EXPECT GUSHER
NEAR W|GWAM

A gusher we'll of oil is confidently
expected by the people residing in the
Wigwam neighborhood. 20 miles due
north OF Pueblo.
Residents of that locality in the city
yesterday stated that the drill has Just
passed thru a heavy deposit of oil sand
and Is now in the hard substance
which the geologists say Is the cap
over the big deposit of the rich brown
fluid.
Notices of mo Admittance" have
has been given out. but the drill Is
| pounding down with hopeful deter
| mination.
In the sand it is known a consider
able amount Of oil was found, and oil
| has come into the well from several
! fissures encountered in the rock Just
entered.
Every formation passed thru so far
has been just as the biologists said
it would be. The well, as near as can
be learned. is now about 200 feet
deep.
The size of the hole and the casing
of course, and the capacity of the ma
chinery, is good for depth of L60O
feet.
The wigwam Oil & Gas company,
abundantly financed. 1t has had the
hardest kind Of luck in the past. On
one occasion the tools were lost and
three thousand pounds of drills and
cable went to the bottom. A hundred
and one days passed before the well
was in shape to resume. Every mag
Unable appliance for rcscuing the string
was adopted and finally all but 30 in
ches of the steel point was gotten out
of the way. This was actually chewed
up by the latest form of drill and came
out in particles as fine as sand.

impossible to renew lease on land
in that locality.
