ROY GETS Big PRODUCER
In Northeast Corner of Northwest
Quarter of Northeast Quarter
of Section I5-l9.II.
Depth of Well 3o7 Feet, With Its
Flow rs Yet UnestabIished.
Oil of 7o.5 Gravity.

The expected has happened. In the
issue Of the Banner published eight
weeks ago there appeared a story
under the heading Bellevue May Get
It. which dealt with the promise Of
the discovery Of an oil pool near the
old town. And now the hopes Of the
prospectors and land owners seem
fully realized.
Among the prospectors in the Belle
vue country are Mr.. II. o. Roy and
associates, more persistent and achiev-
ing results quicker than all the others
put together, it would seem. In the
territory prospected- east and west
through the heart of township 10,
range 11-Mr. Roy, in his search for
the hidden pool Of oil, has put down
about half dozen deep wells and nine
shallow wells. 1t was one Of the
shallow wells that " brought in the
bacon The hit was made Monday
morning. The well was drilled with q
light rig, what one oil field man has
referred to as a ''watch-charm outfit, z
| and its depth Is given as only 397 feet
10 inches. It's How yet remains to be
established, because of the present lack
of storage facilities, but running wide
open for 45 minutes before 1t could be
capped Monday morning it made a
handsome showing, and those of ex
| perience In, such matters variously
state 1t is going to have daily produc
ton of from 1900 to 5000 barrels Of Oil
Some persist in saying the well will
make much in excess Of 5000 barrels
| The new well Is everywhere referred
to as wonder. Its product Is low
grade oil-perhaps about the same as
Caddo heayy-but its EXCEPTIONAL,
shallow depth is what has attractei
most attention. It is said to be ths
shallowest producer in the entir'
Southwest, with it's nearest rival il
this direction 625 feet In depth
brought In near Houston. Texas, abou
twelve years ago, and still beinI
pumped.

Caplis Case Out of Court.

A clipping from the Shreveport
Times Of the 9th reads:
The Indictment against Tom Caplis,
charged with aiding his sons, Joe and
Tom, to evade the draft law, was
quashed by Judge Jack in United
States District Court yesterday.
The petition to quash the indictment
was based on an alleged defect in the
indictment. It was claimed by the
defense, represented by Frank J.
Looney as attorney, that the onense
was not properly charged in the indict-
ment, In that no 0very act is alleged.
A demurrer and motion to quash the
| indictment against the two sons, Joe
and Tom Caplis, was denied by the
court. They will have to face trial in
| the charge Of evading military service
under the selective draft law.
The Caplis boys are alleged to have
| left the country about the time OF this
country's entry into the war and t.
have sought refuge in Central America
They were arrested when they came
across the Rio Grande River to visi1
! relatives in the United States.
