PROSPECTUS.

In rendering this, our prospec-
tus, we wish to avoid howery,
deceptive language, and to set
forth in detail few simple, plain
facts, briefly stating what we
ha,e done, where we have opera
ted and what we propose to do.
The Prairie Mamou Oil & Min
eral Co. Ltd, domiciled at Jen-
nings, Calcasieu parish, La. is a
duly organized and chartered
company, capitalized at 5000, 900.
Captain D. E. Sweet, president
of the Jennings Banking & Trust
Co., a man of unquestionable in
tegrity and pronounced bust
ness success, is president Of this
company.
From the organization OF this
Company it has been the purpose
to select small plots of really Oil
lands throughout the oil belt Of
Calcasieu parish, ignoring IN a
measure large bodies Of indiffer-
ent lands without promise, upon
which leases could be procured
at nominal figures. Following
up this idea they have purchased,
First.-Twenty acres near the
blackberry well that is full OF
promise, the well being down
near 1000 feet, with every indi'
cation of success. The stock OF
this we'll is now at par value.
A peculiar feature character
ling this we'll, which lies thirteen
miles southeast of Sulphur Mines
is, that before the day when sui
phur was extracted by heat ;
spring at blackberry flowed very
cold water, which today is almos
as hot as hot coffee. We als'
purchased five acres near thu
Vinton wells which have struci
several stratas Of Oil, published
to the world.
The Jennings daily record. [volume] (Jennings, La.) 1900-1903, 1901-11-20

Second.-Finding unparalleled
gas and oil indications on Bayou
Blue, about fifteen miles north
of Jennings, we purchased Bayou
Blue Springs, covering hill OF
about five arcres on Bayou Blue.
We also have forty acres three
miles north of the jennings Oil
Well, where gas and Oil abound
and upon which it was at first
intended to sink a well. But the
climax was struck when after
much labor and time had been
spent, ANSSE A. La BUTTE, the
SPINDLET TOP of MamouF Prairie
was secured, and this is real
Spindl Topin every sense. This
six acres lies within a mile OF
Bayou Cane, tributary OF Mer-
mentau river and just north OF
Mermentau station where the
Southern Pacific railway crosses
the Mermentau river, giving
easy and cheap access to an out
| let to market.
This is where the Prairie
Mamou Oil & Mineral Co., Lit d
will within the next 80 days be-
gin to sink a we'll with the prom
Use in advance Of a gusher. 1t is
about one fourth of mile south
east of the noted gushing well OF
the Jennings Oil Co.
We intend to bore our SECOND
well on Bayou Blue. We have
leases upon several hundred
acres of lands on which we would
bore in event others see fit tt
develop any adjacent thereto anc
meet success.
The Company will offer $4,000
: shares for sale at so cents pei
, share for short time. Par val
ne of shares one dollar each. We
would much prefer to sell these
shares to home people.

A Snake Story

Whiting Journal says: A Whit

had an experience in the city
park the other night which is
very thrilling. AS he was pass.
ing near the band stand he heard
a strange noise. After inveStl-
eating he found it came from a
large rattlesnal1e. 1t was pin
Toned to large limb broken from
a tree. He set the snake free
and went on his Journey home
ward, unconcious that the snake
was following. He sat down to
supper and in picking up spoon
which he had carelessly dropped
on the floor, again saw the snake.
He fed it and they became fast
friends. The snake would eat
from his hands, wrap around his
neck and bag him and sleep coil
ed up on the foot OF the bed.
This continued for week or
more But one night the man
was restless and could .znot sleep.
He called 80 the snake and it did
not respond as usual, so he arose
lighted the lamp aud began tc
search for his pet. He found
the snake in the parlor wrapped
around the neck of "a burglar
and it's tail hanging out Of the
window rafting for the police.

One of the new industries that have
followed In the train of the electric
light Is that of carbon making. The
first electric lamps used carbon points
sawed out of the Dense almost metallic
looking carbon deposit that slowly
formed on the inside of the clay re-
torts used in making coal gas. This
material was scarce and soon became
expensive and, being both exceedingly
hard and more brittle than glass, was
very difficult to work. 1t was there
fore found necessary to manufacture
the carbon points, and making these
has now become a considerable indus
try. New York city alone consumes
several hundred thousand of them
every week.
They are made of a mixture of petro-
leum, coke and tar, which is baked
Tor long time at high temperature
The coke Is ground as fine as possible
In especially designed mills and Is init
mately mixed with the tar in mixing
machines. A cake of the resulting
carbon dough is placed in a strong steel
cylinder, having hole of the proper
diameter at the bottom. A massive
steel plunger, worked by hydraulic
power descends upon the mass and
forces out the dough in the shape of
ROD. This is cut into proper lengths,
packed tightly in powdered coke in
iron boxes and baked at red heat for
a week or more. The product, when
cooled and smoothed on emery wheels,
is the carbon rod of the arc lamp

ADIOS VICTORIA.

Day by day and hour by hour since
the venerable Queen of England
folded her hands and closed her ewes
on the scenes OF this world, the min
utest details of all things relating to
the passing of great sovereign has
been flashed under the sea to the
American people. So quick, so near,
that scarce imagination was needed
to hear the minute guns from the
war ships, and even the funeral
chimes of cathedral bells seemed to
echo back their solemn tones from
our mountains. Saturday the End
OF February saw the end, and all un-
conscious the royal form was borne
to her final resting place-her heart
had been there many years before
beside the man she loved as women
love. All the magnificent display
ON land aud sea in her honor only
led to this. The magnificent MAUI
soleum, or an English hawthorn over
two graves would tell the same
story. Peace to her and honor to
her memory.

And rich and poor around it wait.
