At McDonald, Monday, Greenlee Forst struck the largest oil well ever struck in the State. The drill reached the fifth sand, the Saturday previous and the well started off at 150 barrels an hour, and on Monday while she was doing 120 barrels an hour she was drilled a little deeper, and then the rush of oil smashed everything, tore loose and ran down the ravine. It was 24 hours before connections could be completed, when the flow was estimated at 500 barrels an hour or 10,000 a day, making it the largest well ever struck in the State. The 14th Cavalry.

Burning of the Opera House Fifty years ago last Saturday, the brick church building on S. McKean St. was dedicated to the worship of Almighty God by the (ierinau Lutheran congregation of Hutler. Last Saturday night what woodwork remained of the old church, together with the Opera House addition, furniture, scenery, made the largest aud hottest fire that Bntler has seen since the burning of the Court Ilouse. The old church lot and building were purchased from the congregation in ISS4, by Mr.

I. J. McCandless, who organized a company, and changed it into an Opera House, at an expense of about $13,000 in all. They sold it, two years ago. to Mr.

Andy Root, who has since been living in and running it. On Saturday night last, just as a Comedy Co. was preparing for its last act, one of the employes in the basement discovered a fire raging in the large room called the "property room." He gave the alarm, which was repeated upstairs and the audience left the building without serious accident or without any great confusion, but the members of the Comedy Co. lost their heads and jumped out of the windows in their stage clothes, leaving everything else behind. That they had plenty of time to save their valuables is shown by the fact that some men picked up the piano of the orchestra and carried it out safely.

One woman of the company fainted and had to be carried, and a child that was left behind was rescued. Some boys jumped from the gallery to the floor below, and from the windows to the ground, but none ot them received serious injury. The stage part of the building being entirely of wood, high aud dry, the flames spread rapidly, and before the water could be turned upon it, it was "past redemption. Mr. Root lost the property which, we understand was all paid lor excepting 000, also his household furniture, clothing, and he estimates his entire loss at about with uo insirrauce whatever, he having allowed that to expire a year ago.

A slight current of air from the south carried the beat and sparks across the street to the old Miller furniture factory and the stable back of it. The stable was entirely consumed, and the furniture factory partially. The firemen did remarkably good work there, and the Miller family arc under great obligations to them. However some valuable machinery and lumber were destroyed, and a member of the family puts their loss at $2,000, with no insurance. The residence of Mr.

Jos. Balph on the south side of the building.and but a few feet from it, was saved by the liberal use of water, and by the air current, that car ried the heat in the opposite direction. A strong wind that night would have carried destruction with it, and that whole neighborhood can feel thankful that it did not exist. All the fire companies and also the Ilook and Ladder Co. were promptly on hands, and some of the boys stayed on guard all night.

There was plenty of water and no delay was experienced daring the progress of the flro excepting in coupling the hose. The walls of the old church building, excepting the rear wall, which was torn down when it was changed into an Opera House, are yet standing. A citizen of the town furnishes us with the following history of the old church. THE BI'tLDIXG AND ITS BUILDER. The burning of the Opera House last Saturday night might be passed with the usual notice were it not for the associations connected with the bnilding, which has an interesting local history.

It was the first Lutheran church erected in Butler, and was only converted to and known as an "Opera House" within the last teu years. Previous to that it was known as St. Mark's Lutheran Church. Upon a stone placed in its front wall, facing Mc- Kean street, was hewn this inscription: "Templum. Ev.

Lutheranum St. Marco, inscriptum cad. MDCCCXL." Which be ing rendered into English reads, "Saint Mark's Lutheran Church, erected in the year 1540." When the present German Lutheran church at corner of Washington and Jefferson streets was built, about ten years ago, this stone was removed to and placed in that bnilding, where it can now be seen. The old church, just burned, was built under great difficulties and trials. Some of its building committee, among them the late Mr.

Jacob Shaner and Jacob Walter, had their personal property levied upon by the sheriff to pay debts contracted in its building. But it was finally with its strong stone and brick walls, which yet stand. The church was dedicated on Sopt. 26, 1841, just fifty years ago from the time it was 26, 1891. The late Rev.

J. C. G. Schweizerbarth was its promoter and pastor, and the active spirit in its erection. He came from Geruiauy to our county about 1821, and made Zelienople his homo.

