PULL UP AND QUIT.
That's What crossman Told His Ar
tesian Well Diquers Here.

This morning an Ardmoreite report
er met J. T. Burlington, who has
charge of the force digging the arte'
sian well for the waterworks people
and was told by that gentleman that
he had instructions from p l.. Cross
man, who contracted to dig the well
for j. Weldon Baker and associates,
to stop work at once.
Mr.. Burlington says that he was
running a double shift of men at the
time and when he received the tele
gram, at $3.50 yesterday afternoon,
he was pecking away on the bottom
of the well as best he could; but a
signal to the engineer from him caus
ed the big driver on the engine to
come slowly to a stop, and the i'm
mense drill in the hole ceased to
churn.
The telegram was dated ct Red
Fork, Mr.. Burlington said, and upon
its receipt everything quit. Mr. Buf
hngtOn viii have TO return TO Joplin
Mo. where he resides, unless he gets
something to do here.
The reason perhaps why the work
has stopped, Judging from what Mr.
Burlington said, was because it coulC
not go ahead with the kind of drill
now in use.
The drill now being used is a churr
drill, and it will require a rotary drill
to do the work. Mr. Burlington say
that Mr. Crossman does not do 70
tary work, and hence his suspension
of the work.
Just what Mr.. Baker will do in tn,
matter is not known, but Mr. Bake
has spent too much money here t.
abandon all he has done and we lool
for him to have a man here sool
with a rotary drill, and proceed will
the work.
