Another Boulder Producer.

Denver June S.-A special to the Re
publican. dated last night. says: The
latest oil producer is the Blue jacket,
located southwest of the Mckenzie
well, near the wagon road, and south
east of the school house. Some time
ago there was a report that the well
had reached oil, but it did not amount
to much. Last week the workmen
We're laid off. There was then some
faint indications of oil. Drilling was
resumed this week. This morning at
6 o'clock, after going through thirty
feet of sand. mt a depth of 3,45o feet,
n strong flow was struck. This is sup
posed to be the same sand reached by
the Boulder Basin some time ago.
Some twenty bailers full of oil were
dumped and then. not succeeding in
lowering the column of oil, further
bailing was stopped.
The Wellington had n very satisfac-
tory test at pumping yesterday. The
superintendent still Claims the well
will produce 100 barrels Il day. and ar
rangemcnts are being made to store
the oil and then to ship ii. The oil is
of a very high grade, similar to that
of the Mckenzie.
