debtedness OF the company in which employees
will be at all interested.


ii. L. Horace OF Flndlay, Ohio. who was at
the falace last evening, gave a CALL man some
interesting Information relating TO the center
OF the greatest natural gas producing section OF
country in the United States THE first Of the
great wells" said he, "was the Harg, and IL Is
sun producing, but not in such extraordinarily
large measure as formerly. II originally had
an output OF about 1000 cubic feet per
hour A siandpipe four inches in diane
Ter and sixty feet high was erected
through which the gas escaped aud which was
lghited at night. II was visible for miles
around ana was an attraction of indescribable
beauty 10 passengers on The cars which ran
Immediately past II. All the cooking. heating

giving out OF some of the wells for a time had
Dad effect upon business and gave rise TO the
rumor that the supply was exhausted, but new

We peiieye We have an inexhaustible supply"
THE press dispatches concerning the Gov
ernors Inauguration In Ohio show peculiar
phase OF politics there" said I. Il. HeandOn OF
Cincinnati 10 the Baldwin last night. 1.-THE
active participation of many prominent Ohio
Democrats In the ceremonies attending Gov
ernor McKinley's second inaugural, although
T2Glcal departure from custom, Will be readily
understood by those familiar with the situa-
ton IN that State. 1t Is explained solely
upon the Governors personal popularity
with the rank and file OF Democrats and
Republicans alike. His charming man
ner. the noticeable absence OF harsh
criticism of his political opponents, which has
always characterized his public utterances.
coupled with The mans marked individuality,
have gained for him degree OF esteem from
members of all parties, which political consid-
eratlons even can not prevent coming TO the
surface"
Horace Jarvis OF Kansas City, who came In
on the overland yesterday and was about the
BaldWln last evening, gained good deal OF
notofiety some years ago while he was men,
Der of the Kansas City Board OF Council
men. That old familiar air, "Chippie, Get Your
Hair Cut" had become so obnoxious to the
cultured tastes or the residents of that
city that Mr.. Jarvis fathered an ordinance pro-
hibting any one from whsiling or singing il
upon the streets under penalty OF $40 foe.
The particularly unpleasant feature OF the
matter was that Mr.. Jarvis himself was the
first man to pay fine Tor violating the ordi-
nance.
'll may be news 10 many persons In the
theatrical profession even, but II is, nevefthe-
less, fact that there are more new plays pro-
duced for the first time In Buffalo, n. y, than
IN any other city in the country, outside of
New York City," said an old manager last
superstition, as nearly every play starting from
that city seems 10 meet with success; or, on the
other hand, the lively appreciation Of Buffalo
people for good thing in the theatrical line
may have decided weight win authors and
managers"
II. NJ. Black of Victoria, b. c., who is in the
city, says that Arthur Turner and Mrs. jamie
son, the clipping couple who created such sen.
sation by their actions some months
ago. and who sought this city IN
their flight, have separated and that the
woman is back among her friends, while
Turner is supposed 10 be somewhere 10 The
East. His father refused TO supply MIN with
The necessary means 10 continue bis relations
with the woman, and when 1t came TO earning
his own living aud that OF his companion he
gave up the fight and deserted the latter.
RIB. Butler OF Fresno, who is at the Grand,
is one Of those who believe the probability of
catching Evans soon is not promising. Mr. Butler
says that Sheriff Scott of that county feels very
keenly the position in which the escape of his
notorious prisoner places him and Is doing
everything in his power 10 effect his recapture.
Scotps trouble, Mr.. Butler says, was ineXper-
ence. Public opinion in Fresno is not in any
measure favorable 10 Evans, and the general
impression is that he is practically without IA
cilties for procuring Immediate RELIEF for his
physical wants.
That thriving women's organ iZation, the Cen
tuTy Club, was being discussed by two gentle
men in the Palace last night, when one of
them mentioned an amusing incident In COLI
nectlon with the New Years reception gwen
by that body. 1t appears that among other
noted women an invitation had been sent TO
Ellen Terry. She is now in the East and OF
course was unable 10 attend. However, she
telegraphed the club: 81 wish you one and all
a happy New Year." AT the bottom of the
message was written, "CoIleet ST."
Captain Julius Palmer OF the Boston Tran
script IS at the California awaiting the depart
