Centralia Gypsum Well. 
There is a well two and one-half miles north of Centralia, in 
Nemaha county, that has attracted considerable attention on 
account of the amount of gypsum that the water contains. It 
is on the farm of A. Oberndorf, and is 125 feet deep. There is 
evidently quite a body of this mineral below the surface here.
