O'BRIEN LAWRENCEBURGH IND. THURSDAY, MAY 19, 1887. EDITOR O' BRIEN says the result of his visit to Canada has more than answered his most sanguine expectations. Tue available surplus in the United States Treasury $42,000,000, an increase of about since the 1st Inst. THE graduating exercises of the Worley Bundy schools of Centre Township will 1 be held at Bbenezer Church, Tuesday evening, May 24th.
THE real estate boom of Wichita, has collapsed, it is said. Prices were speculated into balloon regions, with nothing to stand on, and the bubble has burst. A FIRST- CLASS gas well has been struck at Broadripple, eight miles from Indianapolis. It is a gusher and pronounced equal to any of the Noblesville wells. A YOUR-IN-HAND race against time for $5,000, the money to be devoted to charity, is a coming event in New York.
Russell Sage is a prime mover in the matter. COMMISSIONER SPARKS, of the General Land Ofice, has recommended for rejection several large private land claims in New Mexico aggregating in area nearly 175,000 acres. TEN years ago Joseph Gatley bought for $2,750 the corner on Fourth and Harmony streets, Philadelphia, on which he has been running a bar-room, and has just sold the lot for $50,000 to a firm of bankers. We desire to call the attention of our readers to the advertisem*nt of Dr. W.
1. Kelley, of'- Cincinnati, that appears elsewhere in this paper, and he furnishes the names of good gentlemen as references as his ad. shows. A STATEMENT has been authorized by the Sub-'Treasury at New York that 4,500,000 trade dollars have been redeemed, and it is supposed that the job of' redeeming them is about ended.

Ir is told that the largest salary received by any woman in this country for her services is that paid by the Harper Bros. to Mrs. Mary L. Booth. She is the editor of Harper's Bazar.
Her salary is $8,000 a year, and she is given $1 percentage on the profits of the publication. Mrs. Booth is in England this summer for a six months' vacation. She has been the leading spirit of the Bazar for nearly twenty years. Tar Enterprise Stove Works, of California, Ohio, have made arrangements to remove to Vincennes, and this has been considered of sufficient importance to start 21 real estate boom at the Old Fort.
concern is the successor of S. L. Yourtee, who founded the Stove Works city, and if they follow in the footsteps of their predecessor Vincennes has our sincere sympathy. LOOKS LIKE BUSINESS--It is said that Depot Master leglin, of the Union Central, Cincinnati, received orders from President M. E.
Ingalls, of the Big Four, before he sailed, to spike the switch which lets the O. M. into the Central depot over the Big Four tracks on June 30--the date set in his locally famous notice to quit. Of course the switchmen could have attended to matters, but spiking would lend emphasis. By dint of very low prices and foreign deficiencies in supply, the exports of wheat in the present crop are the largest in any year of the five in which 1886-87 falls.
There is a gain of nearly 80 per cent. as compared with 1885-86. 'The only years in which the exports exceeded those of the present year were 1882-83, 1880-81, 1879-80 and 1878-79. The corn exports, however, are somewhat under the average of late years. ATTORNEY GENERAL.
MICHENER, in a recent official opinion holds that a contract entered into by County, sioners with an outside to hunt np alleged omitted taxable property on consideration of a certain per cent. of the taxes thus made is null and void. In the saine opinion he holds that taxes collected on omitted property can not be regarded as delinquent, and that the Treasurer is not entitled to any per centage by reason of the same. THE Supreme Court on Friday last made a decision of some moment to physicians practicing in Indiana. They hold the law requiring a license to be constitutional.
That one who undertakes to practice the profession of medicine without the lie nse required by the statute cannot recover compensation for his services. They hold further that a physician who has regularly obtained a license in one county cannot practice in another county without taking out another license. The right to practice is restricted to the county which issued the license. PENNSYLVANIA'S OIL PRODUCTION.Fifty thousand wells have been drilled 200,000 acres of land developed and over 180,000,000 barrels of oil produced in the twenty-eight years that have elapsed since Colonel E. L.
