A Good Well in the Former and Consider
able Fight in the Latter Field.
The Tate well on the Hibler farm, south of
the old Arbuckle well in the next ravine run
ming to Charters creek, promises to do any
where from 100 to 500 barrels day. Some per-
sons think it shows tor a bigger gusher than
he Arbuckle well. 1t is mainly owned by
Thomas Tate. his partner, Mr.. Meyers, and
Boehmer Bros The drill is but two feet in the
sand and will not be pushed further until tank.
age is built and pipe line connection made.
The well was on the verge of being abandoned
on account of the rock appearing to be n. G.
1t was an intensely hard shell and of unpromis-
ing appearance. 30 hard that it knicked the bit
out of shape. A consultation was held and it
resulted in a determination TO run one more
bit. That broke the crust and the grease few
to the top of the derrick, after few turns of
the templet screw.
The Duquesne Gas Company is having
trouble IN the effort to supply drillers in the
Westview field with gas. Mrs. Hahn objected to
allowing the pipe to go through her farm and
the work was stopped for a time. Another
woman as an earnest of her feelings destroyed
the workmen's lunch ere they reached her
place. ]. W. Breen objects to the line running
through his farm. and the gas company pro-
pose to retaliate by refusing to supply Smith &
kleiman with gas for their boilers while drill
ing on the Breen farm.

AN UNPOPULAR BOOK.
Ihe City in a Hole by the Publica-
ton of the Triennial Report.
ONLY SEVEN COPIES OF IT SOLD,
1t Cost Pittsburg Over $1,000 and Nobody
Desires to Purchase.
WHAT THE OFFICIALS SAY ABOUT 1T

Reclining in his easy chair in the CITY
Assessors Office Chief Frank Case was ac-
costed yesterday, and 10 the question of
whether he was popular author or not, re-
piled: u do not know. 1 am not certain that
the books compiled by the Assessors Board are
popular, but have an impression that they are
not what you might call salable in the strict
sense of the word. ] think that about seven
copies of the latest work-the report of the tri-
ennial assessment-have already been sold, but
! am afraid that the list will not be materially
increased
Controller Morrow was then seen. and asked
how the sales were progressing He sighed
over the recollection of having refused an ad-
vance IN salary, and thought that if he had to
depend upon the percentage obtainable from
the sale of the city assessors reports for a
living his clothes would have to be reduced in
Girth.
INTERESTED BOTH WAYS.
He admired the work very much, and, al
though 1t was book of interest IN fact large
advance in interest to those who were assessed,
he thought the price was little too lofty. The
three volumes which were estimated by Coun-
ellis to be worth S5 IL each. did not seem to catch
the public eve. or the publics Greenbacks.
There was sort OF lassitude in the rush TO OBJ
tain copies which boded i'll for the popularity
Of the work.
He had the Controller said, sold five copies
nltDSelI, and was waiting eagerly lot more oI-
ders. but had an idea that the city would have as
il always has had large amount of surplus
literature on hand. why" said the Control
Ter, "even my own reports have been annually
cut down. and next year L expect to reduce
them further The only people who read my
reports carefully are the controllers OF other
cities 1 hope: the proof-readers doubt, and
the reporters l question. Bankers read it for
the information on bonds contained"
THE CITY IN A HOLE.
From the various talks held with City Hall
officials and taxpayers 1t appears that the city
is in a hole on the three volume work Whether
of history or fiction, there are only seven
people apparently who had the enterprise to
investigate at S. Al per investigation. AS it is,
the city is willing apparently to sac
riice literary stock at very large
discount before very long. The
trouble appears to be that the people who want
the reports are perfectly willing to pay for
knowing how their own ward stands.
but the man in the Thirty-sixth
is unwilling to pay IS Al for the
privilege of learning the assessments of the
Twenty-third. The East End residents who
are so desIrous of library privileges are not
seemingly anxious to add to their collections,
and now it is said the members of the Car
negle Library Board are expected to hold
meeting to consider whether the issue of
1000 copies of the assessors reports would not
make a good nucleus for the library. The
book cost the city over s., 000 1t is printed and
sold by city ordinance.

BOWED TO TIE TELEPHONE,

An Individu Who Got on Something and
Made Himself Ridiculous.
A wellknown Alleghenian, whose habits are
strictly temperate, falling in yesterday with a
few boon companions, whose constitutions were
tougher than his own. took on a load of rye
juice, which made an impression on his tenn
per and brain. In this condition he was called
to the telephone and asked if he would not
take certain prlce for some articles he had for
sale
The price was satisfactory, and he said, Yes,
by frequent bows to the telephone. While
the fellow at the other end of the line could not
catch on, the veterans surrounding the boozed
brother did. and the fun was of decidedly ex-
uperapt character.

PHELPS TAKEN BACK.
He Apologized TO ihe Faculty, but YOUNG
Tibbey is Still Out.


The case Of Hartley Phelps, who was sus-
pended from the High School last Thursday,
primarily because he read paper before the
Dean Literary Society lightly ridlculing some
members Of the faculty. came up before the
regular meeting of the faculty Of the High
School yesterday. The young man acknowl-
edged reading the obnoxious portion of the
paper to the school before he had first read the
entire paper at rehearsal.
In his letter asking for restoration Mr.. Phelps
acknowledged his error and made a formal
apology, and on motion he was again admitted
TO the school at once
In the matter of James libby, who was sus-
pended for wearing a badge Of mourning to
symbolic his regret at Phelps suspension, and
which act is always punishable by dement's, the
faculty took no action. He has as vet made no
apology, and until he does ne is considered out
of the school, and beyond the power of the
faculty to forgive him.
