an abrupt stop Monday with the first outburst of oil from the gusher. Everyone is sit ting tight. It was expected however, that with the wear ing off the first excitement, trading would be brisk and that soeonme would make a mint of money.
 Dr. Busey is living there 3 the Arcaoe Hotel, and his phenomenal luck as an oil man brings to mind the fact that when he went there some time go he bought the Arcade Hotel, for the very good req son that he could rent no suitable place to live, and in- stalled his family there.
 The town of El Dorado re- minded us of Searcy. The court house square is in the heart of the town and the country is hilly and of a red sandy soil with no rocks.
 When we arrived at the station we could hear the roar of the gusher which sounds as if locomotive was popping off" about a block away and it was a mile and a half to the oil we'll.
 We were allowed to go within quarter of a mile, or less, of the gusher and the terrific force with which the gas, oil, sand and water was sent from the bowels of the earth 150 feet in the air caused roaring noise equal to ten large boilers blowing out their mud valves. One could hardly understand an- other speaking in loudest tones.

MISSIONARY SOCIETY

The Woman's Missionary Society met last Thursday with Mrs. J. P. Taylor. A very interesting program was ren- dered, each topic being made more interesting from the fact of it being told and not read. May we keep this as an example throughout the year. The solo by Mrs. Wherry and reading given by Mrs. Scales, were very much enjoyed. Delicious refresh ments were served by the hostess. Our meeting next week, Feb. 3rd, will be with Mrs. John Shearer which will be Mission Study, chapter six, "The Golden Whirlpool.

 scouts, prospectors and sight. seers had arrived from Shreveport and other specia trains were said to be on the way. Before the day way over thousands had visited the we'll.
 The Busey-Daniels well came in at 2,223 feet, and one thing that markes it's owners and the oil men believe it will be a wonderfully rich we'll is the fact, so stated, that the stratum of oil-producing sand from which the flow is now coming is 45 feet in thickness nearly twice as thick as the stratum in the Constantin we'll, a mile and a half south, Throughout Sunday the oil was flowing from the high land around the we'll in two direc- tions. One stream was said to be so wide that a man could not jump across it and in the opposite direction an even wider stream of the fluid was making it's way into a ravine, where men were at work dammning it up.
 The lay of the land around the we'll is such that by dam ming, an immense reservoir has been formed.
 The gusher is in 31-17-15, a mile and a half west of the center of Ell Dorado. To Chal Daniels, the driller and Dr. s. T. Busey seems to be due most of the credit for bring ing in the we'll, which had practically been abandoned by the Mitchell-Bonham Com pany after two attempts had failed.
 The Mitchell-Bonham Com pany, it is said, had put down two holes, both of which were failures. When the third we'll was about half way down, they ran out of capital and lost heart. Then Busey and Daniels came along and bought, so it is stated, 51 per cent of the stock of the wei This they sold in part, and in small lots, to Ell Dorado peo- pie and with the capital thus raised, started drilling.
 It. is understood there that the Mitchell-Bonham Com pany still owns a 49 per cent interest in the we'll and that the balance is owned largely by Busey and Daniels and El dorado people. Ell Dorado therefore, through some of it's citizens, is a direct bene- ficiary of the we'll.
 1t was only last week that Daniels took charge of the drilling and rapid progress was made. Dr. Busey came there from somewhere in the East. The we'll is on what is known as the Armstrong tract. It is said Dr. Busey paid $10,000 for the lease of the 80-cre tract on which the we'll is located.
