It seem that the men who were In charge for a time finally got a piece of rasing fast In the bot tom of the well and in an effort to fish It out succeeded It battering It bo that It 1 now Impossible to get a bold on It and pull It out of the well. This piece of .casing I In such a position that It must be drawn or the well abandoned as It I Impossible to get around It. The question of getting It out I about given up, and If that 1 the decision of the company then tbe workmen will draw all the casing pos sible and abandon the hole. Hut If this bole I abandoned It doe not mean that the oil project will be abandoned. Thl la not tho intention of the prospector. At thl time there are two parties bidding on tbe propo sition of putting a second well down to a depth of 1200 feet, If necessary, and the company I taking figure and will let the contract in a few day. The blast nut Into tbe well several weeks ago seems to have loosened the earth bo much that It gathers about the casing and wedge itsolt aicaltist It and delays work bo, that It Is Impossible to go further In this hc-le and a new start must be made. The owner feel that Inasmuch as tney have found both gas and oil at the preaent alte It la wise to continue their work at that point ana me con tract for a new well will stipulate that It I to be put down to a depth of 1200 foot If necessary and that within CO days. The members of the company are still very enthusiastic and aay that tbe oil and gas so secured show con clusively that there ara both gas and oil In this location and the only ques tion Is aa to whether or not It Is there In paying quantities. Plana are being made so that when the drill Is started a second time the work may be rushed to the oil bearing rock In record time. RESPECTED CITIZEN CALLED FROM EARTH MRS.
