the CAZ ETTE

Is the Most Popular Newspaper in the State. 1t
its popularity to the fact that it is the BEST
EDITED and has the HIGHEST LITERARY CHAR
ACTER of any Kansas publication. 1t is CLEAN
and BRIGHT, and is the able exponent of ideas and
principles dear to the Kansas people. While it is
broad in its philanthropy it Is for KANSAS
AGAINST THE WORLD, and broadly claims that
the best service that be done for mankind is to
INCREASE AND MAKE PERMANENT THE
PROSPERITY OF OUR GREAT COMMON
WEALTH. Conscientious service in this patriotic
line of duty has given it unusual hold upon the
people OF central and western Kansas. Besides,
no paper excels ii adisseminator of news.
The MARKET REPORTS ARE RELIABLE AND
COMPLETE The NEWS OF ALI. THE WORLD
is found condensed in its columns and the very best
stories and literary productions that money pur
chase are regularly found in its columns. On the
whole it is a model newspaper and richly deserves
what it has, THE LARGEST CIRCULATION of any

FRIEND OF q. b. MCCLELLAN.
The communication of which the
above is copy comes to US written In
a delicate, lady's-we mean feminine
chirography, and although the name
of the fair wliter does not accompany
it, it bears such indubitable evidences
of having been written in good faith
that We publish 1t in the hope that its
appearance in print may be sanctifiesl
to the good of the pious and charitable
author. 1t isn't often that We publish
communications of such an extremely
personal character but we could not
resist the temptation to present this
evidence of the way in which an edit
or, however modest. ia sometimes over.
whelmed with compliments from un-
expected and even unk nOwn eOurces.
We want to cay too in this public way
that If lack of paper is the only cOnsi,l-
GRAFTON that restraints our correspond.
snt from telling more Of our history,
We will be pleased to supply that lack,
free Of cost, if she will call at this Of.
fee. 1t is too bad to have a good story
cut short for want of little paper that
only costs fraction of cent q sheet.

LUCKY AT LAST.
Gas Well No. 5 Thoroug hly Tested
And not Found Wanting.

The REGISTER remarked, in noting
some four weeks ago that gas had been
found in the new well, that
we would not do any "blowing" until
it had been thoroughly tested. That
test has been made and with such gra.
tifying results as to fully justify the
most enthusiastic claims. Last Thurs.
day night, for the first time, q heat
ing and cooking stove burners were at
tached and the gas turned on. The
heaters all burned with the fiercest
flame and were then able to consume
but a small portion of the immense
volume of gas that whistled through
the pipes. Since then the burners
have been lighted every night and
hundreds Of people have witnessed the
brilliant illumination. Conservative
and experienced men are positive that
this one we'll will supply ut least one
hundred heating stoves. Mr.. Pryor,
who drilled it. is 80 confident Of our
gas supply that he offers to dig an.
other well and take a half interest in 1t
himself. The Company have not yet
decided what they will do with the
gas, but the prevailing sentiment fav-
Ors piping it up town and using ID for
fuel in business and private houses,
and this will doubtless be done. 1t
really seems at last that we have q
well which will prove paying invest
ment.
