Texowa Company Weil Down 500
Feet.
The Texowa Oil and Gas Com-
pany, who are drilling for oii
down liear Morrill, are saying ex-
tremely little but are drilling ev-
ery day. The well, which is
known as the Blanton No. 1, is
down a little over five hundred
feet, and good indications have
been encountered that seem to |
-how oil can be obtained there in
paying quantities. It is the in-,
tention of those who have charge 1
of this well to go at least 40001
feet if it is found necessary in or-
der to get the oil if there is any
there.
Very little noise is being made j
by this company, and from what!
little can be gathered is that they j
tire not telling the people that j
t'ley are "sure" to strike oil, but
are strong enough in their belief
that they are spending their own
money in order to test it out.
There was another well drilled
•about a mile from this one about
three years ago, and it is claimed
that oil was obtained then, but
• ..so. much bad lack was had in
x Dreaking drills and losing casing
/that those interested in the ven-
ture became short of funds and
let the well go. It was stated
t that oil had been hit at about
eeventeen hundred feet, and it is
. the belief of the Texowa Compa-
ny that they will get oil at this
depth, but if not they will con-
tinue down to 4000 feet before
giving up the venture. Those
who are now backing this well
r ire financially able to carry their
plans through, and if there is oil
in this territory, they are deter-
mined to find it before they quit
drilling.—Alto Herald.

Thrift, Thrift, Horatio!
Was it a Jewish or a Scotch
father of whom it was told that,
in a strange ante mortem whim-
sy, he requested each of his
three sons to deposit $100 in the
coffin with his (the father's) body
when he died?
Anyway, each of two of the
sons dutifully fulfilled their
pledge by placing ten $10 notes
in a neat envelope above the pa-
ternal remains.
Then came the weeping third
brother, took out the two cash-
filled envelopes and dropped in
his personal check for $300.
None To Be Found.
The doctor called on a man
who was ill, and told the wife
that she must put him into a re-
cumbent position.
A what, doctor?
A recumbent position, said the
doc to r.
As soon as he had gone, she
went to a neighbor and said,
Mrs. Brown, could you lend me
a recumbent position?
But Mrs. Brown was deter-
mined not to show her ignorance,
and answered:
I'm very sorry, my dear, but
I've just lent mine to M rs Smith.

tended not to see the child and
walked past the gate without
speaking. Amazement written
on his face, Edward sprang up
from his play and ran after his
father, calling, Say, is your
name 'Daddy'?—Boston Tran-
script.
