SEARCH FOR OIL.
FIND LEAD AND SILVER.

In the search for oil on Reel
foot Lake, prospectors have
struck vein Of lead and silver
ore. This should not prove a
very bitter disappointment as the
ore assays rs per cent lead and
l2.25 percent silver to the ton.
The company behind this enter
prise is said to be wealthy and
experienced, and is asking no
financial aid. As far back as %
years or more samples OF float
lead and silver ore have been
found in this vicinity, and several
years ago Levi Rains, who owned
a large acreage of land in that
section, is, said TO have discover
ed a valuable deposit Of the min
eral. He died shortly after
wards, and nothing came Of the
discovery, as its whereabouts was
not revealed by him. He kept
in his front yard about 500
pounds of the ore TO show to his
friends.
The prospecton propose 10
spend $4,000 in sinking wells
in their search for oil. In the
event either oil or lead are found
in paying quantities, it means
much TO this immediate vicinity.
Oil and lead make. fortunes GOV

in municipal development. Be-
fore snow flies we shall know
truth about the long talked-of oil
prospects in the sunken lands of
