DEEPEST OIL WELL
IN old KENTUCKY
Of Interest Here as Local People
Have Holdings Close To 1t
In Laurel County

A number of local people who have
interests in coal and oil lands in
Laurel county were greatly interested
to learn of what is said to have been
the outstanding feature of last weeks
petroleum operations in the Kentucky
field, strike at Hazel Patch,
Laurel County, ut 3,0S0 feet, drilled
by Cowden and associates. This is
the deepest oil strike of which there
is any record in Kentucky. At 3,070
feet, according to reports from that
section, the drill penetrated the cap
rock and passed into what is claimed
to be the oil formation.
Upon running the tools the first
bailer brought out a dark green oil
which showed 100 feet on the cable.
On attempting to run the bailer in
second time the receptacle was lost in
the hole and further test of produc.
ton will have to await fishing job.
From all appearances the well will
be a good producer. No gas was
found in the sand, which was barely
entered by the drill. This wildcat"
test has been drilling for several
months. At 1900 feet showing Of
oil was found in sand regarded as
the Irvine formation The drillers
hope to recover the bailer during the
week and give the strike an adequate
test.
If production comes up to cxpecta-
tions the opening of this deep sand
will have widespread effect or
developments. The Wild Cat Noun
tain Coal Company, the principal
stockholders of which live in Rich
mond have large holdings close to the
above mentioned territory and other
Madison men have interests in Laurel
county, all of which will be most
favorably affected by the proving of
that territory as profitable for deep
oil production.

PAIR OF GOOD MULES
CAUSE TROUBLE
FOR OWNER
Especial to the Tribune)

BALTIMORE, Nd, Dec. 17.-Word
has reached this city of the action of
mob in Texas which urged a colored
minister to sell pair of mules owned
by him, hut which he refused to sell
because they were not only the best
mules in the neighborhood, but he
needed them in his work.
The mob then burned his barn and
house and drove his family out of the
county. The minister took them into
Oklahoma, where in a short time he
was visited by a Ku-Klux crowd at
night and told that a check had been
forged in his name in the local bank
by one of the local young white men.
but that he would do we'll not to say
anything about it. He was obliged to
stand the loss of the money.
The man had son in the army in
France fighting, perhaps in the place
of the very white men who were in
the mob, and for the country which
confessed its laws powerless to help
him and his kind.
Today there has come the story of
dastardly outrage in Caldwell, Ca,
where a mob cut out the tongue and
otherwise MANNED a colored planter
named Cooper, who refused to self
his cotton to them at lower price
than that of the general market. Not
satisfied with this crime, they placed
the body in the neighboring church,
of which he was an official, and
burned the church and the body.
Things did not rest here. but the
mob searched out neighboring col
ored planter, j. A. Steele, who was a
friend and sympathizer with the vic
tim, and ordered him to leave the
neighborhood in twenty-four hours.
This man passed through Washing
ton last Monday morning with his five
small children and wife, having left
behind him his sixty acres of land
and his home and property in general
