evening. Public Service Commission
er James Alcorn lays down this rule:
1T may be impossible to provide
a seat at all times for all of the
passengers. but the respondent
should put on enough cars in the
early morning and in the evening
to accommodate the workmen." The
decision was given in a case which
raised questions as to the fairness
of an increase of rates and attacked
the service. A stipulation was filed
after a statement as to operating
costs on the line between the two
points and also that material prices
had increased from SS to 500 per
cent, which resulted in the fare in
crease being upheld.
The commission finds that better
service can be provided and in addi-
ton to ordering an extra car orders
that the company stop taking two
tickets from passengers from Leba-
non to Palmyra, who have to change
cars at Annville. "A passenger de-
string to go to Palmyra should board
a Palmyra car. If there is room. IF
the company fails to provide accom-
modations for the people going to
Palmyra it should not take UP two
tickets when they are compelled to
board an Annville car" says the re-
port.

streams and bodies of water which
will be stocked for the first time in

assured of the assistance of many
fishermen in the distribution.

OIL AND GAS NEWS OF
THE ARDMORE FIELDS

'er of this city, ana has been in and near
Brownwood for several weeks looking
over the situation. He and Mr.. Beavers
now control between 5000 and 5000
acres in the river section, and have
made arrangements for thoroughly test
ing it, They brought in a shallow well
at 392 feet Saturday, with splendid
sand. They state that it is producer
worth while. This well is located about
600 yards northeast Of the old well
which was drilled in that section fifteen
or more years ago. A second location
which will be drilled this week has been
made by Gather & Beavers about 800
yards northeast of the well completed
Saturday. This well will be drilled as
deep at 1000 feet if the indications
found in it are satisfactory.
Construction of an S4-foot derrick for
the Texas CO., just across the river
from the Gather & Beavers leases, in
McCulloch County, is progressing as
rapidly as the weather will permit, and
is about half completed. This well is to
be a 3-500foot test. Hunter & Sells
plan a 2,000-foot test in this same
neighborhood, and Dan Hammonds and
associates will drill several deep tests
mile northwest Of this point,
Contracts have been signed and all
arrangements made for five deep wells
in this section and work on all of
them viii be under way before the
irst Of July.
A. II. Richardson brought in his No.
well on the Westcott place. The sand
was struck at 230 feet and l9 feet Of
sand was found. The well has an esti-
mated production Of from thirty to forty
barrels a day, and is considered one Of
the best wells so far brought in in the
shallow field. Mr. Richardson has
bought considerable acreage in the coun-
ty most Of his holdings being north and
west OF Brownwood. Mr. Richardson's
well is close to the well brought in on
the same tract by W. NJ Robertson.
The coal oil content Of the BrownvUod
petroleum is given as about Is per cent.
Heavy distillate or gas oil shows about
lG per cent Tho wax distillate or par.
.affin is about 30 per cent. Fuel oil
is about 16 per cent.
