A Few Wasteful Ones Kesitle Here.
If water consumers were careful to use it only as permitted by their contracts there would be no danger of a water famine at present. Scores of persons sprinkle at mid-day, or any other time they choose, while many hydrants are carelessly or purposely left open, and some consumers waste more water in a month than others use in a year. Save the water. It may be needed to put out fire.—New Castle Courier.

The Hotel to Go Up This Fall.
George H. Cooper, E. S. Bragg an1 J. H. Felt who were at Hartford City yes terday, were much pleased with the
new
hotel there and will model after it, but the one here will be larger, being three stories high and abasement 88x132 feet The rooms here will be larger. There will be two or three business rooms. The hotel is to be built where the Guymon House now stands, and it will be moved on North street and used until the new one is completed,which will be done just as soon as arrangements can be made. The hotel will have all modern appliances aud be up-to-date in every particular. The men who are behind this enterprise have the money to put it through promptly.
Greenfield Hag and Will Have an Abundance of Gas.
Mr. A. T. Ginley, Superin ten sent of the Greenfield Gas Co., says that the well the company brought in Tuesday on Lafe Bussell's farm, six miles northeast of here, is as good a well as was ever drilled in the county. It shows 12 pounds open pressure and 300 pounds rock pressure. This would give the company plenty of gas for-the winter, but they intend putting down two more wells, which will give them more than an abundance. They do not desire to pull their wells to their full capacity. They had already brought in a gcod well this summer. As the Citizens' Gas Co. has always had plenty of gas and to spare for their patrons, and are putting down additional wells this summer, Greenfield c&n look for a splendid supply of gas the coming winter.
Tlie Contest tor the l'rosecutorsliip.
The contest for the olfice of Prosecutor, made vacant by the death of John L. McNew, is becoming interesting. There are now five candidates actively in the race for the position, viz: W. F. McBane, Charles Downing, Marshall B. Gooding, U. S. Jackson and John F. Wiggins. While R. L. Mason is not a candidate, still, if the fight becomes very warm between the other candidates, he could, in the interest of harmony, be induced to take the position. Robert Williamson is not in the fight, as he is holding off so as to be in good position to run for Judge iu 1900. That is a long way off, but there is nothing like a good ready. There are a few more Democratic lawyers, but we have not heard them mentioned iu this contest.