Drake completed his wild cat on Oil creek. Those fond of figures may be interested in the statement that the wells of Pennsylvania alone, if placed end to end, would pierce the earth and through to China. In the Bradford field, whose 75,000 acres have produced over 130,000,000 barrels of oil, a producing a well is now worth about $600 a barrel; that is, a well whose daily output is twenty barrels, would sell for $12,000. Unveiling the Garfield Monument at Washington--The Address of President Cleveland. The unveiling of the bronze statue to the memory of James A.
Garfield, the martyred President, took place at Washington City on Thursday last. In 1883 it was decided to authorize the erection of a statue and pedestal at a cost of $60,000, the funds to be raised by voluntary contributions. Subsequently the sum of $30,000, together with the site, was donated by Congress toward the memorial, and the statue was completed and paid for several months ago. The bronze statue is heroic in size, ten feet and six inches in height, and stands on a pedestal eighteen feet in height. The statue represents the deceased ex-President in a graceful, unconventional attitude, with his overcoat thrown back from his shoulders, his right hand resting upon a book supported by a column, and his left holding before him a manuscript, as if about to address the people.
The day was observed as a general holiday in Washington, in accordance with an order issued by the President, and the departments were all closed. The procession was composed of the Society of the Army of the Cumberland, headed by General Sheridan, a large number of posts of the Grand Army of the Republic, a battalion of the Third United Artillery, a battalion of United States Marines, a detachment of sailors from the United States steamship Galena, twelve companies of the district militia, and various civic societies. Generals Sherman, Sheridan, Rosecrans, Black, Vilas, and many other prominent soldiers were present. ExSpeaker Keifer delivered the oration, and on behalf of the monument committee transferred the monument to Gen. Sheridan; the latter briefly accepted, and transferred his trust to President Clevelands The President accepted the monument in behalf of the United States.
THE PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS. In accepting the monument, President Cleveland said: In performance of the duty assigned to me on this occasion, I hereby accept, 011 the part of the people of the United States, this complete and beautiful statue. Amid the interchange of fraternal greetings between the survivors of the Army of the Cumberland and their former foes upon the battle-field, and, while the Union General and the people's President awaited burial, the common grief of these magnanimous survivors and mourning citizens found expression in the determination to erect tribute to American greatness; and thus to-day in its symmetry and beauty it presents a sign of animosities forgotten, an emblem of brotherhood redeemed and a token of a nation restored. Monuments and statutes multiply throughout the land, fittingly illustrative of the love and affection of our grateful people, and commemorating brave and patriotic sacrifices in war, fame in peaceful pursuits, or honor in pablic station. But from this day forth, there shall stand at our seat of government this statue of a distinguished citizen who in his life and services combined all these things and more, which challenge admiration in American character, loving tenderness in every domestic relation, bravery on the field of battle, fame and distinction in our halls of legislation, and the highest honor and dignity in the chief magistracy of the nation.
This stately effigy shall not fail to teach every beholder that the source of American greatness is confined to no condition, nor dependent alone for its growth and develop ment upon favorable surroundings. The genius of our national life beckons to usefulness and honor those in every sphere and offers the highest preferment to manly hopes and sturdy, honest effort, chastened and consecrated by patriotic hopes and aspirations. As long as this statue stands, let it be proudly remembered that to every American citlizen the way is open to fame and station until heMoving up from high to higher, Becomes on fortune's crowning slope The pillar of a people's hope, The center of a world's desire. not be in vain." THE PRESIDENT THANKED. Nor can we forget that it also teaches our people a and distressing lesson, and the thoughtful citizen.
who views its fair proportions can not tail to recall the tragedy of a death which brought grief and mourning to every household 1 in the land. But while American citizenship stands aghast and affrighted that murder and assassination should lurk in the midst of a free people, and strike down the head of their government, a fearless search and the discovery of the origin and hiding place of these hateful and unnatural things should be followed by a solemn resolve to purge forever from our political methods and from the operation of our government the perversions and misconceptions which gave birth to passionate and bloody thoughts. If from this hour our admiration for the bravery and nobility of American manhood and our faith in the possibilities and opportunities of American citizenship be renewed if our appreciation for our government be strengthened, and if our watchfulness against the dangers of 11 mad chase after partisan spoils be quickened, the dedication of this statue to the people of the United States will General Cist, Secretary of the Society of the Army of the Cumberland, and General Mussey, Secretary of the local Committee of Arrangements, waited on the President on Friday and thanked him both personally and on behalf of the Society for the interest he had manifested in the recent reunion and the warm words of sympathy expressed by him in his address at the unveiling of the statue of Gen. Garfield on Thursday. Tux rush of immigration from abroad has been stimulated by great activity in railroad building by the demand for labor in mills, factories and shops of all kinds Mechanical labor is coming over in abundance, while comparatively few miners are changing their abode.
