The only actual showing Of oil so
far obtained in Dickinson county.
was made by the Sinclair Stone
farm well which got nice showing
for a light well about 1000 feet.
Drilling operations are not con
fined to any section of the county

up being scattered all over Dickin-
son. Companies and individuals, IN
addition to Sinclair. which are en-
gagged in drilling are:

The play began in Dickinson
county following reports made by
M. j. Mum. well known Tulsa ge-
ologist, that the structures were
most favorable to the discovery Of
oil and the activity within the coun-
ty which has followed can well be
laid to the fact Mr.. Mum bears
high reputation and oil men of ex-
perience are willing to follow his
advice. Briefly. the geological re-
port on the county is that ii has
more and larger structures than any
other county in the state. of course
that sounds good" to the oil men,
and it does mean much. although the
fact that structures are right does
not absolutely guarantee the pres
ance of oil. However, all the dope"
points to an oil pool somewhere un-
Ter the county. ana with tests be-
ng made in widely scattered direc-
ions it seems more than likely the
liquid will be found.-perhaps with
n the next few weeks Certainly |
within the coming summer, accord
ng to the belief of the oil men on
he ground.

Dickinson county is getting the
greatest wildcat play OF any county
in the history OF oildom.' O. l..
Alcock. OF the Sinclair land de-
partment. told the writer. THAT is.
st is being played by more of the
big companies. more wildcats are
going down and higher prices are
being paid for leases than ever be-
fore in any wildcat field
That statement means much com
ing from Mr. Alcock, for there is
not an oil man in Kansas more
familiar with oil history than he
And Mr.. Alcock's knowledge is per-
sonal knowledge. too. He has been
in the oil game in Kansas ever since
the first well was drilled in the state
and as he represents the Sinclair in
terests in the Dickinson county play
he knows exactly what is going on
there. for the Sinclair people are
'.leading the bunch" in actual dril-
ling operations in Dickinson. having

BREEp THEATRE.

Thrills of the most intense deszfDtion were the order of the day yesterday when the new Metro special production. The Mutiny of the Elsinore. with an zll- star cast, was the feature attraction at the Breed theatre The picture Is schct- Hled to remain today and during this time opportunity should be oTcn for all who care to be thrilled to take In the picture and test its quality for making the chills creep up and down the spinal column.
 The Mutiny Of the Elsinore enjoys the distinction of being one of the most n- tense and gripping photodran1z Of the late Jack London's novel of Inc same name. and it possesses al of that mas ter writer's genius for portraying the conflict of strong men in the far. rough places of the earth, where the only hu | in existence Is the law of the dzt and gun.
 The story concerns John Pike. the drzt mate of the sailing shin. the Elsirore, who has signed up | motley crew or | thugs and gunmen from the water front dives of Frisco, and who once at sea finds himself piited against these hos tile forces for the mastery Of the yes- sel.
 In the role of John Pike Es Mitchell Lewis, and supporting him are Helen Ferguson, Noah Beery, Casson FeTTu con. William V. Mons. Sidney UAibrook. NorvaI MacGregor and l. P. Locknty.
 Elmo Lincoln in Elmo the Feariess- the Pathe News and Century comedy make up the remainder of the bill
