the Jour-
nal to state the facts. Yesterday afternoon the
Dickson Bros. closed lease for term of years
with the owners of the property, with the priv
ilege of conducting it as a first-class novelty
theater. This they intend to do, and will at once
commence the work of remodeling and refur-
nishing. The entire front of the building will
be changed and new entrance constructed.
The stairways will be set back some twenty
feet from the front of the building and the
lobby through which they are approached laid
with encaustic tile. The store-room on the first
floor, which is forty feet wide and 1875 feet
deep, Will be converted into refreshment-
room, with bar, billiard and poolrooms at
tached, and will be supplied with fountains and
garden. Leading from the refreshment-room
TO the foyer of the theater will be stairway
ten feet wide. which will also serve as an
additional exit in case of fire. The
building will be refurnished, repapered,
painted and gilded throughout, and when
completed will be the largest and
most complete vaudeville theater in the West
The front Will be illuminated with electric light,
ana the auditorium lighted by Edison's new in
csndescent electric light. 1t is the intention of
the management to run the house a strictly
nrst-cass variety theater, something after the
manner OF Heuck's Opera-house, Cincinnati,
though few new ideas will be introduced to
make 1t even more popuar-for instance, cheap
prices, fifteen, twenty-five and thirty-fve cents,
Will always be the rule, making it essentially 10
peoples theater, where the workingman can
lake his family and enjoy an evenings
entertainment at comparatively small cost.
The house will probably be ready for
reopening about June 1, and there
after will be run the year round Only
hrst-cass specially people, combinations and
stars will be played, together with minstrel COM
Ranies, Humpty Dumpty and sensational shows.
The house will be unuer the Immediate super
vision OF the Dickson Bros, but Mr. L. L. Ellis,
one OF the best known and most popular man
ayers IN the country, will act as manager. Just
what effect the opening of this house will have
upon the Zoo Theater remains to be seen, as 1T
Will be run in direct opposition II, instead OF
In connection with 1t, as has been stated