'The inducements to miners of Europe or Great Britain torchange their homes is not so strong as to workmen in other branches. Common labor has extraordinary inducem-nts offered. There will be railroad mileage laid this year double that of last year. House building will be at least 25 per cent. greater.
Shop labor of all kinds is in demand, and there is, therefore, an opportunity for a great influx of common labor. Even in the lumber camps in the northwest men are paid from $1.75 to $2 per day, but they are skilled woodsmen. Mining labor is wanted in the gold and silver mines all along the Rocky mountain range, from northern Montana to the City of Mexico. SHELBY Times: "Judge Holman, in conversation with a New Haven News reporter, said he thought that upon the whole the President's administration is generally commended by the Democrats of Indiana, though they do not agree with him on the silver question or civil service reform. As between Governor Hill and President Cleveland, the Judge says the latter is more popular in Indiana in spite of the few newspapers out there that are trying to boom Hill for President in '88.

No schedule inter of rates, no matter how high, has ever prevented them from riding comfortably on a brake-beam or in an empty box car. NATURAL GAS FINDS. DATA COLLECTED BY STATE GEOLOGIST THOMPSON WITH REGARD TO VARIOUS WELLS--HE SAYS THE WHOLE NORTHERN HALF OF THE STATE PROMISES OIL OR GAS, OR BOTH IN SPOTS. Indianapolis The following table shows the position of the Trenton limestone, as referred to sea-level, in the bores sunk at the places mentioned.
I do not claim that the list of wells is complete as this would be impossible at a time when the drill is at work and has been at work in so many localities. The table, however will be of great value to those who wish to study intelligently the subject of gas and oil deposits. PLACE. leet No. Connersville (dry) 127 Richmond (dry) 64 Winchester.

No. 6 64 No. 7. Doubtless a number of errors will be discovered in the table, for it has been extremely diflicult to get well-borers and gas hunters to preserve exact seetions. I give the figures as they have been given to me, and they are probably nearly correct with the exception of the doubtful cases of Fort Wayne, Decatur and Bluffton.
Of the last three places I have some doubt, though the figures may be correct. In every case it will be of great value to the State's survey if those who have the facts will promptly write to the State Geologist and correct such errors as the table may contain. It must be remembered that the State has no way of measuring the depth of wells and must necessarily rely on the statements of others in giving information of this kind. It will be seen that as yet 110 gas has been found in paying quantity north of the Wabash river. Oil was reached at Francisville, in Pulaski county, and I feel quite confident that gas will yet be discovered in the area north of the Wabash.
From the above table it appears that gas has been found in this State from eighty-six feet below sea level up to ninety-nine feet above sea level. These extremes are at Kokomo and Marion, the former miles north of Innorth and twenty miles east of Indianapolis, latter fifty-two miles dianapolis. The table also shows, upon refering to map of Indiana, that Francisville is the most westerly point where the Trenton rock has been found charged with gas or oil; that Kokomo is the most westerly point where gas has been reached in paying quantities; that Portland is easterly gas output in the State, and that Greensburg is the farthest south. I do not think that our field is limited by these extremes. There is much to encourage the hope that a vast area north, west and south will yet prove productive of both gas oil.
altitude of the following cities above the level of the sea is as follows: Lawrenceburgh 482 feet Whitewater at 598 Greensburg 913 White River surface at Muncie. 919 6 6.

DePauw said: "I enjoyed my Mexican trip to some extent and obtained some relief, and yet my 'rheumatics' are still to the The boom now sweeping over country, as well as the activity of the boom in business and in manufacturing, must be short lived. There is too much of it, and the boom especially partakes too much of the character of a lottery. I would think it exceedingly unwise to engage in business, or embark in any enterprise that I now know of." Mr. DePauw was high authority on matters of business, and his note of warning may well be heeded by persons of a venturesome turn of mind. DEATH OF MRS.
