oil well, now known as the Lucas

Beaumont, has had great success in
boring oil wells and in discovering new

the United states geological depart

plying that position made a special
study OF the oil regions of the coun-
try He later resigned his government
position and associated himself with
J. NJ. Guffy and John II. Galley of Pitts
burg, Pa, in the exploiting of new oil
fields
The oil men of the country were
startled by the report of a wonderful
flow of oil that had been struck in
West Virginia. 1t was learned that
GufTy & Galley were the fortunate
owners of this well. and that the honor

the state visited Beaumont He was
struck with the possibilities of this sec

visited and inspected the surrounding
country, and the first thing the people
here knew an oil drilling outfit had
arrived and the work of putting down
a well began. It is believed by many
practical oil men who are familiar with

This piece of property was in
numbered with a large mortgage and
Senator Mills took a gloomy view of
the future. About this time the first
oil strike in the COrsicana district was
made by Captain Lucas. AS a result
of the discovery land values in that
section began to soar skyward. Senator
Mills held his farm and entered into an
arrangement with practical oil men for
boring number Of wells on the place.
Good flows OF oil were struck in all
these wells and the field has gradually
developed until Senator Mills farm is
now in the very heart of the Corsicana
oil district His income from these
wells soon aggregated several hundred
dollars per day. The number OF wells
on the farm has been largely increased
in the last year, and it is said that his
