Ell Macord Oil Company, Owned BY

Kentucky Mountains.

Local oil men, owners of the El Ma
cord Oil Company, are very much
elated over reports of well on their
property which Gang in last Friday
night and which promises to produce
Oil in large quantities. Some of the
local men interested in this company
are now on the grounds, having left
Maysville Sunday morning.
The first word received here was
on Friday night when Mr.. James NJ.
Collins, local attorney and one of the
inoorporators of the company, re-
ceived a long distance telephone mes
sage from the company's field man of
the strike. At a considerable distance
the company's drill scraped the oil
sand the oil came bubbling to the sur
face and then burst forth in gushes
reaching some rs or 100 feet into the
air. Before the well could be controll-
ed fully 100 barrels had run out onto
the ground.
Drilling was to be resumed this
morning the drillers going into the oil
sand very carefully and the local men
are expecting the well to prove quite
valuable one.
Local men interested in this COM
pany which was incorporated here are

Because of the fact that the schools

throughout the state, it is thought that
the attendance of city teachers will be
considerably smaller than usual, few
of the Maysville school teachers, if
any besides the Superintendent, will
be able at attend but many country
school teachers are expected to be in
attendance and quite number of the
teachers in Mason county schools will
attend and especially the instructors
in the Mason county high schools
A very interesting and attractive

benefit of the instructors of the state
and several Mason county educators
will be on the program and serve on

OFFICERS SLIP
BY A MOB WITH
NEGRO KIDNAPER
Boyle County Mob Is Thwarted by the
Shrewdness Of Officials who Take
Negro to Lexington Jail.

Danville, KY, April 19.-That Boyle
county officials exercised good judg-
ment in removing Lucien Jenkins,
twenty-tive-year-old negro, accused of
completely in the abduction and attack
upon seven-year-old Willie Trimble
last Friday night, to the Lexington Jail
was the belief expressed freely here
Sunday.
jenkins was taken through rear
door of the court house after the lights
had been turned out and while County
Attorney Henry Jackson was voicing a
plea for the maintenance of law and
order.
Sheriff Farris and four deputies sue
ceeded in reaching a waiting automo-
bile with the prisoner, passing four
pickets placed on guard by the mob at
the exit.
Five minutes later members of the
mob succeeded in forcing the doors of
the court house and a thorough search
of the building followed The negro
unquestionably owes his life to the
fact that the mob was dsorganized.
AS the automobile carrying the
negro sped toward Lexington the mob
stormed the court house several of the
leaders openly declaring it to be
their intention to seize Jenkins and
hang him from the limb of a tree in
the court house yard.
At the hospital, it was said slight
improvement was noted in the condi-
ton of the Trimbe child but that his
condition remains serious.
Keith Phillips, siXteen-year-old
white boy, also held in connection with
the crime, continued to relate new YER
sions Of the attack. He still insists
: that negro attacked the child and
added that he now is positive that
Jenkins was the negro. When seen al
the Jail Phillips appeared to be dazed
Phillips took police to the spot
where the bucket and jar carried by
the boy at the time he was seized were
hidden. He admitted sleeping in the
barn where he boy regained con
sciousness.
Finger prints found on the buckle
and jar are expected to supply the
next clew toward establishing thu
identity of the boys assailant. Jail at
taches said Phillips reads constantly
and that his literature unquestionabl!
has been of the lurid kind.
