MAY SINK new
WELL FOR OIL
Efforts to Recover Bit at
Bottom of Jefferson Well
Have Been Abandoned
NEW HOLE IS. PROPOSED
Experienced Oil Man is Con-
fident the Hob River is
Rich in Oil.

Jay d. Crazy, president of the JET
ferson Oil Co. and the crew of men
engaged in an effort to remove the
bit buried at the foot of the 865-foot
hole have returned to the city, and
the determination to sink new well
is announced.
The prospects for oil on the Jeffer-
son holdings look bright to all exper-
fenced oil men who have visited the
locality, and several offers are said
to have been received from contrac-
tors to sink a we'll on the plan of no
oil no pay. o. P. Boggs, Of Okla,
homa, a veteran oil man, returned
from the Hob river with the party, and
he is enthusiastic over the prospects
there, after spending two weeks or
the ground.
II never seen a field like it in all
my experience" said Mr.. Boggs yes
terday. coil will be found in rich
paying quantities in this district. One
dry hole ought to scare nobody. That
doesn't count Oil was never discov-
cred where there was no seepage, and
anybody that tells you that seepage
is no indication of oil noes not know
much about the oil business. If you
want to catch fish you go where
the fish are supposed to be; so with
oil.
81 do not believe it would be nee
essary to drill 1000 feet before oil
is discovered in the Jefferson COM
pany's field. think oil will be
discovered at depth of about 1900
feet and perhaps less. The first oil
bearing sand in this country is very
near the surface. There are always
two other oil-bearing sands, and
these have not yet been reached.
They might have been If the COM
pany had not met with bad luck in
the hole that will now be abandoned.
Mr.. Boggs thinks that Hob river
fields much like the oil regions of
Galicia, Austria, which have been
wonderful producers. He says that
seepages appear about the same. Mr..
Boggs also says that it would not
take much of well on the Hob
river to be a paying proposition be-
cause the oil is so rich.
The report brought back by the
crew of the Jefferson company, cou-
pied with the statements of Mr..
Boggs, has put new life and faith in
to the Jefferson company, and opera
tions. will be resumed just as soon
as practicable. The details Of NOV.
ing the rig. and awarding con.
tract for further drilling are still to
be worked out, but this will be done
at once so that as little time as pos.
sible will be lost.

A BIT OF A SHOCK
By n. M. EGBERT.

Rittenhouse looked up from his
work impatiently as the sound OF
voices came to his ears. But even an
author at work is not proof against
the merry laughter Of girls. Ritten'
house frowned, pursed his brows, and
then laid down his pen and looked out
of the window.
He had rented two rooms In littie'
old-fashioned town for the summer
months, so as to be at leisure to COM
plete the book on which he was en-
eaRed, without the distractions Of city
LIE. But those girls in the third or
fourth garden would play croquet-or
was It basket ball ?-and laugh over
their game. He could not see any
thing of their garden because Of the
row of high elm trees that intercepted
the view.
They're Judge Sanford's daughter
and niece" said Mrs. Briggs, his land
lady. You're sure to meet them be-
fore long. Everybody meets every
body here"
Rittenhouse was resolved that he
would know nobody. He was fond
enough of company, but there was the
book clamoring for his undivided at
tention.
"A hit, May! A hit" called one of
the girls.
Rittenhouse turned back from the
window and sat down. His heroine
had to be got out of a difficulty into
which her own folly had led her. 1t
was a nice problem. He was puzzled:
he frowned again and then took up
his pen. =
Swish! He sprang to his feet with
an exclamation of pain and clapped
his hand to his left shoulder. To his
amazement he found an arrow stick
ing there-a genuine arrow, with a,
feathered shaft and sharp point that
had pierced his coat and stood CULVER
ing in his shoulder. A tiny drop or
blood was oozing over the lapel.
Rittenhouse plucked it out with q
grimace and took off his coat. 1t had
made quite wound, which was bleed
ing freely the arrow had evidently
come through the open window. II

"a rich man can be Christian

ceases to be a Christian when his
money gets him."
The speaker was Secretary Bryan;
the occasion a Washington dinner.
"Old Billy Bones was a rich man."
Mr.. Bryan continued, whose money
had got him. Billy was in the lumber
trade.
"One day he was bossing a lumber
crew that was guiding a lot Of logs
down the river. Suddenly the log Billy
stood on slipped and rolled over. Billy
sank in the deep and icy water.
But young Christian plunged in
from a nearby log, and, at the risk Of
his life, saved the old man. The youth
naturally expected some reward for
this heroic feat, but Billy only nodded
a gruff Thank you and went his way.

by some malevolent power, had passed
through the elm branches and found
its billet in his shoulder.
"Well, May certainly has made
hit" muttered Rittenhouse.
His first impulse was to break the
thing in two and throw it away, but
on second thoughts he put it in
drawer of his desk. That incident
ended his work for the morning. BY
the time he had washed his wound his
shoulder was stiffening and paining
him a. good deal.
AS fate willed it, that was the day
he was to meet the Judge and his
family. Rittenhouse was on his way
back from the post Office when he ran
into Mrs. Briggs, who was standing
beside the Judges buggy, in which the
Judge sat, and the two girls.
"Mr. Rittenhouse!" she called, and
Rittenhouse crossed the street unwill-
ingly.
Judge Sanford, this is Mr.. Ritten-
house, about whom l was speaking to
you," she said. Miss May, let me
present Mr.. Rittenhouse. Miss Olive

Mays eyes he suddenly decided that
he was not so much averse from
feminine society as he supposed.
He left her, in fact, with a certain
fluttering of the heart which he had
hitherto supposed existed only IN
books, and with some new and real
istic ideas for his love passages.
That was the beginning OF an ac-
quaintance which played havoc with
his work. Days sped into weeks. and
