Messrs. Gooderman and Black

offered two dollars per share for the
control of the same. This offer has

MUST STAMP
LEASES RIGHT
Coal and Gas Companies Re-
quired to Change Place
Of Seal.

Secretary Hitchcock does not like
the manner in which some of the gas
and coal companies stamp the leases,
which they submit for his approval
through the Indian agency, in this
city, and in a recent letter he in
structed the agent not 10 receive any
leases where the company applying
has stamped the document over the
place where the secretary's signature
is TO appear. Mr. shoenfelt in almost
every case has to demand new lease.
The majority OF the companies, igno-
rant of the secretary's orders, place
their seal on the opposite side Of the
paper, directly over the space left for
the secretary to sign, and thus the sur
face is made rough.

On descending from the derrick Miss

the people were ready 10 quit the
grounds the point Of the big drill had
penetrated the earth to a depth Of tif-

at the time the crowd was most inter
