FIND GAS AT LAWTON
Consolidated Oil g. Gas 90. Makes
aRich Strike.
OTTUMWANS HAVE GOOD PROSPECTS
Find Was Made on Claim First Chosen
by ottumwa Parties But Afterwards
Relnquished for More Promising
Location-Lawton Excited.

The Judgment Of w. NJ Reese, j. "a.
Mangan and Fred W. Wilson, who first
located claim for the Ottumwa Oil
& Development Co., near Lawton,
Oklahoma, was good and their belief
in the richness of the land has been
justified beyond doubt by the dis
covery of natural gas on the land
where they located their first mineral
claim. This land does not belong to
the OttumWa Oil & Development Co.,
as 1T was let go for some land about
eight miles distant, which is consid-
cred by the same men to be fuller of
promise than was the first. The Con-
solidated Oil & Gas Co., which is COM
posed of 100 citizens OF Lawton, owns
the claim where the new gas well has
been struck, and the Ottumwa people
who are interested in the local com
panies believe that when drilling is
commenced on their land a flow of gas
even larger than that on the Consoli-
dated claim will be discovered.
Much Excitement.
A personal letter from J. "A. Man
gan, who is in .Lawton, to F, w, Viii

of gas commenced. A we'll was being
drilled for oil, but when the flow iof
gas with a pressure of nearly 200
pounds was struck the oil business
was thrown over for the time being
and the company began figuring en-
tirely on gas.
Applied for Franchise.
The Consolidated asked the city
council for the right to use Lawton's
streets and alleys for laying pipes. The
people see new beginning of the
( prosperity of the city with the estab-
lishment of natural gas supply for
private consumers, thus solving the
question of fuel, which has worried
many Of the Lawtonites.

The gas was struck at a depth of 500
feet into the ground and word received
from Lawton is to the effect that no
attempt will be made to go deeper, the

gas will be Of great benefit to Lawton

Everything seems to be monogramed
this year-stationery. boudoir furnish
ings and lingerie Of all sorts. Few things
are more acceptable to the young sister
from a big brother than a graduated set
of monogram designs and dies for her
various needs, since they run into pock-
et-money at a terrible rate, ten dollars
being the price for a good three-letter
die, and one needs SO many sizes. The
big one worn on the Vassar girls shirt
waist bosom is entirely too elaborate for
the corset cover or chemise, while the
kerchiefs (made to order. of course) re-
quire still another style. as do the stock
ings. Stationery is delicately mono
grained. and the newest envelopes are
very long and slim, with a flap extend
ing their entire length. White or gray
white are the only two smart shades.
The comic papers have made so much
fun of the things women buy for men
at Christmas that these gifts naturally
cause the most anxiety. Besides. so few
men have the tact to say always: This
is exactly what / wanted" which is one
Of the charming traits of most women.
Handsome-really handsome-umbrel-
las, are invariably acceptable, for these
articles have an absurd way of disap-
pearing, and men rarely have so many
as not to welcome another. A new style
shows a natural wood handle of ample
size, in which is a smoothly embedded
silver monogram. Such handle is
simple and elegant. The umbrellas cost
about twenty dollars.
Small jewels inset in all-over patterns
on cigarette and card cases are new and
effective. A small gold match box, with
diamonds and sapphires set in an ir-
regular device. was bought for a newly
married man by his bride.
carefully selected seal for fob is
another good choice. Have the gold old
yellow and the letters deeply engraved.
I believe those of heavy gold have super
seded entirely the suspended amethyst
or topaz Of former days. The fob itself
is often of gold also. but many prefer
the black ribbon, which is such good
FORM to the more recent innovation.
Pearl studs-and the latest shirts call
for three-make a handsome and costly
gift. These should be set in chains OF
gold, and not entirely free. The chained
are much prettier. and. besides, the jew
els are protected.

NEW YORK, Dec. 20.-The blessed
giving time is at hand again-the time
when each woman and child, to say
nothing Of the poor man caught i'm the
whirl, goes on daily shopping tours, with
a neat list of those to be remembered
tucked in a glove or portemonnaie. Nat
urally, with every individual bent on the
same object, that of filling a Christmas
list, the shops are horribly crowded, and
IL is absolutely necessary to know what
one wants to get for each person in
order to do any sort of judicious pur-
chasing or to get much accomplished in
a limited time.
The question, what to get for ones
various relatives and friends, should be
answered before starting out If you
would save both time and worry. There
are SO many lovely things TO be had this
year that gift buying should be a posi-
tive joy. Let me mention just a few of
the beautiful objects suitable for gifts
that I have run across recently.
OF course one has to be careful. 1t
will not do to send a stunning smoking
jacket to the relative who does not
smoke. In nine cases out of ten such a
man Is a crank about health and a de-
votee Of his tub. Get for him, instead,
one Of those wide-striped or Persian ef-
feet bath robes of finest imported downy
material and trimmed with thick satin
in the same color. with a heavy silken
rope for girdle. These in choice impor-
tations can be had for from forty to
eighty dollars. and are worth it, Some
men regard 1t as extra smart to have a
big monogram embroidered above the
cum of the left sleeve. but this is a
matter Of taste.
The courier., 1902-12-20

turquoise, entwined in her fluffy hair.
Another girl had large crimson poppy
over each ear, the two united by a On
Barry plated ribbon of the same color.
Pond lilies were also in evidence.
With their trembling yellow stamens
they were most effective on dark hair
and with a white costume. They showed
a little foliage green in the embroidered
trimming. Annunciation lilies have q
slight vogue also. but they are too large
to be popular. Wreaths are worn, but
not so commonly as when Captain
Jinks' was on the boards and they were
a fad with young girls. Ivy is the favor
ite foliage for these, and the smaller the
leaf the better. Laurel and oak can be
had, but the demand for these is not
great.
One rose, sprinkled with rhinestones,
is suitable for evening home wear, or
for the opera with a simple gown. The
flower must be tucked over the left ear,
if the hair is worn low, and If not, to
the left of the front knot-never ex-
actly in the middle.
Jet ornaments come for the elderly,
and are exquisite in one open flower,
say a lily, one bud and a leaf. The
Christmas girl, the same one who be-
comes so enthusiastic at the New Haven
races and at football games, will wear
holly berries in the midst of. frosted
green leaves and loops of narrow GRIM
son velvet ribbon during the evening
festivities of Yule-tide.
A very acceptable Christmas present
for debutante sister or friend is a
pearl Juliette cap for the hair. These
will be in style all winter. They are
composed Of netted pearls, and are very
expensive If well made. Other jewels
are sometimes used in this way, tur-
quoises being rather effective.
One thing must be borne in mind in
regard to these little toilet accessories.
The ornaments in hair and corsage must
both match the trimming or some color
of the gown-Lady Modish, in Town
Topics.
