L. B. ADAMS, Treas
To Bore For Gas.

The discovery Of the giant gas well near
Lake Park, has been the subject of CONVEX
sation among a good many for several days
The excitement in the capital city has
piven rise TO renewed interest in the
natural gas enterprise in Ogden.
1t will be remembered that little over q
year ago company was organized and
drilling was begun for the invisible sub
stance that surely exists, and completely
uDderlies the Salt Lake valley.
A location for the prospectors was
decided upon to the southeast of the city
near the base of the mountains. The loca-
ton was thought by some to be not at all
a feasible one; but number of the stock
holders IN the company were owners of
real estate In that portion of the city, and
believing that the project would increase
the value and aid them in disposing of
their vacant lots, the drills were put in
operation and they succeeded in piercing
the earth to adepth of over fifteen hundred
feet.
The finances of the company became ex-
hausted and falling to realize anything from
what they had expended, the company
became lnsolvent and the machinery, etc.,
were soid at marshars sale.
Natural gas is being burned In several
residences IN Ogden. Although the gas
company knew this, it nevertheless went
to an elevated place near the mountains to
dots prospecting. The result was no sur
prise, and was only Just what everyone ex-
pected.
A new company is soon to be organized,
2 different location selected and within a
short time. no doubt, the drills will be find
ing their way towards the centre of the
earth. A communication headed natural
gas" is lelned oy one of the chief agi-
tators of the movement. A meeting will
probably be held about Tuesday evening.

Monday evening, the occasion being the
marriage of MIR. John Barnard to Miss Ida
Nelson, the young lady so long employed in
the Co op. The ceremony was performed
in the Crosby chapel by the Rev. d. D.
Stops, at 40 p. N. The charming couple
entered the chapel to the beautiful strains
of the Swedish wedding march, executed
by Miss Schaedell. After the wedding a
sumptuous repast was served at the Occi-
dental that did Landlord Franey great
credit. The evening was concluded with a
social dance at the meeting house.
The bride was dressed in an elegant
cream silk crepe, trimmed with Irish point
lace. with tulle veil that looked beautiful
in contrast with her dark hair and eyes.
1t was generally conceded that the couple
was most charmingly watched. Among
the guests were Mr.. J. A. Cunningham
and Mr.. Andy Bevage of Salt Lake. Mr..
John and Miss Madison Robbins of Gun
nison, Rev. Mr.. Clemmens of Richfield

any great depth the gas escapes as. 1t finds
