FOR OIL OR GAS
SYNDICATE WILL PROSPECT IN
SAND HILLS.
Leases Practically Completed for
Extsnsivs Investigation Into the
Riches Of tho Hills.

For several weeks NJ. P. Jolley &
Son have been securing mineral right
leases on lands in the Sand hills west
Of town for 9 St. Louis syndicate
which expects to prospect for oil or
gas. Mr.. Jolley said today that the
work was practically complete and it
is expected that business will com.
mence soon. Among the lands leased
are: Mrs. Ella German, $50 acres; D.
German, $40 acres; A. W. Rice, $40
acres; Hiland Southworth, 80 acres;
J. A. McNaul, 100 acres and also the
old Red Bud rancho.
The shafts will vary in depth from
l.4UO to 1000 feet and Mr.. Jolley
seems confident that the search for
mineral, oil or gas deposits will be
successful. The leases contract to
complete we'll on each tract Of land
within five years, and reserve the
right to operate it should any valua.
able deposits be located, paying a
royalty on the production.
The first shaft will be on Red Bud
where a well OF 700 feet was sunk a
few years ago and the gas burned for
days. There are indications also OF
coal and oil. Experts say the forma.
tion is very similar to the lola district.
