GAS BELT ESTABLISHED
Ontario's Oil Well Becomes
Rushing, Roaring Gasser.

The new gas belt has been locat-
ed, and Ontario is in its midst.
At 5 O'Clock Monday afternoon
this town leaped into world promi-
nence as the pioneer in a newly
proven gas territory. With rush
and a roar that could be heard half
a mile, Ontario's first gas well
came in, and the terrific stream of
gas which tore itself loose from
the earth's interior carried with it
water, mud and bits Of rocks hun
dreds of feet into the air. That
stream of gas is still escaping, and
the well has roared through two
days and three nights with an
ever-increasing volume.
AT the present time it is impos-
sible to conhne the gas, as the
valves and Gaping ordered some
time ago bave not yet arrived from
California. But a gate valve was
ordered by telegraph Monday, to
come at once by express, as it is
hoped the flow caa be controlled
within a very short tine. When
the valve arrives and is attached
in the we'll, drilling will be re-
sumed.
At the present time thousands
of cubic feet are escaping contln-
uously. The pressure of the gas
was estimated Tuesday morning by
use of a steam gauge. and register
ed at least 200 pounds. 1t may be
much more than that. A small
stream of the gas has been piped
underneath the boiler of the engine
used to work the we'll, and burns
with great heat, making an ideal
fuel for the engine. A two-inch
pipe also carries aside a larger
stream, which has been allowed to
burn at distance from the der
rick, and throws up fame which
leaps yards into the air.
The depth of the we'll at the time
of the discovery was 22l0 feet.
The drill had just pierced hard.
rocky formation which was diff
cult to penetrate. Bits of it which |
came up at the time of the explo |
sion appear to have distinct traces
of oil. There is also an oily smell |
in the gas as it hurns, and every
indication is that the oil for which |
months of hard labor have been
expended lies almost Immediately
at hand. Great excitment has pre-
vailed in Ontario and vicinity the
past two days, constant stream OF
people having visited the we'll
since its eruption. The company's
stock has been withdrawn from
the market.
When the explosion occurred,
the tools were blown a great dis
lance up in the we'll and twisted
and crumpled up so lhat it was
only with great care and patience
Driller Kelly was able to remove
hem from the we'll. But they
we're finally removed unchanged,
md will be put to Use again as
;oon as the valve arrives. If there
S oil in this we'll, it shall be
forth soon. If there is
lot oil. the gas alone has made
0ntario's future. -Optimist.
