LAID Off TOWN BY

Drumright City Blocks Are
Twice as Long as Other
Towns.

DRUMRIGHT, June 5-The very
cause of Drumrights existence has be
come somewhat Of a hindrance to the
Improvement of the town in the way
of appearance When the first rag
top" dwelling was stretched in Drum
right, it was under the shade of a
derrick The driller made his resi-
dence a convenient distance from his
work Now the derricks are very no
tlCeably I'm the way of opening streets.
one Of the first things stranger
notices about the town is that the
blocks are exactly twice as long one
way as the other This Is because the
wells were made placed derrick in
the middle of every second street
In Layton Sand Only.
The greater part of the wells inside
the tOwnstc are still producing and
promise TO continue to produce. Some
Of them are only sunk to the Layton
sand, and viii probably be drilled
deeper should the production fall off
until they did not pay Drumrights
streets will possibly always be Just
half as far apart as the avenues In
some places substantial business
buildings stand ON the ground which
would be made street were il not for
a nearby derrick. The waste from
these uptown wells keeps black oil
running i'm every gutter and the flow
i'm the newly built sewers is thought
TO be 10 per cent petroleum.

AFTER EXCITEMENT
DIES OIL MEN QUIT
Young Man Takes the Place
Of the Old After For
tune Smiles.

Special to The World.
pEMETA, Okla, June Scan the
thousands of men closely who work
IN the oil field, stand by a prominent
crossroads and watch them go by,
and one can not help but notice that
there are very few old men among
them As a rule. they are "husky
sturdy young fellows each one ready
for fight or a frolc and ready also
to accomplish whatever work may
be assigned to him for the day 1t is
only once in a while that gray hairs
are seen among the wOrkmen.-
This has always been the case, aC-
cording to Jud Hoskins, an oil field
worker since his early youth He
started back in Pennsylvania over
thirty years ago and there-have been
but few fields that he has not Wis
tied and worked in. The men as they
grow older in the work drop out to
let the harness fall upon younger
shoulders. while the old fellows find
a uuieter life if possible. As a rule
these men play the game fast while
they are young They like the out
of-door labor, hard though it may be-
and they follow from one field to the
other. the same as the producer who
PLAYS the different fields as they are
discovered.

IS so heavy that the men drop out Of

Hoskins. Everywhere | have been,

young fellows with plenty of neck
and shoulders. | have watched many
of them grow old and drop by the
wayside. finding lighter employment
in a quieter place than the oil field.
After a time too. the boys marry;
they are few who escape the altar
somewhere along the line, and this
fact also makes them locate quieter
place to live as they begin to pass
TO the shady side.

Special 20 The World
pRJMRIGHT, June 5-ht the in
stigatiOu Of the commercial club and
the insurance concerns represented In
Drumright, am ordinance restricting
the character Of buildings 10 bc
erected iu the business district will
likely be passed at the next meeting
Of the town council.
Persons concerned mean the ordin-
ance TO discourage the building OF
any Eind Of business houses except
brick and stone and prohibit the cree
ticn Of frame buildings altogether
unless they have fire walls At irregu-
lar distances along Broadway but in
a radius Of one block. between Ohio
and Pennsylvania avenues. seven new
brick or stone buildings have been
built in the past two months Be
tween these houses the frame build
irgs erected years ago, and almost
ready TO be pushed over. still stand.
Although the stone and brick struc-
lures add greatly to the value OF the
property and appearance of the town.
the adjacent frames hold the insur-
ance rate about as 1t was before
Much Gas Escapes.
The quantity of gas i'm the atmos-
phere IN and about town and the in
ferior sort Of piping done to convey
the gas to the buildings when the
town was first started, permitting gas
to escape in thousands Of unexpected
places, makes fire probable at any
time. The only way to regulate the
matter while the character Of plumb
ing is being improved Is to erect fire
proof buildings. Building such struc-
lures Is popular but could not be
made n unanimous movement without
an ordinance to support it. Drumright
Is the first oil field town to provide
tself with such a protective law.
