Cases of diphtheria under quaran

no doctor la called and no knowledgo

la suffering from a contagloua dlaeaae.
Thla, ho aaya, la the moat prolific

health officer knowi nothing of .the

Local phyalclana are aald to bo very

a nature that no phyalclan had bean

Dr. Norrla aaya, tho local practltlonara

Oil prospectors at Stone are still
In good spirits and living tn the hope
that their well will "come In" with a
whoop within a few daya. And there
la no doubt but tbt both oil and gaa
haa been reached by the drill, the
question ret to solve 4s as to whether
or not It Is In paying quantities, and
It Is no wonder the owners feel tn
line for Jubilation at this time.

a new driller; and members of the
company feel they have the right man
for the place now. Contract has been
made for the Urllllng of 1000 more feet

get a paying well. But In the mean
time the well la to be ahot. with dyna
mite, and Jt is hoped further drilling
will then be unnecessary. Tooia need

come there will be activity In Stone.

has agreed to take a third of his eon-,
tract price for additional feet to
be drilled la avt: :a the wen. He is
of opinion, that ,l i shooting the well
will bring gas or oil In quantities
or both and 1 as anxious to know '
the outcome aa any other enthusiast
