Although the Visitor has frequent y called attention to the disgraceful condition of the sidewalk on East Hargett, between Wilmington and "louot streets the same old state of things exist, to the serious dttri ment of pedestrians.

What, is undoubtedly the strongest natornl gas well ever found in the Indiana belt is a roaring monster north of Muncie, Ind., which cannot he gotten under control. A few days sincr Walley & Spellacy, contractors, drilled in a well on the Sptlker farm. Neitd'.ylt was discovered that the pressure had raised to an enormous degree, and it has since increased un til it has become impossible to an chor the well or do anything with it. It is ImpoR'ible to force a sledge ham ner, crowbar or anything into the hole and the gas roars until a man's voice cannot be heard within several hnndred yards of the well. The earth trembles in a frightful manner. A great deal of fright is entertained as to what the result will 1 e. The well Is estimated at over 10,000,000 feet, and the apparatus used to anchor the monster Jumbo well at Fairmount is useless Great caution is being used to prevent the gas from becoming ig nited.
