GAS PROSPECTS ARE GOOD.
Ellsworth's Third Well Has go
Pounds Pressure to Inch.

Salina, Kan. April 22.-The third
and greatest discovery of natural gas
at Ellsworth yesterday leads the de-
velopment company to believe that the
farther east the drilling is done the
greater will be the production. The
third we'll was dug about 1000 feet
east of the first we'll and at a depth of
100 feet the flow tested 270 pounds
to the square inch. The experts who
have been with the work at Ellsworth
believe that there are great quantities
of still better gas in the ground to-
ward the eastern edge of the county
and more wells will be sunk at once.