He was scholarly, learned and able; but his marked trait was wonderful energy. Ho visited many places and cities to raise money to build this now destroyed build ing and among them Philadelphia where ho called upon Stephen Girard for a contribution. His labors were such in this and neighboring counties that he soon had eleven Lutheran churches erected, in which he had to preach and visit as their sole pastor. It was his habit to wear a loose, flowing clerical days as well as Sunday. The one he used on weekdays was of fine blue calico and when he walked, which he did with great rapidity, this loose gown could be seen streaming in the wind behind him.

He was pastor over his people here for about 28 years, ceasing his labors about 1850, and his remains lie at the church he had caused to be erected in Zelienople. Among Rev. Schweizerbarth's early members here were Jacob Mechling, father of present Thomas Mechling; Jacob Shaner, father of present Ddniel Shaner; Jacob Walter, father of George Walter; John McCollough, John Oesterling, John Sorber, now written Sarver, John Handschuh, now corrupted and put in English as Hcnshue in place of Handshoe, Isaac Yedder, now changed to Yctter, A. Buechle, now written Beighley, Peter Pflueger, now written Fleeger, Henry Young, Joseph Moser, Michael Zimmerman, and many more, descendants of whom arc still among us. J.

Diamond St. were again discussed at length: and more time has been taken up at Council meetings since the paving of the -treets was begun iu the discussion of grades than by any other subject. The engineer has run all lines and set all enrbs between street and alley, and alley and street on straight in this he has been sustained by the Council. The first effort made to change this was the hump made, but afterwards taken off, in front of the P. 0.

bnilding; and now two changes arc requested. On E. Diamond St. a hump is asked for and on Centre Ave. a depression.

A change was made on E. St. to accomodate one property bolder, but it does not snit others; and on Centre Ave. the depression asked for would, if granted, spoil the grade of the whole block from the turn in the street to Ziegler Ave. where the paving will end.

Tho Council voted to make no changes and in the language of the President, "That settles it." The Sewer Committee reported tho completion of tho 15-inch sewer, aud it was taken off the hands of the contractor. Its cost is about $17,000, part of which has been paid. The sewer is said to work perfectly, and in course of time will be extended up the creek so as to accomodate the people of the "East End." The Engineer's measurement of the grading done by Mr. Cupps ou S. McKeaa St.

was 1833j cubic yards, which at 3S cts. amounted to $096.73 which was paid; and tho Street Committeo is now getting ground to finish the bridge fill from a lot on the Southside. The Paving Committee has determined to pave W. Jefferson St. with Franklin, brick, and arrangements to that effect were completed.

Mr. Osborne was paid SIOOO on account. Requests for a crossing on Etna St. und for a lire bell in West End wero referred to the proper committees. The bond of Long Doyle, with R.

Smith and J. M. Porter as sureties, individually, in the sum of SSOOO for the indemnification of E. Jefferson St. was presented, accepted and ordered recorded.

A bill of E. F. Hughes for three "drops" patented arrangement for allowing surface water to enter the large sewerswas approved. These drops were placed on the 15-inch, and one was ordered for the 24.inch, at crossing of Sullivan run. They cost $l3O each.

The further dumping of stuff into the creek near the old ball-grounds was pro hibited; the telegraph and telephone poles on the Southside sidewalks are to be removed; all the hose companies want more hose, and the firemen complain of being fooled by the whistle of the Rail engine works, etc. A Proclamation. To those who have wasted time and patience pounding and sitting crackers lor domestic purposes, Marvin's cracker meal comes as a welcome friend. It Is made from pure fresh baked crackers, and put up In handsome convenient packages. The meal Is put up with great care, and Ls of use In so many ways that no home should be without It.

CkUOAOO An Episode. On Tuesday evening of this week three Pittsburg business men wholesale liquor man.

a wholesale clothing man Jand a wholesale in Butler by the train. They were in a jolly good humor, and they wended their way up street, gripsacks in hand, joking and laughing, to I the hall of a certain business building and started in. The owner of the building happened to be standing in the doorway, and he asked them if they had not made a mistake, but they guessed not and went on, and he. having heard some eompli iuts regarding the doings in one of hia rooms, which he had rented to a dressmaker, followed them and saw them enter the room. Then he called the Chief of Police, and told him to go to that room and arrest everybody in it, and the Chief did so, aud a few minutes after the whole crowdthree men and two women were in the Justice's office, and an information was made against the dressmaker, who gives her name as K.
