Arkansas City Well. 
This well is located on the farm of Rheinhold Hess, southeast 
of the city. It is bored to a depth of 250 feet, the last part 
through a loose gravel and rock. ‘The water is used for bath- 
ing and drinking purposes. Arkansas City is on the line of the 
Frisco, Santa Fe and the Missouri Pacific railroads. 
IMPROVEMENTS. 
The proprietor has built here a small bath-house, in which 
hot, cold, shower and vapor baths are given. Water escapes 
continually from the well. In order to get large quantities it 
is necessary to use a pump. Considerable gas is given off from 
the water when it is first drawn. 
The composition of the water is as follows:
