OKLAHOMA HONEY mine.
OIL MEMS DISCOVERY IN THE
HIGH LAND NEAR SAPuLPA.

HIGH LAND NEAR SAPUlPA.
| .>%>~->%>%%%>%~>%%~.
Jerry Mckay, well-known oil
man from Sapulpa, related very odd
story to Democrat reporter to-day.
1t was that of bee sting resulting
In the finding of gold mine OF honey
in the rock banks near Sapulpa.
M. l.. Kelley and John CLANCY, two
prominent oil men of Sapulpa, are
the parties implicated in the story.
Mr.. Kelley and Mr.. CLANCY started
out Monday morning from Sapulpa to
drive to we'll they are drilling on
the boggy land, seven miles west of
Sapulpa. The men were about half
way to the we'll when suddenly they
were attacked by large drove Of
bees. The bees swarmed about the
buggy and stung the men and horses
until they were compelled to seek
refuge They whipped up their team
and drove to the cabin of an Indian
named Watahee. Here they told OF
their adventure and had the pain
alleviated by the Indian, who put
some kind of preparation on their
wounds.
In conversation with the Indian
concerning the occurrence they we're
told Of the many bees in the hills
and caves about three miles west of
Sapulpa. They did not believe this
story at first. He said that the In
dians around his cabin were getting
gallons of honey in the caves every
day. This set the oil men to think
ing. That afternoon they went to
the place he told them of. On their
way they met an old Indian woman
who was carrying two pals of spark
ling strained honey. This encouraged
them.
They came upon big post oak in
the field. This had been hacked In
several places and the honey was
dripping from the cut In the tree
into regular pools on the ground.
They did not stop at the tree, but
went on to the caves. AS they
neared the rock cliffs they could hear
a droning like that of sighing pine
trees, so many In number were the
bees. AS they came closer they could
see a kind Of black cloud lowering
before the rocks. There must have
been fifty big swarms of bees around
the rocks.
When they were close up to the
cliffs they noticed huge cracks In the
rocks, and large holes. In these the
honey was dripping almost in small
streams. There were some twenty
buckets and pals setting in the rocks
catching the honey. The Indians are
said to break the cobs of honey with
sticks, and let the honey run out into
pals. A pail will fill In two days
time. II Is said that the finding OF
this great bee industry by the oil
men accounts for the great amount
of strained honey the Indians have
been marketing. 1t was thought be-
fore that the Indians raised the bees.
The oil men say that the sand
stones In the cliffs are just saturated
with honey and little piece of stone
in a bucket of water will sweeten 1t.
The discoverers are at loss to know
how the bees came to be there. IL
Is said by Indians and other old
timers in this section that about ten
years ago an old Indian who had a
few bees was killed. 1t is thought
by them that his bees went wild and
multiplied and increased in number
until at present there are millions OF
honeymakers.-Tul Democrat.

Newest Outing Hats.

II a woman sees a soft wide hat In
fawn or brown velour trimmed with

effort to sell them.
