STATE OF. ILLINOIS NOW
HAS $1,000 OIL WELLS
Production Last Year Estimated al
35,OOO.OOO Barrels-A Good
Increase.

A circular on the Illinois oil fields
in 1910 sent out by the state geo.
logical survey says that Illinois re-
sumed it's continuous growth in oil
production in 1910, after the relapse
of 1909. The estimated production
for the year is 100000 barrels,
as against 3O,S9S.339 in 1909 and
33,6S5.106 in 1908. The increase
was due to general mSrket condi-
tions and the ability of various pipe
lines to cope with the supply. The
introduction of new pipe lines into
the field late in 1909 materially aid
ed in the increased activity.
On Jan. 1, 1910, it was estimated
that 16.497 wells had been drilled
in Illinois. OF these 1919 or IA 4
per cent were barren. In the first
eleven months of 1910, 1878 wells
were drilled, with 43O, or 21.S per
cent barren. The total, up to date.
is 1910 drilled and 2,S09 or 1916
per cent barren.

MURDER CHARGE
AGAINST LOGAN
J b. Thomas Dies From Wounds In
fnicted BY Another Negro, Who
Claimed That Thomas Held a
.'HOOdOO" Spell Over Him. ~.

Following the death Of ]. B. Thorn
as the negro who was shot and serl-
ously wounded on last Monday morn
ing, several miles south of Pine Bluff
on the macadam road, by Will Logan,
another negro, the charge OF assault
with intent To kill was changed to
murder by Magistrate j. A. Frazier
yesterday. Logan is in the county
Jail. The officers learned yesterday
that Thomas had died at 10 O'Clock
Tuesday night. Logan was arrest
ed shortly after the shooting by De
putty Sheriff c. c.. Green, while he
said he was on his way to Pine Bluff
to surrender.
The death of Thomas came as a
surprise as it was stated that none OF
the shot from the shotgun used by
Logan entered his body. His left ann
was partially torn away and his side
~lacerated, but the attending physician
did not consider his. wounds necessar-
lily fatal.
Logan, according to his OWE story
and that of Thomas after the shoot
ing, had no apparent reason for TAX
ing the life of Thomas. The negro
prisoner said he had beer 'hoodooed'
by Thomas and that he had been told
by negro "hoodoo' doctors that he
could never regain his health so long
as Thomas held g spell over him. Al
ter beirs told this Logan says he
made up his mind to kill Thomas on
sight. He saw, him going TO a well
for water, near their homes, and al
ter telling him he had him now he
fired three shots at him, one OF which
took effect. Thomas, when told thst
his work was not a success at first
told the deputy sheriff that he hoped
Thomas would die as that was what
he wanted to do-kill him.
