plugged and $50 feet of water run
in on top of it. The gas pressure
again forced the double plug out
and the we'll flowed. A triple plug
was put in the next time, which
held until yesterday when the gas
forced the three eight feet plugs
through the top of the derrick and
flowed for more than an hour.
While this report comes from good
authority we do not vouch for the
correctness of it.
A more conservative report and
one which is the reasonable, is that
the we'll when drilled into the top
of the sand showed signs of oil but
never flowed. The we'll has been
plugged, and there is no visible
signs of oil about the derrick. Land
is being taken at fabulous prices in
all directions by outside parties.
1t is understood that Barnsdall is
making an effort to get more terri
tory. 1t is held that the owner, Mr..
Barnsdall is attempting to make a
mystery out of the we'll but just to
what extent remains to be seen. In
any event he is liable to be deceived
by the symptoms of oil in top of the
Injun sand, at any point. In case
the we'll did make showing of oil
on top of the sand that does not
necessarily imply that rich pool
or even a good we'll has been found.
Just why the we'll was plugged is a
matter of conjecture, and the future
alone will tell.
The we'll is located in Peasants
county four miles northwest of
Whisky run. Deepest concern is
felt here over the outcome of this
we'll, and several oil men have al
ready started for the scene.
In the Wilson run field conflict
ing reports are yet being sent out
concerning the Long Eddy Oil
company's No. Rainard. 1t is re-
ported that it was shot yesterday
and is making 200 barrels. While
its exact capacity can not be as
certained here until some parties
who are at the we'll return, it is not
believed to be only a very light pro-
Queer.
In the Elk Fork pool. the Elk
Fork Oil and Gas company are due
at their No. 10 J. K. Hill tomor-
row. Their No. II is also nearing
the sand.
In the course of a week or ten
days J. L. Flack will drill in Boyd
Bros. ct al test on the Eakin farm.
This is the most important location
drilling at the present time in Ty-
Ter county.
BOILER HOUSE BURNED.
Robinson & Co.'S boiler house on
the Mckay farm burned last night.
The origin of the fire, or damage
sustained could not be learned.
J. K. HILL ILL.
TX. Hill made famous by his
prolific oil farm in the Elk Fork
field, is critically i'll at his home in
that vicinity. He is suffering with
a complication of diseases, and last
night was thought to be dying. At
a late hour today he was still alive,
but very low. His brother was here
last evening on his way to his bed
side.
LIGHT WELL.
Mallory Bros. & Barnsdall's No.
3 Albrecht is reported very light.
This seems to be the order Of things
in the Whiskey run pool at the
present time. The location of this
